Iron Man 2 - The Trailer
Love it......but still not sold on Mickey Rourke. ...
Universal Soldier: Regeneration
I'm a big fan of big dumb action movies of the '80s and '90s - you know the kind; they starred Arnie, Stallone, JCVD or Lundgren (hey, remember Dark Angel? That was great!) - and if you got two of them together, even better.Which was why Universal So...
RIP Edward Woodward
Edward Woodward died today, aged 79.Damn. I used to watch The Equalizer when I was a kid, despite my parents thinking it was too violent for me and that it was ridiculous that a man of that age went round getting into so much trouble.It wasn't until ...
A Plan Comes Together
Last Friday night as I was tidying up the dinner plates and making a cup of tea (yes folks, another excitement-filled Friday in New York City!) I was, for no apparent reason, whistling aimlessly.Only it wasn't quite as aimless as I thought - because ...
Clash of the Titans Trailer
I might be ambivalent on the Kick-Ass trailer but this looks like fun.Now if only we can get sword fighting skeletons......and yes, I know they were in Jason and the Argonauts, not the original Clash of the Titans. Creative license, people. Creative ...
Kick-Ass Trailer
I'm ambivalent about this, having no attachment to the source material - but I do think it's impressive that Mark Millar managed to sell another comic for a movie after the first or second issue came out.And I'm one of those guys who actually liked t...
Thor\'s Warriors Two?
According to AICN, Robert De Niro and Jude Law may have been cast in Thor. With Loki's role already filled, the obvious role for Law would be Fandral......and as such, I automatically picture De Niro as Hogun the Grim.I'm still rooting for Oliver Pla...
The Expendables Trailer
The Expendables - Sylvester Stallone - Trailerby 6ne_WebStallone, Statham, Li, Rourke, Lundgren, Zayas, Carpenter, Schwarzenegger, Austin, Willis and tons more?Hell yes. ...
Thor's Lady Sif is...
...Jaime Alexander, per THR.I haven't seen anything else she's been in so I'm not sure if this is good casting or not, but she's certainly got the hair down. Just hope she can use a sword a little.According to the report, the reliable Colm Feore has ...
Twelve Villains You Should See in Spider-Man 4 (and who should play them)
I took a look at twelve villains who shouldn't be in Spider-Man 4; so what about who should be in the movie*?I just hope that this time around, the filmmakers dispense with making the villain's origin or back story tie in to Spider-Man's somehow - un...
Twelve Villains You Shouldn't See in Spider-Man 4
On the heels of Variety officially confirming the release date of Spider-Man 4 (again starring Tobey Maguire and Kirsten Dunst, and again directed by Sam Raimi) as May 6, 2011 - which places it two weeks before the Thor movie, and a couple of months ...
RIP Patrick Swayze
You know, this has a hell of a lot more impact on me than Michael Jackson. Just saying. ...
Deadman Movie
I forgot to comment on the news the other day that Deadman would be getting a movie under the watchful eye of Guillermo Del Toro.That's an excellent choice, even if he's only producing, as I'm sure Del Toro's unique vision will inform the look of the...
Guy Ritchie's Lobo Already Cast
Hot on the heels of the news that Guy Ritchie would be helming a Lobo movie that sounds suspiciously like the plot for Marvel's Drax mini a few years back comes confirmation that the Main Man has already been cast.As speculated yesterday, frequent R...
I'd pity the fool...
via geektyrant.com ...except I'm slightly afraid he'd beat me with his chains. I have no idea who Quiton ‘Rampage ‘ Jackson is, but I'll tell you this: I'd still prefer Erik King as BA Baracus. Posted via web from Comic By Comic's Wond...
Iron Man 2 from SDCC
It's up for now, anyway...Edit The original source was pulled; replaced with this one for now.EDIT again Having received an email from Deputy General Counsel at Marvel, I've now pulled the footage entirely. I'm sure that it's available somewhere but,...
Planet Hulk Trailer
I'm not one for animated Marvel movies (mainly because the only one I've seen, Iron Man, was a bit lame) but damned if this doesn't look good.Any chance that this will lead into a World War Hulk? ...
Solomon Kane...
via craigzablo.com Does this conjure up uncomfortable memories of Van Helsing for anyone else? It's not just me, right? Posted via web from Comic By Comic's Wonderous Posterous! ...
Mr Eko for Black Panther?
MTV is reporting that Lost and Oz actor Adewale Akinnuoye-Agbaje is in talks to play the Black Panther in an upcoming movie.Movie Trailers - Movies BlogI'd always pictured Djimon Hounsou as T'Challa (and he's voicing him in the upcoming animated seri...
THE LOSERS poster
via comicbookresources.com An adaptation of Jock's cover for The Losers #12 to reflect the actor's likenesses - and it's adapted by Jock himself (you can see some process here) I have to say (1) I love the poster, and (2) I'm looking forward t...
Jonah Hex poster at SDCC
Looks pretty good - but, nerdily, I'm not too fond of the font. And if that scene with the gatling guns mounted on the horse stays in, it crosses the line into ridiculous pretty early on. Not to mention the zombies. Oh yes, the script has a few zo...
Meet the new Freddy, same as the old Freddy
via comingsoon.net Can you tell the difference at all in the dark there? I like the original movies - even though they got progressively sillier - but honestly, having read a draft of the script of the new Nightmare on Elm Street I'm not expec...
Warcraft. Raimi. Mountain Dew.
It was announced today that Sam Raimi will be taking on the World of Warcraft movie, presumably because he didn't end up getting The Hobbit after expressing his interest, and he really wants to direct a fantasy movie with a huge built-in audience.Hon...
Saw VI Motion Poster
via heyuguys.co.uk Okay, that's kind of awesome. I enjoy the Saw films in a weird kind of way, even though I've only seen I-III. They're not particularly good, but I enjoy that they go out of their way to try and link the movies together th...
My CEO doesn't look like this
via comicvine.com And honestly I think it would be kind of wrong if he did. Posted via web from Comic By Comic's Wonderous Posterous! ...
What If...Casting Call 1980s: Green Lantern
Yes, yes, we know that Ryan Reynolds is going to be slipping into Hal Jordan's flightsuit for the upcoming Green Lantern movie but (to steal a title) what if the current Green Lantern comic had been cast in the 1980s?Who'd be donning the GL suit then...
9 - Exclusive Clip
Those lucky enough to be heading to SDCC this year (swines, all of you) could do worse than attend the 9 panel on Friday in Hall H with Shane Acker, Tim Burton, Timur Bekmambetov, Elijah Wood and Jennifer Connelly.Ah, Jennifer Connelly...Anyway, the ...
Scarlett Johansson as the Black Widow
Alright. I had my doubts, but they're pretty much gone now.I approve this casting.Although Mickey Rourke's Whiplash still looks kinda stupid...Also in EW - Gwyneth Paltrow, presumably not as she'll appear in the movie.Although...Pepper Potts...pics v...
ZMD: Zombies of Mass Destruction Trailer
via youtube.com OK. This looks awesome. Terrible, but awesome. More here: ZMD: The Movie Posted via web from Comic By Comic's Wonderous Posterous! ...
Natalie Portman Cast in Marvel’s Thor?
via slashfilm.com I'd completely buy her as Lady Sif - but I'm not sure that she can swing a sword too well. But, honestly, I'd probably watch Natalie Portman eat a plate of fava beans. She's not unattractive, don't you know?(Edit: Apparently s...
