JERUSALEM (Reuters) - Steven Spielberg, famed for Hollywood blockbusters, is keeping mum about his latest project, a dramatization of tit-for-tat killings that followed the 1972 massacre of Israeli Olympic athletes by Palestinian guerrillas.

Such is the secrecy that even the Israeli spymasters who commanded the reprisals after the Munich Games have been left out in the cold.

My bad, I thought Amy Irving replaced Kate Capshaw instead of the other way around.

They all look alike anyway.

The history channel did a show on this. It was very good. I hope Speilberg does well. This is an incredible story.

"This film has been built from many, many sources. One thing I can say is we expect this to be a balanced film," he said.

Clearly, this means it's going to be crap. Next project: a balanced view of Rachel Corrie vs. the bulldozer. And there will be no need to talk to the IDF about this.

This sounds like it will be a boring movie. If it will be released in December it will also be a short production - that means no time for the special effects and major action scenes that he is famous for. It's probably a low budget pet project and I predict it won't be a box office smash, though with a low budget it could make money.

Maybe he's trying to win an academy award for documentary film?

well you know when these big stars types get divorced, they give good settlements to their exes, but then go on and make boatloads more money anyway.

Look at Howard Stern, gave up half his loot, but then signs a $100 million deal.

Speilberg no different. So he gives half of his past to Amy, he'll make that up 5 times over with Kate.
