  • Catwoman Further Revealed….

    It seems that a lot of people just weren’t big fans of the first Anne Hathaway Catwoman picture revealed. They Complained her costume was lame and compared it to the Tim Burton Pfeiffer version which I will agree was pretty awesome. If you ask me however the costume for Batman in Nolan’s movie has always kinda bugged…

  • Camp Hell…Starring Jesse Eisenberg…Kinda…

    I am pretty open to watching nearly any horror movie good or bad and I had relatively low expectations for the newly released on DVD film “Camp Hell”. It had some promising elements in it as it took place at a Christian summer camp and supposedly involved demons showing up to wreck havoc on the…

  • Movie Super Heroes Making Costumes from Basketballs!

    So did everyone out there get a good look today at the new Superman today? It seems  the new photo of Henry Cavill as Supes is causing quite a buzz online today. What I am confused about is why these new  movie super heroes seem to be constructing their costumes out of  basketballs?! Seriously this…

  • Obscure Super Hero Movies! Dr. Strange 1978?

    So it’s apparent now that Marvel is going to keep cranking out super hero movies and I am certain one of their next films is gonna be Dr. Strange! What a lot of people don’t know is that they already gave Stephen a go way back in 1978! The results well as you can guess…

  • LARPing Hits The Mainstream in Knights of Badassdom!

    So it seems that LARPing is getting some real props lately in the world of movies. The new trailer for “Knights of Badassdom” continues this trend on the silver screen. Let’s admit it LARPing is an easy thing to poke fun at, personally I have never really done it in the traditional sense but never…

    Finally the brand spankin’ new trailer for the prequel to probably my favorite sci-f i / horror movie ever has arrived! The Thing (strangely named the same) will be arriving in theaters in October and from the looks of this new trailer it’s definitely on the right track! I have been a bit worried about it since I…

  • More of the Dwarves of The Hobbit!

    So here we have a first look at the Dwarves of the Hobbit! I realize that this pic is all over the net right now but really how could I not post it here today? I have to say this makes my day just to know that Peter Jackson is actually making this movie!!! Check…

  • Recent Ray Bradbury Mania!

    It must just be by chance that recently I’ve gotten on a little Ray Bradbury kick. Sadly not in book form, but rather in the way of first, Ray Bradbury Theater which I recently found on dvd! What you never heard of Ray Bradbury Theater? Well it was kinda like Amazing Stories or The Twilight…

  • JLA 1997 TV Pilot? REALLY?

    I just heard yesterday about this JLA Tv pilot from 1997 that you can see on Youtube now, yeah you can watch the whole damn wretched thing! I honestly didn’t even know this existed until I read about it in The Portland Mercury yesterday. It’s from back in 1997, it never saw the light of…

  • The 8 Other Movies “Super 8” Owes it’s Success to…

    So I’m here to tell tell you a few things today, as you guessed “Super 8” is the movie to see this summer, I loved it. Secondly it’s very obvious that JJ Abrams was a fan of The Goonies and E.T. and was trying his best (he succeeded) in replicating the nostalgic vibe of those…
