Last month, 20th Century Fox premiered some new footage from the James Mangold-directed film The Wolverine at CinemaCon. The footage includes a really great shot of Wolverine fighting the Silver Samurai, like you see in the screenshot above. This Con trailer is so cool it makes me want to fight Hugh Jackman for fun. I think I could take him. 

The movie also stars Will Yun Lee, Svetlana Khodchenkova, Hiroyuki Sanada, Hal Yamanouchi, Tao Okamoto, Rila Fukushima, and Brian Tee. The Wolverine comes out on July 26th, 2013.

Based on the celebrated comic book arc, the film takes Wolverine (Jackman) to modern day Japan. Out of his depth in an unknown world, he will face a host of unexpected and deadly opponents in a life-or-death battle that will leave him forever changed. Vulnerable for the first time and pushed to his physical and emotional limits, he confronts not only lethal samurai steel but also his inner struggle against his own immortality.

This Iron Man 3 sweded trailer is seriously the best sweded movie trailer that has ever been made, and it comes to us from Thailand. The trailer was created FEDFE, and the production is both impressive and hilarious! Even if you don't like watching these sweded movie trailers, this is one I know you'll enjoy! It had me busting up laughing. Check it out!

Here's our first look at Ben Kingsley as Mazer Rackham in the Gavin Hood-directed adaptation of Orson Scott Card's Ender's Game. Rackham trains Ender in the movie. The image was released in anticipation of the first trailer for the movie which is set to be released on May 7th. Here's what Kingsley had to say about the character in an interview with EW,

In the script, which I think is beautifully written, what come across is the authority and mystery. There’s quite a lot said about him in the story  before you see him — by the recruits and by his fellow officers — and that’s useful as far as preparations.

He goes on to talk about the tattoo on his face saying,

Every gesture in the tattoo carries family history, family struggles – it’s your past. I was so enthralled. He’s in quite a contained, stylized uniform but then this wonderful face tells his warrior history.

The movie also stars Asa Butterfield, Harrison Ford, Hailee Steinfeld, Abigail Breslin, Viola Davis, Nonso Anozie, Stevie Ray Dillmore, Andrea Powell, Moises Arias, Conor Carroll, Aramis Knight, Brendan Meyer, Jimmy "Jax" Pinchak, Suraj Parthasarathy, and Khylin Rhambo.

The movie is set to be released in theaters in IMAX on November 1st, 2013.

In the near future, a hostile alien race called the Formics have attacked Earth. If not for the legendary heroics of International Fleet Commander Mazer Rackham (Ben Kingsley), all would have been lost. In preparation for the next attack, the highly esteemed Colonel Hyrum Graff (Harrison Ford) and the International Military are training only the best young minds to find the future Mazer.

Ender Wiggin (Asa Butterfield), a shy but strategically brilliant boy, is recruited to join the elite.  Arriving at Battle School, Ender quickly and easily masters increasingly difficult challenges and simulations, distinguishing himself and winning respect amongst his peers. Ender is soon ordained by Graff as the military’s next great hope, resulting in his promotion to Command School. Once there, he’s trained by Mazer Rackham himself to lead his fellow soldiers into an epic battle that will determine the future of Earth and save the human race.

Check out this radical series of of geeky hockey jerseys created by Canadian artist, geek, and hockey enthusiast Dave Delisle. Each one is based on a film, TV show, comic book character, or video game. If I had to choose a team to be on from this set, I'd have to be on team Boomstick. There's a ton of great jersey designs that I know you'll love! You'll have to look them over and tell us what team you'd be on. I wish there was a real geek hockey league with teams like this that we could root for. 

A jersey isn’t just a glorified sweater. Or some sweaty uniform that gets worn during a game. Jerseys are much more than that — they’re the tuxedo of geeks.

Worn all over the world, for any occasion, they demand attention. But something has always been missing from jerseys, a bit of je ne sais quoi, you might say..

Select jersey designs are available to purchase online.

A new violent and bloody red-band trailer has been released for the Eli Roth produced earthquake horror thriller Aftershock. Roth not only produced the Nicolás López directed film, but he also co-wrote the film and stars in it, as well.

The story for the film was inspired by the Chilean earthquake, and it follows "a group of travelers who are in an underground nightclub in Chile when a massive earthquake hits." Their exciting night quickly turns into an insane nightmare when they leave the club to face a world of chaos and carnage. The city is destroyed, and the inmates from a nearby insane asylum are unleashed. It looks like a gory good time!

The movie also stars Andrea Osvárt, Ariel Levy, Nicolás Martínez, and Lorenza Izzo. Check out the red-band trailer and tell us what you think! Dimension Film will release the film on May 10th!

If you happen to have $8,499.99 sitting around, just waiting to be spent on something really cool and geeky, here's a life size Iron Man Mark 42 figure that's available for purchase. If it makes it easier for you, they even offer a monthly payment plan of $1700 a month. 

As cool as this thing is, I don't think I would even consider buying it unless I can at least put it on and fly around in it. For that price, I could get myself a sweet ass motorcycle or something. 

Here's a description fo the figure: 

Sideshow Collectibles introduces the Iron Man MARK 42 Life-Size Figure from Beast Kingdom. Marvel Studios' blockbuster release Iron Man 3, is coming to theaters in just a few weeks, and you can add the newest Iron Man armor to your collection. Over 7 feet tall, this breathtaking Life-Size piece is individually painted with high gloss automotive paint for a stunning finish. This film-accurate recreation features brilliant LED light up eyes, arc reactor, palm and display base. The Iron Man MARK 42 Life Size Figure is sure to be the centerpiece of any collector's display.

This is the first trailer for the teenage assassin thriller Violet and Daisy, which stars Saoirse Ronan (The Host) and Alexis Bledel (Sin City). The movie was directed by Precious writer Geoffrey Fletcher, and it also stars James Gandolfini. The two actresses play a pair of young assassins whose target proves to be much more involved than they had initially planned. I initially wasn't really interested in seeing this movie, but this trailer shows us a solid looking film with great visuals. The cinematography is impressive. There's no release date yet for the film, but maybe it will come out sometime this summer. Check out the trailer!

Violet (Alexis Bledel) and Daisy (Saoirse Ronan) are a pair of gum-cracking teenage assassins who casually snuff out crime figures in New York City, distracted only by the fact that a concert by their favorite pop idol Barbie Sunday has suddenly been canceled.

Determined to raise cash for some Barbie Sunday dresses, the duo takes on a new hit job, only to discover a kind of reckoning in the form of sad-sack shut-in (James Gandolfini) who is dying alone of terminal cancer. He persuades the duo to kill him out of mercy, prompting an odyssey of self-examination that catapults the junior enforcers into a world beyond Barbie Sunday and bullets for pay. 

From Academy Award-winning screenwriter Geoffrey Fletcher (PRECIOUS) comes a mesmerizing hybrid of New York City crime fable and existential coming-of-age drama. In VIOLET & DAISY teenage kicks match wits with adult-world turmoil, placing three wounded souls into a line of fire none expected — themselves.

I don't know how I missed this until today, but here's Tobey Maguire's badass screen test for Sam Raimi's original Spider-Man film. As you'll see, it's heavily influenced by Bruce Lee. It gives us a very different vision of Raimi's Spider-Man, one I'm kind of sad that we'll never see. At least the vision lives on in this test footage. Check it out!

Here's the first international trailer for 20th Century Fox's CGI animated adventure Walking With Dinosaurs. They've made a realistic looking movie that tells its story with no dialogue and limited narrative. The movie doesn't interest me at all, but maybe there's some kids out there who will enjoy it. The movie was directed by Barry Cook (Arthur Christmas, Mulan) and Neil Nightingale, and the story follows two brothers looking to follow in their father's footsteps which leads to a showdown with dinosaurs in the Arctic North.

For the first time in movie history, audiences will truly see and feel what it was like when dinosaurs ruled the Earth. "Walking with Dinosaurs" is the ultimate immersive experience, utilizing state of the art 3D to put audiences in the middle of a thrilling and epic prehistoric world, where an underdog dino triumphs to become a hero for the ages.

The movie comes out on December 20th, 2013. Check out the international trailer and let us know if it looks like something you'd want to check out. 

Our friends at Latino-Review are reporting another big Marvel casting rumor today saying that 42 star Chadwick Boseman is the studio's top choice to play Black Panther. 

The choice makes sense for Marvel as Kevin Feige is known for going after up-and-coming actors and turning them into big stars. Chris Hemsworth is a perfect example of this. Getting actors at this stage in the game also allows Marvel to sign them up for multiple films on the cheap. 

Boseman was fantastic in 42. He's a solid actor, and if he ends up landing the role of Black Panther, I think he'd be perfect for it. There's been no confirmation of the news. There's no deal set in place. He's just at the top of the studio's very short list. 

We've been hearing for awhile that Marvel was looking to make a Black Panther movie. If this is true, then they must be gearing up to finally give us the movie! It probably won't happen until Phase 3 of Marvel's cinematic plan, but ya never know! He might show up in The Avengers 2. 

What do you all think about Boseman possibly playing Black Panther? 

It looks like we may have our first look at Aleksei Sytsevich a.k.a. The Rhino in The Amazing Spider-Man 2. Apparently, this is Paul Giamatti's stunt double, but it does show us what the character is going to look like. 

The photos come from a big chase sequence that was shot recently in streets of Rochester, New York. The sequence involved the theft of an Oscorp armored van by some villains in a tow truck, and The Rhino was the driver.

There's a fun video below from Seven Webheads that points out more than enough details to prove to you that this is, in fact, The Rhino. To be honest, all you really have to do is look at the face. I still enjoyed listening to this Russian guy excitedly talk about it though! 

Iron Man 2 wasn't the best Marvel movie that's been made, but even though it had its story issues I thought it was still an entertaining film. This new Honest Trailer from Screen Junkies points out exactly why I think that as well, which I thought was funny. 

Iron Man 2 should have been so much better, but they ended up rushing through it with a half-assed script. The video comes with the following note,

Before you see Iron Man 3, revisit the film that should lower your expectations... Iron Man 2! The forgettable placeholder while they worked on the script for The Avengers.

Enjoy the latest honest trailer! 

A new featurette for Star Trek Into Darkness has been released that focuses on Benedict Cumberbatch's John Harrison talking about Zoe Saldana's Lieutenant Uhura and pointing out her weaknesses. It features a good amount of new footage which includes our first look at a Klingon without a helmet. And guess what? It looks like a Klingon.

When the crew of the Enterprise is called back home, they find an unstoppable force of terror from within their own organization has detonated the fleet and everything it stands for, leaving our world in a state of crisis. With a personal score to settle, Captain Kirk leads a manhunt to a war-zone world to capture a one man weapon of mass destruction. As our heroes are propelled into an epic chess game of life and death, love will be challenged, friendships will be torn apart, and sacrifices must be made for the only family Kirk has left: his crew.

The movie hits theaters on May 17th, 2013!

During an interview with Jon Stewart on The Daily Show, Robert Downey Jr. dropped a little gem about his continuance with the Marvel universe. When asked if he would be back for more, he said:

I don't know… 

I had a long contract with them, and now we're gonna renegotiate.

He then proceeded to wink multiple times. It's not a definitive no, however; it is not a yes. At least he's having discussions with Marvel about returning! So if they can work something out, maybe we'll see him in one or two more Marvel films! Watch the clip of the interview and let us know what you think of his reaction.

Of course, I don’t think that anyone else could fill RDJ’s shoes as Tony Stark. If he doesn’t sign another contract, do you think it would be worth recasting the character? 

Until next time…

Billy Out!

Captain America: The Winter Solider is currently shooting in Los Angeles and we have our first look at Anthony Mackie in costume as The Falcon filming some action scenes in front of a giant green screen. I assume the wings will be added in post-production. The costume looks like I expected. Maybe we'll see a couple different variations of it throughout the film. What do you think of the military style outfit that he's wearing here? 

Captain America: The Winter Soldier picks up where Marvel’s The Avengers left off, as Steve Rogers struggles to embrace his role in the modern world and teams up with Natasha Romanoff, aka Black Widow, to battle a powerful yet shadowy enemy in present-day Washington, D.C.

The Anthony and Joe Russo directed movie also stars Chris Evans, Scarlett Johansson, Sebastian Stan, Cobie Smulders, Frank Grillo, Georges St-Pierre, Hayley Atwell, Toby Jones, Emily VanCamp and Maximiliano Hernández with Samuel L. Jackson and Robert Redford. The movie is set to be released on April 4th, 2014.

You're going to want to watch this Russian trailer for Disney's The Lone Ranger because it's freakin' awesome! There's a lot of exciting new footage featured in this thing! The whole trailer is in Russian, so I have no idea what is being said, but it doesn't really matter because it's still fun to watch.

The Gore Verbinski directed movie stars Johnny Depp, Armie Hammer, Tom Wilkinson, William Fichtner, Barry Pepper, James Badge Dale, Ruth Wilson, and Helena Bonham Carter. The Lone Ranger hits July 3rd, 2013. Enjoy the trailer, and here's to hoping the movie doesn't suck! 

From producer Jerry Bruckheimer and director Gore Verbinski, the filmmaking team behind the blockbuster “Pirates of the Caribbean” franchise, comes Disney/Jerry Bruckheimer Films’ “The Lone Ranger,” a thrilling adventure infused with action and humor, in which the famed masked hero is brought to life through new eyes. Native American spirit warrior Tonto (Johnny Depp) recounts the untold tales that transformed John Reid (Armie Hammer), a man of the law, into a legend of justice–taking the audience on a runaway train of epic surprises and humorous friction as the two unlikely heroes must learn to work together and fight against greed and corruption.

Natalie Portman and Michael Fassbender have both joined a new big screen adaptation of William Shakespeare's Macbeth. Portman is set to play Lady Macbeth, and Fassbender is set the play the title role. 

The new film is being directed by director Justin Kurzel (Snowtown). The movie will retain the play's 11th century setting and will also use the original dialogue. The story is about a ruthlessly ambitious Scottish lord who takes the throne with the help of his scheming wife and three witches. The report says that the script "is understood to be a visceral approach to the story including significant battle scenes."

Fassbender and Portman are going to make a fantastic team in this adaptation. They played an onscreen couple in Terrence Malick's untitled project that shot last year. They were also supposed to work together on Jane Got a Gun, which the actress is currently shooting, but Fassbender left the project before it started production. Portman will next be seen as Jane Foster in Thor: The Dark World.

The latest poster for Pacific Rim features the American Gipsy Danger Jaeger front and center with the other Jaeger robot warriors in the distance marching into battle.

The movie hits theaters on July 12th, 2013. Make sure to watch the Con trailer that was recently released by clicking here.

The movie stars Charlie Hunnam (Sons of Anarchy), Idris Elba (Thor), Rinko Kikuchi (The Brothers Bloom), Charlie Day (Horrible Bosses), and Ron Perlman (Hellboy). The ensemble cast also includes Max Martini, Robert Kazinsky, Clifton Collins, Jr., Burn Gorman, Larry Joe Campbell, DiegoKlattenhoff, and Brad William Henke. 

When legions of monstrous creatures, known as Kaiju, started rising from the sea, a war began that would take millions of lives and consume humanity’s resources for years on end. To combat the giant Kaiju, a special type of weapon was devised: massive robots, called Jaegers, which are controlled simultaneously by two pilots whose minds are locked in a neural bridge. But even the Jaegers are proving nearly defenseless in the face of the relentless Kaiju. On the verge of defeat, the forces defending mankind have no choice but to turn to two unlikely heroes—a washed up former pilot and an untested trainee — who are teamed to drive a legendary but seemingly obsolete Jaeger from the past. Together, they stand as mankind’s last hope against the mounting apocalypse.

Marvel has released the twentieth TV spot for Iron Man 3 featuring new footage and some praise from the critics. There's also a new featurette for the movie that focuses on The Mandarin. Marvel President Kevin Feige, Robert Downey Jr., and Ben Kingsley all talk about the character and what drives him in his madness. 

Iron Man 3 comes out this weekend, so make sure to check it out!

Marvel Studios’ “Iron Man 3″ pits brash-but-brilliant industrialist Tony Stark/Iron Man against an enemy whose reach knows no bounds. When Stark finds his personal world destroyed at his enemy’s hands, he embarks on a harrowing quest to find those responsible. This journey, at every turn, will test his mettle. With his back against the wall, Stark is left to survive by his own devices, relying on his ingenuity and instincts to protect those closest to him. As he fights his way back, Stark discovers the answer to the question that has secretly haunted him: does the man make the suit or does the suit make the man? 

Who would have thought Kelsey Grammer would make a good villain? Well, if you have seen his Starz series Boss, then you know the guy can be evil as hell if he wants to be. He's so good on that show. The actor is looking to harness the villain within him again as he's just been cast as the bad guy in Michael Bay's Transformers 4.

According to the report, Grammer will play a character named Harold Attinger, who is described as a "counter intelligence guy". I have no doubt that Grammer is going to make a ruthless villain in the movie. He joins the previously cast Mark Wahlberg, Jack Reynor, Stanley Tucci, and Nicola Peltz.

There are not many plot details on the film yet, but everything is changing for it, such as the cast and robot designs. The whole thing is going to have a different look and feel. Bay also described the fourth film as being a "chase from Hell." It's set to be released June 27th, 2014. 

Are you excited to hear that Grammer will be playing a villain in this movie?
