New Trailer: Captain Thunder And The Holy Grail

Alright, if you’ve never heard of this comic it’s probably because you do not live in the Spanish-speaking world.  Although, I guess I have no excuse since the United States is technically now a part of the Spanish-speaking world.  Anyway, Captain Thunder and the Holy Grail (or Capitan Trueno Y El Sancto Grial) is a [...]

Thor On The Cover Of Men’s Health

Actually, it’s Chris Hemsworth, but the star of next month’s blockbuster film Thor was  given some face time on the cover of Men’s Health Malaysia, the May 2011 issue.  In it, Chris Hemsworth dishes more dirt about the weight he gained for the role and his workout routine.

5 Retro Promo Shots From X-Men: First Class

In this month’s issue of Total Film, the cast of X-Men: First Class delivers more of that 60s retro feel in a photo shoot designed to reflect the time in which the team of mutants was launched.  The film delves into the original friendship between Professor Charles Xavier and Erik Lehnsherr (the man who would [...]

Nestor Carbonell Joins The Dark Knight Rises

The Dark Knight Rises casting news seems to be endless, at least if you are a comic book movie blogger.  You may recall that Nestor Carbonell was the actor that played Mayor Garcia in The Dark Knight.  Well, it was revealed yesterday that he shall be returning to The Dark Knight Rises to continue his [...]

Guess Who’s Getting Their Own Anime? Jesus

And no, this anime is not about “Jesus” your gardener from Honduras.  A Japanese production company has actually created a controversial anime about no less a personage than Jesus of Nazareth.  This Jesus comes equipped with a crown of thorns AND stigmata.  The preview video has to be seen to be believed!  (via Japanator)

Really Bad The Walking Dead Billboard Placement

This is so bad it’s good.  A billboard for The Walking Dead (an AMC television show obviously about zombies) was placed outside of a funeral parlor.  Um… yeah, not a good idea.  (via Blastr)

Illustrious Omnibus of Superpowers: The Superhero Guide

If  you woke up this morning in a cold sweat wondering “Why don’t I have a convenient chart that explains to me all of the different types of superpowers neatly divided into seven handy categories?” then it looks like your prayers have been answered. A group called Pop Chart Lab has created the following diagram [...]

Peter Jackson’s First Hobbit Weblog Is Online!

I know for a fact that lots of you out there have been wondering what precisely Peter Jackson is doing with his The Hobbit production, which has overcome various delays and natural disasters to finally begin filming in his home country of New Zealand.  It has been far too long since we have seen some [...]

Warner Bros. Making Batman Film The Dark Knight Returns

It was announced last night that Warner Brothers, the studio behind DC Comics’ latest installments in the Batman franchise (and the original Batman films as well), is creating an animated feature entitled The Dark Knight Returns.  Some of you may recognize that as the title of a Frank Miller-handled Batman storyline from way back in [...]

Cowboys And Aliens Trailer, Olivia Wilde Nude!

The new HD Cowboys and Aliens Trailer has hit the web and yes, my friends, Olivia Wilde is nude.  How could the studio possibly release a Cowboys and Aliens trailer with a nude leading actress in it?  Well, you shall have to just watch for yourself and see, my dear geeks. Cowboys and Aliens stars [...]

X-Men’s Emma Frost Bust Causes… Excitement

Interpret that as you choose.  I don’t really know what to say about this bust (pun intended) of X-Men fixture Emma Frost other than… erm… I want one… yesterday.  She sort of looks like Christina Hendricks from Mad Men without the red hair (but with the enormous breasts). It is available in limited numbers for [...]

Press Video of Batman Live Show!

By now, most of you have heard and seen images about the suspicious Batman Live show that is scheduled to take over the UK in about two months, as this story has gone viral at this point.  I have not met or heard from one geek that is actually excited about this, although there were [...]

The Dark Side Proves Too Attractive For Little Girl

Gotta love this video of a young girl at Disney World who, when offered the choice of joining the Skywalkers at the Jedi Academy or joining Darth Vader and the Dark Side chose… the Dark Side.  I love it.  Honestly, I think I would have made the same decision.  At one point, there were thousands [...]

Robin Does Catcher In The Rye

Alright, that sounds obscene.  What I meant was: “Robin, sidekick of Batman, does an interpretation of Catcher In the Rye”.  There, that’s better.  If you are a fan of Batman Comics and you would like to relive being forced to read Catcher in the Rye when you were a young person, than you might like [...]

James Franco In Rise Of The Planet Of The Apes Trailer!

I have to be honest.  When I first heard that Rise of the Planet of the Apes was being made I was very skeptical.  First of all, I thought it was twenty years too late, and if I remember correctly, they already made something like six movies in this franchise, which seemed to get progressively [...]

Wonder Woman’s Adrianne Palicki Getting Makeover, Costume Change

Apparently, there are many Wonder Woman fans that are still unhappy with the present incarnation of the Wonder Woman Costume.  First it was that the boots should be red instead of blue (because the blue boots were the same color as the blue pants, and that was bad).  Now, it’s that Wonder Woman should not [...]

Daniel Sunjata, Diego Klattenhoff Join Dark Knight Rises

It was announced last night that two new actors have joined Christoper Nolan’s last swing at the Batman franchise: The Dark Knight Rises.  Daniel Sunjata, of numerous films and television shows (including Rescue Me), and Diego Klattenoff (Lucky Number Slevin, Supernatural) have been brought on to the project in supporting roles, according to Collider.  Sunjata [...]

Michael Clarke Duncan To Voice Kilowog in Green Lantern

After nearly three weeks of speculation, Warner Brothers has confirmed that actor Michael Clarke Duncan is officially involved in contract negotiations with the studio to voice Kilowog, an alien for which many fans have a soft spot.  With the film essentially done with shooting, it was about time that the studio nailed someone for this [...]

Batman Live Show To Hit The Stage in London

If you were not aware that there was a Batman-themed live action extravaganza in the works, then join the club because you were not the only one.  The European news is being flooded with images and video of Batman Live, a show similar (but hopefully not too similar) to the much-maligned and injury-riddled Spider-Man: Turn [...]

Yet More Thor Images Released!

Alright, by now all of you geeks out there know all about Thor, including the general plot, who’s starring in the film, and the fact that Chris Hemsworth actually had to lose weight after bulking up too much to fit in the suit and star in the role: you guys know all that so I [...]

S.H.I.E.L.D. Movie Promotion Website Up And Running

Marvel Comics, with a slew of movies coming out this year and several more in the works over the next few years, is showing no signs of slowing down and the just launched JoinSHIELD.com site is nothing less than their attempt at taking over the world. The website is ostensibly a way to connect fans [...]

New Pictures of Ryan Reynolds In Green Lantern Released

Of all of the incredible comic book movies planned for release this year, Green Lantern is probably the one that is getting the least attention, compared to Thor and Captain America.  With a first trailer that was lackluster and a second trailer that was much better, Green Lantern is building up steam and DC hopes [...]

Video: Batmobile Traveling At 155 MPH Comes To Holland

Paid for by the Dutch government, the “Stretch Batmobile” sprung from the mind of astronaut/engineer Wubbo Ockels, and it allegedly travels at a speed of 155 MPH (not kilometers but MILES) in its own dedicated lane.  Geez, at speeds like that, you could probably get from one side of the Netherlands to the other in [...]

Tim Miller Set To Direct Deadpool, Ryan Reynolds To Star?

Hold on to your seats, Deadpool fans, because X-Men Origins: Deadpool has officially found a director in the person of Tim Miller.  Interestingly, the film will be the directorial debut for Miller who previously has operated as a special effects specialist for other comic-themed movies, including X-2 and Daredevil.  Like Wolverine, Deadpool is sort of [...]

Social Network’s Josh Pence Lands Dark Knight Rises Role

Dark Knight Rises is a project that the studio and production team has kept pretty secretive.  Other than occasional casting news and a rough idea that the film will feature Ra’s al-Ghul, Bane, and Catwoman, there’s not a whole lot that is known about the film.  We also know that Christian Bale will be returning [...]

Hawkeye Revealed In Thor TV Spot!

A recent clip from Marvel’s upcoming film Thor gives viewers a brief glimpse of Hawkeye, a character that joined superhero group the Avengers way back in 1965 (that’s a long time ago, folks).  I’m starting to get the impression that little cameos in comic book films are the new trend in comic book movies.  Nick [...]

New Footage in Italian Thor Trailer

Gotta love the European trailers of mainstream American films.  The directors of the trailers often feature footage that has not yet been revealed in the States, and the following trailer, one of two released in Italy this week, does not disappoint. The trailer features images of other Marvel heroes and shows additional images of Asgard, [...]

First Photos Captain America XXX Released!

Extreme Comixxx is at it again, and I can’t blame them.  The American public has shown itself to be obsessed with comic book movies, but America is also obsessed with porn, so why shouldn’t a studio come out and release several comic book themed porn movies?  The last hit from Extreme Comixx was the Justice [...]

Teach Your Kids the ABCs With Superheroes!

Several awesome pictures featuring superhero images have been released lately and this is one of the coolest.  Basically, it is the alphabet constructed from the costumes of famous superheroes whose aliases bear that letter.  I won’t spoil it, but it starts off with Aquaman, Batman, and Cyclops.  You get the picture.  Can you name them [...]

George Takei Audition Tape For Spider-Man Musical

It sounds like veteran actor George Takei (best known as Sulu from the original Star Trek) has a lot of free time on his hands because he put together this audition tape to help him get the role of Spider-Man in Spider-Man: Turn Off The Dark. Clearly, this is a gag as I am sure [...]
