‘Neuromancer’ movie gains funding, loses director Vincenzo Natali
Must be a cyberpunk kind of week. We got some news already about Blade Runner‘s cinematographer, and now it’s been announced that Neuromancer has found itself some funding. I am cautiously optimistic about an adaptation of one of my favorite novels. Ever.
‘Blade Runner’ sequel being shot by one of the greatest cinematographers. Ever.
Fuck, man. How am I not supposed to be excited about Blade Runner 2: Unnecessary Sequel? Ryan Gosling. Denis Villeneuve. And now Roger Deakins.
OMEGA-CAST #16: Ultron’s Zany Zeitgeist Genocide
They’re back! This time the Dickheads Chaperoning the Space-Ship Omega dive into their general malaise regarding Age of Ultron. They also discuss that Star Wars movie coming up to the point of nausea. At one point, CaffPow’s discusses the depression that follows signing up for porn sites that haven’t been updated since 2001. We also cover Bateman’s crosswalk stop light fetish, and maybe a little about Daredevil. Dim the lights, doff your pants, and join them in their insanity. You can listen on iTunes, Stitcher, or after the jump.

Robert Kirkman is the guy behind Walking Dead. Now he may also be the gentleman behind unfucking the notoriously horrible Transformers franchise.
DC Comics announces new marketing campaign, “DC You” to spotlight diversity in creators, stories, and characters
While I don’t really fuck with DC on the norm, I’m digging their upcoming push of diverse creators, characters, and talent. Their post-Convergence line-up is bringing fresh faces both fictionally and creatively, and I’m excited to actually get back into their Universe. I mean, I’ll check out anything Gene Luen Yang is writing, or Annie Wu is drawing. So I’m sold.
‘Captain Ameirca: Civil War’ Set Photos: Crossbones and Cap throwin’ down
I’m a bit more cavalier about covering Captain America: Civil War set-photos that I am other properties. For some reason I don’t approach spoilers in adaptations of known comic book stories with the same reservation as I do other properties. For better or worse. So yeah, I’m digging these set-photos. And I’m sweating this flick.
Sony’s new studio is focused on its virtual reality headset, Project Morpheus
Sony’s got a new studio focused on producing for the company’s virtual reality headset. And maybe I should have mentioned this earlier, but like, isn’t the peripheral’s codename just fucking perfect? Morpheus. Just strap this little bit of technology on, and go to sleep. Forget your life, problems, the world. Check out and write us checks for your eternal, now all-encompassing distraction. Or something. IDFK.
