DC Nation Teaser Trailer

DC Nation is a new block of DC programming coming to the Cartoon Network in 2012.  We now have our first look at it with this teaser trailer!

Toy Story: Small Fry Clip

Toy Story: Small Fry is the new short that will air in theaters in front of The Muppets.  It is the second of three planned Toy Story shorts, the first being "Hawaiian Vacation" which aired with Cars 2.  Here is a clip from the new Toy Story: Small Fry short.

Snow White & The Huntsman Trailer

This is the first I have talked about this film here.  It hits theaters in the Spring and stars Kristen Stewart and Chris Hemsworth.  The official synopsis is as follows: In the epic action-adventure Snow White and the Huntsman, Kristen Stewart (Twilight) plays the only person in the land fairer than the evil queen (Oscar(r) winner Charlize Theron) out to destroy her. But what the wicked ruler never imagined is that the young woman threatening her reign has been training in the art of war with a huntsman (Chris Hemsworth, Thor) dispatched to kill her. Sam Claflin (Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides) joins the cast as the prince long enchanted by Snow White's beauty and power. The breathtaking new vision of the legendary tale is from Joe Roth, the producer of Alice in Wonderland, producer Sam Mercer (The Sixth Sense) and acclaimed commercial director and state-of-the-art visualist Rupert Sanders. 

The Hunger Games Trailer

The Hunger Games is based on a series of popular books that I haven't read. The movie version hits in 2012 and looks pretty cool.  Here is the theatrical trailer for the film!

What Would Bradley Cooper Looked Like As The Crow?

The Crow reboot has been in development for the last couple of years.  Early this year it almost got off the ground with Juan Carlos Fresnadillo of 28 Days Later fame directing the film.  Bradley Cooper was to be the star.  They have both since left the project and the film now has no star or director and lies in development hell.  I've been pretty vocal on hoping this movie never exists, and as time goes it's looking more likely.  None the less, it's still neat to see what may have been.  Shock Till You Drop has gotten their hands on some concept art done by artist Diego Latorre of what Cooper may have looked like if the film had gotten made.  Check them out below!

First Look At Toy Story: Small Fry

Toy Story: Small Fry is a new animated short airing in front of The Muppets. USA Today has a few choice quotes from writer-director Angus MacLane, the man who previously created Pixar’s magical short, Presto, and the Wall-E spin-off, Burn-E. Here’s some of what he said: "It’s like the Prince and the Pauper tale for toys. Except one of them happens to be three inches tall. [Happy Meal] toys’ existence is about being really popular before the meal and then being totally forgotten about, and sometimes they don’t even get played with. There’s something funny about having the action hero have to deal with something very mundane like escaping from an awkward social situation."
     The seven minute toon features a host of regular voices, plus semi-legendary animation story guy, animator and director Teddy Newton as the mini-Buzz and Jane Lynch has a role too, though I think it be more fun to not tell you what it is.
     Small Fry is the second of three Toy Story Shorts in the first planned wave. The first of course aired in front of Cars 2, and no word yet on when the third one will appear.

Green Lantern The Animated Series Press Release & Stills

Cartoon Network has issued a press release for the premier this Friday of Green Lantern The Animated Series, as well as a synopsis for the first two episodes airing during the one hour event!

Beware My Power…Green Lantern’s Light"

Airs Friday, November 11 7/6c on Cartoon Network

Based upon the DC Comics super hero, GREEN LANTERN THE ANIMATED SERIES follows Earth's Green Lantern, Hal Jordan, who is used to being in dangerous situations — but never anything like this! In the farthest reaches of deep space, Hal patrols the Guardian Frontier, where he must face down invasions from the evil Red Lantern Corps., who have sworn to destroy the Green Lanterns and everything they stand for. With ever-emerging galactic threats, Hal is soon joined by an all-new group of heroes on a mission to protect Guardian Space — and the Green Lantern Corps itself! 

     In the first part of the two-part series premiere episode, ace test pilot Hal Jordan (voiced by JOSH KEATON), who leads a secret life as Earth's guardian Green Lantern, is called back to Oa. Searching for the culprits behind a series of Green Lantern deaths in "Frontier Space", Hal and his gruff fellow Green Lantern Kilowog (voiced by KEVIN MICHAEL RICHARDSON) "commandeer" The Interceptor, a prototype spaceship powered by pure Green Lantern energy and an advanced artificial intelligence system that Hal names Aya (voiced by GREY DeLISLE). 

     In the second half of the two-part series premiere episode, Hal and Kilowog discover that a group of Red Lanterns, including the conflicted Razer (voiced by JASON SPISAK) and the vile Zilius Zox (voiced by TOM KENNY) have been targeting and eliminating Green Lanterns in Frontier Space. Along with the help from a surviving Frontier Space Green Lantern Shyir Rev (voiced by KURTWOOD SMITH), Hal and Kilowog must stop the Red Lantern leader Atrocitus (voiced by JONATHAN ADAMS) from destroying Shyir's home planet of Colony 12.

The SKYisFALLing - James Bond Returns

MGM and EON Productions held the "Bond 23" Press Conference today in London, to officially announce that production begins next week, and the title of the film is Skyfall.  Daniel Craig returns as Bond and the film is being directed by Sam Mendes.  The official synopsis for the film is as follows: In SKYFALL, Bond's loyalty to M is tested as her past comes back to haunt her. As MI6 comes under attack, 007 must track down and destroy the threat, no matter how personal the cost.

One interesting thing to note is that this film will be a separate story so the Quantum organization has seemingly been put on hold or is "in hiding" for now.  If you remember Casino Royale and Quantum Of Solace were parts of a planned trilogy.  So we will see where this new Bond adventure takes us.  Check out the official logo and video from the conference below.  The film hits theaters November 9, 2012.

 

Andy Serkis Returns To The Planet Of The Apes

Rise Of The Planet Of The Apes was one of the years biggest and best surprises.  The film was very well received by critics and audiences, and overall just one of the better films this year.  The sequel is finally beginning to be set in motion with director Rupert Wyatt will return and the studio has just inked a deal to bring back actor Andy Serkis to reprise his role as Cesar.  No word on a title or release date for the film, but most likely 2013 at the earliest.
