Bitch
Slap is an upcoming 2009 action film about three women who try to
extort $200 million from a ruthless underworld kingpin. The film was
directed by Rick Jacobson, and stars Julia Voth, Erin Cummings, America
Olivo and Michael Hurst, with cameos by Lucy Lawless, Kevin Sorbo, and
Renée O'Connor, and is described as "a post-modern, thinking man's
throwback to the 'B' Movie/Exploitation films of the 1950s–70s as well
as a loving, sly parody of the same."
At its core, “Bitch Slap” follows three bad girls (a down-and-out stripper, a drug-running killer and a corporate powerbroker) as they arrive at a remote desert hideaway to extort and steal $200 Million in diamonds from a ruthless underworld kingpin. Things quickly spin out of control as allegiances change, truths are revealed, other criminals arrive for the score and the fate of the world hangs in the balance.

"A while ago I had written a script for myself and there was a sequence in it that made me think, 'How can I make a film that can have action sequences in it that aren't limited by the physical realities that normal people are limited by, but still have the story make sense so it's not, and I don't mean to be mean, like a bulls--t thing like Ultraviolet or something like that... It's as crazy as anything else that I have ever done. It's a movie that nobody can get made with the ending that it has and the subject matter." - Zack Snyder.

G.I. Joe will be a modern telling of the "G.I. Joe vs. Cobra" storyline and its compelling characters that Hasbro created 25 years ago. The premise of this fantasy is the story of the G.I. Joe team, led by Duke, and their "fight for freedom wherever there is trouble" against the evil Cobra Commander and his Cobra force. This storyline was an instant hit with kids in the early 1980s, spawning a highly popular 3-3/4-inch action figure line, comic book collection and animated series. The G.I. Joe team will not be based in Brussels. Instead, they will be based out of the "Pit" as they were throughout the 1980s comic book series. And, in keeping with the G.I. Joe vs. Cobra fantasy, the movie will feature characters and locations from around the world. Duke, the lead character and head of the G.I. Joe team, will embody the values of bravery and heroism that the first generation of G.I. Joe figures established.

Patience
Philips (Halle Berry) is a woman who just won’t stand up for herself --
and the world is more than willing to step all over her in return. A
meek people-pleaser, she squanders her considerable artistic talent in a
thankless job as a graphics designer for behemoth cosmetics company
Hedare Beauty, a ‘youth and beauty at all costs’ conglomerate run by the
tyrannical George Hedare (Lambert Wilson) and his icy supermodel wife,
Laurel (Sharon Stone).
In a fateful turn of events, Patience’s quiet life is forever changed when she overhears a conversation revealing that Hedare’s too-good-to-be-true new anti-aging product is...too good to be true. Caught in the wrong place at the worst possible time, Patience is murdered to keep Hedare’s secret safe. But all is not lost.
Resurrected by mysterious forces, she awakens…and she doesn’t come back alone. Suddenly gifted with strength, agility and ultra-keen senses, she is no longer just Patience -- she is also Catwoman, a seductive creature delicately balancing on the dangerously thin line between good and bad.
Her adventures begin as she goes on the prowl to settle a few scores and have herself some long overdue fun. But Catwoman’s exploits quickly complicate Patience’s burgeoning relationship with Tom Lone (Benjamin Bratt), a handsome cop dedicated to saving the good guys from the bad guys -- and the belief that there’s no gray area between the two. The detective is falling for Patience, but he can’t shake his fascination with the feline fatale who appears to be responsible for a string of crimes being committed throughout the city.
As her wild side breaks loose, the line between Patience and her untamed alter ego begins to blur -- and neither of them feel like playing by anyone else’s rules anymore.
