Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. Is Looking Better and Better....

Great googly moogly! The more footage and featurettes that I see about the upcoming Marvel show, 'Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.' the more impressed and excited I become. The newest featurette, Marvel has released, takes us behind the scenes and introduces us to the team that will be featured week to week on the show. The black ops agent, the computer hacker, the paper-pusher who should be in the field, the boy/girl scientist team.... yup, all the typical tropes for a team show are there. They are all lead by the fearless... and clearly not dead... Agent Coulson! This show clearly takes place AFTER the events of 'The Avengers', and Coulson obviously isn't dead... LUCY, YOU GOT SOME 'SPLAININ TO DO??? How is my man alive? And what about the rumors that we will see Maria Hill (the sexy ass Colby Smulders) on the show checking in from time to time? I also hope we get Samuel L.'s voiceovers directing the team in the vein of 'Charlie's Angels' since he won't appear consistently... OHHHH, the possibilities are endless. The show starts on Sept 24th and will be broadcast on ABC. Check out the featurette after the jump...

Cool 'Man of Steel' Featurette

This very well produced feature on the upcoming Man of Steel movie is the very reason why the Internet is so cool for me. It gives me access to such great pieces that are especially interesting when the product they are showing off is something I am already genetically primed to love. There is no way that 'Man of Steel' won't be the biggest hit of the summer. I am sure the movie will bring me to tears like this feature did at times. The Golden Age of the superhero movie continues.

The Wizard May Be Important To Oz, But I am All About The Witches...

I have been eagerly anticipating the arrival of the plentiful amount of Wizrad of Oz based projects that are due to hit in the next couple of months. As a huge fan of the Skottie Young drawn comic (that header photo is from that series) from marvel, the original novels by L Frank Baum, and the Wicked novels... well, lets just say I love me some stories from the mystical land of Oz. But the classic film changed a bunch of stuff from the books and most of these newer projects planned on showing another side to the source material. The one that stands out the most has to be the Sam Raimi helmed 'Oz the Great And Powerful'. This one gives us James Franco in the titular role of the Wizard (does this guy ever stop working?) and tells us the part of the epic tale of when the Wizard first came to Oz. But it also gives us a glimpse at the wonderful witches of Oz, the ones made all the books & film versions of the land of Oz exciting. The three witches that plan to play a prominent role in this film are played by three killer actresses, and I am sure the they are going to do a great job. Michelle Williams, Mila Kunis, and Rachel Weisz are on deck to play the spell casters... and I can't possibly think of a better group of talented and beautiful actresses to fill the role. The movie hits theaters on March 8th, and I am sure we are going to get blitzed in the press over Super Bowl weekend, but you can meet the witches and take a look at the wonderful world that Sam Raimi has created in a small featurette after the jump....
