Director Doug Liman may have flirted with SF action movies before – I’m one of those who prefers to pretend that Jumper doesn’t really exist – but now that he’s been confirmed as the director of All You Need Is Kill, based on Hiroshi Sakurazaka’s 2004 novel, I’m hoping he’ll bring his full-on Bourne Identity kinetic energy to the …
Clearly, it’d take something pretty impressive to team Steven Spielberg, Fringe co-creators (and Star Trek and Transformers screenwriters) Roberto Orci and Alex Kurtzman and Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles showrunner Josh Friedman on a new project. And, apparently, Joe Hill’s IDW horror/fantasy comic Locke & Key is that …
I’m not sure that it’s a lawsuit that anyone has been waiting for, but you have to admit: There’s something kind of wonderful about seeing “Lucas Vs. Jedi Mind” on a legal docket.
The lawsuit in question is a $5 million trademark suit launched by Lucasfilm against a company calling itself Jedi Mind, Inc., which sells a wireless …
DC Comics has released a new promotional image for their Brightest Day event, one that links together already-released alternate covers with previously unseen material for a round-robin tease that cries out for decryption.

Now, the San Diego-based publisher has released a statement …
Here’s a worrying possibility: What if Paramount’s reboot of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle franchise is actually good? Deadline Hollywood is reporting that the studio is taking the idea very seriously, as they’re hoping to turn the pizza-loving martial-arts-loving mutated reptiles into “the next Transformers.” With Michael Bay …
While the hardcore Whedonettes get themselves all in a tizzy about the news that Dark Horse will be publishing new Angel comics beginning late 2011, suggesting an end to IDW Publishing’s control of the franchise, another part of Buffy comics editor Scott Allie’s text tease caught my eye: The mention of Dollhouse comics at some point in …
The Jedi! Those calm, peaceful warriors who keep the universe safe from danger – Well, apart from when they’re not being slaughtered by the Sith, of course – with their lightsabers, telepathic powers and repression of all emotions other than smugness (That is an emotion, right? I can’t keep them straight after Blackest Night explained …
James Cameron really is doing all he can to become the new George Lucas, isn’t he?
