I know I'm going to get hell for this but if I see Samuel L. Jackson in another film... He was great in Die Hard, so not saying he isn't a good actor, but he always seems miscasted, and a huge distraction what ever film he is in. Can't stand him as Agent Fury.
....of course, everyone's tastes differ, but I find him to be a breath of fresh air as Nick Fury... 
...but, to echo above, a reboot of what? The last Tarzan film I remember was that piece of s**t insult with Casper Van Dien...but it has been nearly 30 years since Tarzan was done properly, so OK, but here's hoping it's done by someone with respect for the source material...there's some good stories already out there.

ANIMATED Anne Frank?
(Actually, already been done, in Japan.)
But that's all we need. Animated Nazis. Animated death camps.
Wild.
(Actually, the Nazis did make animated cartoons, very anti-Semitic, not very well made. Weird.)

Having read most of the Tarzan novels, I would say that Tarzan has never been done properly, although Greystoke came close.
