If Superman Were In ‘Gravity

If Superman Were In ‘Gravity

Space may be a terrifying place for us humans. We have to worry about things like tempurature, air — the basics that keep us alive here on earth that we normally take for granted. But for a certain blue clad Kryptonian, space offers no such risks.

This is an alternate cut of sorts for what Gravity could have been like if the man of steel had been involved.

I think the best part is the sort of twisted explanation for how the situation occurred in the first place. I nearly died laughing.

Roku CEO Slams Apple TV as Accessory for iPad

Roku CEO Slams Apple TV as Accessory for iPad
Richard Padilla — MacRumors

Speaking at the inaugural Code/Media event held by technology website Re/code (via CNET), Roku CEO and founder Anthony Wood called the Apple TV “a money loser” for Apple, likening the product to an accessory for the iPad and questioning why Apple would want to sell more units of the device. Wood’s remarks come as Apple is said to be preparing a new version of the Apple TV that will integrate with Comcast’s network to enable a streaming TV service for users.

“Apple TV is essentially an accessory for the iPad. They lose money, which is unusual for Apple,” he said Thursday, speaking at the…

Hugh Jackman Mixing Up His Roles, Sings ‘Wolverine The Musical’

Hugh Jackman Mixing Up His Roles, Sings ‘Wolverine The Musical’

Here’s a bit of hilarity for you today. Hugh Jackman’s roles are wide ranging and various, but today we’re going to throw two of them in a bottle and shake it up to see what comes out. And this is the result with lines like, “Who am I? Am I a superhero with some claws? Or just an actor searching for applause?”

It’s pretty hillarious.

They’re Nobodies

This episode may be recorded on April Fools’ Day, but this is no joke! TrailerByte is back this week as Chad and TJ make their way through a long list of very fun and exciting trailers. Lots of good discussion on the upcoming films — it’s all very exciting! Some of those trailers and upcoming films include ‘Captain America: The Winter Soldier’, ‘X-Men: Days of Future Past’, ‘Transcendence’, ‘Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles’, ‘Jupiter Ascending’, ‘Edge of Tomorrow’, ‘Peanuts’, and more! And don’t miss our review of ‘Divergent’. The critics are being quite harsh on the film, is it really that bad? Emphatically not. It’s not bad at all.

‘Captain America: The Winter Soldier’ Teaser — Cap Trusts Black Widow Now

‘Captain America: The Winter Soldier’ Teaser — Cap Trusts Black Widow Now

There’s obviously something going on between our favorite captain and the Black Widow. Are they together now or something? We’ll find out this weekend. But one thing is for sure, they’re definitely doing the teamwork thing on the world-saving stuff.

Watch to find out more! I can’t wait to see the film. I’m hearing a lot of good things about it.

‘X-Men: Days of Future Past’ TV Spot — Destined to Destroy Each Other?

‘X-Men: Days of Future Past’ TV Spot — Destined to Destroy Each Other?

“Are we destined to destroy each other? Or can we change who we are?” That is the question Professor Xavier poses for us in the latest TV spot for X-Men: Days of Future Past. It’s an intriguing question when you think about it from a geek’s point of view. We haven’t done time travel in the X-Men movie universe yet. What will their take be on it. How does time travel work. Can things be changed, are there multiple timelines, multiple dimensions… oh, that wasn’t the first question on your mind? Well, never mind then.

Watch the trailer anyway and get psyched up for the premiere of X-Men: Days…

Divergent — Review

3.5 of 5 stars
Divergent

This is not exactly the film that the trailers tried to sell. And it’s definitely not the film many critics would have you believe either. They’ve been a little bit rough on this film. Yes, at times it felt like it was sticking a bit too much to the “young adult” formula, but I did find it to be pretty good.

Getting back to the trailers though, what was up with that? I could hazard a guess that they were really trying to sell it hard as a YA romance thing and put as much of that as they could in the trailers because what’s in the trailers is nearly all there is. Then there was the way that…

‘Transcendence’ Featurette

‘Transcendence’ Featurette

This may be a typical featurette without a whole lot of new or interesting information, but I’m intrigued with the film all the same and found it worth watching.

The film is directed by Wally Pfister and, for those who don’t know, he was Christopher Nolan’s cinematographer on The Dark Knight trilogy. That alone should interest you in my opinion. But if that alone doesn’t do it, watch the featurette and tell me you are not intrigued.

Will Samuel L. Jackson Return for ‘Incredibles 2’?

Will Samuel L. Jackson Return for ‘Incredibles 2’?
Garth Franklin — Dark Horizons

“Every time I run into Brad, he always tells me Frozone is part of what’s going on, so I have to believe that. I guess they could be the Incredibles without Frozone, but I think Frozone would be a wonderful addition to what’s already there.”

“Where’s my super suit?”

I sure hope he’s in it. His role may have been small in The Incredibles but I loved Frozone. And Samuel L. Jackson is always a great addition to almost any film.
