When Disney got sucked into CG animation with the rest of the studios, it was looking like the death of hand-drawn stories. Aside from Studio Ghibli, everyone had all but abandoned this beautiful art-form. But lo, even in the wake of Avatar 3-D, hand-drawing has been resurrected by Disney with this joyous New Orleans Jazz fest. Hurrah!

Zack Snyder's Watchmen, love it or hate it, was a successful movie. It busted those blocks with financial precision. Now, since that caused Alan Moore's graphic novel to rocket to the top of the best-seller list, DC is considering making a sequel. Watchmen 2.

Paul Levitz, head of DC, always stuck by Moore's seminal work, stating that it should be left as is: that, as comic book blog Bleeding Cool puts it, "the comic is the comic is the comic". But they have now reported that, with Levitz having stepped down, DC's Senior Vice President, Dan DiDio, is keen on expanding the Watchmen universe.

Will Dave Gibbons be convinced to step in for more books, artwork and, eventually, movies? Will Alan Moore's vision, now disowned by him since it got the Hollywood treatment, be even further tainted? After all, the reason the graphic novel (and the faithful, if shallow, film) remains so good is that it's been unmolested for 20 years.

All that just might change. For the worse. It's not hard to see why they want to chase the money down the shithole, especially with such fasinating characters as Rorschach. Perhaps a spin-off just for him. In which he dons his mask, picks up a can of deodorant, and torches DC's offices. Something like that.

Terrence Malick is lining up his next film; a momentous occasion in the film industry calendar, given that he tends to spend 10 years on one before he's happy with it. But this is even more momentous, because (as far as the world is aware) he's still working on Tree of Life, which stars Brad Pitt and Sean Penn.

Still, Deadline Hollywood has reported that Terrence Malick has found romance. With Christian Bale, Rachel McAdams, Javier Bardem and Olga Kurylenko. Not a bad collection if you're looking for true love. He's bringing with him some of the team from Tree of Life and shooting is set for this autumn.

Things are moving quickly, which is strange for Malick. But, as we all expect, not a word has been said about the plot. But you hear that tiny, quiet buzz? That's the excitement only Malick can generate.

We all remember Amy Adams and her singing, dancing rats and cockroaches. Not to mention James Marsden's wonderfully dumb Prince Charming and the dreamy Mr Dempsey. And now The House of Mouse are looking at a sequel, with Anne Fletcher at the helm. But don't worry: she directed The Proposal. So this will clearly be good...

Another mash up of animation and real-life, perhaps this time in reverse? Who knows? I just really don't want this to happen. First Miramax, now this? Disney's new decade is doubtful at best.

It's official: Sony have found The Lost Symbol. Not that it was hard to find - it was sitting on their desk all along. Ever since Dan Brown's book came out, it's only been a question of when the studio would start writing it for the screen.

And so Steven Knight (of Dirty Pretty Things) is on script duty, adapting the third outing for Robert Langdon - sure, Angels and Demons only took $486 million compared to The Da Vinci Code's $760m odd, but that's still enough money to cover Tom Hanks' haircut. Presuming they can convince him to sign on again. Then it's just a case of getting hold of Ron Howard. That shouldn't be too hard.

Two weeks, people. That's what Joe Johnston has confirmed. On the rounds for Wolfman, Johnston told Sci-Fi Wire that the super-solider would be definitely cast within the next two weeks and that we should expect an announcement.

He said: "We have a very short list, but we're still juggling actors here. I'd say within the next couple of weeks we'll have ourselves a Captain America, I hope."

So who should play the strong American? It better not be Sam Worthington. Aaron Eckhart's a popular favourite - he certainly has the muscles down pat - but with all the Oscar buzz floating around at the moment, I'd like to pop one name in there: Jeremy. Renner. Bet that won't happen...
