When it was revealed that Fox were taking legal action against Warner Bros over Zack Snyder's Watchmen I was pretty annoyed, and I haven't even read the graphic novel. So I can only image how pi**ed of the hardcore Watchmen fans were. Well now I don't have to imagine, because one particular fan is taking action: A 20-year-old orange county man, Wyatt Barlup, wants to mobilize California locals to help him picket at FOX headquarters. He's putting out a call to war and wants to lead an…

He has said a number of times that he would only do another film if he had a story to tell (which many believe he has). However, both him and writer David Goyer intended to make The Dark Knight a standalone film, so that there would be no loose ends should a third movie never come. Well, buried…

Quantum of Solace kicks off from where Casino Royal left off and we can expect a new trailer in September, which should pump…

Added extras on the upcoming Iron Man DVD will include lots of previz shots that Jon Favreau and his FX team put together so they could see how a scene would look before they eventually filmed it. Luckily for us, we don't have to wait until the DVD's release on September 30th, as Pixel Liberation Front, a visual FX studio that worked on the film, have posted a previs-to-finished-effect comparison of the Iron Man trailer. I am no good with split screens and lasted 10 seconds before my brain started to swell with all the concentration needed. However if you are…
