Syfy and Universal Team Up to Go TheatricalIn a move that will either have our own Foywonder standing up and cheering or weeping openly at the thought of paying big ticket prices to see CGI-laden monster flicks on the big screen, the Syfy Network is going theatrical!

Variety reports that Universal Pictures and NBC Universal cabler Syfy have launched genre shingle Syfy Films, a production company set up to develop Syfy branded content for the big screen. The new shingle will produce one to two sci-fi, fantasy or horror pics annually starting in 2012; films will be distributed by Universal.

2012, eh? Is this another sign of the apocalypse? This has to be somewhere on that nasty Mayan calendar. Stay tuned.
