    Production on the film was set to start Monday in Phoenix


    This cancellation is not the first Columbia to come out of left field in the Southwest.

    Studio execs balked when they found out the story did not revolve around the main character's life following his escape from Willy Wonka's Chocolate Factory.

    ...is there anyway we can make tweak this F.P. Santangelo-- maybe make him a super deadly female assasian. Maybe a hot Eva Mendes, deadly Latina type? We can? Good.

    Extra! Moneyball shelved for now. Helmer Soderbergh said to be shopping baseball flick at next comglom confab but doesn't expect much competish for nerdy narrowcast. Stay tuned to online tabmag Deadspin.com for more.

    This is almost as bad of an idea as casting a porn star in a movie with no nudity.

    Soderbergh's change in vision unsettled Pascal and the brakes were immediately applied to the project.


    I guess Soderbergh disagrees with Pascal's Wager that the studio had nothing to gain and everything to lose.

    Pascal wagered that this movie wouldn't be a box office success.
