Warrior
If you’re a MMA fan, then you might want to check out this trailer for the movie “Warrior.” It looks like it’ll be a fun couple of hours.

Stuntman Mike is at the Show
Most of you probably recognize Kurt Russell as Stuntman Mike from Quentin Tarantino’s Death Proof. The artwork is part of Spoke Art‘s Quentin vs. Coens art show which will run from April 7th through April 9th at the Bold Hype Gallery, 547 W 27th St, 5th floor, NY, NY. You can read more about the show and see more art over at /Film.
Tim Sale, Rocky and a Couple of Turtles
Tim Sale did this wonderful wash piece for me at MegaCon last weekend. Tim said that he wanted to do Rocky from the first movie with his turtles Cuff and Link. Excellent choice and a very, very cool piece. Thanks to Tim and John Higashi for making it happen. – Craig
Tim Doyle: Reservoir Dogs
I really like this Reservoir Dogs piece by Tim Doyle. It is just one of seven images that Doyle created for Spoke Art‘s Quentin vs. Coens art show which will run from April 7th through April 9th at the Bold Hype Gallery, 547 W 27th St, 5th floor, NY, NY. You can see more of Doyle’s images and learn more about the art show by clicking over to SlashFilm.
More Love for The Big Bang
The other day when I said I loved everything about the poster for The Big-Bang. Today I’m saying that I love everything about the trailer for “The Big Bang” which is brought to us from the fine folks at SlashFilm.com. I’m hoping the day will come when I can say that I love everything about “The Big Bang” movie.
MegaCon Bound
This Friday, Saturday and Sunday, my buddy, John Beatty and I are going to be in Orlando hanging out with several thousand other like-minded folks. Yep, it’s time for MegaCon. John is going as a guest of the show and I’m going as his guest. That means while John is sketching for fans, I’ll either be hanging at his table keeping the fun at it’s maximum level or I’ll be visiting with other artists/friends looking to get a sketch or two for my Stallone Sketch theme collection.
If you’ve never been to MegaCon, you’re missing out. There’s something for everyone. There are celebrity guests, comic book creators, dozens of artists sketching for fans, panels, gaming, and more. If you’re in driving distance of the show, come on down. If not, there’s always next year. Hope to see you there!
Who Doesn’t Love The Big Bang?
Now THIS is a movie poster. I love everything about it: the old-time look [dig those creases], the design, the colors, the typeface. Then you’ve got Antonio Banderas playing some hard case firing off his 45. And let’s not forget that Delroy Lindo and Sam Elliott [love his look in that small photo] make every movie a little better.
Yeah, this poster rocks.

Craig Rousseau & Demolition Man
I had the good fortune to get this cool sketch from Craig Rousseau back in 2009 when I purchased one of his sketchbooks. It was a great deal, because with each sketchbook, Craig included a free headsketch.
Undead Clients & a Zombie Partner? What Up, Dog?
Dylan Dog looks like it might make for a fun evening. Dylan Dog first appeared as an Italian comic book series. Dark Horse Comics publishes it in the US. Oh, and if you’d like to see a monster-sized version of the poster, you can thanks to the good folks at IMPAwards.
Dave Wachter Goes to Copland
Dave Wachter joins us this week with his take on Sly from Copland. I’m a huge fan of Dave’s art and own several pieces [and hope to get more in the future]. He’s a tremendous artist, but more importantly an all-around decent guy. You can see more of Dave’s art at his site. – Craig
The Rock Makes an Appearance
The other day I ran the latest poster for Fast & Furious 5 and admitted I was a bit surprised that they didn’t find a way to work in Dwayne Johnson. Looks like I spoke too soon as you can see from this giinourmous poster at IMPAwards.
Diesel & Walker, Hold The Rock
I like this poster for Fast & Furious 5 and am a bit surprised that they didn’t find a way to work in Dwayne Johnson. It makes me think that maybe the folks behind the movie know that The Rock is an added bonus and the focus is still on Vin Diesel and Paul Walker. Then again, maybe they’re planning to do a cool Dwayne Johnson character poster later.
If you’d like to see a huge version of this poster you can right here at IMPAwards. Oh, and if you’d like you can see the new Fast 5 trailer right here.
Conan: Looking Like a Barbarian
Conan: The Movie Blog recently posted some previously unseen shots from the new Conan film. Like a lot of folks, I’ve been watching the filming reports wondering how the new Conan will compare to the classic Arnold Schwarzenegger/John Mlius “Conan: The Barbarian.” My guess was it wouldn’t be as good as the original, but probably better than Schwarzenegger’s second outing as “Conan: The Destroyer.” The new photos raise my expectations a bit…
Riddick’s Return: Lean & Mean
Vin Diesel has posted a short video on his Facebook page where he and writer/director David Twohy discuss the direction they’re taking with the new Riddick movie. The great news is that the new film will be closer in tone and attitude to “Pitch Black” than “The Chronicles of Riddick” and it’s on the fast track to getting made. [Via AICN]
Sean Gordon Murphy Takes on Rocky (& Butkus)
Sean Gordon Murphy is one of those artists who just seems to come out of nowhere with his own distinctive style that you can’t help but love. I met Sean at last year’s Heroes Con. His sketch list was full, but he said he started a new list each day and I should check back the next day. I made sure I was first in line and ended up with this classic piece of Rocky and Butkus.
You can see more of Sean’s art at his site. Sean is going to be at Heroes again this year and I’m hoping that lighting strikes twice.
