We're yet to see the first trailer for Joon-ho Bong's upcoming English language debut Snowpiercer (although we did get a few snippets of footage thanks to an international featurette), but to tide us over a new image has been released featuring several of the main players from the mysterious sci-fi, including Chris Evans (Captain America: The Winter Soldier), Ewen Bremner (Jack the Giant Slayer), Octavia Spencer (The Help), Kang-ho Song (The Good, the Bad, the Weird), Go Ah-sung (The Host) and Tilda Swinton (We Need to Talk About Kevin), the latter of whom is sporting a shoe on her head...

Damon Lindelof (Prometheus, Star Trek Into Darkness) has offered some advice to Warner Bros. about their planned Justice League movie, which will tie together their superhero properties of Batman, Superman, Wonder Woman, etc - just like Marvel did with The Avengers / Avengers Assemble.
In an interview with The Hollywood Reporter, Lindelof was asked whether he would help WB solve their 'Justice League problem' if they called. He deflected the question with his superpower of Suggestion Shield...
"I think a lot of that depends on Man of Steel. The Justice League problem is not a problem of, who is the bad guy that Wonder Woman and Green Lantern, Superman, whoever you decide to pit them against. The problem is: What’s the tone of that movie? They’ve been struggling with launching their own tone. The tone of Green Lantern is very different from the tone of The Dark Knight. They »

The CW has long been one of the best supporters of Our Kind of Shows, and at this year’s Upfronts they put even more money where our hearts are. Of the six new shows announced for the fall and winter schedule, four are for us: The Originals, The Tomorrow People, The 100, and Star-Crossed. Now of course more than one has that trademark The CW soap opera-ish spin on it, but hey, not Every show is for every one of us.
Here to assist in our prejudging are synopses for all, via Deadline, and maybe even better, clips and/or TV spots. There’s not really anything new for The Originals, but fans will want to see it all again anyway. The Tomorrow People features the wonderful Mark Pellegrino so it’s my favorite of the four.
The 100 (pronounced “the hundred”, not “the one hundred”) has an encouraging clip, »

Three new production featurettes for Zack Snyder's upcoming Superman film Man of Steel have been released (below) by Norton Anti-Virus. Yup. You know - the comic book-loving, computer protection programme (maybe Kryptonite is a new piece of malware).
There are a few glimpses of the film outside of those featured in the three trailers released so far, but interviews with cast and crew are also included. Each featurette focuses on a different one of Kal-El's powers: Strength, Flight and Speed.
"In the pantheon of superheroes, Superman is the most recognized and revered character of all time. Clark Kent/Kal-El is a young twentysomething journalist who feels alienated by powers beyond anyone’s imagination. Transported to Earth years ago from Krypton, an advanced alien planet, Clark struggles with the ultimate question – Why am I here? Shaped by the values of his adoptive parents Martha and Jonathan Kent, Clark soon discovers »

Universal Pictures has released the trailer for “Riddick,” starring Vin Diesel.
The latest chapter of the groundbreaking saga that began with 2000′s hit sci-fi film “Pitch Black” and 2004′s “The Chronicles of Riddick” reunites writer/director David Twohy (“A Perfect Getaway,” “The Fugitive”) and star Vin Diesel (the “Fast and Furious” franchise, “XXX”). Diesel reprises his role as the antihero Riddick, a dangerous, escaped convict wanted by every bounty hunter in the known galaxy.
The infamous Riddick has been left for dead on a sun-scorched planet that appears to be lifeless. Soon, however, he finds himself fighting for survival against alien predators more lethal than any human he’s encountered. The only way off is for Riddick to activate an emergency beacon and alert mercenaries who rapidly descend to the planet in search of their bounty.
The first ship to arrive carries a new breed of merc, more lethal and violent, »

Holy flying superheroes! The amount of video spots turning up for Man Of Steel is staggering, and while the veil of “secrecy” is still being withheld to a point, you gotta wonder how much more can they churn out? With over a month to go, is it peaking a little bit too soon? Anyway, the latest bunch of videos are from a tie in with Norton (yes the Virus people), which is pretty interesting as movie tie ins go. Usually its fast food, aftershave and watches. Check out the clips below which are mini featurettes with a bunch of footage and interviews with the likes of Henry Cavill, Russell Crowe, Kevin Costner and Zack Snyder. And yes there is some new footage here, nothing mindblowing though and its a case of blink and you’ll miss it! Synopsis: From Warner Bros. Pictures and Legendary Pictures comes “Man of Steel,” starring Henry Cavill (“Immortals, »

Even before “After Earth” crash lands into theaters at the end of the month, Sony’s sci-fi epic, starring Will Smith and his son Jaden, already has a big fan: Richard Branson.
The British mogul’s entertainment shingle Virgin Produced has paired with Overbrook Entertainment to co-produce, co-finance and co-market a sequel to “After Earth,” should the film strike a chord with moviegoers when the film, directed by M.

When Only God Forgives premieres next month at Cannes, listen carefully. Some films are employing very strange instruments to get the sounds they want
Cristal Baschet
Only God Forgives (2013)
What is it? It looks a bit like a large glockenspiel with sculpted metal tear drops attached.
Who built it? French instrument-makers and artists Bernard and François Baschet, in 1952.
How does it sound? It creates "a unique sense of melancholy and foreboding", says Cliff Martinez, the ex-Red Hot Chili Peppers drummer who worked with Nicolas Winding Refn on the soundtracks for Drive (2011) and Only God Forgives – which also stars Ryan Gosling, and premieres at Cannes the week after next. Both scores rely on the Cristal Baschet, which Martinez first saw at MoMA in New York when he was 10.
How do you play it? Martinez says it is "an art object that doubles as an all-acoustic, experimental instrument played with moistened »
