You may have seen photos of the poster above, which premiered at Zack Snyder’s Watchmen panel and was given out to fans at Comic Con, but this is the official release. What you’re looking at is brand new Dave Gibbons art from one of the most seminal scenes in comic book history – the killing … Continue reading
I hate going to movies at Comic Con, because they play at night and cut right into my valuable drinking time. But this year there was one movie that made me forsake the bottle for a couple of hours: Superbad. I don’t know how I lucked out to be alive in a year where I … Continue reading
Although I vaguely remember watching the first Resident Evil movie, I was more than happy to skip the sequel, Apocalypse. Apparently, Milla Jovovich’s Alice character had evolved into an outright superhero with no regard for the laws of physics, and that’s where I checked out. Who wants to see zombies get mopped up by someone … Continue reading
Last week, the four leads from the amazingly funny Superbad hit town to promote the film. Andrew Sweeney [whose work in getting this recorded and prepared is phenomenal] and myself met with them on the Superbad Tour Bus at the Warped Tour in Atlanta. Those leads are: Jonah Hill, who plays Seth to vulgar perfection … Continue reading

At the conclusion of Wednesday night’s Beowulf presentation at the now thankfully concluded 2007 San Diego Comic Con, I muttered to Devin and Russ that any 2-D trailer of Robert Zemeckis’s picture would almost surely be negatively received. By the time we got back to our hotel room (at the rather advanced hour of 4:30 … Continue reading
While I’m transcribing the Iron Man interviews, I thought there was a small tidbit worth passing along quickly. In several statements, Terrence Howard was discussed as the lead for a possible War Machine spin-off (no surprise), and the actor himself demonstrated a real enthusiasm for the material, and an obvious interest in headlining such a … Continue reading
I’m vaguely shocked to see so little talk of Pixar’s upcoming Wall-E after the Disney/Pixar panel showing on Saturday. It’s easy to get overshadowed by Iron Man, but with so little genuinely good film present at the con, I’d expect people to be all over this. Am I the only one who thought it looked … Continue reading

Just finished the Iron Man roundtables — full transcriptions will be up soon — but I wanted to quickly clarify what’s up with Ed Norton writing The Hulk. The dirt paraphrased from Marvel Studios producer Kevin Feige goes like this: Zack Penn wrote a few drafts that were great starting material, and that when Ed … Continue reading
