Coming May 2013: Antoine Fuqua's Chutes And Ladders. Starring Ke$ha and Ken Watanabe, this tale set during the Third Crusades will mix action, romance, and remedial learning as Saracen heathens attempt to discredit Byzantine meritocracy in the classroom.

Meh, I'm not as excited for this as I am for Ridley Scott's Monopoly.

Coming July 2014: Neveldine & Taylor's JENGA. Gerard Butler's mental and physical skills will be tested as he takes turns against a serial killer (played by John Malkovich) to remove a block from a tower and balance it on top, creating a taller and increasingly unstable structure as the game progresses.
They already have the taglines for marketing, "Next summer, the blocks will fall." and "What is Jenga?"
Per Neveldine, "Remember that Domination video game played by James Bond versus Maximilian Largo in NEVER SAY NEVER AGAIN? Well, multiply the intensity by 100 times and that's what you will see our JENGA film."

I just can't fathom what aspects of the game could be used in a film script. Are the ship captains going to be calling out sector designations like A-7 and B-5 and how exciting would that be?

That might not sound exciting but add a hand-held camera and MTV style editing and you've got...ummmm...yeah it still sounds shitty.
