In the early AM hours on December 9, an attention-grabbing tweet popped up in the Twitter feed for Production Weekly: "James Cameron is developing a Shane Salerno-scripted sci-fi action script for Fox, described as an "event" film set in the future." Speculation immediately ran wild that said project was "Doomsday Protocol," a pitch Salerno sold to Fox last year that was described as being a sort of space-based take on Akira Kurosawa's "The Seven Samurai."
It turns out that this is not the case. MTV News' Josh Horowitz spoke with Cameron and producer Jon Landau on the red carpet at the London premiere of "Avatar," and the project in question has nothing to do with space-age samurai. The actual plan is to remake sci-fi classic "Fantastic Voyage," in 3-D, with Cameron taking on the role of producer.
In the original, a small team attempts to save the life of a nearly-assassinated diplomat through a uniquely invasive surgical procedure. The magic of science allows the doctors to be shrunken down to microscopic size and injected into the ailing diplomat's body. Piloting a specialized submersible craft -- also tiny -- the team attempts to repair with the diplomat's condition -- a blood clot in his brain -- on a cellular level.
The original hit theaters in 1966, long before digital effects were a factor in Hollywood filmmaking. One can only imagine how cool (and gooey) the diplomat's computer generated innards could be made to look with today's techniques. Add 3-D to that mix and... well... count me as excited. Stay tuned to MTV.com for additional updates... more to come when the Movies team returns from their trip across the Atlantic.

Gavin Rossdale's firstborn child, Daisy Lowe, 20, was spotted going for a stroll with her little brother, Kingston Rossdale, 3 1/2, in London on Thursday (December 10). That's right, before Kingston and Zuma, there was Daisy! Daisy's mother is singer/songwriter turned textile and fashion designer, Pearl Lowe. Until 2004, Daisy was believed to be the daughter of Pearl's ex-husband Bronner Handwerger, but a paternity test revealed that her godfather, Gavin Rossdale, was in fact her biological father. Pearl wrote about the situation in her book, All That Glitters, where she revealed that Daisy was the product of a one night stand between herself and Rossdale. Gwen Stefani was reportedly furious about the situation which was said to cause some difficulty in their marriage. Until now, Gavin had reportedly severed all ties with the Lowes. It looks like the families are making amends over the holiday season!  ( pics this way... )

 Amanda Blank is a rapstress from Philadelphia with whom you may already be familiar. She raps with the mouth of a pirate hooker and she’s a class act in person. Amanda is hot, but not so hot that you’d be afraid to kick it to her at last call. Hearing her rap about all of the ways she’s going to let you hit it is empowering; it gives you confidence knowing that some girls are really WAY MORE into the weird shit than some men. So with this in mind, I took her to San Francisco’s Good Vibrations, a dildo shop.( DILDOIN' IT )
