Early last month, Brett Ratner did an interview with MTV regarding BEVERLY HILLS COP 4.
A particular quote in the interview lead many to the logical conclusion that the new BHC project would have a considerably softer tone/rating than its predecessors.
When asked what is biggest challenge would be, Ratner seemed to indicate that his new film would be geared towards a very PG audience.

Jason Statham reprises his role as Frank Martin in TRANSPORTER 3.
Olivier Megaton directs this time around (everyone should have a name that cool) from a script by Luc Besson and Robert Mark Kamen (who wrote the first two films in the series).
The plot finds Frank wearing an explosive bracelet that'll detonate if he moves further than 75 feet from his vehicle.
The next time you turn on your XBOX, you'll receive notification of a "System Update" that'll install an entirely new dashboard/navigational/organizational "experience" into your system. This is called, simply enough, "The New XBOX Experience".
Stylistically, the throughline here = (essentially) Apple Cover Flow by way of Wii "cute"/"friendly" sensibility. An example:
Ahoy, squirts! Quint here. Now, I've been a bit pessimistic about this movie... actually, that's not true. Being pessimistic would mean I feel strongly about it and I don't. The whole TWILIGHT craze has passed me by. I'm open for the movie working, but nothing I've seen so far has really struck me as being impressive. At this point if it's just not THE COVENANT with vampires and Kristen Stewart, the movie will be a big surprise for me.
Strangely, until I came across this information, I'd completely forgotten a second Eddie Murphy NUTTY PROFESSOR movie was ever made.
But it was (subtitled MEET THE KLUMPS), which I remember now...and I remember seeing it...and now I'm all kindsa disoriented...even more so than usual.
The first trailer for RACE TO WITCH MOUNTAIN - the remake/reboot/whatever of ESCAPE TO WITCH MOUNTAIN - has hit Yahoo.
I've yet to be convinced about this project as a whole, but this effects-heavy trailer has a few nice moments: the boy-vs-truck gag is pretty sweet, and Dwayne Johnson's exchange with the kids re: flying the space ship cracked me up.
