Full 3-Minute Trailer for ABC's Marvel's 'Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.'

Earlier this week, I posted the first little trailer and image for Marvel's newest project in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.,. The full 3-minute trailer has made its way online today and gave more insight to what exactly the series is about. It looks very well done and might be very interesting to see where the series will lead us. Best part is Agent Coulson Lives!!

Check it out!!! 

The First Trailer for 'Marvel's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.'

The Avengers was a huge thing last year if you missed it. You'd have to be under a rock to have missed any news about it, but they announced they are making a tv series based around agents in the S.H.I.E.L.D. doing their thing when the Avengers are off doing bigger things. I will say that one guy in the trailer reminds me of Luke Cage a lot. (not just because he's big and black, but because he's strong and powerful!). Anyways, check out the trailer and see how it actually doesn't look too bad being it's on ABC. 

Clark Gregg reprises his role of Agent Phil Coulson from Marvel’s feature films as he assembles a small, highly select group of Agents from the worldwide law-enforcement organization known as S.H.I.E.L.D. Together they investigate the new, the strange, and the unknown across the globe, protecting the ordinary from the extraordinary. Coulson’s team consists of Agent Grant Ward (Brett Dalton), highly trained in combat and espionage, Agent Melinda May (Ming-Na Wen) expert pilot and martial artist, Agent Leo Fitz (Iain De Caestecker); brilliant engineer and Agent Jemma Simmons (Elizabeth Henstridge) genius bio-chemist. Joining them on their journey into mystery is new recruit and computer hacker Skye (Chloe Bennet). From Executive Producers Joss Whedon (“Marvel’s The Avengers,” ”Buffy the Vampire Slayer”); Jed Whedon & Maurissa Tancharoen, “Marvel’s Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.” pilot co-writers (“Dollhouse,” “Dr.Horrible’s Sing-Along Blog”); Jeffrey Bell (“Angel,” “Alias”); and Jeph Loeb (“Smallville”) comes Marvel’s first TV series.  “Marvel’s Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.” is produced by ABC Studios and Marvel Television.

After the jump is the trailer make sure to check it out! 

Luke Evans Cast in The Crow Reboot!

Ok folks after months and I mean a whole lot of months of speculation and rumors on who will be portraying the unlucky Eric Draven in The Crow reboot has finally been cast! Luke Evans will fill the leather and makeup of The Crow. I will say this is actually a pretty great actor to take the role.

This reboot had a lot problems getting started with nobody getting locked down for the role. It was actually getting a big boost with having art of A-lister Bradley Cooper drawn in the role, this would likely have caused some problems with the die hard fans. It would make this film a little too mainstream and some films aren't meant for that. (this isn't one). That fell through, so we got rumors that X-Men star James McAvoy was in the running. While good idea, it wasn't meant to be. Then came my favorite choice of them all. Tom Hiddleston came into the mix with reports saying he wants to be it so bad. Well that was just internet blowing everything out of portion over a single meeting. You probably think I'm done listing off but your wrong. Last before casting was out there rumors of True Blood star Alexander Skarsgard, but those never became more than just that. So after I just explained to you the last year or so in rumors, you can see how hard it is in Hollywood.

First Official Pics of Jamie Foxx as Electro and Dane DeHaan as Harry Osborn

The Amazing Spider-Man 2 has been one of those always open with the fans kind of movies with stuff always being released on twitter by director Marc Webb and cast. Know we get something official from twitter! We get a first look at Jamie Foxx as Electro and Dane DeHaan as Harry Osborn. Busy last couple of days I would say!

Director Marc Webb tweeted "Day 52. My name is Max.". So that means this lucky fellow is Maxwell Dillion a.k.a. Electro. Love the yarn on the head. 

Dane DeHaan (what is it with everyone involved in this film having double letters in their name?!?!) tweeted "Ladies & Gentleman, FanBoys & FanGirls of all ages: I give you The #Amazing Harry Osborn."

More info to follow! I love how this film is shaping up, but the character of Max is different approach than expected but I can roll with it. Just as long as it doesn't go into Jim Carrey Riddler territory. Please

The Amazing Spider-Man 2 spins its web in theaters on May 2, 2014 

Rumor: Warner Bros. Wants Sons of Anarchy Star Charlie Hunnam as The Flash in Justice League Film

Warner Bros. has rumors just like Marvel. Theres are just a little more out there at the moment. Rumors are spreading that WB is already banking on Man of Steel being a hit and are doing some rough stuff with the Justice League movie like sketches and such. Well some of those sketches of the flash are reportedly looking pretty darn similar to up and coming Sons of Anarchy and Pacific Rim actor Charlie Hunnam. Crazy I know.

The rumors have been spreading and it is likely that the artist doing the sketches is a huge fan of Jax Teller or is WB looking at the actor to take the fastest man alive mantle too. Only time will tell, but keep an eye out on this one in future.

Pick & Pull: April 3, 2013 - Age of Ultron, Thanos Rising, Uber + More!

You know the drill fellow nerdisters (thats a world right?). Pick & Pull time is here and this week is very Marvel sided and independent sided. That isn't a bad thing at all. Marvel has some big stuff going down for the next few months and its all here now and its big. Also, we get a pretty decent sized new series. Check them out!

Highlights:

Age of Ultron #4 - Marvel has quite a big story on their hands with this series and its getting more epic every week. This week has some big turns and will likely start some fan fighting!

Thanos Rising #1 - with Ultron being a major book, why not give other publishers another punch with Thanos? He will have a huge part in Marvels future in comics and movies. We know that. Although, do we know that much about him? I think not. So Marvel has this sweet series to get us better aquatinted with the purple guy.

Uber #0 - I don't like how books do a #0, but this series made up with having a oversized issue that is very nice. All you really need to know is you have supersoliders and WWII.

Abe Sapien #1 - We love Hellboy and the whole universe he is in. We all love Abe. Great Idea give him his own ongoing series. Oh wait! They are doing that this week and it will be awesome!

Action Comics #19 - Here is a DC book that was in need of a lot of help. It has a new creative team behind it that hopefully can turn this forgettable series into a greatness and the first issue is shaping up nicely with them.

George Lucas Confirms Return of Hamill, Ford, and Fisher for Star Wars

George Lucas seems to not really be that secretive guy he used to be lately. The man has always been one to keep things under wraps until it was due time, but I think "not giving a S@#$" mood has finally set in after he sold Star Wars to Disney. He dropped some big news, I bet Disney was planning on announcing in a big conference or something.

George Lucas stated in a interview that Mark Hamill, Harrison Ford and Carrie Fisher will return for their respective roles in the Star Wars Episode VII.


"We had already signed Mark and Carrie and Harrison—or we were pretty much in final stages of negotiation," Lucas said. "So I called them to say, 'Look, this is what's going on.'" He pauses. "Maybe I'm not supposed to say that. I think they want to announce that with some big whoop-de-do, but we were negotiating with them." Then he adds: "I won't say whether the negotiations were successful or not."

More info to come in the future!

Awesome New Trailer for Oblivion starring Tom Cruise

Oblivion is really rising in ranks of my most anticipated movies of the year. The latest trailer just fuels that rising with some really great action and compelling story we didn't see in the first one. So check this trailer out it's pretty awesome.

Oblivion hits theaters on April 19th

Tom Cruise stars in Oblivion, an original and groundbreaking cinematic event from the director of TRON: Legacy and the producer of Rise of the Planet of the Apes. On a spectacular future Earth that has evolved beyond recognition, one man’s confrontation with the past will lead him on a journey of redemption and discovery as he battles to save mankind.

Matthew Vaughn Producing Fantastic Four Reboot

Last year, 20th Century Fox hired Mark Millar (writer of Kick-Ass and The Ultimates) to be a consultant on all of their Marvel Comic film adaptations. Well, this man has been busy over that time with getting all the players together and making magic happen. Well, he tweeted some very interesting news that Deadline has confirmed (but I still didn't doubt it coming from the main man himself).

Millar tweeted this:

Just off the phone with Fox and some excellent news - Matthew Vaughn is producing Josh Trank's Fantastic Four reboot!
— Mark Millar (@mrmarkmillar) February 22, 2013

That makes me very excited! Trank had a fantastic (see what I did there) first film with Chronicle and I expect great things with his take on Fantastic Four, but now that Vaughn is stepping in to produce, I am  so excited now! Vaughn has an amazing record with us comic geeks doing X-Men: First Class and Kick-Ass. So expect some big news in future of this film.

We are still speculating that 20th Century Fox wants to a single universe, much in the way Marvel is doing in house with their properties. It makes perfect sense for them to do that with them owning Fantastic Four and X-Men.

Do you guys want to see Fantastic Four rebooted? Or Vaughn producing?

Harrison Ford Playing Han Solo in Episode 7? Not Yet

Rumors on the hugely anticipated 7th film in the Star Wars series have been everywhere since they announced that they will make it a new trilogy. Well, now we hear a rumor that has some good meat to it and kind of makes sense to do. The news is Harrison Ford is talking about returning to the Star Wars universe as Han Solo!

This is just huge news because it will give us ideas where Disney will go with the new movies. Rumors since we get a return of the original series, we will see the film set 35 years in future and eventually give the films to the new cast to do their thing. I can buy into that, but please don't let these prequel films happen..yet. We need to move forward at this time in the world not backwards.

The news broke earlier saying he was cast as the part, but now the news is changing to he's in talks with EW writer Geoff Boucher tweeted this:

Harrison Ford deal? My source says not yet."It will not be for weeks and perhaps months."
— Geoff Boucher (@geoffboucher) February 15, 2013

So, there is still talk of it happening! Just going to take some time. 

More news to come  

Albert Brooks Set to Return for Finding Nemo 2

Albert Brooks is set to return for Finding Nemo along with director Andrew Stanton! This is pretty big news because Nemo co-star Ellen Degeneres already said she signed up to reprise Dory a while back, but we have been waiting for Albert Brooks to get back. Well he has finally given into the house of mouse. 

Deadline is saying he closed the deal at "a fat deal", that sounds like some pretty big bucks. So we can expect to see Dory and Marlin go on another adventure together, but to save Nemo again? No news on what the story or characters or even a release date yet. This film is very under-wraps just like every other Pixar film. 

More news to come 

New Trailer for Rob Zombie's The Lords of Salem

The new trailer for Rob Zombie's new horror film The Lords of Salem has arrived online and well it's directed towards more normal audience than the last trailer, but still very good. 

Rob Zombie has been working on this film for quite some time now and I'm actually more intrigued by this now, being I'm a huge fan of Devil's Rejects and sorta Halloween but still a big fan of this guy. 

Synopsis: From the singular mind of horror maestro Rob Zombie comes a chilling plunge into a nightmare world where evil runs in the blood. The Lords of Salem tells the tale of Heidi (Sheri Moon Zombie), a radio station DJ living in Salem, Massachusetts, who receives a strange wooden box containing a record, a “gift from the Lords.” Heidi listens, and the bizarre sounds within the grooves immediately trigger flashbacks of the town’s violent past. Is Heidi going mad, or are the “Lords of Salem” returning for revenge on modern-day Salem?

The Lords of Salem hit theaters on April 19th

CW Developing Smallville-Style Wonder Woman Series 'Amazon'

Wonder Woman is trying very hard to get back in big leagues with Batman and Superman. We had a failed pilot for NBC last year, A script is in-development for a feature film and she will show up in the Justice League film in 2015. Well, folks she has been granted a new development treatment for The CW.

I made this so don't think it's official..I know its pretty legit looking too.

The CW and Warner Bros. Tv are developing a new tv series based around the earlier years/origins of Wonder Woman in the style of Smallville. The Series is called Amazon and has attached the great Allan Heinberg to helm the script and take it from there. Heinberg is ,possibly, the best person for the job, being a huge tv writer for female leads (The O.C., Gilmore Girls, and Grey's Anatomy) . Also he is a great comic book writer with works including Young Avengers, and, interesting enough, the Wonder Woman series. (Yep he knows his Amazonians well).

It should be noted that the series Amazon has not been picked up for production of the series, but it's only in developmental stages and hopefully gets a great script in and pilot filmed. I actually want to see this one.

Awesome: Assassin's Creed Meets Pakour in Real Life!

This is a pretty awesome fan-made video of Assassin's Creed (AC) being made in real life doing stunts from the game in a city and off of buildings doing the sensation pakour. (I guess that is all the games are really based around is parkour.) Check out Ronnie Shalvis playing AC's Altaïr Ibn-La'Ahad doing scary and cool stunts in a city. Also, don't try this at home because he makes it look like its so easy and all of us normal people feel like we can do it too. Guess what? we can't heads up *saving your life right now you can thank me later*.

Check out the behind the scenes feature to see how they did it all and that beautiful CGI shot at beginning.

Step Up 4 Teaser Trailer

So I don't know about you but I'm a avid fan of the Step Up series, don't get me wrong the plot is just horrible on them all but the dance sequences are amazing. Step 3D was actually a pretty awesome movie visually. So now we got Step Up 4 not 4D (thank god because we don't want sweat in our faces) coming this summer. The plot is probably bad but the backdrop of Miami and we will get flash mobs people! flash mobs! dancing to the extreme right there.

Step Up 4 dances into theaters July 27

The Crow Reboot Concept Art Online

If you were like me and really were weary of the news they were going to remake the classic The Crow, then you might be surprised at how cool it would have looked with director Juan Carlos Fresnadillo (28 Weeks later) and mega-star Bradley Cooper (The Hangover) still attached.

The reboot had an amazing director attached and that was cool at first. Then they announced Bradley Cooper was attached to be the main character that returns from the dead as "the Crow". That news scared me and I'm sure hoards of other fans of the series. I just couldn't see the handsome blue-eyed player as the Crow. Well, we have been blessed with some of the concept art of Cooper as The Crow from site ShockTillYouDrop.com. And it looks pretty bad ass. Too bad we lost the director then the main star. Who will replace him? no idea. 

Here is the cool looking concept art of Bradley Cooper as The Crow that was never made. Just click them to make them bigger.

Opening Sequence for John Carpenter's The Ward

Some italian horror site Splatter Container has released the opening sequence for the upcoming John Carpenter's The Ward. It's kind of sad that we here in U.S. will get to see the movie in bits n pieces before it gets released. Many scenes have shown up online in their entirely.

John Carpenter's The Ward will be released sometime in future.
