PATRICK LUSSIER TO DIRECT 'HALLOWEEN 3-D' IN 2011
Several media sites are reporting that Patrick Lussier has signed on to direct 'Halloween 3-D' for the Weinstein Company, on a script written by Todd Farmer. For those of you who don't know, Patrick Lussier directed the 'My Bloody Valentine' re-make (also in 3-D), and Todd Farmer is known for writing that film, as well as Jason X and The Messengers films.
The film has been pushed back to a summer 2011 release, a change from the fast track it was given for summer 2010 following the release of Rob Zombie's 'Halloween II'. It's been said by the Weinsteins that the film has been pushed back to give Todd Farmer time to get the script finished and where it should be, and allow director Patrick Lussier to finish his current film, "Drive Angry", which stars Nicolas Cage.

'HALLOWEEN II' NOW AT $32 MILLION
Despite ongoing stiff competition at the box office, Rob Zombie's 'Halloween II' has pushed its total worldwide up to $32 million. A far cry from the $58 million Rob delivered on his first 'Halloween' film, but over twice the production budget, which isn't bad at all for a sequel. If you haven't seen it yet, I suggest you do.

'HALLOWEEN III' PLANNED FOR 2011 IN 3-D
According to an L.A. Times article, the Weinstein Company is planning on continuing the Halloween franchise next summer, with 'Halloween III' in 3-D! Read the snippet of Bob Weinstein's remarks below, and get ready for more Myers (minus Rob Zombie) in 2010!
From the L.A. Times:
The investment it takes to shoot movies in digital 3-D has proved particularly lucrative for horror films. For "The Final Destination," this weekend's No. 1 movie, theaters with at least one 3-D screen earned 3.25 times as much as those that showed the movie in 2-D only, according to distributor Warner Bros. That's substantially higher than for other recent releases. The equivalent 3-D multiple for last month's "G-Force," for instance, was only 1.7 on its first weekend. For July's "Ice Age: Dawn of the Dinosaurs" it was 1.4 andm for June's "Up" it was 2.2. January horror flick "My Bloody Valentine" earned 6.4 times as much from 3-D theaters as it did from 2-D on its opening weekend.
Weinstein said Rob Zombie, who directed "Halloween II" and 2007's reboot of the 31-year-old horror series, won't return for "Halloween 3-D." He said the studio is in negotiations with a new director, whom he declined to name, who has experience in horror and has a "different take" on the franchise."
