    ” I am better.”

    “At what?”

    “Everything.”

    Benedict Cumberbatch was apparently talking to all the other movie trailers that were shown at the Super Bowl because this newest one for Star Trek Into Darkness is thirty seconds of goosebumpy, nerdy feels.

    Can I just say how awesome it is to get Chris Pine in the yellow Starfleet uniform, which we really only got a glimpse of it at the end of 2009’s Star Trek. It also looks as if the Enterprise has see better days as we see it plummeting to Earth.

    We are still taking bets on Cumberbatch’s role. Khan? Possibly. Gary Mitchell? Unlikely since the monthly comic series that bridges the two movies has already had a re-telling of that tale. Maybe he is playing a chryogenically frozen Sherlock that has been thawed out in the future and embraced his madness. The possibilities!

    Star Trek Into Darkness releases on May 17th……NOPE!!

    People that downloaded the official movie app were given the announcement first that Star Trek Into Darkness will now open on Wednesday, May 15th with showtimes beginning at 8PM.

  • Iron Man 3 Extended Super Bowl Trailer

    If you were like me then you spent a good part of last night’s Super Bowl waiting for the Iron Man 3 trailer. And also, if you were like me, then you were a little disappointed when it was a snippet of an airplane rescue.

    Fear not true believers!!

    The extended trailer (which the Super Bowl ad shared the link to) completely makes up for it. For all you ladies, you get thirty straight seconds of Robert Downey Jr. then we get to see more footage including Happy not looking so happy, Rhodey in full Iron Patriot armor and more Ben Kingsley as The Mandarin. I really don’t see why Disney didn’t foot the bill and put the full trailer up last night.

  • God Of War: Ascension ‘From Ashes’ Live Action Trailer

    So the guesses were correct the other day when Sony teased us with a short trailer showing a woman walking through a field. It is, in fact, Kratos’ wife as you can see by watching the full version below.

    Called “From Ashes”, the live action trailer shows Kratos holding his daughter. She soon begins to break apart and he has flashbacks of his family as a group of soldiers moves in towards him. It is certainly one of Sony’s most ambitious advertisements ever and the company will even be showing a shortened one minute version during the Super Bowl.

    God of War: Ascension releases on March 12th. Sony announced a new God of War Playstation 3 bundle with a red console that will release on the same day.
