Still around..

This past week or so has been crazy. And I know I've been lacking in updates, but when so man cons going on - that many companies feel the need to debue games at, run trailers at and sneak out information its been a lot to digest and consum. So in some attempt to return this information to you my brain has gone to mush.

E3, SDCC and Blizzcon with in the last month (or coming up) and those are just the BIG events. That doesn't include all the smaller events were side line stuff is sneaked out. My brain is about to explode!

So here's the run down of what I got for you - that I can remember - I'll organize my thoughts and put them all together better.

The nightmare on elm street movie is in production as we speak, without Robert England *cry*, but fear not they are attempting to stay close to the core but reinvent the nightmare just a little different for the actor attempting to fill his shoes. Only time will tell if this is going to crash and burn or breath new life in to Elm Street.

Blizzard has once again announced a full length movie done based on Warcraft - not new news but they actually have a director attached this time around. Many people agree that they really need to just do this them selves with the help of a director. Lord knows they have the skill and technology to wow crowds, but rumors are they want to opt for a live action feature. That makes me sad. There are enough man made elves running about, give us some digital goodness dammnit!

Fox still has a brain - thanks to the fellow at TR for this tid bit that made my day - they worked out contracts with the ORIGINAL Futurama cast rather then replace them like they have been threatening to do these last weeks with casting notices for the key characters of the show. THANK GOD!

Moving on from that thought my heart was broken to hear that while Riddly Scott is returning to direct the new Alien movie - supposed to be a prequel - to the original but apparently its not all that it should be. Trying to go back to the original ship - assuming he means the one that is found empty in the first - and go in to how the aliens were originally made. Really?.. REALLY? I thought you covered that already? I mean didn't this get touched upon Ooooh some where in the second or thrid? How bout those piss poor excuses of movies AvP? Yeah. People make me sad.

I was uber excited about the Blood the Last Vampire movie - but from reports at Bloodydisgusting.com it fails to really do the series justice. I've not had the chance to see it for my self cause while it was released in the states - no theater within driving distance picked it up. So I must wait for the DVD to make a call about this. Most of the reports about the story I expected - slacking and not explaining much. But the original anime didn't explain much either. What worries me is the apparent abusive of CGI blood over realfake blood. Time will only show..

Tron trailer that they slipped us last year was true, rumors was floating it was something just to give people hope but no! It looks like we will be getting some Tron action in the coming months. Disney is evil - but hey aren't all movie companies now?

Iron Man 2 looks to be as good as the first, I am more eager though for Robert Downy Jr.'s role as Sherlock Homes. Supposed to be out with in the next months, I will actually leave you all with the trailer for it if you have not seen it yet. Its worth it. Nice to see how well he is returning to acting seriously and being seen seriously as an actor.
