Now that I’ve had some time to decompress and process what was witnessed (and in some cases smelled, unfortunately) at this year’s San Diego Comic Con, it’s time to share. I’d been moderately curious about 300, the adaptation of Frank Miller’s graphic novel by Dawn of the Dead redirector Zack Snyder. The story is a … Continue reading

Longtime CHUD readers will know that when we have screenings they’re usually in the South. That’s because CHUD’s technically based out of Atlanta (although this being the internet physical location doesn’t mean a whole bunch). But when the opportunity arises to have a CHUD screening here in New York City, I jump at it. Especially … Continue reading
Don’t forget about our Beerfest screening! The Descent is a movie that has garnered an interesting bit of discussion amongst the CHUD.com staff and readers for some time now. We even devoted a chunk of Podcast time to it in the past. Some of us love it. Some of us like it. Some of us… … Continue reading
Disclaimer: I am a close friend and business partner with the creator of this film so feel free to assume my vision is clouded and influenced by my love for the guy. It’s understandable, especially in this world wily web we exist on and its mercenary allegiances. Still, this is my from-the-heart-and-brain take and I … Continue reading
When I did my one on one with Jon Favreau at this year’s Comic Con, the room had the Iron Man teaser poster you see above. I don’t think you can take too much from that poster – the movie doesn’t even really have a completed script yet, let alone a finished Iron Man design … Continue reading
I’m going to a more spare look for the letters column as I plan to do it more often (with your help. Send letters!). I might do two a week if there’s enough material for it. This tends to be the easiest way to address the readers globally. And here we go! Loving the Kraken … Continue reading
Another year, another Comic Con. Well, a second year, a second Comic Con. This was only year two for me when it comes to San Diego, but that didn’t stop it from feeling weird that Nick opted out this time. I don’t know how outlets with only one reporter cover this thing – there were … Continue reading
I think Bryan Singer was very brave to come to Comic Con this year. Superman Returns is probably not going to get to 200 million dollars at the box office, let alone make back its production budget, and the fan response to the film has been mixed. Add to that the fact that the Comic … Continue reading
