I applaud any director who goes through the effort of using creature effects to create their monsters, rather than going the CG-route. It seems like CG is used for pretty much everything nowadays, even so far as using it instead of squibs for blood in movies. Director Jon Knautz is big on the same line […]
Recently released on DVD/Blu-Ray/Digital Copy/On Demand/LP/8-Track/Stone Tablet/Whatever is the newest animated feature from DC’s line of DTV flicks, Green Lantern: Emerald Knights. Despite there being a pretty great Green Lantern: First Flight movie released in 2009, this film doesn’t tie into that one, and attempts to try to fit them in the same continuity are, […]
Licensing Expo 2011 is currently going on in Las Vegas and, courtesy of Bleeding Cool, we get our first (kinda blurry) peek at the Avengers from the upcoming Joss Whedon movie. Thor and Black Widow look, essentially, the same, but I do notice some subtle changes on the Captain America and Iron Man costumes (more […]
This week, a lot of folks called in sick… so they didn’t get to join us for our Thwipster.com conversation. They didn’t get to lament the sad news of NBC’s Wonder Woman decision. And they didn’t get to ruminate over the Smallville series finale. That’s fine. Podcasting is done by those who show up. So […]
Historians will designate the time we find ourselves in as A.T. (After Thor). That’s right, we now live in a world with not just a Thor movie, but an awesome Thor movie. All of your Funnybooks hosts saw it and in this week’s episode, we tell you all about it, Free Comic Book Day and […]
This is quite possibly the most hilarious concept I’ve ever seen. “Rappers Review Movies.” Except, ya know, they get the INSANE CLOWN POSSE to review Water for Elephants. That’s just…why? Still…pretty funny video: MTV Shows Is it sad that they actually sat through the entire thing?
There are a lot of Marvel cartoons that I never got around to seeing, but were always curious about. Shows like Spider-Man Unlimited, Silver Surfer, the 90’s Iron Man and Fantastic Four cartoons. Some are available on DVD, but most only have one season available, or, even worse, just a couple of episodes. Thankfully, Marvel […]
Despite the fact that watching Transformers 2 was the equivalent of two and a half hours of eye rape, TF3 (as it’s being called in promo images) looks soooooo damn good. If you’re not seeing Fast Five this weekend (and really…why aren’t you?), you can check out the trailer for the new Transformers flick by […]
Despite my love for BBC’s programming (though I’ve sadly missed the majority of the latest season of Primeval), I’ve never, in my life, seen a single episode of Doctor Who. I’ve always been curious about it, but, for no particular reason, just never got around to watching the damn thing, despite everyone telling me how […]
So not many people know that, concurrent with production on Paranormal Activity 2, there was an alternative sequel being filmed in Japan, entitled Paranormal Activity: Tokyo Night. Released in November 2010, and directed by Toshikazu Nagae, the film follows a brother and sister in Japan who are dealing with strange happenings very similar to those […]
