Okay, so they’re not ALL fighting clips. There are a couple of just talking clips. A couple of kissing clips. And a couple of negotiating clips. But yeah, there is one or two that involves actual fighting. Robot fighting!

A Terra Nova Review, or, Why The Teenage Kid Gotta be so Predictably Annoying?
Dear Hollywood: despite what you may think, not every teenage boy out there is an annoying little prick suffering from uncontrollable, mysterious teen angst. And certainly not after you’ve sent him a gazillion million years into the past through a fancy schmancy time portal/gateway doohickey, and to a world surrounded by mysterious wonders, dino-friggin’-saurs, and the like.
Star Wars Blu-Ray Saga Cleans up to the Tune of $84 Million in Just One Week
Love them or hate them (but apparently it’s more of the former), George Lucas has added a few more million to his bank account. And of course by “a few” we mean $84 million in just one week of Blu-ray sales for his just-released “Star Wars” saga on Blu-ray
Oh Boy! Quantum Leap Returns to TV … as Source Code the TV Show
Hey, if you can’t get Scott Bakula and Dean Stockwell back on the tube together, you mind as well get a decent facsimile in a TV show based on the movie “Source Code”. It’s essentially the same premise, right? Guy jumps back in time into the body of someone and has to solve a problem. In this case, it’ll probably be murders, robberies, nuclear attacks, etc, but it’s still essentially the same idea.
Red Band Trailer for The Thing
A minute-long Red Band Trailer for director Matthijs van Heijningen Jr’s “The Thing” prequel. Yes, it’s a prequel. That’s pretty much in stone now. Or, er, in ice, I guess, would be more appropriate.
Another Piece of Riddick 3 Concept Artwork
The ever affable Vin Diesel, as he is wont to do, has put out yet another concept artwork for his upcoming “Riddick 3″ movie, which we hear tell he’s still working on with writer/director David Twohy. Being that Twohy doesn’t have a Facebook page with a gazillion fans, it’s up to Diesel to keep us abreast of what’s transpiring in ol Riddick world. Take a gander, won’t you?
Fringe Season 4 Teaser Trailer
The fourth season of “Fringe” returns September 23rd. I think Peter is missing or something…
The Darkest Hour Motion Poster
Because a regular poster just isn’t enough, here’s a motion poster for “The Darkest Hour”. Gonna be kinda hard putting this on the wall, I’d imagine…
First TV Spot For The Thing
Mary Elizabeth Winstead with a flamethrower FTW.
Emma Stone and her Princess Leia Hair Buns Stand up to Cancer
Man, Emma Stone is cute. Emma Stone with Princess Leia hair buns as part of the Star Wars “Stand up to Cancer” campaign is even cuter.
Abrams Officially Signs on to Direct Star Trek 2
You know, the reboot of the franchise? Well, J.J. Abrams, who directed the first reboot, has officially signed on to direct the sequel.
I never doubted that he would.
Alex Kurtzman and Roberto Orci, along with Damon Lindelof, will write the script. Everyone is expected back, including Chris Pine as Kirk, Zachary Quinto as Spock, Zoe Saldana as Uhura, Anton Yelchin as Chekov, and the rest.
New Images and a Clip From The Thing Prequel
Still don’t think there’s any reason to remake/make a prequel to John Carpenter’s “The Thing”, but whatever, they’re doing it, so deal, I guess. New images from the prequel below. Mary Elizabeth Winstead looks cute as all heck, but the movie doesn’t look that great. The clip, in particular, screams generic cheese. But that’s the problem with prequels, isn’t it? You already know where they’re going and how they’ll end.
New Real Steel TV Spot, Clip, and Featurette
Well? You feeling the real steel yet? Me, I’m kind meh on this. Looks like decent family entertainment, but when you’ve got giant robots doing battle, I kinda wish it wasn’t in the ring. You know, maybe on an alien planet or something. It just seems like all that big ass studio budget is going to such waste…
Sci-Fi Babe of the Day: Chuck’s Yvonne Strahovski in Maxim
“Chuck’s” Yvonne Strahovski gives up her guns and kick-ass asskickery for a shot at the cover of Maxim Magazine. Photoshoot and video included. Chuck is one lucky nerd. I’m not entirely sure why the apparently uber sweet Yvonne Strahovski is giving me the finger in one of the shots, but I’m gonna blame that on the photographer making her do it. Yeah, that’s the ticket.
Steven Spielberg Will Bring About The Robopocalypse in 2013
When Steven Spielberg goes sci-fi, I’m always interested. Unless it’s sci-fi where sci-fi shouldn’t be, like that last “Indiana Jones” movie, but let’s not talk about that. Anyways, it’s officially official: Spielberg will direct “Robopocalypse” as his next movie, with the film scheduled for July 3, 2013 — just in time to cash in on the July 4th weekend.
