The much-awaited trailer for The Incredible Hulk is finally here. Edward Norton (one of my favorite actors) plays the Hulk (one of my favorite superheroes) in this ‘rebooted’ movie version of the much misunderstood, Marvel Comics giant.

The first teaser trailer for the upcoming X-Files 2 movie was shown at Wondercon. Judging by the reaction of the crowd in this low-quality, bootleg clip, it’s obvious that Dana Scully (the gorgeous Gillian Andersen) & Fox Mulder (David Duchovny) will always have a special place in popular culture.
Unfortunately, I’m not sure if any [...]

Forget about the news of Tony Stark (Iron Man) making a guest appearance in the upcoming Hulk Movie. Now imagine, Spider-man, El Mariachi, and a Mecha/Gundam robot, all coming together in a movie. That [...]
Indiana Jones and the Kingdom Of The Crystal Skull Trailer
Published February 15th, 2008 in Movie Trailers and Movies. 1 CommentThe first trailer for the upcoming Indiana Jones and the Kingdom Of The Crystal Skull is out, and it’s, I’m embarrassed to admit, really cool.

Firefly - Free Fan Fiction Novel
Published February 9th, 2008 in Books, Movies and Tv Shows. 0 CommentsI am a big fan of the sci-fi movie Serenity, which was based on the short-lived Firefly series on Fox network. The movie gave a new meaning to the term ‘ space western’, and I, for one, especially enjoyed the adventures of the various characters that made up the Serenity’s motley crew. Disappointingly, the director [...]

I Drink Your Blood - Exploitation Film Trailer
Published February 4th, 2008 in Movie Trailers, Movies and Retro. 0 CommentsMore retro movie madness this time. I Drink your Blood / I Eat Your Skin was a 1970 double feature, a monstrosity which was "inspired" by the the vicious crimes of the Charles Manson family.
The film is a prime example of the sort of seedy exploitation fare, routinely churned out by ‘B’ Grade movie production [...]
This is quite interesting. John Mueller, terrorism expert, author, and professor at the Ohio State University, has analysed how the character Rambo has changed over the years.

Here was a red, monkey tailed, lovable demon from hell, who battled hell hounds and massive, old [...]
Watch the final climatic moments of ‘Korkusuz’, a Turkish film directed by cult film legend Cetin Inanc.
The film’s main lead has obviously been modeled on John Rambo, the defining action hero of the 80’s, and soon to be resurrected and played by a man in his ’80s (That was a joke, a poor one, but [...]
The Dark Knight Official Movie Trailer
Published December 17th, 2007 in Movie Trailers and Movies. 0 CommentsThe much anticipated official movie trailer for The Dark Knight is finally here. The movie is director Christopher Nolan’s sequel to Batman Begins. In Batman Begins, Nolan completely mesmerized us with his technical prowess and storytelling abilities.

Published December 9th, 2007 in Movie Trailers and Movies. 0 Comments
This is so bad, that it’s good. I almost thought that this was a spoof of Tarentino’s Grindhouse and Kill Bill movies, but it’s actually the official trailer for ‘The Machine Girl‘ (Kataude Mashin Gâru), a Japanese exploitation flick.
The movie is about the quest of Ami, a teenage Japanese girl out to avenge [...]
The Orphanage (El Orfanato) was one of most successful and critically acclaimed movies of the year 2007, in Spain.

The movie was [...]
