This information from released in a PDF Document from Teamsters.org. Hopefully we’ll be finding more out soon. Thanks to deezelboy on the AXP forums for this.
EDIT: As shown in this posts very comments section, this new has brought about some deal of confusion. Anyway, Colin Strause recently posted on the IMDB message boards to clear up a few things:
“-The term “reshoot” is bad. Because many, many times it’s shooting new stuff, not re-doing old stuff. And this is usually because everyone is liking the film so they invest more money into it. (Or on many films there is a reshoot budget already built into the films budget because they know every film has reshoots.)”

well lets hope this is for the fans benefit
Nothing to worry about . Every film has re shoots.
Before this story snowballs out of control let me say that these reshoots have already happened. They were pick-up shots not done during principle photography. This happened back in December. The date on the top of the document on the Teamsters website is the date the PDF file was late updated, not the date any of those shots are being done. I already clarified this on our forums. Sorry for any confusion guys.
a RESHOOT ? i think thats kinda lame in my opinion BUT like XENOPRED said lets hope is for the benefit of the fans
Did you actually read Hick's post lol?!
It sounds like production has contracted “Alien 3” syndrome! LOL!
Many films have reshoots, its a normal thing ???
DONT WORRY, the film will be fine. Read Hicks post, many films, almost all, go into reshoots. There is absolutely NO reason to complain, and absolutely no reason to post on that these reshoots are a 'bad thing'. Case closed.
QuoteIt sounds like production has contracted “Alien 3” syndrome! LOL!
Hardly. The 're-shoots' were pick-up shots that weren't (for whatever reason) able to be scheduled into priniciple photography. There's nothing of concern here.
some times when a movie is realy bad they fire the producer and reshoot----- I think this is not one of these cases ----
some times they scrap a bad sceen and reshoot a olternative so they can sell a directors cut dvd
then again some times a actor is run over by a bus and the reshoot the seens the actor was in
colin has posted in IMDB forums about this.
Woohooo maybe 10 years from now we'll get an awesome SE DVD with edited scenes!!
I've already edited the news post. Please look at it. It'll clear stuff up.
Does this mean it'll come out later than usual?
No. These reshoots have already been done.
