Can't remember if I posted these before or if others did, but I didn't see anything right off the bat:
Evil Dead movie Remake coming!
http://www.moviesonline.ca/movienews_1828.html
"According to Variety, director Sam Raimi and original producing partners Rob Tapert and Bruce Campbell are reteaming to produce a remake of the cult hit "The Evil Dead" through Ghost House Pictures and Senator International.
The remake will not be directed by Sam Raimi, so Ghost House is looking for a helmer to reinvent the franchisebefore a script is written. It also has not been said if Bruce Campbell will reprise his role as Ash, or if a new actor will be casted."

Mad Max 4: Fury Road Confirmed, Budget of $100 Million!
http://www.firstshowing.net/2009/10/24/mad-max-4-fury-road-confirmed-budget-of-100-million/
"This is the weekend that Mad Max is making its return. Yesterday morning a rumor hit saying that Charlize Theron and Tom Hardy were director George Miller's top choices to star in Mad Max 4. Later in the day, THR published a story confirming that Mad Max 4, now officially titled Fury Road, was actually already ready to go into production in Sydney and in New South Wales next year. They did not confirm any of the actors, but did mention that the budget would be close to $100 million, despite having no studio funding or backing for the project. That is some impressive indie financing. Obviously the locals rule in Australia."
Thoughts on either? At least Mad Max 4 sounds like it's going to be a continuation, rather then a remake.
