The third trailer in the build up to the July 20th release of The Dark Knight Rises, the movie that will conclude the trilogy.
Much like the last new Total Recall trailer, with some extra footage. My only regret about this version of the Philip K. Dick classic is they are skipping Mars. Probably because we abandoned our space program and they didn’t want to show China colonizing the planet with us left out.
There is no reason to post this except it is amazing to watch. This footage was all taken with a 1080P camera from the ISS, or International Space Station. I so want to go, but for now videos like this will have to do.
This Prometheus featurette is a bit more than a trailer, a bit less than a full 10 minute segment on a TV show somewhere. I am definitely ready to see how the Aliens universe started!
If you haven’t stopped by recently, the Planetary Society website has undergone a facelift and added all sorts of content, including a report about Planets around Alpha Centauri. They don’t have an answer yet as to whether our nearest stellar neighbor has anyplace we might land on, but the report does go into details of the technology being utilized for the search that I found very interesting.
The first blockbuster of the summer is finally here: The Avengers, with Joss Whedon at the helm and all the actors you would expect in their various rolls. If you have been going to the movies for the past handful of years you have been watching them build up to this one, movie by movie. If you haven’t, no need to panic, because you can do them ALL AT ONCE!!!! Two different theater chains are running marathons of all 6 of the movies (yes, I know there are way more than 6 Marvel movies, but in this instance we are only talking about the 6 leading up to the Avengers, and even at that they are only including the second Hulk movie, where I think they should have started with Hulk 1), select Cinemark theaters will let you watch them all for $20 for the set, assuming you are close enough to one of the theaters with the deal and they haven’t already sold out, while AMC has the same deal going for the same set of movies at twice the price. In order, the films for the marathons are: Iron Man, The Incredible Hulk, Iron Man 2, Thor 3D, Captain America 3D, and The Avengers 3D.
