Just a few days ago it was announced that X-Men director Bryan Singer is at work on a thoroughly unnecessary upcoming Battlestar Galactica reboot. Now word comes that he is also planning not just an Excalibur remake, but a new take on Jack the Giant Killer as well. Jeez, some days it seems like every single movie released in 2010 is going to be a remake of something from my childhood.
Well, who knows, maybe Singer will make something worthwhile out of Excalibur. But when it comes to Jack the Giant Killer, he'll have a devil of a time trying to improve on cinematic greatness like this two-headed giant vs. sea monster vs. dog vs. chimp fight. (God, this movie is a ridiculous gem.)
