Wolverine or 2 Bat Men
I saw Wolverine first and then the 2 Bat Men. Pretty clever drawing, eh?
And a tip o’ the cowl to Geek World Order.
Teaser for Total Recall Trailer
Here’s the teaser for the trailer of the Colin Farrell remake of Total Recall?
The Iceman: Scarier Than Fiction
If the movie The Iceman is half as riveting as listening to the real Iceman, Richard Kuklinski, then we’re in for a very scary movie.
Kuklinski was the 6 foot 5 inch, three hundred pound hitman, who claimed to have killed over 100 men between 1948 and 1986. Kuklinski was finally convicted of five murders in 1988 and sentenced to consecutive life sentences. In 2003, Kuklinski pled guilty of the murder of NYPD detective Peter Calabro.
Kuklinski, once incarcerated was never one to shy away from talking about his killings. His matter of fact discussions of brutal and sadistic killings was chilling and without remorse. Kuklinski died in prison on March 5, 2006. He had been scheduled to testify that Sammy Gravano had ordered the hit on Detective Calabro. After Kuklinski died, the case against Sammy Gravano was dropped.
If you’d like to see an iceberg-sized version of The Iceman poster, you can, thanks to IMPAwards.
Mike Torrance Scores a Victory
Mike Torrance aka The Krayola Kidd scores a “Victory” with his take on Sly as Captain Richard Hatch from one of Sly’s most under-rated movies.
You can see more of Mike’s art at The Daily Sketch with The Krayola Kidd and his Deviant Art site. Mike is available for commissions and his prices are very reasonable.
Edmondson & Klein: Dancer
That’s a very clever image [cover?] to promote Nathon Edmondson and Nic Klein’s new series Dancer.
Vanity Fair has a Sit-Down with The Sopranos
If you were a fan of The Sopranos, and who wasn’t – fans and critics alike loved the show – (112 Emmy nominations and 21 wins in its 6 season run), then you’ll probably enjoy the excellent April 2012 Vanity Fair interview with all of the shows major players.
Walking Dead, Season 2, Greatest Moments – SPOILERS!
Newsarama recently listed their choices for the 10 Best The Walking Dead Moments of Season 2. While I agree with all of their choices, my order would have been…
10. Glenn Meets Maggie
09. Andrea’s Dead-Eye Shot
08. Hershel and the Farm
07. The Prison
06. Ding! Dong! Who’s in the Well?
05. Carl Gets a Bullet and a Hat
04. Zombie Sophia
03. Dale’s Death
02. Rick Kills Shane, Who Turns
01. Michonne
I also would have added two additional moments:
- Rick Kills Two Humans in the Bar
- Shane Sacrifices Otis to the Zombies
Ruin
Wow!
Have you seen Ruin by Wes Ball? Amazing, huh?
Ruin is better than a lot of stuff that makes it to the big screen. Wes Ball is a name to watch. While we’re keeping an eye out for names, let’s add Kevin Riepl to the list for his excellent score.
New 3 Stooges Trailer, uh, Hits
The new trailer for The Three Stooges has, uh, hit.
It’s no secret that I’m a Stooges fan, heck, aren’t all guys? Before you click on the link below, let me warn you: There’s one mild profanity and it’s followed by a lot of slaps, punches, eye-pokes, and falls that aren’t that funny. I did smile though when I saw the look on Curley’s face at Larry’s prolonged yell when the lobster got a hold him.
Now that you’ve been warned, click away, if you’d like to see the new Three Stooges trailer.
Empire Breaks Down the Prometheus Trailer
So we’ve watched the Prometheus trailer forty-seven times and you’re still trying to sort it out. Seems to me we have two options:
1] Keep watching the trailer.
2] Wait for the movie.
Jedi Safety Training Video
Even if you’re not a Star Wars fan [and maybe especially if you’re not], you’ll probably get a kick out of this Jedi safety training video.
Iron Sky Preview
Way back in 2007, we first learned about a project called Iron Sky. The idea was that right before the end of World War II, Nazis secretly escaped to the dark side of the moon where they started a new society. The tale set in 2018 told the story of their return to conquer the Earth.
Now that Iron Sky has been completed, the first four minutes are available for viewing.
Tom Hodges, Sly & Expendables, Too
This week we have Sly from Expendables 2 by Tom Hodges. I discovered Tom’s art through his DA site. I saw that Tom was going to be drawing live on UStream so I commissioned several sketches. Tom still draws regularly on UStream and it’s always a blast watching him sketch and interacting with the crowd.
Rare Photos of Marilyn Monroe
The photo above is just one of 25 rarely seen photos of Marilyn Monroe that Julien’s Auction House is selling. The photos come from the private collection of Ms. Monroe’s long time makeup artist and personal confidant, Allan “Whitey” Snyder.
It’s hard to believe if Marilyn Monroe was still alive she’d be almost 86 years old. Instead of growing old, Marilyn Monroe will remain an ageless icon. Whitey Snyder captured that beauty in those rare pictures [a couple of which were taken on location when Ms. Monroe was filming River of No Return with Robert Mitchum].
