The Hunter’s servants held the dark green gem,
They worshiped it as the Hunter’s Eye,
A Helm of silver-white was forged by them,
And a prophecy that murderers would one day die,
Upon the brow of Hunter’s Helm was set the Eye,
Wars and battles were fought by elves and men,
And the Eye was deemed too powerful for the open sky,
Tombs were built within the Deep, the Eye was carried to one of ten,
And there, buried for many years it shall remain,
Until the day its power, the Hunter’s Son shall gain.

I'm looking forward to The Dukes of Hazzard, Zorro, and of course, the Chronicles of Narnia.

Did you know that Narnia will use ILM for visual effects, so we will get a showdown between Weta (Kong) and ILM (Narnia) on Oscar night. Of course, Weta Workshop is doing special effects (non-digital) for both films, but we'll get a good showdown next february for digital effects at least.

Any other intensive visual effect movie that might compete (I'm guessing War of the Worlds). I would be surprised if Potter shows up.

Wow, there's a lot of historical movies coming. It's great that ancient history/action/epic movies are "in" now - even if the films mangle real history here and there :D

Hmm - I wasn't aware that ILM was doing Chronicles of Narnia. (I thought Weta was doing all the effects) Interesting... really looking forward to that film!

Minotaur is some sort of retelling of the Theseus myth sans the literary hero and a monster. Has something to do with Minoan soldiers wearing horned helmets and a bull-king or something :) Sounds kind of like 13th Warrior in a way :D

Forgot about the 300 :D Don't know how I feel about that though, I'd much rather have a Gates of Fire movie be made rather then history according to Frank Miller (y)

About the blurb... not happening, the only research I'll do is trailer and release dates. If you want blurbs though, just search for the movie at www.imdb.com.

I need the list to be a bit simple and easy to keep track of :D

I'll add the other suggestions soon.

Zorro's trailer makes the movie look pretty poor, IMHO.

I don't know, it doesn't seem that bad... But it doesn't really sell the movie (other than say, hey remember that cool Zorro movie, we have a sequel coming).

Got another couple of sword movies for you:

The Northmen (2006) - Has Vikings so it has to have a sword fight, even if it is a bit of a romance/drama. Can't have Vikings without at least one duel :D

The Pathfinder (2007) - Another Viking story with Skraelings vs my ancestors :D Well, okay 25% of my genetic ancestry is Swedish :D
