[Toys] 34 Years Later These ‘Alien’ Toys Are Finally Coming Out!

Super 7 has just made the lines at the upcoming SDCC that much longer, but it’s for a good reason! These Alien toys are awesome and they have a rich, compelling history!

Per the official site, “In 1979, prototypes for 3 ¾” action figures for the ALIEN film were developed but never manufactured. Through our network of industry and collector contacts, Super7 has unearthed reference material and original 34-year-old prototypes and will now make these “lost toys” a reality.

Under authorization from 20th Century Fox, Super7 will produce the full series of ALIEN toys as part of our ReAction Figure Series (Retro-Action). Each is stylized exactly as items from the “golden age” of action figures with approximately five points of articulation, accessories, and period-authentic blister card packaging.

They’ll be available in August/September but will start pre-orders in July at Comic-Con! Head inside to check ‘em out! READ MORE

[San Diego Comic-Con '12] Raw Studios Panel Recap Along With Absolutely Incredible ‘Punisher’ Short!

JTMosh writes in with the following report out of the San Diego Comic-Con this past weekend.

Does anybody have a laptop?” That’s the way Thomas Jane started off his RAW Studios panel at this year’s San Diego Comic-Con. It seems there was some sort of technical difficulty with their initial set-up.

And as he’s known to do, Jane just rolled with it.

After securing a computer from one of the attendees, and getting all that set up, the panel was getting off to a late start. As people were still trickling in, Jane seemed to decide, “To hell with it; let’s just do this.” And the panel started. There was none of the usual formality associated with a Comic-Con panel on display here. There was no barrier between the panelists and the audience. Instead of sitting up on a stage talking into microphones, as is the Comic-Con standard, these panelists stood on the floor talking with their fans. It was an incredibly refreshing thing to see. It felt much less like celebrities talking at a crowd and more like a group of like-minded people talking about the stuff they love.

On hand were the man himself, Tom Jane; legendary comic artist Tim Bradstreet; longtime 2000 A.D., Judge Dredd and Bad Planet Issues 7-8 artist Greg Staples; artist on Bad Planet Issues 1-6 and lead concept artist at High Noon Studios Jim Daily; writer of the upcoming A Magnificent Death from a Shattered Hand Jose Prendes; production designer on Return of the Living Dead and artist on many films including Conan the Barbarian, First Blood, and Pan’s Labyrinth William Stout; and as a surprise for the end of the panel, Hellboy himself, Ron Perlman.

Here are some of the more juicy details! READ MORE

[San Diego Comic-Con '12] A Brand New Still From ‘Silent Hill: Revelation 3D’!

We’re excited to be the first website to share with you a brand new image out of the San Diego Comic-Con for Open Road Films’ Silent Hill: Revelation 3D, the highly anticipated sequel to 2006′s film Silent Hill. The new look puts star Adelaide Clemens in the hot seat. We’ve added the still below alongside the “Nurse Attack” clip if you missed it…

Silent Hill: Revelation 3D will be released wide October 26, 2012 in time for Halloween.

Directed by Michael J. Bassett (Solomon Kane, Deathwatch), original cast members Sean Bean (HBO’s Game Of Thrones, Lord Of The Rings), Deborah Kara Unger (The Game, 88 minutes, The Samaritan) and Radha Mitchell (Man On Fire, The Crazies, upcoming The Frozen Ground) return in Silent Hill: Revelation 3D, starring along with rising stars Adelaide Clemens (X-Men Origins, upcoming The Great Gatsby, No One Lives) and Kit Harington (HBO’s Game Of Thrones) as well as Carrie-Anne Moss (The Matrix, Disturbia, NBC’s Chuck) and Malcolm McDowell (A Clockwork Orange, The Artist).

In Silent Hill: Revelation 3D, Heather Mason (Clemens) and her father (Bean) have been on the run, always one step ahead of dangerous forces that she doesn’t fully understand. On the eve of her 18th birthday, plagued by horrific nightmares and the disappearance of her father, Heather discovers she’s not who she thinks she is. The revelation leads her deeper into a demonic world that threatens to trap her forever. READ MORE

[San Diego Comic-Con '12 News Bites] ‘Hellboy 3′ Chatter, The Rock For ‘Lobo’ & “Mockingbird Lane” Cast Photo!

I’m actually a bit surprised this is our first News Bites of the San Diego Comic-Con, considering there’s more news breaks than we can possibly handle (nothing like having our server crash multiple times. Sorry ’bout that!)

Anyways, here’s a few short news breaks beginning with the news confirming Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson‘s potential casting in Warner Bros. Lobo adaptation: “Rumors of me possibly playing LOBO are true. Joel Silver and Brad Peyton working on it now. That could be fun,” revealed The Rock via his official Twitter account. This would be a nice move away from playing Disney character like The Tooth Fairy. Bray Peyton is directing. Lobo is an alien that works as an interstellar mercenary and bounty hunter from DC Comics. His comics are known to be R-rated and bloody.

Via TVLine the below image displays the cast of NBC’s Mockingbird Lane (Bryan Fuller‘s re-imagining of “The Munsters”) shared with Comic-Con attendees, along with the following recap: “A sizzle reel of footage from the “Mockingbird Lane” pilot, which finished shooting three days before the panel, revealed that the series has the auteur’s stamp all over it. Darkly humorous and visually distinctive, the sneak peek featured a scene of a wolfed-out Eddie terrorizing his Boy Scout friends on a camping trip, clever nods to the original series and Eddie Izzard as Grandpa chomping into a lion. Special effects to be added will also allow Lily’s outfit to form out of spiders and for Grandpa to manifest out of rats.” He adds, “The family pet, Spot, will be part of the show, as will the creation of the “Dragula.”

Lastly, Pacific Rim director Guillermo del Toro once again talks about Hellboy 3 with EW: “I can say publicly that now we are together in trying [to do Hellboy 3].” Star Ron Perlman adds, “The [first] two movies were really set up to have this unbelievable resolve…Everything that was done in both movies was leading up to this destiny, written in stone, of what Hellboy has been summoned to Earth to do. To not do it, particularly in light of the scope that Guillermo is thinking of for the resolve, would be in my mind a little bit of a shame.

As of now nothing is official, but Del Toro says, “We’re going to make an effort to do it. I hope it happens.READ MORE

More Fatalities: A Second Season Of ‘Mortal Kombat: Legacy’ Greenlit!

While we sit and wonder if Warner Bros. is just taking forever, or if the lawsuit is holding up any progression on the long-gestured remake, writer/director Kevin Tancharoen revealed at the San Diego Comic-Con that a second season of the Mortal Kombat: Legacy webseries is officially on the way.

I can break the silence and tell you guys what it’s going to be about. It’s going to be about the actual Mortal Kombat tournament this time,” says Tancharoen.

Season One of the 9-episode series from Tancharoen (“Mortal Kombat: Rebirth”) expands the mythos of the popular Mortal Kombat video game franchise and currently has garnered millions of hits on YouTube.

“Mortal Kombat: Legacy” takes place before the events of the original game and tells the background stories of several characters from the franchise, culminating in their reasons for participating in the upcoming tenth Mortal Kombat tournament, on which the first game was based. The episodes in the anthology are non-linear with minimal continuity, and each devoted to the story of a specific character or characters.-Wiki

[San Diego Comic-Con '12] Kevin Williamson Speaks On Pilot Presentation of “The Following”

One of our Comic-Con 2012 highlights was the opportunity to chat with the cast and creators of Fox’s upcoming series “The Following”. Even though only the pilot has been filmed so far, they all provided us with some thoughtful insights into the show.

First we spoke with creator/executive producer Kevin Williamson, who has been working on the project in one form or another for over 16 years. While he wants “The Following” to be gripping and leave audiences breathless, it has a love story at the root of it.

THE FBI estimates there are currently over 300 active serial killers in the United States. What would happen if these killers had a way of communicating and connecting with each other? What if they were able to work together and form alliances across the country? What if one brilliant psychotic serial killer was able to bring them all together and activate a following?

[San Diego Comic-Con '12] Guillermo Del Toro Has Yet To See ‘Prometheus Because It’s So Similar To ‘At the Mountains of Madness’

In an interview with Empire, Pacific Rim director Guillermo del Toro proclaims his string intentions to get the H.P. Lovecraft adaptation of At the Mountains of Madness made, while also dropping a shocking little bit of news.

I think we may still make it. When I’m brave enough to go and see Prometheus, I’ll know,” Del Toro revealed to the mag. “But for now, I don’t know. We are all nothing but human beings. I go to the theatre, I buy my ticket for Prometheus and I go and see something else, because I’m afraid. I’m not a mental entity, I am also emotional, because the ideas are similar, from what I’ve heard and I’ll see it next week, I promise!

It’s kind of shocking to hear del Toro explain that he’s yet to see Prometheus, but for good reason. He should relish in the fact that many think Ridley Scott dropped the ball with his interpretation. Maybe del Toro can deliver something a bit more coherent?

Universal Pictures’ would-be H.P. Lovecraft adaptation “tells the story of geologist William Dyer, a professor from Miskatonic University. He writes to disclose hitherto unknown and closely kept secrets in the hope that he can deter a planned and much publicized scientific expedition to Antarctica. On a previous expedition there, a party of scholars from Miskatonic University, led by Dyer, discovered fantastic and horrific ruins (including strange fossils of unheard-of creatures and carved stones tens of millions of years old) and a dangerous secret of the City of the Old Ones that lay beyond a range of mountains taller than the Himalayas.READ MORE

[San Diego Comic-Con '12] First ‘Godzilla’ Poster, Teaser Trailer Roars Through Hall H!

We’ve just now landed the first official teaser poster for Warner Bros. Pictures and Legendary’s new Godzilla movie that just completed a panel in Hall H of the San Diego Comic-Con. Watch this spot for a teaser trailer description!

A teaser trailer also premiered to a surprised and stunned crowd. Our man on the beat says that it went over better than the footage for Guillermo del Toro’s Pacific Rim, about giant robots vs monsters. Here’s a description of the footage shown: “A city decimated. Completely destroyed. The camera pans by the wreckage of a train and the distant voice of J. Robert Oppenheimer (father of the atomic bomb) is heard reading from the Bhagavad Gita – “Now, I am become death”. Dust everywhere. Cars crushed. Holes in sky scrapers.

We then see a giant centipede like creature with many arms and legs smoldering. (You know what that means? Monster battles!) The city appears dead as a door nail. Then blackness. THE ROAR. As in THE roar. Huge Bass drop. Raymond Burr finishes his famous speech. Dust…then an arm… a hand… with claws. Pan up… holy shit… the fins. The head. Godzilla. As we know him. The real f-cking Godzilla. He roars again.

Fade to GODZILLA! With Red Japanese title behind it!

Making his first appearance in 1954 (Gojira) Godzilla is a giant monster that lives in the sea that comes from the ocean to feed on mankind.

[San Diego Comic-Con '12] ‘Pacific Rim’ Footage Description

Today we are ending the apocalypse” -Idris Elba in Pacific Rim.

Before the Godzilla trailer stomped Comic-Con attendees, Hall H was treated to the first ever footage from Guillermo del Toro’s giant monster movie, one that pits giant robots against the alien creatures. Here’s the footage description along with some factoids from the panel.

The trailer opened with a couple of older fellows with a metal detector walking in the snow. Said detector starts going crazy and they look up and there is a giant robot missing an arm. The words “To fight monsters/ We made monsters” flash across the screen.

All the while showing HUGE Kaiju like monsters destroying bridges, being shot at by jets, and then a giant robot (piloted by two pilots brain linked to each other controlling either the left or right hemisphere of the body). Robots punch monsters. Straight up wrestling moves. Think a live fight between Jet Jaguar and Chtulhu.

Q&A factoids:

  • There will be rocket punches. F-cking rocket punches.
  • There will be 9 different kaiju monsters, each with unique abilities.
  • Ron Perlman and Charlie Day are playing scientist type characters.
  • The CGI and sound is incredible. Cinematography is colorful and insane!
  • No motion capture. Del Toro made sure all the robots and monsters were key framed.

    The stars of “666″ – Rachael Taylor as Jane Van Veen, Dave Annable as Henry Martin, Vanessa Williams as Olivia Doran, and Terry O’Quinn as Gavin Doran – were at a bit of a disadvantage during our interview since up to this point they’ve only shot the pilot and haven’t even seen the script for the next episode so we didn’t get a lot of information about the show from them; but writer/executive producer David Wilcox and executive producer Matthew Miller did shed a bit more light on things… READ MORE
