Crom!  The new Legend of Conan is to build on the end of John Milius and Oliver Stone's first instalment, growing out of that film's final promise of another story for another time, telling us all about Conan the King Do you remember the scene? Here's an image. Most-Read Comic Stories Today: Preview Pages From All New[...]

The show starts again on Sunday, so it's time to start spilling.

Sometimes you just have to balance out those positive thoughts with a trip to the darker sides of life. Last night, at the Arclight Theater in Hollywood, CA, I took that trip when attending the red carpet premiere of Silent Hill: Revelation 3D. Silent Hill: Revelation 3D is the sequel to the beautifully directed, but horribly written[...]

Singer's been closely involved all along and wrote the first treatment for the film, so I think it would be a fairly sensible move from the studio. Vaughn will be likely moving onto to direct another movie for Fox, adapting The Secret Service, the spy comic he created with Mark Millar. Fox will be looking to nail down[...]

Who's for steak?

Patrick Dane writes for Bleeding Cool The Mass Effect videogame franchise is one of my favorite of all time.* Its blend of ideas, characterisation and grand scope all make for one of the most immersive experiences in gaming. A film has been on the cards for a few years now and it is good to see that there[...]

Al Pacino as an ageing Rocker? Hawkeye as his son? An endorsement from Brendon? All this is good news.

MCM London Expo gears up for a weekend of nerd trampling. It all kicks off this Friday.

Jackson knows I'm a big fan of the films. In the interview, Colbert teased that he could be appearing, but it would now seem to be confirmed. In another dose of Hobbit news, Tolkiendrim.com (via The One Ring) have got their mitts on some high resolution pictures of Bolg, a Goblin boss. This now confirms for us that the Phantom[...]

 It's the perfect combination of about 5 different kinds of nerdy data analysis — pausing and screencapping those tightly cut scenes, collating them with known info about the film, blowing up pixels to look for secrets, identifying locations, and comparing it all with the accepted comic book canon  It's all a lot of work, so[...]

Of course, it's remixed and built on for film, but still — if you made a list of Spider-Man storylines that they'd likely build a movie around sooner or later, this one would be pretty high on your list.

Millar's got all of those Fox movies to tease us with now as well.

Bond at 50:  Only a fool would describe Skyfall as the best Bond film ever They're all so different for one thing How do you compare Tim Dalton's tight-lipped determination to keep 007's elegantly-shod feet on the ground with Roger Moore's predilection for tap-dancing his way into self-parody? How do you measure Sean Connery's smoky,[...]

And then other times you KNOW you are in trouble with your boss. When the head of Warner Brothers Jeff Robinov comes onto your set because your film is running 5 day behind schedule, you know you are in trouble with your boss When he then sends producer Dennis Di Novi out as the "studio representative"[...]

The "Duty-doody" joke riffs on something in the film but… well, as a pastiche of a modern video game commercial, that failed on pretty much every count Anyway, it completes the set after the nifty Fix-It Felix Jr promo and so-so Sugar Rush Speedway one. As expected, here's a trailer for Hero's Duty, the most[...]
