Wonder Woman and Justice League - SDCC Trailers



Warner Bros. has released the Comic-Con trailer for Wonder Woman!



Definitely feels different from Man of Steel and Batman v Superman, which might be a good thing. I like what I see so far. It is fun seeing Wonder Woman plow through random soldiers, but they may be a little too easy to take down. Knowing Warner Bros, they will give Wonder Woman a suitably formidable antagonist to fight. Looking forward to seeing more.

Directed by Patty Jenkins, the films stars Gal Gadot, Chris Pine, Robin Wright, Connie Nielsen, Lucy Davis, Lisa Loven Kongsli, Florence Kasumba, Danny Huston, David Thewlis, Ewen Bremner, Saïd Taghmaoui, and Elena Anaya.

Here is a synopsis:

"Diana (Gal Gadot), princess of the Amazons, was raised on a sheltered island and trained to be an unconquerable fighter. After American pilot Steve Trevor (Chris Pine) crashes on the island and tells her about a world war that is happening, Diana leaves her home to try to stop the war."


Surprisingly, Warner Bros. also released the Comic-Con trailer for Justice League!



It is exciting to finally see all these characters together on screen. Looks like Warner Bros. is changing the overall tone of their films to feel less grim. This is not a bad choice, but hopefully they also understand that it will require more than just a tonal shift to make the films work. As of now, I am cautiously optimistic.

Directed by Zack Snyder, the film stars Ben Affleck, Henry Cavill, Gal Gadot, Jason Momoa, Ezra Miller, and Ray Fisher.

Here is the official synopsis:

"Fueled by his restored faith in humanity and inspired by Superman's selfless act, Bruce Wayne enlists the help of his newfound ally, Diana Prince, to face an even greater enemy. Together, Batman and Wonder Woman work quickly to find and recruit a team of metahumans to stand against this newly awakened threat. But despite the formation of this unprecedented league of heroes - Batman, Wonder Woman, Aquaman, Cyborg, and The Flash - it may already be too late to save the planet from an assault of catastrophic proportions."

Wonder Woman will arrive on July 2, 2017, while Justice League is scheduled for release on November 17, 2017.

Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice - Official Final Trailer



Watch the epic final trailer for Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice!



Wow, that was the best trailer by far. Batman looked brutal in the opening fight scene. This is the trailer they should have released in the first place. I am definitely pumped to watch this now more than ever.

Directed by Zack Snyder, the film stars Henry Cavill, Ben Affleck, Gal Gadot, Jesse Eisenberg, Amy Adams, Laurence Fishburne, Jeremy Irons, Diane Lane, Holly Hunter, and Jason Momoa.

Here is an official synopsis:

"Fearing the actions of a god-like super hero left unchecked, Gotham City's own formidable, forceful vigilante takes on Metropolis' most revered, modern-day savior, while the world wrestles with what sort of hero it really needs. And with Batman and Superman at war with one another, a new threat quickly arises, putting mankind in greater danger than it's ever known before."

Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice will arrive in US theaters on March 25, 2016.

Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice - Official Trailer 2



Doomsday appears in the new trailer for Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice!



Still not sure about Lex Luthor, but it is exciting to see Batman, Superman, and Wonder Woman teaming up against the devastating Doomsday. Just as exciting, this film will be a catalyst for several more DC Comics based movies, including the eventual release of a Justice League film. Hopefully Warner Bros. can keep the quality of the films up.

Directed by Zack Snyder, the film stars Henry Cavill, Ben Affleck, Gal Gadot, Jesse Eisenberg, Amy Adams, Laurence Fishburne, Jeremy Irons, Diane Lane, Holly Hunter, and Jason Momoa.

Here is an official synopsis:

"Fearing the actions of a god-like super hero left unchecked, Gotham City's own formidable, forceful vigilante takes on Metropolis' most revered, modern-day savior, while the world wrestles with what sort of hero it really needs. And with Batman and Superman at war with one another, a new threat quickly arises, putting mankind in greater danger than it's ever known before."

Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice will arrive in US theaters on March 25, 2016.

Arrow - Season 4 Trailer



The CW debuted the season 4 trailer for Arrow at Dragon Con and it has a few surprises.



Yes, that is Constantine at the 43 second mark. Looking forward to that crossover. Now if another network could just pick up the series where it left off.

Also noteworthy, Diggle debuts his new crimefighting costume this season.

Magneto?

It's about time he donned a mask. Diggle looks a bit like a modern version of The Guardian, an obscure hero from the pages of DC Comics.

The trailer also showed off Neal McDonough as Damien Darkh, Alexander Calvert as Anarky, Echo Kellum as Mr. Terrific, and the return of Caity Lotz as Sarah Lance. Season 4 is going to be interesting to say the least.

The new season of Arrow will premiere on Wednesday, October 7th at 8pm/7c on The CW.

Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice - Comic-Con Trailer



Warner Bros. has released the Comic-Con trailer for Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice. "Black and blue. God vs. man. Day vs. night."



Although I am still not too sure about Lex Luthor with the ugly shirt and toupee, Jesse Eisenberg's acting is great, and everything else looked amazing. The only real concern is how much it looks like they are cramming into this movie. That said, it is difficult not to get hyped for this. Batman is livid with Superman for the destruction from the first film, and Ben Affleck's acting is looking above form in the trailer.

Noteworthy: we finally got to see Wonder Woman in action! Also, will Zod's dead body come into play somehow? Is the child Wayne is holding going to be his Robin? How does Aquaman figure into the story? What was with that fight between Batman and those soldiers? So many questions, but I would rather wait to watch the movie for the answers.

Directed by Zack Snyder, the film stars Henry Cavill, Ben Affleck, Jesse Eisenberg, Jeremy Irons, Amy Adams, Laurence Fishburne, Gal Gadot, and Jason Momoa.

Here is an official synopsis:

"Fearing the actions of a god-like super hero left unchecked, Gotham City's own formidable, forceful vigilante takes on Metropolis' most revered, modern-day savior, while the world wrestles with what sort of hero it really needs. And with Batman and Superman at war with one another, a new threat quickly arises, putting mankind in greater danger than it's ever known before."

Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice will arrive in US theaters on March 25, 2016.

Batman: Arkham Knight - "All Who Follow You" Trailer



Nightwing, Robin, and Catwoman join the fight in the latest trailer for Batman: Arkham Knight.



The new trailer is showing off the new "Dual Play" mechanic, which Warner Bros. says allows players to "switch seamlessly between The Dark Knight and his allies including Robin, Nightwing, and Catwoman in free-flow combat." Sounds like developer Rocksteady Studios is working very hard to make this an amazing last entry in the Arkham series.

Here is a short synopsis for the game:

"In the explosive finale to the 'Arkham' series, Batman faces the ultimate threat against the city he is sworn to protect. The Scarecrow returns to unite an impressive roster of super villains, including Penguin, Two-Face and Harley Quinn, to destroy the Dark Knight forever. Batman: Arkham Knight introduces Rocksteady's uniquely designed version of the Batmobile, which is drivable for the first time in the franchise. The addition of this legendary vehicle, combined with the acclaimed gameplay of the 'Batman Arkham' series, offers gamers the ultimate and complete Batman experience as they tear through the streets and soar across the skyline of the entirety of Gotham City."

Batman: Arkham Knight will arrive on June 23rd for the PC, Xbox One, and PS4.

Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice - First Official Teaser Trailer



Warner Bros. has officially released the full HD teaser trailer for Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice. Now with 100% less shaky cam!



That last line was badass. Also loved the imagery of a human looking up at Superman like he is some kind of angel or god, only to be followed by "False God" scrawled on a statue of him.

For those familiar with Frank Miller's graphic novel The Dark Knight Returns, the film should look familiar. Batman's armor and bulky frame are straight out of the pages of the book. However, there is a bit of role reversal this time around in the sense that Superman appears to be reviled by the public in the film, whereas Batman was the pariah in Miller's story.

Directed by Zack Snyder, the film stars Henry Cavill, Ben Affleck, Jesse Eisenberg, Jeremy Irons, Amy Adams, Laurence Fishburne, Gal Gadot, and Jason Momoa.

Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice will arrive in US theaters on March 25, 2016.

Mortal Kombat X - Official Launch Trailer



Check out the bone-crunching launch trailer for Mortal Kombat X, featuring music from System of a Down.



The trailer was directed by Shavo Odadjian, a member of the band System of a Down. He did a great job putting the imagery from the game together with his band's hit song, "Chop Suey!" The trailer definitely got me pumped for the game.

Here's a synopsis:

"Mortal Kombat X is NetherRealm Studios' next highly-anticipated installment in its legendary, critically acclaimed fighting game franchise that propels the iconic franchise into a new generation. The game combines cinematic presentation with all new gameplay to deliver the most brutal Kombat experience ever, offering a new fully-connected experience that launches players into a persistent online contest where every fight matters in a global battle for supremacy.

Batman: Arkham Knight - "Gotham is Mine" Trailer



Batman must protect Gotham from Scarecrow in the newest trailer for Batman: Arkham Knight.



Each trailer looks better than the last one. It appears Poison Ivy is returning along with The Riddler, Harley Quinn, Two-Face, and The Penguin. Could not help but notice the heavily armed thugs as well. Each Arkham game has raised the stakes and this one looks to do the same. However, Rocksteady Studios appears to be pushing the envelope even further than before, seeing as this is the first Batman game to be rated M for its mature content. Nonetheless, considering how good Arkham Asylum and Arkham City were, this is a game that should be on almost everyone's radar.

Here is a short synopsis:

"In the explosive finale to the 'Arkham' series, Batman faces the ultimate threat against the city he is sworn to protect. The Scarecrow returns to unite an impressive roster of super villains, including Penguin, Two-Face and Harley Quinn, to destroy the Dark Knight forever. Batman: Arkham Knight introduces Rocksteady's uniquely designed version of the Batmobile, which is drivable for the first time in the franchise. The addition of this legendary vehicle, combined with the acclaimed gameplay of the 'Batman Arkham' series, offers gamers the ultimate and complete Batman experience as they tear through the streets and soar across the skyline of the entirety of Gotham City."

Batman: Arkham Knight will arrive on June 2 for the PC, Xbox One, and PS4.

Mortal Kombat X - Kitana and Kung Lao Gameplay Trailer



Kitana and Kung Lao return in the newest gameplay trailer for Mortal Kombat X!



It is nice to see Goro brought back into the mix, though it is too bad he is pre-order DLC. Nonetheless, there seems to be a nice mix of old favorites and new fighters for the newest iteration of the gory fighter.

Mortal Kombat X is set to release on April 14 for the PC, Xbox 360, PS3, Xbox One, and PS4.

Batman: Arkham Knight - ACE Chemicals Infiltration Trailer: Part 3



Batman kicks butt in the final part of the ACE Chemicals Infiltration trailer for Batman: Arkham Knight.



Shown today at Sony's PlayStation Experience event, the gameplay looks amazing. Great way to end off the big trailer. The PS4 exclusive Scarecrow mission looks impressive as well.

Here is a short synopsis for the game:

"In the explosive finale to the 'Arkham' series, Batman faces the ultimate threat against the city he is sworn to protect. The Scarecrow returns to unite an impressive roster of super villains, including Penguin, Two-Face and Harley Quinn, to destroy the Dark Knight forever. Batman: Arkham Knight introduces Rocksteady's uniquely designed version of the Batmobile, which is drivable for the first time in the franchise.

Awesome! The trailer shows off Batman's aggressive new Fear Takedown, and the integration of Batmobile gameplay. The graphics also impress with a highly detailed cinematic look to the in-game engine.

Arrow: Season 3 - Extended Trailer with Ra's al Ghul



Ra's al Ghul appears in the extended Comic-Con trailer for Season 3 of Arrow!



The inclusion of such a great character like Ra's al Ghul is sure to get fans excited. They have good reason, considering the excellent first two seasons, the second of which raised the bar in terms of story, action, character development, and set pieces.

Another character being introduced this season is Ted Grant/Wildcat, a former boxer who will be involved in a story with Laurel Lance.

Wildcat from the comics.

The new season of Arrow will premiere on Wednesday, October 8th on the CW.

Constantine - Full Comic-Con Trailer



Warner Bros. released the full Comic-Con trailer for NBC's new supernatural series Constantine!



Yes, that is Doctor Fate's helmet in the trailer. Does that mean we could see the character show up on the program?

Doctor Fate for the uninitiated.

Here's hoping we get to see a few of DC Comics' occult characters showing up the same way we get superheroes like the Flash and Ray Palmer/The Atom on Arrow. I'm rooting for appearances by Deadman and Etrigan the Demon.

Constantine premieres on Friday, October 24th at 10/9c on NBC.

Zack Snyder Reveals Gal Gadot as Wonder Woman at Comic-Con



Zack Snyder finally revealed Gal Gadot as Wonder Woman from Batman v. Superman: Dawn of Justice at Comic-Con! Take a look at the Amazonian superhero in her full armor (click the photo for HD resolution).

Awesome sword is awesome.

Warner Bros. also recently gave us another look at Ben Affleck as Batman.

Dat chin doe.

Here is a look at DC's "Trinity" (Superman, Batman, and Wonder Woman) side by side.

Are you excited yet?

Now that Warner Bros. has shown us their Trinity, how about we get a look at Lex Luthor (Jesse Eisenberg), Cyborg (Ray Fisher), and the rumored Aquaman (Jason Momoa)?

They did show some footage of the film to the Comic-Con crowd, but the rest of us will have to wait a little while for that. Can't wait to see more!

Batman v. Superman: Dawn of Justice will open in US theaters on May 6th, 2016.

Arrow: Season 3 - Full Comic-Con Trailer



The Comic-Con trailer for Season 3 of Arrow takes a look at Arsenal, Brandon Routh as Ray Palmer, and more!

*WARNING* Contains spoilers for Season 2.



So much to think about from that trailer. Arsenal's outfit looks awesome, and it's great to see Brandon Routh back in a DC role, though this time as Ray Palmer. Fingers crossed that we get to see him become the Atom.

The teasing of the Oliver/Felicity pairing (or Olicity) is sure to excite some fans. Blink and you miss Palmer doing a slide show of Starling City possibly being renamed Star City, just like in the Green Arrow comics.

It was also easy to miss Roy Harper in his new Arsenal gear. Here is a better look.

Now that is a badass costume to fight crime in.

With the second season being even better than the first, it will be interesting to see how the showrunners outdo themselves this time around. Definitely looking forward to the new season.

Arrow returns to the CW on Wednesday, October 8th.
