Ahh, the art some people will create, given enough time – and LEGOs.
Here’s the trailer for "The Dark Knight" rendered entirely out of LEGOs. Yes, LEGOs. It’s really impressive in that "I would never have the patience to do this myself" way:
Marvel.com has posted a screencap from this weekend’s much-hyped "Iron Man" trailer scheduled to air during the Superbowl. The screencap shows Tony stark (Robert Downey, Jr.) testing a new suit.
They also promise to post the full trailer on Marvel.com immediately after it goes on the air, just in case you were in the kitchen getting more chips when the promo appeared.
You can see a full-size version of the image on Marvel.com.
Oni Press is offering a free 23-page preview of the comic tie-in to Jumper, the upcoming big-screen adaptation of the Steven Gould novel. The film stars Hayden Christiansen and Samuel L. Jackson.
From the description of Jumper: Jumpscars:
For centuries Jumpers have lived among us — special individuals with the ability to teleport or "jump" nearly anywhere in the world. For almost as long, the Paladins, a secret and powerful order, have protected us from these dangerous and unpredictable individuals, sacrificing everything to keep humanity safe!
The comic tie-in will be available February 13, while the film opens the following day.
Those of you brave enough to come out from under your beds after seeing Cloverfield might even bravely venture over to the keyboard to run down a couple of hot links we gathered for you this week:
Moviefone recently posted the first photo from the upcoming Star Trek feature film. The shot depicts a somewhat grainy U.S.S. Enterprise.
The first trailer for the J.J. Abrams-helmed Star Trek is expected to be shown during this weekend’s premiere of another much-anticipated Abrams project, Cloverfield.
When you stop to think about it, there are a lot of similarities in the stories of Dorothy and Alice and now the connection is much deeper than we ever imagined. The critically acclaimed indy series Oz – Wonderland Chronicles might have passed you by, take a minute for ComicMix Radio as we preview the title with one of the creators. Plus:• It’s finally a Merry Middle Earth Christmas
• Got an idea for a super heroine? Shadowline is listening!
• It’s seven-in-a-row for The X-Men arc "The Messiah Complex"
Press The Button now, and pass the eggnog!
When naughtiness strikes the city, a letter is sent to the North Pole where our hero waits in his Workshop of Solitude… or so I presume, my German’s a bit spotty.
But really, what’s to know?
It’s Santa Claus. With martial arts training. And a big honking motorbike named Rudolph. He goes from town to town, dispensing presents– and justice. All for milk and cookies.
And we already know where he gets his wonderful toys.
Here, watch the trailer, and try not to tell me that someone should make a holiday special out of this…
The Big ComicMix Broadcast starts our Second One Hundred with an exclusive preview of another Phase Two Project cooking up FREE from ComicMix. You take a cute girl, toss in a cartoon dinosaur and stir up a lot of wacky adventures and out pops Andrew Pepoy’s The Adventures of Simon & Ajax!
Plus Superman has the Deadline Doom, the Top Ten Comics & Graphic Novels are revealed and we play a game of "Where Did I Hear That Before"??
