Hunger Games Trailer [1 comment]

November 14, 2011

I’m way too excited for this. The only thing that caught me off guard were the Tributes’ outfits during training. I know this takes place in a dystopian future, but I picture really basic outfits made of cotton for the training, not those snazzy tracksuit things.

Have you read The Hunger Games? Are you looking forward to the movie?

Whedon Adapted “Much Ado About Nothing” [1 comment]

October 24, 2011

It’s been announced that Joss Whedon has adapted and directed “Much Ado About Nothing” starring a variety of actors from other Whedon projects, include Nathan Fillion.

This man is amazing. I can’t wait to find out more about the project. The official site is muchadothemovie.com, and will hopefully be updated soon.

Will you see a Whedon/Shakespeare movie? And after this and the Avengers, what story should he adapt next? (I’ve got my hopes set on “Beauty and the Browncoat Beast”.)

Confirmed: Arrested Development Movie + Episodes [Add a comment]

October 3, 2011


Last night, I was told Arrested Developement was confirmed to create a movie as well as 10 episodes to reintroduce the cast. I checked the calendar to make sure it wasn’t April, then pinched myself to make sure I wasn’t dreaming. It was true. So true. Creator Mitchell Hurwitz and stars Will Arnett and Jason Bateman told us so.

I can’t freakin wait.

According to Hurwitz, “We’re basically hoping to do nine or 10 episodes with almost one character per episode, where like the first episode will just be Buster. We’re kinda picturing it like, um, well the latest joke we have is that, you know, it’s Cambridge, Massachusetts and there’s all these scientists in lab coats and they’re waiting for somebody and Buster comes through the door wearing a lab coat and says `let’s begin,’ and they say, `you don’t get to wear the lab coat, we’re experimenting on you.”

Filming of the episodes and movies will occur in the summer of 2012, with an intended release in summer 2013. I’ll be interested to see if the limited episode run will occur on Fox, on the web, or on another network.

Check out the full Arrested Development panel from The 2011 New Yorker Festival by “liking” the New Yorker Facebook page .

Are you excited? What do you think the Bluth family’s been up to these past 7 years?

Live Action Portal Video [2 comments]

The short film Portal: No Escape is freaking amazing. See for yourself:

I loved some of her uses for the Portals- that’s some quick, smart thinking!

Who would want to see a full-length version of this? (Raises hand)

Thanks to Jorge and David for showing me the film!

Hello Nightmares: The Woman In Black [Add a comment]

August 18, 2011

I don’t know why, but I’ve been easily scared lately. Maybe it’s watching the episodes of Doctor Who with The Silence, maybe it’s reading about creepy urban legends involving This Man… but seeing the trailer of The Woman In Black sent it over the edge.

Little children? Check. Ghosts? Check. Creepy-ass toys? Check. Yep. I’m not sleeping tonight.

On the plus side, looks like Daniel Radcliffe is looking a bit less awkward.

Will you be checking out this movie? What’s been scaring you lately?

(Also, I had to look up links for scary things to make this post. You’re welcome. I’ll be cowering in a corner, shaking.)

Help Me Cosplay: Catwoman [4 comments]

August 16, 2011

The Dark Knight Rises, Anne Hathaway

 

I’ve been told in the past that I remind people of Anne Hathaway. Not even necessarily just physical traits, but in the way I carry myself and my mannerisms. (I think a lot of this is based off of her portrayal of a clumsy girl in The Princess Diaries. Seriously. I run into my coffee table on a daily basis.) So when I heard she was playing Catwoman, I got BEYOND excited. Finally–the ideal cosplay project for me! Now I just need to get a better view of her costume. There have been a few quick shots of her costume, and I found this video yesterday:

(So excited for the shoes and goggles! Check out more pics/videos at comicbookmovie.com)

Anyway, now I have to start figuring how to make the thing (while holding out for more detailed photos in the future). Do you have any suggestions on where to start looking for leather body suits? How I should make the goggles? Let me know! I’d love your input. And follow along, I’ll post more updated photos as I find them, as well as progress on my costume!

SFW Star Wars Porn Parody [1 comment]

August 10, 2011

I’m sorry, and you’re welcome.

This video is hilarious, and I think it should be left at that. Because I just don’t even want to know when and where the porn comes in, and with who.

And seriously, is it THAT tough to find a female porn actress that can actually act? (Luke, on the other hand, is pretty fantastic.)

Hobbit in under 2 Minutes [2 comments]

August 2, 2011

By now you all know that The Hobbit is in production, and will be in theaters in 2012. But do you know the story of The Hobbit? The Brothers Grim and Grimy are here to help!

I had to read The Hobbit in elementary school. It was the first book I couldn’t finish. I’m sorry! I know! I’m an awful geek. Sci Fi > than Fantasy any day, in my opinion.

Knights of Badassdom Trailer [Add a comment]

July 25, 2011

Straight out of SDCC: my new favorite movie trailer. LARPing, stupid comedy, paranormal thrills, and an amazing cast? I’m there.

I will be truly disappointed if there is not a midnight screening I can dress up and go to.

(Special thanks to Jorge for also sharing this trailer!)

The Amazing Spider-Man Trailer [7 comments]

July 21, 2011

I’m pretty excited for this. Who doesn’t love a good origin story? (Except for you, Wolverine.)

The feel is dark, Peter Parker’s hot, and we might even get some first-person spidey footage? Not bad.

What are your thoughts?
