Found this teaser trailer of the upcoming Avengers film, which is of course a reboot of the British TV series… wait, what?  It’s about comic books?  Interesting.  Oh, well here’s a really pointless video of Samuel L. Jackson talking while an “A” spins in the dark.  Enjoy.

In an article oddly timestamped April 30, 2009 as of my writing this, Yahoo! has revealed what it claims to be an exclusive look at some new posters for the upcoming Captain America and Thor films.  The new posters are going to be distributed at Comic-Con this weekend, and attendees will have the chance for the actors to sign them.  As of now not much has been seen of what Captain America is going to look like in his upcoming film.  I recommend checking out their website for a look at both posters and clicking past the break where I scrimshawed some words of my own about the posters.

Saw 3D The Traps Come Alive… and Franchise Looses Integrity

I like the Saw franchise.  There, I said it.  The series has managed to hold onto a gritty blend of police investigation and violent traps that although outlandish, remain plausible.  The series has never delved into the supernatural or impossible, and has therefore created an air of seriousness about it.  That’s why when I heard that Shock Till You Drop found out the next installment of the franchise will not be called Saw VII but Saw 3D The Traps Come Alive I died a little inside.

Shyamalan’s Biggest Twist: Last Airbender Box Office Return

Since it’s release, The Last Airbender has garnered universal hatred among critics.  Be it professional reviewers or bloggers; fans or non-fans.  Just about everybody is saying this movie blows.  For my own part, I haven’t seen it.  I probably will, at some point.  For the record I am a huge Avatar fan.  The series is one of my all time favorite shows.  The movie, regardless of it’s shit factor, can never take away my love for the Avatar TV series.

Joss Whedon to direct Avengers Movie?

It would seem Mr. Joss Whedon is a major contender to direct the much anticipated Avengers movie.  An article on MTV.com discuses the rumor and cites two qualifcations which make him a solid choice:

  • He wrote some issues of the Astonishing X-Men comic series
  • He has a talent for working on projects with ensemble cast

Both valid points MTV, I’ll give you that.  For my own part, I think Joss is an inspired choice.

Weird Al to Direct New Movie for Cartoon Network

Posted 25 Jan 2010 — by VaultDweller13

Renowned parody artist “Weird Al” Yankovick announced via Twitter and his blog earlier today that he is going to direct a new live-action movie for Cartoon Network that isn’t a sequel to UHF.  So far he has said little about it other than the fact that he has written it himself, and will feature a young, high-school aged protagonist.  Shooting will most likely begin later this year, so we shouldn’t expect it until 2011 at the soonest.

I’m excited about this new project as I’ve been a lifelong fan of Mr. Yankovick and his work.  While I’m a little upset that the show isn’t going to be about him I have faith that whatever he does will be a laugh riot.  Hopefully he turns a critical eye towards the tween, high-school drama of today and delivers the same satire we’ve all come to love from him over the years.

Why the Mass Effect Film Has Me Worried…

Mass Effect, the hit rpg/third person shooter/ all around awesome game produced by the geniuses at Bioware impressed a lot of people, not the least of which was me. I’m not impressed, however, with the man who managed to option the movie rights.
