No! It's not! (slams door)

Probably because there's been no follow-up.
They surprised people by revealing they'd been secretly working on it, and then it went back into silence mode because they'd been working so far under the radar didn't have a distribution deal or anything like that worked out. (word is that it wasn't supposed to be an…

You know, Ash meeting Reggie would kind of be like running into your old high-school buddy who never got his act together.
… for BOTH of them.

Apparently, the whole source of the sequel problems was that Joe Lansdale had referred to a follow-up story called BUBBA-NOSFERATU… but had never actually written one, because he only had a vague idea (Elvis fights vampires while working on his 1968 "Comeback Special".)

There's a FREDDY VS. JASON VS. ASH comic book miniseries that is reportedly based on the ideas they had for the unmade movie.

Zack Snyder would have HIS Batman label everything, too… but, knowing Zack, it would end up like WATCHMEN, where Ozymandius has secret files on his computer entitled "BOYS".

(little bit of ISLAND OF LOST SOULS in there too, of course)

I've always envisioned THE DROWNED WORLD as an Orson Welles film; sort of a cross between his nightmarish noirs and (weird as this sounds) the Skull Island scenes of KING KONG- no monsters, but with a setting evoking that hyper-stylized jungle mood.

Cronenberg openly acknowledges the influence; in fact, he's gone so far as to admit that he considered writing SHIVERS as a novel, but felt that without taking advantage of the differences between the two mediums, it would have come off as a pale imitation.

Well, they did that during the Brosnan years, and it was pretty hit-or-miss. (Some would say the same about QOS).

" Who watches this shit?"

True, but there's also shows like MIAMI VICE, where Michael Mann didn't even create the characters, direct a single episode, or write a complete script by himself… and yet, you won't find a single person involved in that show that doesn't refer to him as the driving force (and, like Groening, the quality noticibly…

Well, Jed himself was sort of the POV character (or at least the voice of reason).
But still, valid point.

You could say that about James L. Brooks too, and yet everyone on the show will tell you how important HE was in the early years, too.
The most important thing a tv producer does is say "yes" or "no" to other people's ideas.

``man-eating vaginas ``

…. okay, that was a bad design decision.
But the scrollwork on the frame was TOP QUALITY.

Hey, at least Kong WINS his monster fights. YOU, on the other hand… http://i.kinja-img.com/gawk…

I once saw a toilet training film called FLUSHING. I say it counts.

This better feature at least a cameo from Atomic Robo.

It's fascinating that Arnold's pitch for renewable resources is "What are you, dummies? This is where the money is!"… which is actually old news, but cons won't believe it until one of their own says it.
