Here Comes That Planet Of The Apes Prequel You Never Asked For
Do you find that Planet Of The Apes, its four movie sequels, movie remake, TV series, cartoon show and books haven't left you satisfied? Do you often get irritated because, even though you could literally drown in all the different versions of Planet Of The Apes that have been made over the years, nobody's ever bothered to tell you what happened on the planet almost 2,000 years before the events of the original movie? If you do, we have two pieces of advice for you - 1) hold onto your hat, because Fox is apparently very close to starting production on that exact Planet Of The Apes prequel, entitled Genesis: Apes, set 1,969 years before the original movie, and 2) stop wasting your life, you friendless nincompoop.
JK Rowling Bashes Out New Harry Potter Story
It must have been such a relief for JK Rowling when she finished the last Harry Potter book, because it meant she could focus on what's really important to her - which, it turns out, is Harry Potter. Not content with the book of Harry Potter fairy tales she recently wrote, or the Harry Potter encyclopedia she's working on now, JK Rowling has found the time to write a prequel to the Harry Potter books, set before Harry first went to Hogwarts. However, there's only one copy of this 800-word Harry Potter prequel and it's going to be auctioned for charity, so hardly anyone will be able to read it. But the rest of you shouldn't worry - give it a year and Warner Bros will have bought the rights and padded it out into a brand new nine-hour movie trilogy. In space.
