Wow! Very cool. I’m so glad that Rick Baker and the studio decided to go with a traditional looking werewolf for the 2009 remake of the Universal Classic, The Wolfman
Very traditional looking, but much more threatening looking when compared to the tame looking version from the 1941 original (above). The only redesign that kept the more human appearance that looked interesting since then was the Wolfman from The Monster Squad
The Hasbro Toy shop now has a Cloverfied monster available for preorder (shipping in October). There’s no image, but the description sounds great.
I don’t know that I would call the Cloverfield collector’s edition packaging a “feature” but maybe it will be amazing.
I don’t think the $99 price tag is amazing. That will probably scare anyone but the most die-hard fan away.
Cloverfield is out and was a great success over the weekend. Making almost $50 million, which is a record for a MLK weekend.
With the DVD of the movie months away, many are left wondering what the monster looks like. Unlike Godzilla, or other creature features, the monster has not been revealed in the trailer.
However, a nice article on /film contain several “fan-art” interpretations of the creature. Check all of them out and see which is the best.
Found that image over at ENewsInternational the other day and I thought that it looked awful familiar. I dug out my The Incredible Hulk TV Series DVDs
Kudos go out to Occasional Superheroine for beating me to the punch on posting the relation to the old TV show. I guess they’re really playing the movie as an homage to the TV show, especially since they’re including the “Walking Man” theme. Now, if they’d only include the Disco Version of the Hulk Walking Man theme, there would be no reason not to see the movie.
When you hear about superhero films from other countries, it usually conjures up images of low budget, badly acted parodies of the superhero films that so many of us love.
That was my initial thought when I heard about Supermanyi Eodeon Sanayi or (A Man Who Was Superman) over on Geeks of Doom. Way more than a superhero flick, “A Man Who Was Superman” sounds like an intelligent take on the superhero genre, one that resembles nothing I’ve ever seen or read before.
Here’s a part of the description:
While filming, her camera is stolen camera by a thief. The camera is quickly retrieved by a man in a Hawaiian shirt (played by actor Jeong-min Hwang) who claims to be Superman. He explains to Soo-jung that he has been rendered powerless by a villain who placed shards of Kryptonite in his head, but still does good deeds like rescuing lost dogs, persuading a man not to wander about naked in public — and sometimes regains enough power to stand on his head and push the Earth away from a collision course with the Sun.
Definitely one to look for later in 2008, when it makes its way to DVD.
