One more note of interest from the WIZARD WORLD CON in Chicago. The upcoming movie SLEEPY HOLLOW, due in theaters this Thanksgiving, is having figures created by McFarlane toys. McFarlane toys are responsible for the ultra-cool Austin Powers figures that came out this Summer. The SLEEPY HOLLOW figures that I saw were "two-ups" or the figures were twice the scale as the final production ones.

The "Headless Horseman" figure, who's supposed to be played by Christopher Walken, comes with a multitude of extra heads. Although one of the heads seems to be that of Walken, I was unable to identify the rest.

I've found one more little tidbit about the upcoming movie MISSION TO MARS in the July 1999 issue of CINEFEX magazine. DREAM QUEST IMAGES, the geniuses behind last Summers hit movie Armageddon and this Summer's Inspector Gadget, are handling some of the effects for MISSION TO MARS.

Be sure to check out my review of the script for the movie MISSION TO MARS.

Read the review of the script for the upcoming movie A MISSION TO MARS.
 
 

More reports have come out of the WIZARD WORLD convention that the DOC SAVAGE movie is more and more of a sure thing. The owner of Graffiti Designs has said that since the movie has the writer of the SEASHANK REDEMPTION at the helm of the script it's almost guaranteed that the movie will see film. He also said that he was interested in producing more DOC SAVAGE merchandise, he had already produced everything from bronze statues to T-shirts that tied into the character.

Also, a source at the PULP CON said that before Arnold Schwarzenegger was attached to play the role of DOC, RIDLEY SCOTT's production company had expressed an interest in reviving the character for the big screen. It seems that his deal fell through some time ago paving the way for this latest incarnation of the MAN OF BRONZE.

 
 

The latest figures for the Summer movies are in and the film in the number one position is of no surprise.
