Relativity Media has released the first teaser trailer for its upcoming Sci-Fi flick Skyline. Have you ever wondered what it would look like if aliens abducted us on a large scale? Try not to freak out.
Skyline will be in theaters November 12, 2010.
Have you been wondering how Chris McVeigh managed to pull off the above photo? He didn’t use Photoshop.

So, you’re so excited about the Scott Pilgrim Vs. The World movie that you spent yesterday downloading both the soundtrack and score (My recommendation: Make sure you grab the Sex Bob-Omb tracks, at least), and playing the videogame, but you haven’t actually read Bryan Lee O’Malley’s original graphic novels yet? Fear not, late adopter; …

Some posts at Tuned In I do to serve a wide audience. Some I do to serve niche fan groups. And some I do simply so that the Tuned In Jrs. will have a reason to read their Dad’s blog. This is one of them: season 3 of Star Wars: The Clone Wars returns to Cartoon Network September 17.
As I wrote last year, as bad as …
Now, this is an Avengers promo. Granted, the film it’s hyping doesn’t even exist yet but it’s still better than the calorie-free logo reveal that leaked last week.

New comics drop tomorrow. Tomorrow, man. I hope you reviewed yesterday’s list of new comics. Here are five comics that I really want to be good reads. I want to believe in them and what they stand for. Time for a saving throw against mediocrity. As always come on back later in the week for the Comic Book Club and
The Smoking Gun got its hands on some hilarious bits of transcript from the trial of David Kernell, the 22 year-old hacker who broke into Sarah Palin’s email in 2008, but it’s not Kernell that made us giggle. 4Chan creator Christopher ‘Moot’ Poole was called to testify during the trial, and much to our delight, much of his time on the …
DC Comics announced yesterday that the single-named artist Jock–best known for drawing The Losers–would be joining writer Scott Snyder as the creative team on Detective Comics as of November. We spoke briefly with Snyder at Comic-Con (before the Jock announcement had been made public) about what will be coming up for Batman in …
One word ruined Star Wars for me, and probably for a generation of fans, too. That word wasn’t Jar Jar or Watto. It wasn’t a character.
It was “midi-chlorians.”
With that one word, the mechanisms of the Force became less spiritual and more scientific. Major bummer. The draw of the concept of the Force in the Original Trilogy is …
So, now we’ve seen what the first crossover between Syfy shows that aren’t called Stargate looks like, and it has to be said, I kind of liked it. Maybe it’s because I’m a comic fan and therefore shared universes and crossovers and cameos and everything like that is like catnip to me, but watching characters from Eureka and Warehouse 13 …
Grant Morrison has been talking about what to expect from Batman, Inc., his new fall-launching series that takes place after The Return On Bruce Wayne and sees the Dark Knight rebrand himself and his community. In an interview with the LA Times’ Hero Complex blog, he expressed his view of a more cultured, less screwed-up Bruce Wayne than …
