I could write a bunch of stuff about how excited I am for the awesomeness of Guardians of the Galaxy, but instead I'll let the trailer do the talking. So without further ado, I give you the full trailer for Guardians of the Galaxy

An action-packed, epic space adventure, Marvel's "Guardians of the Galaxy" expands the Marvel Cinematic Universe into the cosmos, where brash adventurer Peter Quill finds himself the object of an unrelenting bounty hunt after stealing a mysterious orb coveted by Ronan, a powerful villain with ambitions that threaten the entire universe. To evade the ever-persistent Ronan, Quill is forced into an uneasy truce with a quartet of disparate misfits--Rocket, a gun-toting raccoon; Groot, a tree-like humanoid; the deadly and enigmatic Gamora; and the revenge-driven Drax the Destroyer. But when Quill discovers the true power of the orb and the menace it poses to the cosmos, he must do his best to rally his ragtag rivals for a last, desperate stand--with the galaxy's fate in the balance.

Haley Joel Osment (The Sixth Sense) )has been cast in a supporting role in Doug Ellin's Entourage movie. He will join Jeremy Piven, Billy Bob Thornton, Adrian Grenier, Kevin Dillon, Kevin Connolly, and Jerry Ferrara along with the rest of the original HBO cast. There's no word on who he'll be playing, but I guess there's always a chance he could play himself.

Classic Movies Reimagined as Traditional Ottoman Paintings

Artist Murat Palta has created this wonderfully awesome series of illustrations featuring classic films in the style of classic Ottoman paintings. They were created for the artist's graduation thesis, and this is what he said,

It all started 2 years ago with an experiment to blend traditional ‘oriental’ (Ottoman) motifs and contemporary ‘western’ cinema. After a positive response to "Ottoman Star Wars", I decided to take the theme further, and developed more film posters using the same technique. 

Combining global with local, traditional with contemporary, and adding a bit of humor made it a fun and rewarding experience for me. According to my marks that I got from the project, the teachers' opinion were the same. 

The movies featured here include Kill Bill, Scarface, The Godfather, Star Wars, The Shining, Inception, Terminator 2, Pulp Fiction, Goodfellas, and Clockwork Orange.

The Simpsons is making a fully LEGO animated episode. It will be the 550th episode of the animated series, and it's called "Brick Like Me." Fox has announced that it will air on Sunday, May 4th, and we even have a little synopsis of the episode for you.

Homer wakes up in a world where his family and everyone in Springfield are made of LEGOs. He then must “put together” how he got there and somehow figure out how to get home.

Sounds like it will be a good one! A few weeks ago LEGO also announced that they will be releasing a Simpsons-themed set. There's a lot of LEGOness going around these days, and with the help of the hugely popular The LEGO Movie, it looks like the world is going to get even more LEGOfied.

Funny or Die has released a funny comedy sketch featuring a Jesse Eisenberg impersonator auditioning for Zack Snyder's Batman Vs. Superman. The guy does a great job capturing mannerisms that we're used to seeing in the characters Eisenberg has played. It's going to be really interesting to see how he actually portrays the classic villain in the film.

Walking Dead star Norman Reedus is also set to star in the Robert Kirkman-produced sci-fi thriller Air. This is the first movie to be produced Kirkman, and Djimon Hounsou will star alongside Reedus.

This sounds like it could be a great little low-budget sci-fi movie. The story is set in "an underground cryogenic facility after a nuclear fall-out renders the atmosphere unbreathable. Air centers on its two custodial workers (Reedus, Hounsou) who take care of the cryogenically sleeping personnel that are to re-establish society but they struggle to preserve their own sanity and lives while maintaining the extremely fragile environment of the last livable place on earth."

The script for the movie was written by Christian Cantamessa, co-writer and lead designer for video games such as Red Dead Redemption and Grand Theft Auto: San AndreasChris Pasetto will make his feature directorial debut with this movie.

Fox has cast Jada Pinkett Smith in their Batman prequel series Gotham. She will play Fish Mooney, "a sadistic gangster with street smarts and a short temper." She will basically be Penguin's boss. Smith is a solid actress, and she'll make a great addition to the series.

The show will focus on a younger version of James Gordon, who is being played by Ben McKenzie. Other cast members include Donal Logue as Detective Harvey Bullock, Zabryna Guevara as Captain Essen, Erin Richards as Barbara Kean, Sean Pertwee as Alfred Pennyworth, and Robin Lord Taylor as Oswald Cobblepot a.k.a the Penguin.

The Raid 2: Berandal kicked all kinds of insane ass! If you liked the first movie, there's no doubt that you'll be completely blown away by the sequel. The movie was so freakin' amazing that I saw it twice while I was at Sundance. Both times were mind-blowing experiences. The action is unlike anything you've ever seen before. It's way better than the first movie, and the first movie was spectacular. 

Thanks to director Gareth Evans we have a new poster for the movie to share with you.  Make sure to read our review for the film here, and check out the trailer for it here

Paramount Pictures and director Alan Taylor have official cast Jai Courtney in the role of Kyle Reese in Terminator: Genesis. He wasn't my top choice for the part, but it's not surprising that they gave it to him. Other actors up for the role included Boyd Holbrook (The Host), Tom Cocquerel, Wilson Bethel (Heart of Dixie), and Sam Reid (Hatfields and McCoys).

Courtney will join Arnold SchwarzeneggerGame Of Thrones‘ Emilia Clarke as Sarah Connor, and Zero Dark Thirty’s Jason Clarke as her son, John Connor.

The this is the first film in what is supposed to be a new trilogy, and it will end the story James Cameron started about Skynet’s battle with the resistance.

Comedian Jerry Seinfeld recently showed up on The Tonight Show to perform a hilarious stand-up bit focusing on phone technology and the U.S. Postal Service. I've been a huge fan of Seinfeld for such a long time, and it's so awesome to see him still doing great stand-up comedy. Watching this video made me realize how much I missed seeing him do his thing. The guy definitely hasn't lost his funny bone.

This is the trailer for a great looking, hand-drawn, animated short film called "Confusion Through Sand." The story centers on a nineteen year old kid who "finds himself alone in a hostile desert, scared as hell and trained to react." 

The film is 11 minutes long and it's set to premiere as part of the Animated Shorts Competition program at SXSW 2014. The short was directed by 26-year-old Danny Madden, and it looks like it will be an intense bit of animated filmmaking.

Seth Green on Why Ben Affleck Is Not a Good Batman Choice

As I'm sure you all know by now, Seth Green is a huge fanboy who cares about fanboy things, and he recently weighed in on the controversial topic of Ben Affleck's casting as Batman in Zack Snyder's Man of Steel sequel. Fans are split on this casting decision, and Green falls on the side of those who are NOT fans of Affleck in the role of Batman. In a recent interview with Larry King Now the actor explained,

“Modern mainstream is accepting of interpretations of these characters with more gravitas, you know. We’re past the time of Adam West’s kind of goofy interpretation of Batman.

"You gotta remember that at the core of that character, Batman’s a crazy person. Batman has no powers. Batman is a rich, screwed up kid whose parents were killed in front of him.

"If this movie is meant to be the idealistic alien, humans before all else Superman, and this is supposed to be the grizzled weathered Batman who’s been living in Gotham, fighting crime himself for 10 years, you need a guy who’s older, you need a guy who’s got more weight, you need a guy that a Henry Cavill Superman is gonna be actually scared of.” 

He made some really good points there, but King came back at Green saying, “Affleck is a very good actor, and you’re supposed to act." To that Green replied,

“Yes, but, there is only so much that you can act a role before people are or are not going to believe you in that role.

"I’m never going to play, um, you know, an MMA fighter, because I’d step into the ring with an actual MMA fighter like Batista and I wouldn’t look correct.”

I still think there's a chance that Affleck can pull this off. If he doesn't… there is going to be a fan uprising like we've never seen before. You can watch the interview below. 

James Gunn Breaks Down GUARDIANS OF THE GALAXY Trailer

Last night, Marvel unleashed the first trailer for director James Gunn's Guardians of the Galaxy, and it seems like the majority of fans loved what they saw. I know I did! This movie looks like it going to be ridiculous, adrenaline-fueled fun. You can watch the trailer as much as you want right here, but if you want to know what Gunn had to say about certain parts of the trailer, I've included some commentary that he made to accompany some images that Marvel released. 

INDIANA JONES INFLUENCE?

indiana-jones_156821-fli_1392743277-650-80.jpg

"There is probably no film that influenced me more as a child – no film that excited me more or that I loved more – than Raiders Of The Lost Ark. It not only influences how I see Guardians, it influences how I live my life." 

SILENT ROCKET

silent-rocket-156871-a-1392798692-650-80.jpg

"We've recorded most of Bradley’s dialogue already. I suppose you would expect me to tell you he’s fantastic and his characterization of Rocket will blow your mind – so don’t believe me and just wait to see (or hear) it for yourself. In all truth, we hired Bradley because he’s able to do both comedy and drama – it’s the thing I look for most in the actors on all my films – and to truly sell Rocket – for you to believe a Raccoon can talk (and blow up and shoot tons of stuff) we need a well-rounded actor." 

ADORABLE GROOT

dawww-groot-156869-a-1392798737-650-80.jpg

"I love Groot so much I get teary eyed when I think of him sometimes. Essentially, all the Guardians start out the movie as bastards - except Groot. He’s an innocent. He’s a hundred percent deadly and a hundred percent sweet. He’s caught up in Rocket’s life, really."

INTIMIDATING ZOE GAMORA

gamora-of-the-galaxy-156870-a-1392798778-650-80.jpg

"Zoe is about as un-intimidating as you can imagine! She gets in the zone the moment that cameras start filming – but before that she’s basically her loud, brash, completely lovable and goofball self. She got it easy with the makeup – it only took about four hours to put on, whereas it took Dave Bautista and Karen Gillan six hours or more. Zoe and Karen are the two most hardass characters in the movie – they’re our Clint Eastwoods. It should take more than a few people by surprise." 

EDGY HUMOR

edgy-humour_156873-fli_1392798261-650-80.jpg

"The movie has a lot of edgy humor, unusual for a comic book movie. But we were encouraged by Marvel to take risks, so we did. However, we never wanted the humor to get in the way of the fun or the emotional heart of the film – those things came first." 

'80S WALKMAN

star-lords-walkman_156874-fli_1392798381-650-80.jpg

"'Hooked On A Feeling' is used in the movie. That and a lot of other old songs are on Quill’s mixed tape in his Sony Walkman. It’s one of the few things he has from Earth. I don’t think of it as a joke, because it’s very dear to him. It’s the umbilical cord that connects him to earth and the home and family he lost." 

BEHIND THE BARS

behind-bars_156823-fli_1392745072-650-80.jpg

"The Guardians are criminals, essentially – a thief, two thugs, a murderer, and a maniac. They end up in prison together. When you have those personalities all in one place at one time, you can imagine a scrap or two starting pretty easily." 

STAR LORD THE PILOT

star-lords-spaceship-156818-a-1392798840-650-80.jpg

"At that point in the film, Star-Lord and the gang are facing off with a fleet of Ronan’s Necrocraft. Someone’s about to go down." 

NEBULA

nebulas-introduction-156819-a-1392798872-650-80.jpg

"I knew I wanted to add some shots of Nebula, as she’s super badass." 

THE COLLECTOR

the-collector-156872-a-1392798923-650-80.jpg

"It’s important to add that we left out some of our coolest characters – Lee Pace’s Ronan the Accuser, Michael Rooker’s Yondu, and Glenn Close’s Nova Prime – because we want to save them for the full trailer in a couple months". 

BEST FRIENDS: ROCKET & GROOT

rocket-groot-156820-a-1392798976-650-80.jpg

"There is no doubt that the cinematic pinnacle of my career is our cameras circling around a maniacal raccoon shooting a machine gun on the back of a living tree. And I say this with as much modesty as I can muster – because certainly it is not me, but the hand of God guiding us all as we make this film – but it just may be the pinnacle of cinema in general. When we shot it we were twirling around an empty space in a giant set. But I think all of us could see the raccoon and the tree in our minds. They were already starting to form. I can’t wait to share them with everyone in August."

New Character for STAR WARS REBELS - Feisty Weapons Expert Sabine

Star_Wars_Sabine_Excl_html.jpg

As fall of this year draws closer, Disney is going to be giving little insights into the world of their show Star Wars Rebels. THR released an exclusive image of one of the main characters of the show. Her name is Sabine. 

She will be voiced by Tiya Sircar (Walking with Dinosaurs, The Internship), and this is what the report had to say about the character:

She is a Mandalorian, and is described as "sassy," "spunky," "feisty" and has "a little bit of attitude." She has an expert's knowledge of weapons and arms, with an affinity for blowing things up. "She does it with flair," Sircar says of Sabine, who also moonlights as a graffiti artist.

For those of you who aren’t familiar, another famous Mandalorian was Boba Fett. Fortunately for the Rebellion, this Mando is an enemy of the Empire. Here is a synopsis of what you can expect:

Star Wars Rebels takes place between Star Wars: Episode III - Revenge of the Sith and Star Wars: Episode IV - A New Hope, which spans about two decades. The animated series is set "in a time where the Empire is securing its grip on the galaxy and hunting down the last of the Jedi Knights as a fledgling rebellion against the Empire is taking shape."

All in all, this looks like it will be a pretty cool animated series. This fall there will be an hour long movie on the Disney channel to kick things off, then the series will begin on Disney XD shortly after. 

Until Next Time…

Billy Out!
