Wolverine: 2007

Marvel must be getting busy for 2007 with at least 4 comic book movies due out at minimum (Ghost Rider, Spider-Man 3, Fantastic Four 2: The Next Chapter, and now Wolverine)

The Hollywood Reporter has more on this.

20th Century Fox promised the gathered exhibitors a Jackman starrer titled Wolverine for next year and Jackman himself sent the show a taped promise to back up the news.

By the way, check out these pics of Superman's signal at Niagara Falls!

Anyway, for the next year, the big talk will be Spider-Man 3. At the least, Marvel will be kept busy with movies coming out with the rate of one per fiscal quarter.

Kos on the campaign bloggers:

Evan Bayh has Chris Smith who I met during the book tour and seemed like a really cool guy. And his operation is aggressively blogging and wooing bloggers.

I've never met the guy but from his work over at AAPAC, he sure sounds like a cool guy.

The 2008 candidates are getting busy in Iowa.

Former Vilsack administration policy adviser Dusky Terry and Heather Matson, who ran Terry's losing primary bid for Iowa agriculture secretary this year, have joined Heartland PAC in Iowa, said the organization's Iowa political director Jeff Link.

The only other Democrat eyeing the 2008 presidential nomination with staff in Iowa is Indiana Sen. Evan Bayh. The Midwestern political director for Bayh's political action committee spends most of his time in Iowa, aides said. But Bayh's All America PAC is planning to train about 50 staff to dispatch across the country this fall.

"A good number are likely to end up in Iowa," Bayh spokesman Dan Pfeifer said.

Unfortunately, that's all I have for right now other than Ebert must really be insane for giving Superman Returns a bad review. Of course, he's the same guy that liked Batman and Robin!
