I haven’t read the comic (it looks very… Mark Millar, though), but the trailer looks interesting:
Another trailer here, with too much in the way of rough language and ultraviolence to be really suitable for direct embedding on this refined, even prudish, site.

PS: Yeah, I’m probably going to go see it.
(Via Nodwick) On the one hand, the movies on this list that I’ve actually seen:
Pitch Black
Star Trek
Spider-Man 2
The Incredibles
28 Days Later
Iron Man
The Dark Knight
District 9
Serenity
…are all excellent (in particular, Pitch Black

…but, yeah, I’ve seen possibly far too many of them.

PS: What? Oh, probably Army of Darkness
If you’re like me, you have been waiting for this day – the day that Mega Shark vs. Giant Octopus
Why, you’ll go pick up some of the other works that the stars and director have done, of course. Continue reading For all your further ‘Mega Shark Vs. Giant Octupus’ star needs.
Well, this looks interesting. Via Rhetorician:

…no, probably not.
Anyway, Ace of Ace of Spades HQ has an interesting review up – OK, he has two interesting reviews up, but I’m working under the assumption that I’ll see Doubt

*I assume that what will happen is that it’ll be on or about to be on, somewhere, just as I’m wandering by; and then I’ll watch it. And then I’ll agree that it was a good film, and that I enjoyed it.
You’d watch this.
Admit it.
Personally, I think that Allahpundit’s being too disapproving of this sort of thing. Hollywood makes movies like what this one is satirizing because people want to see them. A lot. And while they may pay for movies that Hollywood wants to make and nobody wants to watch, they also pay for movies that not enough people want to watch. I mean, I liked Bottle Shock
Just saying.
I mean, how are they going to explain the differences between this and the previous X-Men
Oh, well, I’m sure that I’ll find out when I see it.

Guess it’s settled whether there’s money in that franchise, huh?
According to the Associated Press, a lawsuit was filed yesterday in a Manhattan federal court on behalf of four shareholders of Stan Lee Media, Inc. against Stan Lee, his partner Arthur Lieberman, his wife Joan Clayton, Marvel Entertainment, Inc. and producer Avi Arad. The four unnamed shareholders are seeking more then $750 million in profits from films based on Marvel characters, including “Spider-Man,” “X-Men” and “Iron Man.”
While details are still trickling in regarding specifics to the case, the AP reports that the lawsuit claims profits from Lee’s comic creations belong to the company after emerging from bankruptcy in 2006. The suit claims Lee and the others named in the proceedings ignored the company and shareholder’s interests.
I came across this while looking up Watchmen info – see Moe succumb to the Fanboy side of the Force! Succumb, Moe, succumb! – and while I figure that this will probably get settled it’s still a little interesting. I mean, sure, between the Spiderman

PS: Watchmen comes out in March; Star Trek’s still up for May. And I don’t know what’s going to be the big summer must-see movies, yet.
