Check Out Kryptonian Script On New Superman Costume

Earlier saw Batman Vs. Superman costume designer Michael Wilkinson make mention that Zack Snyder added Kryptonian script (writing) to the Man of Steel costume, and now we get an up-close look at the new Superman costume.

A user on Reddit uploaded the images to Imgur where the Kryptonian writing can be found on Superman’s chest shield, arms (just above the biceps), wrists, waste and belt.

“Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice” has a March 25, 2016 release starring Ben Affleck as Batman, Henry Cavill as Superman, Gal Gadot as Wonder Woman, Amy Adams as Lois Lane, Laurence Fishburne as Perry White, Diane Lane as Martha Kent, Jeremy Irons as Alfred, Jesse Eisenberg as Lex Luthor, Ray Fisher as Cyborg with Callan Mulvey, Holly Hunter as Senator Finch and Tao Okamoto as Mercy Graves. Justice League is to follow directed by Zack Snyder as well.

Synopsis:

Fearing the actions of a god-like Super Hero left unchecked, Gotham City’s own formidable, forceful vigilante takes on Metropolis’s most revered, modern-day savior, while the world wrestles with what sort of hero it really needs. And with Batman and Superman at war with one another, a new threat quickly arises, putting mankind in greater danger than it’s ever known before.

Kevin Conroy Ruins 9-Year-Old Boy’s Batman Fun

[[wysiwyg_imageupload:21778:]]

Per the norm, the liberal Hollywood web sites and blogs blew up yesterday when a nine-year-old boy asked Donald Trump if he’s Batman.

Trump responded to the youngster with an affirmative: “I am Batman.”

The video lasted all about seven seconds, but various sites rolled with it, taking the opportunity to take jabs at presidential hopeful Donald Trump (much like the Boston Herald tried and failed when interviewing Stan Lee).

Now the latest is in regards to – “I am vengeance. I am the night. I am Batman.”-  himself, Kevin Conroy.

Conroy, known for portraying the voice of Batman in the animated movies and series, actually took to Twitter to ruin the nine-year-old boy’s fun.

Conroy tweeted a pic of himself in front of a Batman: Arkham Knight video game display adding: “I hear a guy with a big mouth & bad hair running for president claims to be Batman. Let’s be clear he is NOT Batman!”

It should be noted the boy and his parents were on the fence in regards to voting for Donald Trump, so it’s not like they were Trump supporters. I’m guessing the boy, an obvious Batman fan, knew both Bruce Wayne and Donald Trump are wealthy and decided to have some fun.

Nice to spoil it, Kevin. Keep it classy.

Michael Wilkinson Talks New Batman, Superman, Wonder Woman & Aquaman Costumes

[[wysiwyg_imageupload:21772:]]

Oscar-nominated costume designer Michael Wilkinson, noted for American Hustle, Tron and Zack Snyder’s Watchmen, Sucker Punch, 300 and Man of Steel, returns for Batman Vs. Superman and Justice League.

People’s Choice caught up with Wilkinson who is in Las Vegas for the MAGIC Panel at the Las Vegas Convention Center where the following was offered about the new Batman Vs. Superman costumes:

Updated Superman Costume:

We tweaked the Superman suit only slightly from our suit from Man of Steel. We streamlined plus sharpened the details of the costume a little to suit the more earthly (less alien) context of this film. 

Zack had a great idea to have some kryptonian script [writing] subliminally included in the details of the suit, so we made that happen (update: you can check out details images of the scripts in Superman’s costume here). 

Ben Affleck’s Batman Costume:

The batsuit is a complete 180 degree turn from the previous film incarnations — our Batman’s power comes from his incredible physical strength and fighting skills, not from armor. The director Zack Snyder wanted him to look as much like the comic book version as possible — to be respectful to the original source.

My favorite details of the batsuit are the brass knuckles on the gloves. 

Gal Gadot Wonder Woman Costume:

As for the Wonder Woman suit, well she has never been seen in a film before, so there was nothing to compare it to! There is of course the costume from the TV show. Zack wanted our character to be a fierce and intimidating warrior — gritty, battle-scarred and immortal.

There is ancient Greek script [writing] on Wonder Woman’s weapons too.

Jason Momoa Aquaman Costume: (note: Wilkinson looks to have confirmed Momoa will be seen in the Aquaman costume in Batman Vs. Superman):

It was pretty hard to get Jason to get out of his Aquaman costume. It really became part of him.

Here are pics of the new costumes (click to enlarge):

The Walking Dead: No Man’s Land Mobile Game Trailer

Next Games, the Finnish mobile games studio, and AMC today revealed the first gameplay trailer and key details of the official mobile game based on AMC’s record-breaking hit TV show The Walking Dead. 

The Walking Dead: No Man’s Land, an action-packed strategy game, will allow players to experience the world of the iconic TV series with its spine-chilling moments through gameplay tailored for touch screen devices.

The Walking Dead: No Man’s Land is centered around surviving in a hostile, post-apocalyptic world, fighting the walker menace and making tough choices about the fate of the player’s survivor group. During the course of the game, players will need to choose the right people with the right skills and weapons to take down walkers, survive missions and save other survivors. A recurring theme of choosing the best survival strategy and making the right tactical choices is at the heart of the game.

Daryl Dixon, the crossbow-toting, fan-favorite character, portrayed by actor Norman Reedus in the TV series, helps the player get established in the game and guides players in the final points of survival and combat with the undead. Danger is everywhere, as fans face hordes of walkers in locations familiar from the TV show.

“The Walking Dead: No Man’s Land is devotedly crafted for ‘The Walking Dead’ fans. We are very excited about the momentous opportunity to bring one of the most adored TV shows into the mobile realm in collaboration with our partner AMC, the creators of the TV series,” said Teemu Huuhtanen, CEO at Next Games. “We combine IP, TV show talent and join forces with AMC in a never-seen-before way. This game is a big first step in Next Games’ strategy to become the premier partner for TV networks, movie studios and beyond who aspire to work with a veteran game studio in extending their IP into mobile games.”

“The Walking Dead: No Man’s Land has the thrill of hand-to-hand walker combat, but players also get the opportunity to solve strategic puzzles, build their own survival refuge and develop their group,” said Mac McKean, senior vice president of digital media for AMC and SundanceTV. “It’s a beautifully rendered, thoughtful and engaging mobile game, and we’re so pleased with what our partners at Next Games have created. We’re looking forward to giving fans an exciting new way to engage with the world of The Walking Dead.”

AMC’s “The Walking Dead,” the highest rated basic cable program in the history of television and the #1 show on TV in the U.S. among adults 18-49 for three years in a row, will kick off its sixth season on Sunday, October 11th at 9:00 p.m. ET/PT with an extended 90-minute episode.

The Walking Dead: No Man’s Land game is slated for launch on iPhone, iPad amd iPod touch in conjunction with season 6 of The Walking Dead this October.

Until Dawn PS4 Live-Action Interactive Trailer

Check out the live-action trailer above for PS4’s upcoming horror game Until Dawn.

From the Film Director:
We took our inspiration from the many choices presented in the game and from its cinematic style. We want to give the viewer a feeling of what it’s like being caught up with a killer on the loose – having to make life threatening decisions on the run. 
Most people can relate to watching a horror and disapprove of the decisions made by the main protagonists. 
Now you can actually have a say in them – and carry full responsibility if the protagonist gets away or is killed in a brutal way …we find that extremely cool!

Until Dawn has an August 25th release.

Info:

The wind blows through the trees atop the mountain as sunset turns to twilight. One of the most beautiful times of the day is supposed to be one of relaxation and recollection — but this night isn’t like most nights. Your friends and you are trapped here in a remote retreat — but you’re not alone. Tensions are running high, dread grips the group and no one knows what the next minute will bring. You’ll have to fight through the fear to make it through the night. Do you have what it takes to last Until Dawn?

Written in collaboration with cult writers/directors Larry Fessenden and Graham Reznick, Until Dawn plunges you into a remote mountain retreat where a group of eight friends is trapped. Fear permeates the group, and dread lurks around every corner as you are not alone. Every decision matters, as each choice you make has a ripple effect that may save a life — or place someone in grave peril. Branching storylines ensure no two gameplay experiences will be the same as you carve your path to survival. Immerse yourself in the horror with the power of the Killzone Shadow Fall engine that delivers realistic visuals and edge-of-your-seat gameplay. Who will survive?

Evangeline Lilly Scanned For Wasp Costume & Is Writing A Comic

[[wysiwyg_imageupload:21762:]]

Evangeline Lilly is currently starring in the Ant-Man movie as Hope Van Dyne, daughter to Hank Pym and Janet Van Dyne.

As seen in the Ant-Man post-credit scene, Hank Pym gave Hope the Wasp suit.

Now while participating in a fan Q&A on Facebook, Evangeline Lilly reveals she was scanned for the Wasp costume, but not able to try it on as she is currently about eight months pregnant. 

Lilly also commented that she is writing a comic book next year, though it’s not a super hero character.

It was also previously revealed that Wasp has been cut from Captain America: Civil War, but there are big plans for Wasp in a future Marvel movie.

Check out what Lilly had to say:

Wasp Costume:

Oh! And I was scanned for #TheWasp suit, but then I got pregnant. Let’s hope I fit it again! #ineedtime! [winks]

No. I’ve been too pregnant

Writing a comic:

I am writing one next year. So, I have to keep it a surprise. It’s not a superhero, but she is a very cool heroine.

Fighting Hulk:

I love your ideas and will share them with Marvel! I would love to see Wasp fight The Incredible Hulk. I think she would just roll her eyes at his temper and fly circles around him until he was exasperated. smile emoticon Haha!

Difference between Edgar Wright and Peyton Reed’s Hope:

She became more relatable and a little less like an original, 1960’s comic book character. I LOVED both versions, but the version we settled with fit better in the #marvelverse. I’d still love to do Edgar Wright’s version, too.

On Marvel movies and who she would like to work with:

I haven’t seen them all, but I really liked Winter Soldier for the powerful political commentary and who doesn’t love RDJ as #IronMan?? That said, I would love to work with #MarkRuffalo. I think it would be fun to see the interchange between Paul and my tiny characters and him.

A cut scene:

You wouldn’t know it to watch it, but the dinner scene between #CoreyStoll’s character and mine had me in stitches when we shot it. They cut a lot out.

Peter Parker Spoiler Scene Revealed For Captain America: Civil War

[[wysiwyg_imageupload:21761:]]

Not a major spoiler for Peter Parker and Captain America: Civil War, but I know how testy some of you guys can get (especially on Facebook) in regards to “spoilers.”

So you have been warned.

We get a tidbit regarding what goes down with Peter Parker in Captain America: Civil War in that Peter Parker’s bedroom will be featured in the movie.

Again, nothing major, but it’s learned Peter Parker’s bedroom will be featured in some capacity in Captain America: Civil War as an Atlanta Prop house supplied the furniture (via 11alive.com).

Earlier it was stated that Tom Holland already filmed scenes in Atlanta, and now we have an idea in that it looks as if Tom Holland filmed a scene as Peter Parker in his bedroom.

Note: Holland doesn’t appear to be done filming Captain America: Civil War as the actor was spotted in Germany as well, so in addition to the bedroom scene, Peter Parker looks to possibly have additional scenes (which hints at more than a cameo).

Here’s the pic of a desk and chair from Peter Parker’s bedroom in Captain America: Civil War:

[[wysiwyg_imageupload:21760:]]

“Captain America: Civil War” has  a May 6, 2016 release date directed by Anthony and Joe Russo starring Chris Evans, Robert Downey Jr., Scarlett Johansson, Jeremy Renner, Elizabeth Olsen, Sebastian Stan, Anthony Mackie, Frank Grillo, Paul Bettany, Don Cheadle, Emily VanCamp, William Hurt, Martin Freeman and Chadwick Boseman as Black Panther.

Synopsis:

Captain America: Civil War picks up where Avengers: Age of Ultron left off, as Steve Rogers leads the new team of Avengers in their continued efforts to safeguard humanity. After another international incident involving the Avengers results in collateral damage, political pressure mounts to install a system of accountability and a governing body to determine when to enlist the services of the team. The new status quo fractures the Avengers while they try to protect the world from a new and nefarious villain.

It will be directed by multiple Emmy Award nominee Tony Cervone (“Space Jam,” Cartoon Network’s “The Looney Tunes Show” and “Scooby-Doo! Mystery Incorporated”).

As one of their most famous brand ambassadors, Scooby-Doo will take the lead in re-introducing this pantheon of enduringly popular animated stars on a grand scale with an exciting new movie.”

Said Fellman, “It’s always a treat to see Scooby-Doo on the big screen and to share his larger-than-life adventures with audiences. As anticipation grows throughout production, the movie’s mid-September release date should start the fall season with a burst of fun.”

Added Kroll, “It’s wonderful to be working with this talented and inspired team of filmmakers. We couldn’t ask for better producers than Charles Roven, Richard Suckle and Allison Abbate, who have such affection and respect for this property and know the Hanna-Barbera universe so well.” Kwan Vandenberg further stated, “Scooby-Doo and his friends have the kind of universal appeal that reaches across cultures as well as generations. We expect this new take on the franchise to generate even more fans around the world.”

Tom Holland In Germany For Captain America: Civil War

[[wysiwyg_imageupload:21741:]]

Disney recently confirmed Tom Holland for Captain America: Civil War, and now images have surfaced of Holland in Germany.

Marvel is currently filming Captain America: Civil War in Germany where set images have revealed Chris Evans, Scarlett Johansson, Anthony Mackie, Sebastian Stan, Daniel Bruhl and Chadwick Boseman taking part in filming scenes.

An earlier report made mention that Holland had already filmed his scenes, but it appears from the below set pics that the new Spider-Man is back for more. It’s possible that Holland’s role may be more than a cameo, as was initially rumored.

Tom Holland also recently commented on Spider-Man telling Entertainment Weekly: “I’ve been really strongly advised that I’m not allowed to answer anything on that note. I’m really sorry. Trust me, I’d love to tell you. But I have one person staring straight at me going, ‘No!'”

“Captain America: Civil War” has  a May 6, 2016 release date directed by Anthony and Joe Russo starring Chris Evans, Robert Downey Jr., Scarlett Johansson, Jeremy Renner, Elizabeth Olsen, Sebastian Stan, Anthony Mackie, Frank Grillo, Paul Bettany, Don Cheadle, Emily VanCamp, William Hurt, Martin Freeman and Chadwick Boseman as Black Panther.

Synopsis:

Captain America: Civil War picks up where Avengers: Age of Ultron left off, as Steve Rogers leads the new team of Avengers in their continued efforts to safeguard humanity. After another international incident involving the Avengers results in collateral damage, political pressure mounts to install a system of accountability and a governing body to determine when to enlist the services of the team. The new status quo fractures the Avengers while they try to protect the world from a new and nefarious villain.

Baltimore Batman Killed In Car Accident

[[wysiwyg_imageupload:21740:]]

Lenny Robinson, age 51, known as the “Baltimore Batman,” died after being hit by a car Sunday night.

Robinson, who often dressed up as the Dark Knight to visit sick kids, was driving his custom “Batmobile” Lamborghini when it broke down on Interstate 70 in Maryland.

According to reports, Robinson was coming home from a car show when his Lamborghini experienced engine trouble. Robinson pulled over, but the car was said to be partially in the eastbound passing lane when his Lamborghini was struck by another car, which caused the Lamborghini to slam into Robinson, killing him.

Robinson was pronounced dead on the scene; the other driver was uninjured and no charges have been filed.

Lenny Robinson was first noticed as the “Baltimore Batman” when he was pulled over by police in 2012 for having no plates. The plates were actually inside the vehicle as Robinson used the Bat symbol on the car in their place.

Mad Max Choose Your Path Interactive Trailer

Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment released a new interactive trailer for the upcoming Mad Max video game.

The game becomes available September 1st.

The barren landscape stretches out before you, seemingly unending with no signs of life and no relief from the relentless sun. As you navigate your battering ram of a vehicle over the remnants of a long-abandoned highway, you contemplate this existence you call life. There is no mercy in this post-apocalyptic world and no solace — only the instinctual quest for survival and the cold comfort that is vengeance. You’ve become a lone warrior, a reluctant hero, but only because your choices were that or death. The only thing that gives you any hope is the thought of leaving this madness behind and finding peace at last in the storied Plains of Silence. You are Mad Max, and these are the end of times.

Embark on a dangerous journey through the Wasteland that is this post-apocalyptic world on a quest to retrieve your Interceptor, which has been stolen by a deadly gang of marauders. Take on each foe with brutal moves and combos that are your only chance of beating the deranged bandits of the Wasteland. Scavenge the landscape for the scraps you need to craft and upgrade equipment, vehicles and weapons — your lifelines in this unforgiving setting. With the ability to construct the ultimate war vehicle by choosing from dozens of customizable parts and upgrade combinations and arming your vehicle with a slew of deadly weapons, you can annihilate enemy vehicles in dynamic, physics-based vehicular combat. As you explore the vast, open-world environment of the Wasteland, take on unique missions and side quests, eliminate eccentric bandits and battle savage gangs. There’s only one thing to live for now — revenge.

Hugh Jackman Teases Sabretooth & Berserker Rage For The Wolverine 3

[[wysiwyg_imageupload:21738:]]

In addition to Parick Stewart returning as Professor Xavier for the sequel to The Wolverine, it’s possible Sabretooth may make an appearance.

Recently, Hugh Jackman took to his social networks to ask fans what they wanted one last time. The majority of responses was in regards to Wolverine wearing the classic yellow costume, but while taking part in a podcast, Jackman let two other requests be known. Jackman says a lot of fans want to see Sabretooth return as well as many fans want to see the infamous Berserker Rage from the comics, and of course, many fans want Jackman to stick around.

There were a lot of calls for Victor Creed to come back, there was… I must admit I was quite heartened by a number of people saying please don’t make it the last, but I’m really excited about this last one, and if you’re a comic book fan, then the words ‘berserker rage’ came up a lot, so if you know Wolverine, you’ll understand.

Update: Sabretooth actor Liev Shreiber has noticed Hugh’s comments.

The as of yet untitled Wolverine sequel has a March 3, 2017 release with James Mangold returning to direct.
