I don't know what to make of this. I never read the Thor comics. I always stuck to Spiderman, Wolverine, Batman and Green Lantern (I loved Firestorm too, but no one even knows who he was anymore).
The movie sure looks slick. I wonder if it'll find an audience. Oh, I know it's got a huge marketing campaign. But fantasy superheroes don't seem to work well in the mainstream. I guess if they make magic mean technology they'll have a chance.

I've been looking forward to this movie for a while now. I read the screenplay and it was a pretty cool ride. Let's hope they pulled it off well.

The Haitian movie, KRAZE, I've been promoting in the sidebar has won BEST WORLD CINEMA FEATURE HONORABLE MENTION at the DIY Film Festival.
I just wanted to give a shout out to my friends who made it and say congratulations. Even though it's not scifi it's still a cool flick and deserves any awards it wins. Check out the official site or just watch the trailer below.

Post-apocalyptic priest vampire hunters? I'm for it!
This looks crazy. I've never read the graphic novel, but it seems like it could be a nice premise. Some cliche camera angles, but all in all looks good.

Not sure what to make of this. It looks great, but I find myself wishing it wasn't a comedy.

As a kid I loved the Green Lantern, so when I heard they were making a live-action movie got worried. It's a tough character and world to do right, especially in this day and age.
We have no heroes and personal flaws are not only pointed out, but celebrated. Filmmakers seem incapable of creating a heroic figure. (Though, I'll give Sam Raimi credit for breaking that mold with his Spiderman films.)
The trailer looks, but whole responsibility arc seems disturbing. I know why they did it. But, it's just so simplistic and cliche.

I'm still not sure what to think about this movie. Looks cool, but the concept seems tough to pull off. I hope they prove me wrong.

This looks pretty good. Hopefully, it's a fun movie.

Just came across this review of the James Cameron produced Sanctum. I'm interested in checking this movie out. The scenery alone looks awesome, so if it's a fun adventure it'll be all the more worth watching.

I just watched Pandorum last night and I really enjoyed it. Nothing too original or unique (if you read a lot of science fiction), but still a nice science fiction film. The cast is great and so are the sets. But the story really stands out. A sleeper ship is sent out to colonize a new world, but something goes horribly wrong.
Though, the thing that sets this apart from other lower budget sci-fi movies is that there is dramatic tension. The director and the cast work together to create a believable atmosphere of suspense that pulls the viewer along for the ride. If you're trolling Netflix for a decent sci-fi flick this is it.
Check out the official site for some clips, wallpapers and cast/crew bios.

I hope someone picks it up. The book is awesome and I'd love to see it on the big screen.

Terry Gilliam is getting behind a fascinating animated film. I hope it gets made. It looks great. Check out the promos.

Anne Hathaway is now Catwoman and Tom Hardy (Star trek: Nemesis) is now Bane or so says Warner Bros. I think The Dark Knight Rises is shaping up. Christopher Nolan is genius, so I know the screenplay is going to be great. But, I am concerned. Bane is not a good villian. At all. Oh, I know he broke Batman's back but so what. He's uninteresting. There are so many Batman villians that are far better. Maybe Nolan can work his magic and reinvent him, though.

After looking into this film a bit, I'm excited. I'm not a fan of reboots or prequels, but this looks like it has promise. The franchise has so much potential, so I'm glad Fox is givng it another go.

Rumors are swirling that the next Star Trek movie will be in 3D. I understand why Paramount would want this, since 3D tickets are more expensive. But, I'm not wild about it. I'd prefer a good story that makes sense than gimmicks. Though, days of getting those are probably over. Still, I love that Star Trek is getting the attention. Who would have ever thought Star Trek would be producing huge blockbusters?

Now, this looks good. This movie is on my "watch in theater" list to be sure. Great cast. Great director. I've heard the graphic novel it's based on is great as well. Can't wait.

Looks pretty typical. Lots of explosions and mayhem. Will I watch it? Of couse, but I'll probably rant about how it was a standard alien flick.
