Found in: Games, NewsHasbro, Gore Verbinski to remake Clue
Hasbro's at it again, with another project aiding its quest to flood the box office with board-game movies. (You might say they have a Monopoly on that particular market. Zing!) This time it's with Clue, which is actually a remake. (You might recall a little film from 1985 with a buxom french maid and Tim Curry's horrific smile. Here's a quick refresher.)... read more

Universal and Gore Verbinski (Pirates of the Caribbean)will be making a film adaptation of the acclaimed video game, set for release likely sometime in 2010. Bioshock takes place in an Ayn Rand-based dystopia, with the player going deeper into its society and learning about how messed up things get.
