Following the disappointing Superbowl TV spot, Marvel and the Russo brothers have more than redeemed themselves by dropping what will undoubtedly become one of the highest viewed trailers of all time. Marvel can’t seem to do any wrong. With the outrageous success of Black Panther, their next MCU entry is destined to do just as well or better. Check the trailer out below.
Warner Bros. Pictures and Legendary Pictures have unleashed the new trailer for director Gareth Edwards’ Godzilla which you can watch in the player below. Opening in 3D, 2D and IMAX theaters on May 16, the film stars Aaron Taylor-Johnson, Ken Watanabe, Elizabeth Olsen, Juliette Binoche, Sally Hawkins, David Strathairn and Bryan Cranston. An epic rebirth to Toho’s iconic Godzilla, this spectacular adventure pits the world’s most famous monster against malevolent creatures who, bolstered by humanity’s scientific arrogance, threaten our very existence.
On Tuesday, Marvel’s Iron Man 3 became Disney’s fifth release to cross the $400 million mark at the domestic box office. The film, which has now earned over $1.2 billion and is the #5 film of all time globally, also recently passed Disney’s Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides and is currently the #6 film of all time at the international box office with more than $803 million. After achieving the second-biggest domestic opening in history with $174.1 million, Iron Man 3 crossed the $1 billion threshold globally in 23 days, making it Disney’s sixth billion-dollar and second highest-grossing release of all time, behind only Marvel’s The Avengers.
While doing the research on the box office gross of the latest Ironman film, I came across a small collection done by Marvel in 2010 for ‘Iron Man: Industrial Revolution’ put up by Juan Doe. Check the epic artwork.
Consider the competition slate for the Cannes Film Festival officially scrambled. Or, you know, maybe not: on Thursday, Warner Brothers announced that it was preparing a third installment in the “Hangover” series, its bawdy, billion-dollar grossing comedy franchise about three friends whose travels invariably result in collective memory loss followed by farcical efforts to retrace their troublemaking steps.
Warner Brothers said in a news release that the series stars Bradley Cooper, Ed Helms and Zach Galifianakis would reprise their roles as the three friends, Phil, Stu and Alan, in “The Hangover Part III,” which is planned for release on May 24, 2013. Todd Phillips, who directed the two previous films, is once again on board as director. He will also produce “Part III” and write the script with Craig Mazin, his screenwriting collaborator on “Part II.”
The original “Hangover,” released in 2009, set its characters loose on Las Vegas and sold more than $467 million in tickets worldwide. The 2011 sequel, set in Bangkok, was even more lucrative and grossed a further $581 million globally, but took lumps from critics who called it a retread of the first film.
No setting or plot description for “Part III” was immediately offered, but Mr. Phillips said in a statement: “We’re going to surprise a lot of people with the final chapter we have planned. It will be a fitting conclusion to our three-part opera of mayhem, despair and bad decisions.”
Eminem has been known to support some of his favorite games by donating some of his music to the soundtrack (Call Of Duty/DJ Hero) but Mr. Shady isn’t the only one. If your familiar with DJ Hero, you know that Eminem teamed up with Jay-Z to add some tracks exclusive to the deluxe edition, but this time around, Jay-Z is catching some attention with a remix of 99 Problems that’s being featured in the new Battlefield 3 TV spot. Check the method below.

When a farmer milks a cow for too long, they get kicked off the milking stool… When Hollywood milks a movie for too long, you come up with sh*t like, ‘Fast And Furious 6’, ‘Final Destination 5’, ‘Spy Kids 4D’, and… ‘Paranormal Activity 3’. However, after checking out the preview I was a little impressed by what they were trying to do, and connecting the 3 movies together. I feel like if the studio stopped NOW, the entire single-camera-horror franchise may live longer in peoples minds as a good horror trilogy, instead of just going to hell… like the souls their main characters.
There have been quite a few epic, and captivating franchises in my lifetime. Lord of the Rings, Harry Potter, The Matrix Trilogy, The Step Up franchise (JUST KIDDING). But the new Batman series however, is no joke. The new trailer premiered before The Deathly Hallows Pt. 2, and had tons of people talking. The new trailer features shots of Commissioner Gordon a bit beat up, and talking to Bruce Wayne, as well as a shot of The Dark Knight himself getting WORKED by Bane (above). To see the new trailer, go to the ‘Dark Knight Rises’ website by clicking here.
I’m not sure if I stated that I’m a massive Halo player. (gamertag: DJStormSF on XBox Live. If your a ‘Halo: Reach’ player, come get your ass whooped… I’ll eat your lunch and wrinkle you school clothes.) But I still have respect for the other major shooting titles out there on the current generation systems. Call of Duty being the biggest hitter, and even recently surpassing Blizzard studio’s mega-hit World Of War Craft, C.O.D. is a monster game. And as the game has changed forms over the years, its newest form is Modern Warfare, current scenarios, current weapons, and current technology are what now drive this subdivision of the franchise. But Modern Warfare 3 seems to be an all new beast. The first game to take place in the future, all I could deduce from the trailer is that the events they seem to be covering pertain to World War 3. Check the method below and let me know what your theories are about the plot.
