Michael Haneke’s Amour in comic strip form.
Speaking of Thor 2: here’s me diving way too deep into these two shots from the trailer.
We’ve known for months that Jamie Foxx would segue from his gruff cowboy character Django to what would be one of the wildest Spider-Man villains ever to grace the big screen.
Had a blast with this interview!
Monkey Brain comics is putting out “Theremin,” a comic that plays up the espionage side of inventor/musician Leon Theremin’s life, in March. I don’t know how I feel about this. I am a huge theremin enthusiast. I’ve always found Theremin’s life as interesting as the music that his invention has produced, but turning it into an adventure story… I don’t know. Will definitely read. I’m scared, but I will.
Hey people who produce comic book movies, I think there’s something to be learned a thing from Amazing Spider-Man #700, Dan Slott, and the guys in the actual comic biz. This book was a lot of fun.
Operation Kino 91: Silver Linings Playbook Gets A Full Four-Person Review
This week on Operation Kino, we’re off our meds and running laps around the neighborhood, as all four of us — yes, even Da7e saw it! — review David O. Russell’s new film Silver Linings Playbook. From there we jump into what’s been a hot topic: movie run times, whether there is a certain length movies should be, and whether any of this really matters. Before any of that, though, we’ve got tidbits, in which David talks about Killing Them Softly, Patches catches you up on the docs Ai Wei Wei: Never Sorry and The Gatekeepers, Da7e runs down the year in comics, and Katey ponders the many cultural reference points within Dog Day Afternoon.
The full Oatmeal comic sums up the life of a content creator pretty well.
Wanted 2 won’t bring back Angelina Jolie, but will feature a new female lead character.
Da7e, Devindra and Matt are recording an episode on the three part ATLA comic “The Promise.” Chime in with your own two cents by leaving a comment or sending us a note. Reblog and spread the word!
I enjoyed the 1st Thor, but damn, Thor: The Dark World looks awesome and nerdy as all hell!
A piece of unused art by Phil Jimenez for a Justice League/Transformers crossover pitch, with colors by Romulo Fajardo Jr. Nerd chills. Wow!
