Sexy And Retro Barbarella Fan Art
I really love this Barbarella fan art from artist Mel Milton. It is the perfect way to pay homage to the classic 1968 film starring Jane Fonda. If you haven’t seen it, get on that right away.
Barbarella was an awesome retro sci-fi pulp masterpiece and Jane Fonda did an amazing job. It’s just plain fun. It’s not for everybody, but everybody should see it at least once. Milton really captured her spirit in this piece.

Star Wars Biggs Darklighter Documentary
If you know anything about Star wars at all, you know that Biggs Darklighter was Luke Skywalker’s best friend in the first Star Wars movie. Less serious fans may not know this however, because most of his scenes were cut from the final version of the film.
Whether you are familiar with the character or not, in this installment of Jamie Benning’s Filmumentaries, Garrick Hagon, who played Biggs, talks about his experience with Star Wars. It’s fascinating stuff. Get to know Biggs a little better.

Terminator Genisys: Resetting the Future
Fans of Terminator Genisys will not want to miss this deluxe book that follows the creative journey of the filmmakers behind the new adventure movie. Terminator Genisys: Resetting the Future lets you see how they went about turning the Terminator universe upside down while still paying homage to James Cameron’s original films.
Inside you’ll find stunning concept art and photography from the set. It tells the complete story of the making of the film. There are also interviews with key members of the cast and crew. This will definitely be a fun read.
Funko Fifth Element Action Figures
These Funko Fifth Element action figures are fun. This is what the figures would have looked like had they been released back in the 1980s by Kenner. They didn’t exist back then, but at least we can own them now.
You can choose from Leeloo in straps, Korben Dallas, the Diva, Ruby Rhod, Leelo out of straps, a Mangalore and Zorg. You have to get the whole set since these really are great displayed together. They are just $9.99 each.
Stop-Motion Recreation of Baby Groot’s Dance
Guardians of the Galaxy is a classic in every sense of the word as far as I’m concerned. James Gunn’s movie is just plain fun and one of the funnest scenes was at the very end when Baby Groot dances to The Jackson 5’s “I Want You Back.”
Now we can relive the dance in stop-motion form. This video took more than 1,000 photos to create. The creators used a Hot Toys 1/4 scale Groot and Marvel Legends 6″ Drax. This should put a smile on your face. Check it out below.
Star Wars: The Force Awakens Live Motion Capture
Slashgear has a very interesting article about how Star Wars: The Force Awakens is being made. It’s pretty similar to how video games are made. The focus may be on practical effects this time around, but there is a lot more going on than meets the eye. It’s pretty impressive stuff.
There’s a lot there for fans of the Battlefront game as well, so make sure you read the whole thing. It is really eye-opening. If you don’t have the time, just check out this video below.
Star Wars: The Force Awakens BB-8 Droid Demo
Everyone thought that the BB-8 droid seen in the Star Wars: The Force Awakens trailer was CGI, but as it turns out, it is not CGI at all. They proved it during Star Wars Celebration with this live demo. I don’t think anyone saw this coming.
The BB-8 effects are very practical. I still think it looks a bit too “pixar”, but I have to admit, this little droid is growing on me. The real question is, how on Earth did they pull it off? I guess we will find out soon.
Star Wars: The Force Awakens Official Teaser #2
Lucasfilm and J.J. Abrams are taking us back to a galaxy far, far away. And man am I stoked! This is a stunning trailer and it was well worth the wait. I am so relived that JJ Abrams did not try to change it like he did with Star Trek. Everything seems prefect. Might we actually get the perfect Star Wars movie? It sure looks like it.
Concept Art For Angel In X-Men: Apocalypse
Ben Hardy has officially been cast as Angel in X-Men: Apocalypse. We also have some new concept art of the character. These two pieces of concept art show the back of the character with wings and without wings.
What do you think? I think they look pretty neat. Deadly, yet graceful. Needs more purple though. I think we can expect some good things from this character.
