Halo 3: Zanzibar Returns!


Turn down your speakers before getting too far into this video, but heartily enjoy the feast for the eyes. Halo 2’s best map, Zanzibar, is back as “Last Resort”

The inside of the base is completely different, but before long the player is looking around the outside and you see how far this has come. You’ll also get a taste of the Spartan Laser and the ATV.

I can’t wait to play Assault here.



Xbox 360 Elite Accessories In Stores

Just got back from Walmart, and while I was there I snapped a couple pictures with my camera phone of the Xbox 360 Elite Accessories that are apparently already for sale. The 120 GB Drive was priced at $172, the black controller is $49.99.

Of note on the black control, it includes a battery pack and a charging cable, usually priced at $20. I’ve been rocking the white box and have no intentions of stepping up (I’m 1337 enough as it is) but I’ll get that black control just for the battery savings.



The Brothers Solomon Trailer


Bob Odenkirk directs a comedy starring SNL’s Will Forte and Arrested Development’s Will Arnett.

Why am I posting this? Because Will Arnett is insanely funny, but hasn’t yet had a huge hit movie. This may change that.



WOLVERINE! …and the the x-men

Well at least they’re being upfront about it.

wolverineandthexmen.jpgThis is a promotional image that popped up online on Omelete.com for some reason. A new animated series for the X-Men has been in the works for some time, and we’d heard they would “focus” on Wolverine, but I didn’t imagine he’d get top billing like that. Take a look at Xavier in the background. He’s got new legs like Lt Dan.

Where is there room for the other major X-men players? Will there even be any character development for secondary characters? I realize thats a lot to assume from a single image, but they’re the ones who put Wolverine in 400 pt font.

Marvel is producing this themselves, not unlike the Avengers or Iron Man movies they’ve already released. Steve Blum will play Wolverine, no word yet if he’ll use the same voice he always uses in every role he’s ever played.



Voltron Reeboks!

I got this hot tip on the chellphone this evening from powet faithful Robbie.

Reebok will be releasing 5 new colors for the Reebok Classic this October. These special shoes will be colored like one of the 5 Lion mechs, and each pair will come with the corresponding toy. Blue shoe gets you the blue lion, red gets you the red lion, and so on. Get all 5 pairs and you’ll be able to form Voltron: Defend Of The Universe!

I’ve never in my wildest dreams imagined the Voltron revamp would come from Reebok, but here it is. Five shoes, Five lions. These are apparently destined to tie in with a new 2008 series, which we’ve heard some rumors about.

We’ll have more info on this later, including where these shoes should be for sale and how much they’ll cost. If you had to give your favorite toyline a shoe, what would it be? Leave a comment below.



The Big Lebowski Action Figures

lebowski2.jpg
The Cohen Brothers have certainly made some good movies, and even made a few of them with John Goodman. But none so good as The Big Lebowski, and no John Goodman role is as good as Walter Sobchak.

biglebowski.jpgIt was with a great amount of excitement that I noticed a pair of action figures based on Walter and Jeffrey “The Dude” Lebowski are coming from a new toy company called Bif Banf Pow. They appear to be stylized, almost animated versions of Goodman and Jeff Bridges along with expected accessories: bowling bags, can of Folgers, and Walter’s ex-wife’s dog. At 8 inches, they’re a might big to put with some of my super hero action figures on a shelf, but The Dude should be right at home with any Sigma Six figure.

If for some reason you’ve not seen this movie, please do so. The Big Lebowski may be one of the greatest screen comedies ever produced.

First Dark Knight Set Pictures

And its a doozy.
hemightbejoker.jpg
From the SuperheroHype! forums we’ve got some spy photography from the set of The Dark Knight, the next Batman film.
The first image is someone who MIGHT be Heath Ledger. He’s definitely got a white face and green hair, but from this distance it could be a stand in. The second image is more clear, showing masks that the Joker’s crew will wear during the scene they were filming. I mentioned a scene was being filmed the other day at the old Chicago post office, and this appears to be from that same area.

Superhero Hype also has an extensive gallery of the sets themselves here.

Thanks to MaxCon for the link. So based on seeing virtually nothing, whats your knee jerk reaction? Leave a comment.



Haloid


If you haven’t seen this yet, prepare to be blown away at one man’s dedication to making great CG action and trying to show what might happen in a fight between Samus Aran and a USNC Spartan like Master Chief. Fight choreography is top. Give this man a job now.
