Zack Snyder is making a new movie. He directed that Dawn of The Dead remake, 300, and Watchmen. It looks like after tricking his geek audience into watching well oiled Spartans flex and fight for 2 hours, he’s going to deliver a movie full of fan service in the opposite direction.

Check out the trailer and these sexy posters. You’re a man right?

I was told this clip has Ryan Reynold reciting the Green Lantern oath to a young fan. Reynold has of course been cast as Hal Jordan in the Green Lantern movie and this oath is very important to the mythos.

As far as I know its in there somewhere, but all I see is sideboob.

UGO.com posted 4 new character one-sheets that sufficiently tease up for the upcoming Green Lantern movie.
Ryan Reynolds is Hal Jordan.
Blake Lively is Carol Farris.
Mark Strong is Sinestro.
Peter Saarsgaard is Hector Hammond.

   

During the Marvel Studios Panel fans got to see clips of both Captain America (which only has 5 days of shooting so far) and Thor (which is much further along), but the talk of the show was the entire Avengers cast on stage.

Robert Downey Jr. as Tony Stark/Iron Man, Clark Gregg as Agent Coulson, Scarlett Johansson as Black Widow, Chris Hemsworth as Thor, Chris Evans as Captain America, Samuel L. Jackson as Nick Fury, Jeremy Renner as Hawkeye, and Mark Ruffalo as Bruce Banner/Incredible Hulk. Joining them was Director Joss Whedon and Marvel Studios President Kevin Feige

Whedon announced “I’ve had a dream all my life, and it was not this good! …and I am going to blow it!”

The movie is nowhere near filming yet, and even further from release, but with the role of Bruce Banner recast for the 2nd time in a decade, its one step closer to being reality.

The logo above appears on the official Avengers movie site.

Of course they didn’t just set up the Throne of Asgard just for Stan Lee.

Marvel studios rolled out The Destroyer, the enchanted armor that will be worn by the big bad of next summer’s “Thor: Mighty Avenger”

The SDCC Marvel Studios panel is beginning as this post is going up, we expect to bring more news on Thor, Captain America, and The Avengers soon.

One of the more elaborate displays at SDCC this year is the Throne of Asgard to help hype the forthcoming Thor movie. UGO managed to snap a couple pictures of Stan Lee sitting on the throne. You can check them out here. I’ve added a few more images of throne after the jump.

This is common knowledge at this point, but during one of the panels at SDCC, Joss Whedon was directly asked what his involvement was in the forthcoming Avengers film. His response was, “the Avengers directing job is not an official thing from Marvel but …I’m making it official RIGHT NOW!” So, there ya go. Joss Whedon is directing the Avengers. 20 minutes into the film, it will end prematurely and cause nerdrage throughout the internet causing countless online petitions to be started.
