Marvel Announces TV Division Run By Jeph Loeb

marvel
Jeph Loeb, the comic writer responsible for successful runs on Batman, Superman, The Avengers, and other characters has been appointed the head of a new TV division of Marvel Entertainment. He’ll be in charge of seeing Marvel comics characters translated to TV in both animated and live action formats, as well as direct to DVD movies.

Loeb is no stranger to TV, having been a contributing writer to Heroes, Smallville, and Lost in recent years. He’s been under exclusive contract with Marvel since 2005.

Now lets get this out of the way: Loeb is a mixed bag. Yeah, he’s written some legit classics like The Long Halloween, but he’s also gotten some of the most vocal critical lashing I’ve ever heard on a comic writer. Still, he’s familiar with both side of this business and perhaps as a creative director and executive producer he can be more effective than he was on Heroes or The Ultimates.

What do you think? Is now the time to turn X-Men or The Punisher into a weekly live action series? I think it is!

Late Night With Jimmy Fallon’s Video Game Week

Look, we all miss Conan. Its OK. Lets move on.

Late Night With Jimmy Fallon is probably the most geek friendly network TV show on the air, and they tested the limits. This week was “Video Game Week” since Jimmy couldn’t go to E3, he brought on a game demo every night. Last night for the finale he had Nintendo of America Reggie Fils-Amie show of Donkey Kong Country Returns. Jimmy mentions the last DK game he played was on N64, and then Reggie tried to correct him by saying it was a Super NES game. Nintendo’s revisionist history at work.

Hit the jump for demos for Jimmy playing Killzone 3, Need For Speed Hot Pursuit, Kinect, and Call Of Duty Black Ops. [Read the rest of this entry…]



Halo Reach Has Firefight! Full Gameplay Video


Over the course of E3, Halo: Reach developer Bungie did mention in interviews that the Firefight game mode would return. They even said matchmaking would be part of the experience and there would be lots of customization options.
What they didn’t show us was the game in action, so here you go. Grunts, Jackyls, Brutes, and Elites.

Also: the “BlackEye” Skull is gone. Hoorah!



The Green Hornet Trailer

Seth Rogen lost a lot of weight a couple years back and it was all with the aim of taking over The Green Hornet. This didn’t seem likely since the movie had been in development hell with everyone from George Clooney to Kevin Smith attached at various points in the last 2 decades. Even this version of the film switched directors twice before settling on Michel Gondry.
But now here we are the movie is coming out in 2011 in 3D! I wouldn’t normally put an exclamation mark on “3D” but Michel Gondry has an excellent visual effects track record.
In addition to the trailer, here are a few stills released by the studio of Rogen as The Green Hornet and Jay Chou as his partner Kato.

Scott Pilgrim VS The World International Trailer

Either way, thanks to Inter-Net, we can watch the videos anyway.

Marvel VS Capcom 3: Dante & Deadpool

deadpooldanteOf course we’re still really excited for the next installment in the Capcom Vs series. The newest characters, Dante from Devil May Cry and Deadpool from Marvel, are no great surprise as they were hinted at from the beginning. This new teaser picks up where the last left off, and hints at even more characters to be revealed soon.

Capcom promised a roster of at least 30 characters, so we might be looking at a lot of trailers over the next few months, if they only do 2 at a time…
