The Losers Have Winning Trailer

"The Losers" is a DC/Vertigo comic book property that just got itself a Hollywood adaptation. The good news is, Hollywood picked a winner when it settled on "The Losers". The story is solid if I remember the comic book (of which I've only read a couple of the trade paperbacks) and from the looks of the trailer, that has translated well into the silver screen.

Quite the cast as well in this one. Zoe Saldana, just off "Star Trek" and voicing the "hot" Na'vi in James Cameron's "Avatar" is in this one. So is Jeffrey Dean Morgan, who from the trailer, might have finally found a filmed project he doesn't bite the bullet in. Or maybe not. He does spend quality time in a coffin in this movie. And, the always entertaining Chris Evans is in this.

All in all, a pretty solid trailer for a pretty solid movie I'm definitely looking out for.

New Watchmen Footage from Spyke Awards Show

I knew there was a reason that Spyke was a cable network. This is one of the best things they've aired, and it's not even a show. "Watchmen", Zack Snyder's adaptation of the DC Comics classic, is not due for release until 2009, which isn't that far away in the context that this year is almost over. But after watching this new footage, it feels like a lot longer. The movie looks fantastic.
