Spider-Man is back! Whether the last few Spider-Man movies were to your liking or not, Sony Pictures is again rebooting the Spider-Man series with the Amazing Spider-Man. The movie’s release is just behind the corner, which means we get to see more and more footage of the upcoming blockbuster. The new trailer looks massive and I am definitely looking forward to Spidey’s new adventures. Awesome!
The Dark Knight Rises – Teaser Trailer 2

The wait is over and we finally have another look at the upcoming Batman: The Dark Knight Rises movie. The second teaser trailer not only shows that Batman has his hands full with Bane and pretty much entire Arkham on the loose but also first view of the Catwoman. The movie looks as dope as one might expect and I can’t wait to see the entire film. But hey, summer’s only few months away…
Avengers

Just had one of those, oh my god, oh my god moments when I realized the trailer for the upcoming Avengers movie hit the web. The trailer looks even better than the sneak preview at the end of Captain America (I know you all knew of the clip already). Seriously summer 2012 is starting to look even better than 2011 when it comes to comic book mega blockbusters. If you don’t believe me, just watch the trailer yourself. I promise you’ll feel like a kid again. Oh my god, oh my god…

Marvel Maniacs

Are you a Marvel Maniac? I know I am. Which is why most of Marvel related news catch my attention. Especially those mixed with fashion news. I’m sure the recent Stussy x Marvel collaboration is still in everyone’s fresh memory, and now FREAK’S STORE from Tokyo is teaming up with the legendary comic book house for a set of exclusive tees limited to 50 pieces each. The cool thing about the collaboration is that it also involves local creative talents such as Yasumasa Yonehara, Yasushi Fujimoto, Yoshikage Kajiwara, DJ MURO and DJ DARUMA. Basically established names in Japan’s creative scene. According to Hypebeast, the shirts come with, “three cans, one sheet of poster, and a comic book.” The price is 9,975 JPY and the shirts are available from FREAK’S STORE Shibuya only. Good look.
Ghost Rider – The Spirit Of Vengeance
by Taavi Kuisma on Aug.28, 2011, under Comics, Design and Artwork, Entertainment, Headlines
Being a die hard fan of Marvel comics and having been a fan since my young’n days, it’s very difficult to watch any comic book movie objectively. I remember reading Ghost Rider comic books just hoping to see a movie made of this character. Then, they made the movie. People didn’t like it but I was just happy to see the movie finally being made. Although critics and haters voiced out their opinion of the first edition of Ghost Rider, they are making a sequel. Yes, one of the darkest comic book characters is getting a movie sequel, which I hear is taking a step on the crazy side with the movie being even darker than the previous one.
The Amazing Spiderman – Trailer
by Taavi Kuisma on Jul.25, 2011, under Comics, Design and Artwork, Entertainment, Headlines
We’ve finally got some footage of the upcoming Amazing Spiderman film which serves as a reboot to the existing Spiderman movie franchise. The trailer leaked online few days back and has gotten people talking. Peter Parker seems to be slightly different type of nerd this time around and Spiderman has a new outfit of course. From what I understand they showed some additional footage of the movie at the Comic Con featuring the Lizard, but I have yet to see this material. Let’s see when this surfaces online (if it hasn’t already) but at least we have the trailer to watch. It doesn’t look all too bad to me, will probably look awesome in 3D.
Captain America – Trailer 2
by Taavi Kuisma on Jun.24, 2011, under Comics, Design and Artwork, Entertainment, Headlines
Can’t believe it’s almost July. What’s so special about July? The release of Captain America: The First Avenger of course. Just to add to the already massive hype around the movie is the latest trailer that shows more footage from the upcoming blockbuster. It’s crazy to even think that it’s been like 4 years since we were speculating on the Captain America the movie and how it should pen. I mean damn, the new trailer gives a pretty good indication of how the movie will be like and I have to say I like it. So make sure to catch the movie which premieres in less than a month.
Bane
by Taavi Kuisma on May.20, 2011, under Entertainment, Headlines, Social Media & Advertising
I have to say the latest Batman movies are leading the way in terms of viral marketing (for movies). I’m pretty sure those into movies, comics or both still remember the I believe in Harvey Dent campaign for the Dark Knight and the marketing team behind the latest Batman Adventure “The Dark Knight Rises” is following in the steps of the previous movie. Although the marketing has only kicked off, they certainly kicked off in style. Not only did they cleverly tie in social media channels like Twitter and Facebook, but they also revealed one of the most talked of characters on their site thedarkknightrises.com. This character being Bane.
The Adventures of Tintin
by Taavi Kuisma on May.19, 2011, under Comics, Design and Artwork, Entertainment, Headlines
I remember reading all the Tintin comics by HergĂ© and watching the cartoons as a kid. That said I am happy to see “Hollywood” resurrecting this cool character and the entire world of Tintin. Movie masterminds Steven Spielberg and Peter Jackson are behind the upcoming 3D/CGI movie featuring the beloved character solving the “Secret of the Unicorn.” Unicorn which in this context is referring to a ship. The movie apparently mixes few different story lines of Tintin so it’ll be interesting to see how it cooks up. The movie features Daniel Craig, Simon Pegg, Jamie Bell and Andy Serkis to name just few talents. The trailer looks cool and I can’t wait to see the flick.
Captain America: The First Avenger – Official Trailer
by Taavi Kuisma on Mar.24, 2011, under Entertainment, Headlines
Marvel recently released the official trailer for the Captain America: The First Avenger. We saw the first spot during Super Bowl halftime, now we have the official trailer for the movie. The film looks awesome, I mean as a fan of the comics I could not find anything to complain about the trailer. I seriously can’t wait for the film. So what do you think about the movie version of Steve Rogers?
