Movies - Go Speed Racer Go!!!!

I'm sure you've seen it. But I think it's gonna be fun.

MOVIES - BATMAN


Well the WB has started their marketing campaign for "Batman the Dark Knight". They've been doing some internet viral marketing for months, but this week they turned it up a notch. These 3 posters will be in theaters this week and there will be a 6 minute preview in front of the IMAX screening of I Am Legend along with the 1st trailer for the film.



The trailer hits the web on Monday, but someone posted a pirated copy of it on YouTube today. I would embed it here, but I'm sure it'll get pulled. You can check out the Ain't it cool link HERE.

TOYS - Iron Man the movie figures.


Looks like Hasbro has released some pics of their 1st wave of Iron Man the movie figures. The big news is that these are 6 inch. They tried producing a 5 inch wave for the Spider-man 3 movie line, and failed miserably.


Although from the looks of it they have learned from their mistakes and really raised the bar on these Iron Man the movie figures.

I'll have to see them in person to give them a final rating but for now they look like a

3 of 4 Ass Monkey


TOYS - Wave 03 of DC Superheroes from Mattel.


Some pics just surfaced of Mattel's Wave 03 of DC Superheroes. I thought I'd share. These are scans from the new issue of Toyfare.

This line looks to be fantastic. I only have 2 problems.

1 - I have bought most of these figures from DC Direct. So do I really need to buy them again, cause they might look at little cooler and have better articulation? I think everyone knows the answer to that one.

2 - Mattel is producing these. They have a track recored of poor distribution that will kill most of their lines buy the 3rd wave. They have publicly stated that they are trying to re-think their distribution, in order to not have these issues in the future. So I guess well see.

TV - Knight Rider lives again.


Well it was only an matter of time. Knight Rider will be returning to the small screen with David Hasselhoff in tow. NBC has just commissioned a tv movie that could potentially turn into a new series. I guess the series revolves around Michael Knight's son and the next generation of KITT. KITT 2.0 is also now a Ford Mustang. This show could be really cool, or it could be complete crap. I'm betting it will be crap, but you never know. I guess we'll have to wait till next season to know for sure.
