So, more art, allegedly from the Green Lantern movie, surfaced. These are apparently concept art and like the previous batch of images, they’re depicting how the characters will look like in the movie. Now we have Sinestro and a Guardian of the Universe. The Guardian picture is consistent with the previous ones, and Sinestro’s artwork looks a bit different.

From Latino Review:

Of course, there’s a catch. I can’t find any site with an official source confirming that this is indeed concept art from the film, but a person on TheGreenLanternCorps.com’s forum stated that they knew an unnamed source who had stated these images were concept art from the movie.

Now with that caveat in mind, let’s check the images! Read the rest of this entry »

I don’t know if these are real or not, but I’m blown away just the same. Apparently, Green Lantern movie concept art has been leaked and… Christ, it’s perfect. I’m going to shut up now and I’ll let the pictures speak for themselves:

If these are indeed the real thing, then I can say that they are getting it totally right! Unlike the abomination of the previous concept art that was going around the internet before, they’re actually using the classic costumes! I like this. I hope this is indeed legit, and the movie becomes awesome.

By the way, those images came from Cosmic Book News, where they also managed to somehow get their hands on a GL script. They’ve posted a spoiler-filled summary of the script. Again, take it with a grain of salt.

What do you guys think? Is this the real thing? Or is that dude just pulling our legs? Tell me all about it by leaving a comment!

I may be indifferent to most of Mark Millar’s works, but Kick-Ass is one of my favorite comics. I just find it funny how the movie gets finished first before the graphic novel. I’m pretty sure all of us comic book nerds have dreamed of going out in a costume and fighting crime. In fact, you can all place bets on which Comicgasm writer will snap first and do a Kick-Ass! (My money’s on Fiel)

Speaking of the Kick-Ass movie, here’s the trailer. Relish it. It’s fucking awesome.

Kick-Ass, directed by Matthew Vaughn and starring Aaron Johnson, Nicolas Cage, Chloe Moretz and Christopher Mintz-Plasse, opens in April 2010.

YES! My first post after a hiatus and my first Marvel related post at the same time. Looking at the current Disney buying Marvel context, I wonder if the 2011 movie Hands of Shang Chi will have Disney’s say on it? Read the rest of this entry »

How many movies translated from comics, games, old cartoons, etc. has a cast that caters to its fans? Not many I assume.

The thing is, movie companies are always just about making PROFIT! So they go overboard in catering to the target market and thus we have an American Son Goku, a frail looking man as Eddie Brock and Ben Affleck as Daredevil.

And this is why The Tekken Movie BLOWS me away. I assumed an American would be playing Jin blah blah blah…

And I was 50% right! He’s an American-Asian martial artist – which makes it even better! This is Jon Foo as Jin Kazama.

I was with David Nakpil when we checked out the full cast – here are the ones that got our minds blowing!

Cary Hiroyuki Tagawa as Heihachi Mishima – remember the 1st Mortal Kombat movie? He was Shang Tsung. Yes he’s still buff. And yes, he’s much older than that picture now.

Green Lantern fans await the movie a hell lot… So much that a couple of fan made trailers were made:

DC is going to have to do a good job to keep up with the HYPE!

Look at this ultra-detailed Comedian figure, made by the maddeningly awesome Hot Toys. This looks like it’s based on the Watchmen movie Comedian, not on his comic-book counterpart. Just look at the Jeffrey Dean Morgan likeness. Seriously, I want one. After which I’ll reenact the stuff he was most famous for: raping Silk Spectre I and shooting pregnant Vietnamese women in the face.

It’s rape-eriffic! I just wanna know how much I can’t afford it!

Also, comic book reviews are coming later.
