Collection of New Dark Knight Posters

A huge collection of new Dark Knight posters have made their way online. While I am not sure these are all official posters, they are pretty badass looking. The only one I am skeptical about is the one with the Joker standing in front of the burning building. We just saw this poster released the other day that had Batman standing in front of the building instead.

Mike Judge To Extract Jason Bateman

Office Space and Idiocracy writer/director Mike Judge is bringing us a new comedy staring Jason Bateman titled Extract. The film will be produced under Judge’s new company, Ternion Productions.

Extract was written by Judge and will explore what it’s like to be the boss when everything seems to be shifting around you.

Judge is currently working on The Good Family, a television series which is being produced under Ternion Prod. Filming of the first 13 episodes is still underway, and the series should debut in the first quarter of 2009.

As I mentioned earlier, Judge is the creator of Office Space and Idiocracy. To me, Office Space is pure gold. I love that movie to death. Then there’s Idiocracy, which I didn’t think held up to Judge’s previous works. Sure, the premise was great but I don’t think it was executed as well as it could have been. That film didn’t receive much recognition until after it was released on DVD and people realized who Judge was.

My guess is Extract will be along the lines of Office Space. I think a film that focused on Bill Lumbergh’s (the boss from Office Space) point of view as the boss of Initech would be amazing. Hopefully Judge had something like this in mind when he wrote Extract

Do you think Extract will be as good as Mike Judge’s previous works? Is it going to take the same path as Office Space? Discuss below!

First Dragonball Teaser Poster Now Online

A photo has been circulating the internet on message boards which has claimed to be the Japanese poster for Dragonball. SlashFilm was sent a picture from a reader that showed the same poster, but with English instead of Japanese. So it seems as though this is the real deal. Check out the two posters below.



Amazing New Dark Knight Poster

It’s Official… Guillermo Del Toro to Direct The Hobbit

We have had multiple rumors going on that Guillermo Del Toro is going to direct The Hobbit as well as its sequel, but we had never heard anything official until now.

Executive producers Peter Jackson and Fran Walsh have announced that Del Toro has signed on to direct The Hobbit. Del Toro will move to New Zealand for four years to work alongside Jackson and WETA. He will direct the two films back-to-back, with the sequel focusing on what happens between The Hobbit and The Fellowship of the Ring.

We do not have word on who is going to star in these two films, but Sir Ian McKellen has announced his interest in reprising his role as Gandalf.

We will keep you informed on the latest information regarding The Hobbit and its sequel as it becomes available to us.

Video: WALL-E Meets a Magnet

Dinsey has released a short video featuring WALL-E and a magnet. It’s cute, but nothing major. Give it a look and let us know how you feel about WALL-E in general. Do you think this will be another major hit from Disney/Pixar?


WALL-E hits theaters on June 27th.

Hellboy III is it for Guillermo Del Toro

Hellboy has been one of my favorite comic book movies after my brother introduced me to the film a few years ago. I love the characters themselves, but I also love the actors who play the characters. I am highly anticipating the sequel to hit theaters this summer because I am ready to see Ron Pearl as the red superhero.

Writer and director Guillermo Del Toro told SCI FI Wire that he would love to do a third film as long as the sequel does well. But he said he would stop making Hellboy films after the third.

“If there was ever a third one, I would really make sure that we at least sign a contract that there is no more,” del Toro said in an interview at New York Comic Con last week. “No prequels and no sequels: nothing. If that happens, then there is a third one we have planned, and the seeds are planted in this film.”

Del Toro has some interesting ideas for the third film that would try to mimic the mythology of the comic-book series. He wants to bring back the Nazis as the bad guys, but he wants to see them operating now. In the 2000s.

“…what public face would the Nazis have in 2009/2010? How rich would they be? How in charge could they be? It’s not this group of freakies that hide in the sewers, but people that are incredibly rich.”

The sequel, Hellboy II: The Golden Army, strays from the comic-book as it is an original story created by Mike Mignola and Del Toro. The sequel hits theaters July 11th.

Rumor Busted: No Austin Powers 4 on the Way

There were some reports floating around earlier this month that a script was written and that supermodel Gisele Bundchen was in talks to star in Austin Powers 4. Well, according to Seth Green, that is completely untrue.

Green has appeared in all three films as Dr. Evil’s son and said he has heard nothing about this supposed script.

“I’ll tell you what,” he declared. “If a script for ‘Austin Powers 4’ gets written and then it gets greenlit by whatever version of New Line is still making movies, and everybody agrees to do it, then we’ll have something to talk about. But at this point, ‘Austin Powers 4’ is nothing more than something Mike Myers talked about off-handedly during the ‘Shrek’ press.”

Personally, I hated the third Austin Powers film and was not amused at all. I’d be happy if a fourth film never saw the light of day, but I know a few people who would disagree with me. To each his own.

Uma Thurman Confirms More Kill Bill

A few years ago, Quentin Tarantino promised fans that we would soon see more from the characters of Kill Bill in animated films. One was to be about the origin of Uma Thurman’s character, The Bride, and the other would be about Bill.

Thurman recently revealed to MTV that one of these films was happening, but that she had no part in it. Apparently Tarantino is working on an extended version of the film to be released on DVD.

“Right now he’s putting the two films together with an intermission with an added anime sequence he had already written,” she said of the ongoing saga of Beatrix Kiddo. “So additional stories are in there, in animation.”

That sounds pretty sweet to me. I loved Volume 1, and didn’t care to much for the second, but it had its moments. I would like to see them together in one big film as they were meant to be seen. Hopefully we will get to hear some news from Tarantino himself regarding this long sought-after DVD release.

Extended Hancock Trailer Hits the Net

We haven’t seem to much from Will Smith’s upcoming superhero comedy aside from a few images and one trailer. Now we can take a look at the extended trailer for Hancock which hits theaters later this summer.


I’m not sure what to think about this movie, I don’t think it looks bad but I don’t think it looks incredible either. Smith usually does do fairly decent films which always do well at the box office. I guess we will just have to wait and see.
