Film Trailer: Man of Steel

Slightly creepy start to the first Man of Steel trailer. Due to land in the summer of 2013 at some time. I think it could be a reboot that the Superman franchise needs that the 2006 'Superman Returns' film didn't deliver (although it had Kevin Spacey in it and he's good in everything he does). With the hugely successful 'Dark Knight' trilogy having finished and the massive box office flop that was Green Lantern, I think DC Comics need to find a new score of characters to adapt to films to stay in the game and keep up the juggernaut that is Marvel. Directed by Zach Snyder, who I like but sometimes don't (I liked 300, I hated Sucker Punch and I loved Watchmen), it ill be interesting to see what he can come out with under the watchful eye of Christopher Nolan as head producer.

Fan Made Film: Dirty Laundry

Always been a slight fan of fan made film genre when done well. But this fan made film is done so well it might just be sparking a reboot for Frank Castle and his alter-ego Punisher. Coming straight out of SDCC this year, a 10 minute short made by and staring Thomas Jane who originally started in the 2004 'The Punisher' as protagonists Frank Castle (which in my opinion was under rated), which didn't get a proper sequel but instead got a reboot follow up staring Ray Stevenson (that film was god dam awful). But eight years on and it seems that people might just be interested in a 18 certificate comic book film adaptation. We shall see.

According to Jane, the reason he made the film was out of pure love for the character.

"I wanted to make a fan film for a character I've always loved and believed in - a love letter to Frank Castle & his fans. It was an incredible experience with everyone on the project throwing in their time just for the fun of it. It's been a blast to be a part of from start to finish -- we hope the friends of Frank enjoy watching it as much as we did making it."

Be warned the film short contains blood, gore, bad language and Ron Perlman!

Video Check: Is Tropical - The Greeks

Homemade video for the song "The Greeks" by a cool band Is Tropical, who I once saw live and are actually quite good and worth checking out. The video ont he other hand is just nuts.

Track Check: P Money - Dubsteppin'

Always been a fan of P Money and the things he done for grime/dubstep. Deffo worth a listen!

Track Check: Ali Fraser - High Hopse

Just an chilled track from an old university acquaintance. Enjoy.

Film Trailer: The Man With The Iron Fists

So I'm not a massive fan of kung-fu films. But when RZA (of the Wu-Tang Clan) Eli Roth and Quentin Tarantino come together and make a kung fu film that is something I would watch! With actors Lucy Liu (who is also part of hip-hop group The Bullits), Russel Crowe and RZA, this film is set to kick the stereo-type of normal kung fu film and inject it some hip-hop adrenaline.
