Rumor: New Batman is totally appearing in ‘JUSTICE LEAGUE’ movie before own film. Oh boy.
Woe be to the guy or gal who has to reboot Batman after Christ Nolan just rocked it out of the park for the past seven years. The latest rumor is that the rebooted Batman won’t make an appearance in his own flick until after the Justice League movie.
Video: ‘THE AVENGERS’ alternate opening. I’m glad they didn’t use it.
In an effort to promote The Avengers Blu-Ray release by giving away for free everything that would make us want it, Marvel has dropped a alternate opening to the flick. Regardless of whether or not it is well done, it certainly butts heads with the tone of the rest of the flick.
‘CHINESE ZODIAC’ TEASER TRAILER: Jackie Chan in a rollerblading suit. What the f**k, yes.
I hadn’t even heard of this shit until today, and now my mind is blown. Jackie Chan is all done up in a fucking rollerblading suit in the trailer for Chinese Zodiac. A film, which if it is anything like its teaser trailer, will be of the utmost amazing ridiculousness.
Affleck ain’t directing ‘JUSTICE LEAGUE’, but WACHOWSKIS are now rumored.
Ben Affleck isn’t doing the Justice League movie. He shot down those rumors, informing everyone that it was “way too hahd” before putting on his Red Sox hat and driving to Fenway Pahk. (I can make these jokes, I’m a Bostonian. No, I don’t care that they’re not funny.) Now Warner Bros. is casting their eyes at the Wachowskis and batting them innocently.
Michael Bay’s ‘NINJA TURTLES’ script leaks. It is the diarrhea soup we expected.
Oh huzzah! We can all relax now in our correctness. Us smug internet folk, who quietly knew that if Michael Bay were churning out a Ninja Turtles movie, it would be a unparalleled pile of shit.
Video: Rian Johnson’s ‘LOOPER’ redone as 8 Bit video game. Time travel, amirite.
Looper hasn’t even come out yet (unfortunately), and it has already received a retrofitting. Ain’t nothing that says love from the geek community like taking an appreciated commodity and dipping it into an 8 bit well.
‘THE MASTER’ FINAL TRAILER: Chock full of theta tension.
Behold! The final trailer for The Master. Hard to believe this movie is nearly at our our goddamn doorsteps.
OL STORE: Raph Says, “Daaammmn!”
Yo, ninja-heads! Why don’t you grab a slice of pizza and head over to the OL STORE? Don’t walk around flaunting your half-shells, cover up with one of our new t-shirts!
WEEKEND OPEN BAR: knock it off!
[WEEKEND OPEN BAR: The one-stop ramble-about-anything weekend post at OL. Comment on the topic at hand. Tell us how drunk you are. Describe a comic you bought. This is your chance to bring the party.]
Mom and Dad are gone. It’s just us. Alone. In the dark. This can only mean one thing. We have to throw a rager. Grab the kegs and hide your sisters, it’s time to burn this mother down!
While Rendar and Caff are off to the frozen tundra of Narina or Canada, or where ever the hell they’ve gone, they’ve decided to leave their baby, OL, to us, the B-Squad. God help us all. It’s not all bad. If things suck, they can scapegoat us, fire us, and have us killed for disobedience. If things run great it’s a testament to their leadership skills and eye for talent. Of course if we manage to shoulder the burden of entertainment for a mere 48 hours, then it proves that they are not irreplaceable and must then watch their backs. Things have certainly taken a turn towards interesting.
The Dude’s High 5s: The Movies of Tony Scott
As many of you know, Tony Scott recently passed away. I figured I’d throw this High 5 out in tribute to him and his work. Before we get started I do want to say that I am not a Tony Scott fan. I know going into his movies that I am going to get his editing style, his aerial views, and his grainy footage. Despite my distaste for his cinematography, the man always entertained me. So here we go, hit the jump for the highway to the danger zone.
