Concept Art From Steven Spielberg’s Robopocalypse

It’s been awhile since Steven Spielberg has made a sci-fi action film, but we are always game to watch what he throws our way. In 2013, he postponed work on his adaptation of Daniel H. Wilson’s best-selling novel Robopocalypse. But we can now have a look at what might have been. This is some intriguing stuff.

He was working on the film for several years. Chris Hemsworth, Anne Hathaway and Ben Whishaw were even cast. But t some point it was announced that the script needed a lot more work. Plus it was apparently “too expensive to produce.” Who knows if we will ever see it finished, but here are a few images by artist Patrick Janicke.

Whimsical Star Wars Spaceships And Vehicle Artwork

You’ve never seen the Star Wars ships and vehicles looking so cute. I know that I’ve never seen a pie-eyed Death Star before anyway. This set of 6 prints from Herosquares is going to look amazing on your walls. It shows your love of Star Wars without being too serious.

I think the AT-AT is my favorite because he looks so derpy. You get 6 original 8.5″ x 8.5″ glossy card stock prints signed by the artist. These are perfect for a kids room. You get Luke Skywalker’s X-Wing fighter, Darth Vader’s Tie Fighter, Boba Fett’s Slave-1, Han Solo’s Millenium Falcon, an AT-AT & The Death Star!

Doctor Who Tea Set

There’s nothing like having a good cup of tea while watching Doctor Who and with this cool Doctor Who Tea Set you can have an appropriate Timelord themed tea from brewing to sipping. This fun set is decorated with Police phone boxes, bow ties, an adipose and the sugar bowl even has the words “Hello Sweetie”. Why you cheeky little monkey. There are even some surprises under the lids.

You get the teapot, a teapot warmer, creamer and sugar bowl with a porcelain spoon, a tea cup strainer, and a dish to set the strainer on. This is a cute set for the Doctor Who themed kitchen.

This Presentation Reel Shows What John Carter Could Have Been

One thing we should all take away from Disney’s recent attempt at John Carter is that it is really hard to make the Edgar Rice Burroughs’ Barsoom novels on film. In 2012, Andrew Stanton’s adaptation bombed at the box office. Now, a Presentation Reel of another adaptation has surfaced, and we get to see what might have been.

This reel was put together by director Kerry Conran and it shows off some amazing visuals from concept art that was created for the adaptation. There is also some action and fight scenes. There are many similarities, but it has more of a pulp feel for sure. It sure looks like a better and more sweeping adaptation. Sadly, we will likely never see it fully realized on screen, which is a real shame.

Star Wars Ships Crash In Major Cities

Graphic designer Nicolas Amiard brings fantasy and reality crashing together, quite literally, using modern cityscapes and the Star Wars vehicles. These digitally-enhanced images imagine that the Star Wars ships have crash landed in the middle of highly populated cities.

There’s the star destroyer in Paris, the millennium falcon in lower Manhattan, a TIE Fighter in London and more. What goes up must come down, so I’m glad these ships are in another galaxy.

Superheroes As Manatees

Artist Joel Harris imagined what some of our favorite superheroes would look like if they were manatees. Spoiler alert: They are all pretty fat and look very much the same out of their costumes.

Check out Captain Amanatee, Supermanatee, Batmanatee, Spider-Manatee, Green Lantern Manatee and many more. Sure they are bound to be slow and they will always stop to get a fish treat, but you don’t want to mess with these chubby heroes. Check out more on Joel’s Deviantart page. Fun stuff.

Female Superhero Costumes With Practical Redesigns

Female superhero costumes are anything but practical, so it’s no wonder that artist Lord Ingvard wondered what it would be like if female superhero character designs actually were more practical and functional. The artist did redesigns for several characters from the DC and Marvel universe.

Here we have Wonder Woman, Elektra, Supergirl, Black Canary, Ms. Marvel, Vampirella, Red Sonja, Power Girl, and Zatanna. There are no revealing designs here. No cleavage threatening to burst out, testing the strength of these costumes. Just practical clothing to get the job done.
