Witchblade Teaser Poster. And Yes, She is Half-Naked.
No one has been cast yet, no one has been hired to direct it, and as far as I know, no one has been hired to write it, but that’s not going to stop Platinum Studios and Top Cow from slapping a very, very early teaser poster for their upcoming comic book movie “Witchblade” together [...]

“Iron Man” has the distinction of being the first in Marvel’s new line of Marvel Studios-produced movies to make it to the big screen. It will soon be followed by the reboot of the “Incredible Hulk” with Edward Norton. Marvel has already announced a slew of other comic book properties following in their footsteps, including [...]

This latest trailer for Guillermo Del Toro’s “Hellboy 2: The Golden Army” was supposedly shown during the American Idol finale last night on FOX. I didn’t see it, but the studio was nice enough to make a widget of the trailer for the movie sites to distribute. Take a look at it below. More comedy, [...]

Speaking of Marvel… Apparently when Kevin Feige, head of Marvel Studios, sent out invitations to online bloggers for a meet and greet, he forgot to send mine out. That’s okay, Kevin, next time, my man. In any case, Feige took questions and dished out answers about Marvel’s two high-profile movies coming up very soon — [...]

“Runaways”? What the heck are the “Runaways”? They’re a new (at least new in comparison to Marvel’s stable of soon-to-be-movie characters) comic book from Marvel, created by writer Brian K. Vaughan and artist Adrian Alphona, and follows a new group of teen superheroes who are, as the title implies, runaways from home. Vaughan is currently [...]

Timur Bekmambetov’s Hollywood debut, the big screen movie adaptation of Mark Millar’s gun happy, blood-soaked “Wanted” is opening June 27, 2008, and the studio has begun releasing clips from the movie. The first clip (below) has James McAvoy’s hapless civilian fleeing an assassin when he’s rescued, in high style, by Angelina Jolie’s character, Fox, who [...]

My guess is that “Wanted” will probably do okay at the box office when it’s finally released on June 27, 2008, but it won’t be a major hit. Chances are, it’ll be good enough to spit out a direct-to-DVD sequel or two, maybe, but the film just won’t have a whole lot of draw for [...]

Let’s face it: we all knew Sony wasn’t just going to let the Spider-Man franchise die. Even without returning director Sam Raimi, or returning stars Tobey Maguire and Kirsten Dunst (and all three are looking like they want out), the franchise WILL go on come hell or high water. When movies make as much money [...]

Frank Castle, aka the Punisher (this time played by Ray Stevenson, taking over for Thomas Jane), is back, and he’s ready to put up an impressive bodycount. From everything I’ve read, and straight from the mouth of director Lexi Alexander, the Punisher we’ll be seeing in “War Zone” is supposed to take his cue from [...]

I suppose technically Guillermo del Toro’s “Hellboy 2: The Golden Army” qualifies as horror, what with its demons and nightmarish creatures running amok and what have you, but is it really? The films are less about being scary than they are about being action-adventure-ish, in my opinion. And funny. It’s got a lot of humor [...]

Haven’t heard a lot about the “X-Men” spin-off movie about Magneto for a while, which is probably on purpose. The Powers That Be are probably waiting to see if the Wolverine spin-off sells before they start on the Magneto version, and all this pre-production work on the movie, such as sketch drawings and CGI prep [...]

Forget for one moment that Marvel’s announced “Thor” movie no longer has a director, or even a star except a rumor about Brad Pitt being offered the role. What it does have is a sorta finished script by Mark Protosevic (”I am Legend”). Now forget all that stuff, and just concentrate on this question: Rumor [...]
