While I suspect that the primary reason this was released today was because so many people had crappy pirated versions, I have to admit that they’re doing the right thing, which is feeding the almost rabid interest this movie seems to be developing. I also noticed that, while Bane doesn’t talk much, when he does […]
I found this makeup test for The Green Goblin, from Sam Raimi’s Spider-Man from 2002. It’s visually closer in appearance to the character from the Marvel comics, and certainly will not bring any comparisons to the Power Rangers, as the version that Raimi finally used, did. via SuperHeroHype
Here’s a link to “The Dark Knight Rises” prologue (below the “Community” pic), which I have to honestly say that I stumbled upon. It looks really cool (and not only because I was an extra during the New York filming), though you can barely understand anything that Bane is saying, which is a bit odd. […]
According to Deadline, Patty Jenkins has left as director of the sequel to 2011’s “Thor.” This is remarkable because she just got the assignment a month or two ago. Marvel Studios can be notoriously difficult to work with, and more than a little bit tight with the purse strings, though I don’t want to assume […]
According to the folks and Spiderman.ru and Collider.com, the image to your left is The Lizard, from the upcoming “The Amazing Spider-Man.” I tend to believe that it’s accurate because of this. I am not too sure how I feel about it, mainly because he looks too ‘human,’ though it’s hard to tell his size […]
Christopher Nolan, director of the upcoming “The Dark Knight Rises” and Tom Hardy, who plays Bane, discuss the character, his fighting style, and motivations. Thanks to Deadline for the head’s up!
In the name of full disclosure, I am not a huge fan of DC Comics, and am irritated that one of their characters that I do happen to like, Green Lantern, was in such a mediocre movie. Booster Gold, according to the Hollywood Reporter by way of Comic Book Resources, is coming to SyFy. Why […]
Last Saturday I was part of the filming of “The Dark Knight Rises,” code named “Magnus Rex,” in New York. I played one of 600 Gotham City policemen who had just escaped from being trapped in Gotham’s subway system by Bane. No pictures were allowed, though I recall enough of the 13 hours I worked […]
Edited 10/29/11 While it’s great to see George R.R. Martin, and his superlative writing, finally getting some attention with HBO’s “Game of Thrones,” though when I thought about which of his books that I would like to see as a movie, that particular series wasn’t my first choice. That would have been “Wild Cards” (and […]
According to Collider, some say that Simon Baker, of “The Mentalist” would make a good Doctor Strange. While I am sure that he could handle the role–after all, he’s a decent actor–there’s no way that he is a good fit for the character. Mainly because he looks nothing like him. In the past, I have […]
