Two Snow Whites, Two Linda Lovelace Biopics: The Dueling Movies Trend Continues

A couple of years back I investigated the phenomenon of dueling movies -- a set of movies with similar subject material which are developed and launched by different galleries almost concurrently. With that time, penguins, pigs, bugs, volcanoes, masters of magic, Scottish heroes and Truman Capote had all become the dueling movie treatment. Since that time there has been more double-assumes screen: notable good examples include films about retail center guards (Paul Blart: Mall Cop and Observe and Report last year) and flicks about pals who have sexual intercourse (No Strings Attached and Buddies With Benefits this year). And also the trend continues. Universal Pictures and Relativity Media happen to be involved in a wicked witch-style fight over little people lover Snow Whitened. Alternatively finish from the character spectrum, infamous porn star Linda Lovelace presently has two teams fighting on her recognition too, with Malin Ackerman starring in a single biopic scheduled for release in 2012 and Olivia Wilde indicating curiosity about another. Given Hollywoods appetite for that reheated and recycled, I suppose more dueling movies are coming. So what is next two films about earth-threatening comets? Wait thats recently been done! Exactly what do you think about the dueling movie trend? Would you view it like a sign that Hollywood is drained of ideas? Have you been more intrigued by the thought of competing "Snow Whitened" movies, or switched off in the prospect of two remarkably similar films opening inside the same year? Provide us with your ideas about the two Snow Whitened films, both Linda Lovelace biopics along with other dueling movies within the comments section as well as on Twitter!
