Just when you thought the latest 'Friday the 13th' reboot news had beaten a dead horse into dust, TV is hockey-masking up for a few shots, as well. 'Friday the 13th' is officially moving forward with a new hourlong TV series set across "multiple time periods," with 'Terminator' and 'Avatar' writers on board to bring Jason Voorhees to life once more.
Too often Hollywood wants to remake perfect movies. When they redo films like 'Halloween' or 'Pyscho' the quality level has virtually only one place to go.

For the last couple years we've seen almost all of the classic horror films of the 1970's and 80's get the remake treatment. 'Gremlins' was one of the rare holdouts, but it looks like its defenses are failing as the latest rumors suggest we may get a new 'Gremlins' film.
'Safety Not Guaranteed' director Colin Trevorrow was being buzzed about recently as a possible helmer for 'Star Wars Episode 7.' He recently said he was out of the running (and we may know who the director is), but it's not like he isn't moving on to bigger things. He's now attached (with writing partner Derek Connolly) to Disney's 'Flight of the Navigator' remake.
