Trailer Exam | The Green Lantern
Not the biggest fan of this pose.
In the past few years I’ve become a fairly massive fan of the DC Comics character The Green Lantern thanks to the work of writer/DC Executive officer Geoff Johns. So naturally Martin Campbell’s upcoming film adaptation of the hero is something I’ve been looking forward to for several years now. I haven’t agreed with all the casting choices mainly Ryan Reynolds in the lead role of Hal Jordon, but I’ve since warmed to this decision. Last Friday when Entertainment Tonight debuted several seconds of the film’s trailer feelings were mixed. Reynolds classic Van Wilder style of comedy was largely featured, leaving me a little annoyed. Even more worrying was what seemed to be some sketchy CGI, especially Jordan’s Lantern suit. Well, now the full trailer has debuted, and after watching it several times I’m both apprehensive and pretty excited. Watch below or check it out here in HD as well.

2. a peculiar or otherwise dislikable person, esp. one who is perceived to be overly intellectual.
3. A carnival performer who performs sensationally morbid or disgusting acts, as biting off the head of a live chicken.
Zack Synder is the king of Comic Con debuting footage from his past works like 300, and Watchmen to great success there. While I have mixed feelings about both of those movies I can’t help but still be excited about his visual style. Which this trailer for his upcoming “female 300″ Sucker Punch has in spades. Here’s the plot description:
Sucker Punch is an epic action fantasy that takes us into the vivid imagination of a young girl whose dream world provides the ultimate escape from her darker reality. Unrestrained by the boundaries of time and place, she is free to go where her mind takes her, but her incredible adventures blur the lines between what’s real and what is imaginary…with potentially tragic consequences.

When the word broke that Ryan Reynolds‘ suit in Martin Campbell’s Green Lantern would be totally CGI, feelings were mixed in the fan community. After all practical effects always seem to feel more real. However, after seeing the first image of Reynolds in the suit below I must say that I’m warming to the idea. Read the rest of this entry »

A “reliable source” from website www.firstshowing.net has gotten it’s hands on a casting grid for Batman 3 indicating that The Riddler is the primary villain in the film. A casting grid is basically a chart for agents and studios to keep them abreast of what roles need to be cast in said film. The site is also claiming that the chart puts actor Joseph Gordon-Levitt in the top spot for the role. The casting could be feasible considering Levitt’s recent work with Nolan in Inception, and I’d be down with him playing the part as he’s a fantastic young actor. However, I’m still holding out hope that Nolan and his brother, Batman 3 screenwriter Jonathan Nolan, will go with a villain we haven’t seen before. This would be more in line with every statement all the creators have made regarding the 3rd film in the series. Read the rest of this entry »
