Marv & Gail: Sin CIty 2gether Again
According to this report at Spinoff Online, both Mickey Rourke and Rosario Dawson are set to return to Sin Ciity, when the sequel begins filming this summer. This is the best news I’ve heard all week.
Negative Girl Turns Positive
1. Stare at the red dot on the girls nose for 30 seconds.
2. Turn your eyes to a plain surface (a sheet of white paper works great).
3. Blink repeatedly and quickly.
4. What do you see?
A big positive thank you for the negative illusion to Bits and Pieces.
Rooftop Tower Climb
I’ll admit that my palms got moist watching this video of a Russian who got on a sky-scrapper’s roof and decided to climb the snow-covered steps to a tower… and then up the tower.
Watch it on full screen and feel your stomach tighten and your body shift to find balance.
Lance Sawyer Goes to Cop Land
Lance Sawyer is back, this time with his take on Sly as Freddy from Cop Land. I saw Lance was taking on some sketch and sketch card commissions, so I jumped on board.
If you’d like your own commission or to see more of Lance’s art, you can right here.
Walking Dead 100: Roll Call of the Dead
That’s just half of the wrap-around cover by Charlie Adlard for the 100th issue of The Walking Dead. You can see a 100th-issue-worthy-sized poster of the cover here thanks to CBR.com.
It’s hard to believe that The Walking Dead is almost to the 100th issue. I can remember my excitement after reading the first issue and making this post recommending it way back in November of 2004. The Walking Dead quickly became my favorite regularly published comic and I posted about it a lot over the years.
Now with the ever-increasing popularity of the tv series and the publicity from the 100th issue milestone, it looks like we’re in for several more years of Walking Dead greatness. My only fear is that there won’t be enough room on the cover of issue 200 for a roll call of the dead.
Rowan Stock Moore’s Snow White
I am really impressed with Rowan Stocks Moore’s minimalist movie poster for Disney’s Snow White.
New Total Recall Photo
I sure hope that the Total Recall update has plenty of action.
Lockout: The First Five
Want to see the first five minutes of Lockout? You can, but first be advised that Lockout is rated PG13 for intense sequences of violence and action, and language including some sexual references. With that said, here’s the first five minutes of Lockout.
Eric Merced and Jack Carter
Here’s a sketch card of Sly as Jack Carter that Eric Merced did when I bought his sketchbook back in 2010. I’m pretty sure this was the first sketchcard that I ever got and it somehow eluded being posted until today. You can see more of Eric’s art at his site and his DA home.
Don Winslow’s Savages
I really enjoyed Savages by Don Winslow. Of course what crime fiction loving fan didn’t?
Naturally, I’m looking forward to the movie adaptation starring Aaron Johnson, Taylor Kitsch, Blake Lively, John Travolta, Uma Thurman, Salma Hyeck, and Benicio Del Toro. Savages opens July 6th and although the full length trailer doesn’t break until tomorrow, MTV has the teaser for the trailer here.
If you’re already on board or think Savages is something you’d really dig, then you’ll probably be interested in Don Winslow’s prequel called The Kings of Cool. It hits the streets on June 19th.
What Jimmy Stewart Really Saw in “Rear Window”
This is so cool. Jeff Desom edited footage from Alfred Hitchcock’s classic, Rear Window, so we have a time-lapse video of Jimmy Stewart’s view of the courtyard to show us exactly what was going on in that building across the way.
Thanks and a wave of a broken leg to MetaFilter for the link.
Full-Length “Total Recall” Trailer Up
The full-length trailer to Total Recall is up and looks awesome. If the movie lives up to the trailer, we’re in for an amazing ride.
Samuel L. Jackson is The Samaritan
As cool as the retro-looking poster for The Samaritan is, I like the trailer even better. Samuel L. Jackson as a newly released ex-con under pressure from his parole officer to “not even jaywalk” and his ex-partner’s [who Jackson killed} son’s gang forcing him back into the life… yeah, I’m in.
Shawn Surface Brings The Law
Today we have Sly as Judge Dredd by Shawn Surface. Shawn is an all-around nice guy and his art should be getting more attention. This is the first of three pieces that I recently picked up from Shawn. The other two will be posted in the coming weeks. Until then, why not check out his site and give him some love?
