The Art and Soul of Blade Runner 2049 Hardcover Art Book

The Art and Soul of Blade Runner 2049 Hardcover Art Book
The Art and Soul of Blade Runner 2049 Hardcover Art Book is a beautiful oversized book that includes concept art, storyboards, behind the scenes photography, and production stills with commentary from the cast and crew. It will help you to gain insight into old and new characters, new locations and environments, and the technology from the movie. This is going right on the coffee table so I can look at it often. The deluxe edition includes a fabric-covered slipcase and an 11 inch by 14 inch lithograph with glow-in-the-dark elements. Very nice.

At Last – The Three-Hour Extended Cut of Superman: The Movie Is Coming

At Last - The Three-Hour Extended Cut of Superman The Movie Is Coming
As many of you know, the original Richard Donner Superman movie received a bumper cut—nearly 40 minutes longer—when it aired on TV. And now this cut of the movie is finally being released on Blu-ray. I have been waiting for this one for decades. IMO Superman and Superman II are the greatest superhero movies ever made. And this cut of the original is the absolute best.

In February of 1982, ABC’s two-night broadcast of Superman: The Movie was a three-hour-long version of the movie that featured footage never seen before, giving us more Krypton, more Smallville, more everything. The full 188-minute version that aired over those two February nights has never been officially released, until now. Warner Bros.’ Archive Collection has plans for a brand-new remaster of the extended cut as part of a two film collection that will also include Donner’s definitive director’s cut of the film from 2000. (I’m not a fan of that one, but I’ll gladly buy in to get this extended version.) Aside from that, it will include new special features, including screen tests and documentaries looking at the creation of the movie. It is coming later this year. I can’t wait.

New Trailer for The Osiris Child

New Trailer for The Osiris Child
This new trailer for the upcoming sci-fi action film, The Osiris Child: Science Fiction Volume One looks pretty cool. I have no idea what that subtitle is all about, maybe they are planning some sort of anthology. Regardless, the movie looks pretty entertaining. It looks like well done low budget sci-fi, which is not easy to pull off. This one is definitely on my radar now. Check out the trailer and see what you think.

Set in the future in a time of interplanetary colonisation, Sy (Lutz), a mysterious drifter, meets Kane (MacPherson), a lieutenant working for an off-world military contractor, EXOR. The unlikely pair must work together to rescue Kane’s young daughter (Croft) and reach safety amid an impending global crisis which was brought on by EXOR itself. Teaming up with a pair of renegades (Ford and Lucas), Kane and Sy clash with EXOR in an attempt to escape while battling the savage creatures that roam the barren planet.

Alien Covenant Prologue – The Crossing

Alien Covenant Prologue - The Crossing
An Alien Covenant Prologue has hit and it gives us a glimpse at what happened to Dr. Elizabeth Shaw and the android David after the events of Prometheus after they head into space on an abandoned Engineer, searching for the home planet of the Engineers. This short is so good, I’m wondering if it will be in the movie. I’d love to see more of their journey.

Alien: Covenant hits in Theaters on May 19th.

Here it is! The trailer that we have all been waiting for. The first teaser trailer for Star Wars The Last Jedi. There is a lot to take in here, but… Could Luke really be talking about ending the Jedi order? Plus we have space battles (Looks more like a blockade), some pod-racer type ships skimming across a planet’s surface and kicking up red dust, Rey presumably training under Luke and more. Are you excited for this movie yet?

Star Wars: The Last Jedi is set to open on December 15, 2017.
