Breaking Bad: “We’re Done, When I Say We’re Done”
Breaking Bad is one of the best shows on television. This 15 second teaser sure hints at the tone of the new season. July 15th can’t get here fast enough.
Resident Evil: Retribution
If my life depended upon the right answer, I might be able to guess how many Resident Evil movies have been made. Of course it would be a guess. And I’d only do it to save my life.
The Resident Evil movies (however many there may be) are not great films by any stretch of the imagination. I will confess, however, that I think I’ve seen them all. At least the ones that have made their way to the SYFY channel.
I watch them, enjoy them at the time of viewing and then pretty much forget the details. That’s because, at least as best as I can remember, they’re all pretty much about Milla Jovovich fighting zombies and other creatures created by the evil Umbrella Corporation. Which is a fun way to spend a late night on the weekend when there’s nothing else on.
Guess what? There’s a new Resident Evil movie coming out. It’s called Resident Evil: Retribution and here’s the trailer. I wish I could tell you where this new movie fits in to the Resident Evil timeline, but it’d only be a guess.
Jesse Munoz Gets Carter
Jesse Munoz makes his first appearance in my Stallone Theme Sketch Collection. Big thanks to Jesse for his excellent take on Sly as Jack Carter and for the quick response time. You can see more of Jesse’s art.
Sinister: Have You Seen Him?
The new trailer for Sinister has a couple of creepy moments, the best being at the at the 1:33 mark.
Final “Expendables 2” Poster
Here is the final Expendables 2 poster in all it’s glory.
Mike Zeck @ Heroes Con!
My buddy, Mike Zeck stopped going to comic conventions years ago. So it was a huge surprise when Mike announced that he will be at Heroes Con next weekend as part of their 30th anniversary celebration.
Mike will join a panel featuring the guests of the first Heroes Con, and he’ll also be set up signing autographs, selling his sketchbook as well as the crime graphic novel, Damned, that he did with Steven Grant [writer], Denis Rodier [inker] and Kurt Goldzung [colorist]. If you enjoy crime comics, I highly recommend you give Damned a look. Mike’s sketchbook is also well worth the price of admission.
If you’ve never met Mike Zeck and want to, plan to swing by and see him at Heroes next weekend. Odds are if you miss him, your next shot will be at Heroes’ 50th anniversary celebration.
10 Bests You Will Always Win
Here’s a fun video featuring 10 Bests You Will Always Win… unless, of course, you’re betting against someone who reads my blog or Neatorama.com.
Car of Choice for the Zombie Apocalypse
I’ve been a Hyundai fan for over twenty years. I currently drive a XG350, which is affectionately called the Jack Carter mobile by some of my friends. Both of my sons drive Hyundais which have been passed down to them.
Hyundais are great cars which get wonderful gas mileage and seldom need repairs. Little did I know that Hyundai would be the car company of choice should there be a zombie apocalypse!
Sean Gordon Murphy’s Punk Rock Jesus
Even though I’m a big fan of Sean Gordon Murphy, I was a bit put off by the title of his up-coming five issue mini series, Punk Rock Jesus. However, the more I read about Punk Rock Jesus, the more I thought I’d like it. Now, I’m fully on board.
CBR.com has an interview with Sean where he talks about Punk Rock Jesus and a whole lot more. Perhaps, if you aren’t already, after reading the interview, you’ll be booking passage as well.
The Truth About Gunfights in the Old West.
Recently Neatorama posted The Truth About Gunfights in the Old West. While we probably knew most of the liberties taken in Hollywood gunfights, the piece is still a fun and interesting read.
Total Recall: Making Your Fantasy Come True
Here are the viral posters that are starting to make the rounds to promote the Total Recall remake. I’m looking forward to the movie. I also wonder how long it will be before a company decides to make it their business to make fantasies come true.
Thank to ComingSoon for covering the movies that make our fantasies come true… at least for a couple of hours at a time.
Moreno’s “Rambo: Last Stand”
Gerardo Moreno is back with his version of how a new Rambo movie poster could look. I’ve always enjoyed Gerardo’s Stallone art, but this may be his best piece ever. To see more of his art, click here.
Walt Simonson Goes Solo in The Judas Coin
Walt Simonson is a comic book all-star. Simonson is best known for his work on Marvel’s Thor and DC’s Manhunter, [although his teaming with Archie Goodwin for a graphic novel adaptation of Alien is my personal favorite].
Walt Simonson is back with a graphic novel called The Judas Coin which spans 1600 years in the DC universe and features a variety of characters including Batman, Two Face, Bat Lash and others. You can learn more about it here, but the fact that Walt Simonson drew it, is probably all most folks need to know to add it to their pull list.
Thanks and a big “heads you win” to CBR.com.
An Extended Look at Arrow
I’ve never watched a show on the CW. This extended preview for Arrow makes me think that is about to change.
Django is Off the Chain!
There was a period of time when Quentin Tarantino could do no wrong. This trailer for his next film, Django, looks like Tarantino is once again hitting on all cylinders.
