Thor Cast To Be Revealed Soon!

Kenneth Branagh has been talking about the casting of the Norse God for his upcoming Thor movie to MTV studios and he had this to say… “We’re down to the final stages of it. The reason one has to be properly diplomatic, is simply that some talented peopled have been patient, kind, creative and really committed to working with us in this process.” He also added “My reluctance to say anything about it is simply out of respect for people who have been extremely respectful of us. That said, I think we are extremely close and I hope to announce a decision sooner rather than later.” Please, please be Sawyer! Tweet This Post

New Terminator Salvation Clip!

Terminator Salvation has an odd partnership with a more “corporate” machine, in the form of Pizza Hut, who have now posted a first look at “Skynet’s towering terror the Harvester” in action, with some McG-narrated footage. You can see it by clicking here and visiting the Pizza Hut funded site. Sam Worthington stars in the clip, putting up a fight against the giant Harvester from “harvesting” humans. Production designer Martin Lang explained:  “The Harvester is a big fellow, about 60 feet tall, whose job it is to scoop up humans and bring them back to Skynet, where their hair and skin will be used for new Terminators. I wanted them to be black and degraded…

Resident Evil for the iPhone!

Apparently, Capcom has released third-person action game Resident Evil: Degeneration for Apple’s iPhone and iPod Touch. This is the same as Resident Evil 4 and 5 in that it follows the same “over the shoulder” control system. The game is played by the touch sensitive d-pad which appears on the screen. Incase you were wondering about the narrative, it follows the CGI movie of the same name. It can be yours from the download price of £3.99 (thats around $6 for you guys in the States). I guess it’s quite a good idea to do this, but doesn’t everyone own a DSi or PSP these days? I just wonder about the feasibility of phone gaming,…

Red Faction: Guerrillas in the Mist

Important warning: the following wall of text will definitely contain hyperbole and strong subjective opinions. If you are of a suggestible nature, please continue reading. Before we get started, I want to ask all the 360 and PS3 owners to go to their respective Marketplaces and PSNs and set the Red Faction: Guerrilla demo downloading. This may be a lengthy essay about why I feel people should play this and be excited for the full game, but I feel the demo really does enough to sell itself; the real problem being encouraging people to try it first. Admittedly, I felt a lack of interest at yet another third-person shooter heading to the shelves, even after…

American Gladiators To Be Made Into Movie!

In news that should be filed under “They’re doing what now?”, popular TV show American Gladiators is to be turned into a feature film. Yep, the show which pits crazed “normal” people against professional, um, I want to say professional athletes? Anyway, whatever the hell they are, it’s a stupid show that’s somehow been around for years and now they’re making a movie out of it. Although I’m pretty sure it’s going to be pants, I’m still intrigued on what angle they will take with the property. Tweet This Post
