Yep, it's on the way. And apparently it's NOT going DTV. At least not as of right now....
The skinny:
Directed by Dwight ( Free Willy 2, Halloween 4, Marked for Death, Rapid Fire, Murder at 1600) Little
Starring Johnny Messner, Morris Chestnut, Eugene Byrd, Peter Curtis, Nicholas Gonzalez and even more people you've never head of.
Sony aims to release it theatrically on 8/27.
First title: Anaconda 2: The Black Orchid
Second title: Anacondas
Third title: Anacondas: The Hunt for the Black Orchid
Fourth title: Venom (despite the fact that anacondas possess about as much venom as do Care Bears)
Fifth title: Anacondas: The Hunt for the Blood Orchid
I guess they're gonna need some last-minute ADR to turn all the "Black Orchid"s into "Blood Orchid"s, but oh well. I bet it's a schlocky retarded hoot.
Bad, schmad; I just like seeing movies where people get eaten by giant animals. Is that so wrong?

Have you heard of the even more intriguing high concept vehicle - Snakes on a Plane?
Think about it - everything you need to know about a movie all in the title.
Here is what the potential director, Ronny Yu, had to say:
Quote:
|
"It's called 'Snakes on a Plane.' The second they told me the storyline I said I want to do this movie. It's about a plane on the way from Honolulu to Los Angeles, and when they're halfway [into their flight], 500 poisonous snakes get released, and the first one to get killed is the pilot. As the audience I say, how the hell can they get out of the situation? I'd like to see it! So I said I want to do that. Hopefully we'll start shooting soon."

Genius!

Snakes on a Plane sounds interesting IMO.
Anaconda 2, well it doesn't.

Heh, I'd read that piece on Snakes on a Plane. Sounds right up my alley.
In similar news:
| In the wake of such recent undead boxoffice breakouts as "28 Days Later" and "Dawn of the Dead," Lions Gate Films is fast-tracking its own zombie picture, "Flight of the Dead," for a September start date, sources said. "Flight" follows the tale of two zombies being shipped back to their homeland after they are captured. But when the deadly creatures come unexpectedly to life aboard an airplane, the begin to wreak high-altitude havoc. |

Homeland? I've seen Zombie-ism depicted as a mystical force, as a virus, etc...but never as a nationality

I'm waiting for the "night of the undead zombie snakes on a plane" movie, myself. It won't be as good as Robert Townsends' "Attack of the Street Pimps" - but then, what movie is?

Throw in Roy Schneider, some bees, and a guy running on fire, and I'm there.

Sounds like something from the Critic to me. Kind of like Beverlyhills K9 Cop and a half...2
