Fan Film, “Wolverine Vs The Hand” Is Pure Logan Porn.
Gary Shore has gone and done something unexpected. He’s turned Wolverine slicing and dicing his way through a legion of Hand ninjas into something beautiful. In this video, Shore conjures up a fan trailer for the second Wolverine movie, and it’s pretty fucking stunning.

More Banksy Street Art Hits Hollywood. Awesome.
Banksy is one of my good ole heroes, and he’s recently returned to Hollywood with some new street art. Perhaps its in some sort of guerrilla effort to promote Exit Through the Gift Shop, which is currently nominated for an Oscar.

Matthew Vaughn Adapting Comic Book, “The Golden Age”; Wants Clint Eastwood In It.
Matthew Vaughn is adapting the comic book “The Golden Age” by Jonathan Ross and Tommy Lee Edwards, and he wants some fucking starpower to do it. The comic book is about a group of retired superheroes who have to once again don the cloak to help out their grandkids when their own children fuck up the world, and Vaughn wants some big boppers to fill the roles. Atop his wishlist are “Clint Eastwood, Jack Nicholson, and Warren Beatty.”
To dream!
Thoughts? Me? Meh. I’ve seen this concept done to death in the funny books themselves, and Watchmen already took a cinematic dump on the motif.
Is This The First Set Shot From The Dark Knight Rises?
[Note: I wrote this up last night, thought it was too sensationalist, and then discarded it. But then legit places starting pimping it, and if they do, why shouldn’t hits-needy places like OL be a whore as well? Lesson learned: always be a whore.]
Fair warning: The Brother Omega have a aching purple priapism for the forthcoming third Batman flick by Christopher Nolan. It rages within our collective pants, beating against the confines of cotton and denim and zippers. So if you can’t hang with that, you’re going to be doing a lot of scrolling in the next fifteen months or so.
I’m going to be fapping over everything. Like this: a purported first set shot from the film. Shit doesn’t even have to be confirmed for me to get excited about it. This possibly, maybe, could be, a set picture. The elaboration on the origination of this possible picture comes from Nolan Fans:
A photo popped up on the JoBlo forums today of what appears to be the set for Arkham Asylum in The Dark Knight Rises. The poster says, “my good mate who is working on set at cardington where it’s being shot sent me this.” Not quite sure how legit this is, but we’re figured it’s worth a share. Perhaps it’s just a left over set from Batman Begins?

Rumor: Dude Behind “Eagle Eye” To Direct Preacher? Saint of Killers Save Us.
Preacher is a monolith which shouldn’t be touched in various other mediums. Talk of attempting to adapt it into anything, especially a film, is an adequate way to have me doubling my daily prescribed intake of antipsychotics. The current news about who may be directing it is just increasing this anxiety within the rattled halls of my rotting brainstem.
Currently rumored? The fucking guy who directed Eagle Eye, DJ Caruso.
Spider-Man Reboot Gets An Official Title! Plus, New Promo Image.
Oh snap, the Spider-Man reboot has gotten its official title. Hold your breath! Ready? It’s going to be called The Amazing Spider-Man. Shocking? Sort of? Maybe? No? Predictable? None of those responses would surprise me.
It’s amazing that with all the Parker rage going on here at OL from myself and others, I’m eagerly anticipating the flick. I dug Webb’s 500 Days, and Garfield’s performance in the Social Network sold me as well. I’m certain that whatever apathy I have regarding the franchise as a whole won’t prohibit me from giving the reboot a fair chance.

Marion Cotillard Cast In The Dark Knight Rises. Inception Reunion, Wut?
What exactly is going on here? The news coming out of one of the largest papers in France, Le Figaro, is that Marion Cotillard has been cast in The Dark Knight Rises. Back in the fall, there was news that Nolan was casting two female leads in TDR. With Hathaway cast as Selina Kyle, it appears that we’ve got our second leading lady.

Commando, As Told By Alex From Africa
I never thought I would have anything in common with a small boy from Tanzania. That’s in East Africa where they drink the blood of the unborn and the air is filled with AIDS. But me and young Alex, representing the 607, apparently, seem to have the same taste in red-white-and blue action movies. See, Alex loves Commando, the 1985 balls-out Arnold Schwarzenegger movie. And he wants to tell you all about it.
I’m just playing about all that AIDS jive. The video is from Mama Hope, a campaign aimed at educating the ignorant about the true state of contemporary Africa. Not all children are soldiers, but if they keep watching Commando, who knows. (video via FilmDrunk)

New Rumor! Joseph Gordon-Levitt To Play Alberto Falcone In Next Batman.
The rumor machine chugs along! Nothing can stop it. Except the dastardly Truth which won’t be rearing its had around The Dark Knight Rises for a good while now. The latest rumor? Fuck Robin! Joseph Gordon-Levitt is going to be playing Alberto Falcone. It’s just a rumor, but it makes some good fucking sense.
