Here’s a bit of G.I. Joe action, and after seeing the techno-go-go-gadget-cyber-suits, I’m questioning if this movie is going to be good, bad, or ugly. Movie Trailers – Movies Blog

Seems Steven Spielberg understands that Tintin is more popular outside the United States, and has decided to release it internationally a month and a half earlier than the U.S. release. Paramount Pictures and Sony Pictures Entertainment unveiled plans to release the motion capture pic Stateside on Dec. 23, 2011. But in an unusual move, film will launch internationally in late October and early November 2011, with Sony Pictures Releasing Intl. handling Continental Europe, Eastern Europe, Latin America and India, and Paramount distributing the film in Asia, Australia, the U.K. and all other English-speaking territories. I totally agree with this move,…
IDW Publishing had a great hook with the Transformers movie adaptation, and it’s going to repeat the formula with a four-issue adaptation of the upcoming G.I. JOE: The Rise of Cobra. The series claims to give readers an exclusive peek at what to expect in costume design and plot twists. “G.I. JOE was an essential part of my childhood. I saw COBRA agents around every schoolyard corner,†said Andy Schmidt in a prepared statement, IDW’s G.I. JOE editor. “It is an honor to be part of an intensely fun and uniquely relevant group of characters. As a lifelong G.I. JOE…
Four-time Emmy Award winner Alan Burnett departs from a 17-year stint in the Batcave to establish intergalactic justice as the screenwriter for Green Lantern: First Flight, the next DC Universe animated original PG-13 movie coming to DVD on July 28, 2009. Burnett, who began his animation career at Hanna-Barbera Studios with Super Friends in 1981, has been the single most consistent active figure in bringing the Batman’s legacy to animation since 1991 – when he began scripting episodes of Batman: The Animated Series, the Emmy®-winning production widely considered a pivotal moment in American animation. Burnett’s stellar talents have merited four…
I think Sherlock Holmes has alwasy been in the back of my mind as a favored hero, and this latest trailer for the Robert Downey Jr. movie has sparked further interest in the sleuth.
Could there really be a Buffy the Vampire Slayer coming ot the big screen? If you are wetting yourself over that thought, it will probably sober you up to know that Joss Whedon wil not be involved in the project. It sounds really weird not having Whedon involved in anything Buffy, after all, he was the writer of the first Buffy movie that featured the yummy Christy Swanson (not to be confused with Swanson’s pot pies, which are also quite yummy, but in a different way). While Whedon is the person most associated with “Buffy,” Kuzui and her Kuzui Enterprises…
I finally saw the trailer for the upcoming Surrogates movie leading into Terminator: Salvation. It looks pretty interesting, and I’m going to have to track down the graphic novel to see what it is all about. SURROGATES trailer in HD
The latest installment of the Terminator frranchise arrived in theaters this weekend, bringing in $13 million on the Thursday early opening. I took the time to see it on Friday afternoon, and it wasn’t awful. What did you think? Did Terminator: Salvation live up to your expectations, or did if fail miserably?
Check out this special feature where Hans Zimmer and Christopher Nolan discuss music used in The Dark Knight movie.
The Last Airbender movie from M Night Shyamalan is coming soon, and slashFilm picked up some of the images from today’s USA Today. Noah Ringer plays Aang, the last Air Bender. The 12-year old from Texas who was cast during an open call. I’ve only recently caught the series on Nick between episodes of Make Way for Noddy and Thomas the Tank Engine, but I’m certainly looking forward to the trailer that will debut before the Transformers movie on July 2nd. via SlashFilm
Former Disney CEO Michael Eisner, and current owner of Topps, picked up the rights to to adapt the bubblegum comic strip Bazooka Joe into a feature film. Writing the movie will be Mark Hammer, not to be confused with Mike Hammer, who apparently graduated from college this past week. “Bazooka Joe” has been a comic strip used as an advertising device for the gum since the 1950s. Joe, who wears an eye patch for reasons never explained, has child-friendly misadventures, sometime joined by a host of friends with the names Pesty, Mort (always with a turtleneck sweater pulled up over…
Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince is another in the big summer movie extravaganza, and it opens July 17, 2009. Buffy the Vampire Slayer has done really well in comic book form, and even though we won’t see Harry Potter comics in the near future, I do wonder how many comic book readers are fans of the Harry Potter books? How many of the Major Spoiler Legion are going to see the Half Blood Prince?
Michael Bay posted an image of Sideways from the upcoming Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen movie. Looks alright, I just hope Sideways has plenty of Turtle Wax Car Polish to keep up appearances. Take the jump for the full version.
For all of us who are not on the grant morrison band wagon, this upcoming documentary might clear some things up. For the rest of you who already know every minuscule part of grant’s life, this will probably not be new to you. Of course there’s always the chance the documentary won’t agree with your world view of the comic book creator, in which case you’ll probably insult the intelligence of the film makers. Sequart and Respect! Films are prodcuing a documentary about legendary comic book writer Grant Morrison. Morrison has written virtually every major comic book franchise, from Batman…
