Sadly, it seesm to be easier to rework an idea (even a failed one) then to take the risk of developing something new. That's not entirely true -- Pirates of the Carribean was certainly new, but I expect both a sequel and other movies based on rides. Or at least titled from them.
Tim Burton has Charlie & The Chocolate Factory in the works, presumably a non-musical version of the Roald Dahl book. Johhny Depp has been cast, I assume, as Wonka.
After (arguably) two awful Batman films and two passable ones (I didn't care for the first; I liked the second), they're at it again. The ingeniously titled Batman 5 will be directed by Christopher (Memento) Nolan and star Christian Bale. David Goyer (who peend the Blade movies is writing the script. With someone as young as Bale under the cowl, I can only hope they're sticking with the "Batman:Year One" idea I heard kicking around a while ago.
