Between superhero movies, the upcoming revival of the Star Wars franchise and the preponderance of YA science fiction novel adaptations like Divergent and The Maze Runner headed to theaters over the next few years, the sci-fi genre is going to be pretty well served in the immediate future. Not to be left out, the rebooted Star Trek universe is also returning in 2016 with Star Trek 3 , which will be directed by Justin Lin ( Fast & Furious
Though Obi-Wan's ghost already played a role in the original trilogy (embodied by the late, great Sir Alec Guinness), as L-R correctly points out, Hayden Christensen was CGI-surgically implemented into George Lucas' redux of Return of the Jedi in replacement of original Human-Vader actor, Sebastian Shaw. In that sense, McGregor's slot in franchise is pretty secure, should the filmmakers choose to go in that direction. After all, for a younger generation of fans, McGregor IS Obi-
Director Terry Gilliam is known for his offbeat visions of the future, with 12 Monkeys focused on a single prisoner, sent into the past to help scientists cure a worldwide plague that killed billions.

He fails when airport security shoots him dead in front of his younger self. The boy watches as the plane takes off, setting into motion billions of deaths, and closing the endless time loop the way it be
When Pixar was made an official branch of Walt Disney Animation, the tradition of Easter Eggs and cameos was just one thing both studios could agree on - even if it made no sense to the story being told. It's strange enough that among the wooden carvings being sold by the Witch in Brave is the same Pizza Planet delivery truck included in every Pixar film. But the image of Sully, the furry star of the wildly successful Monsters, Inc. shows that even witches need to worry about what's hiding in their clo

But, Disney and Pixar take the inclusion of easter eggs and hidden details to another level.

It makes sense that Paramount would try to rein in the budget of Star Trek 3 where possible; anything that cuts down the costs of such an effects-heavy movie is no doubt an attractive prosp
Total Recall is a simple enough story: an everyday Earthling in the not-too-distant future, Douglas Quaid, dreams of a passionate affair with a beautiful woman on the surface of Mars. So when a business offers to implant false memories for a price, Quaid decides to make his dream a reality – at least as far as his mind is concerned.
