The Explosive “Wanted” Shootout You Will Never Get To See

Today’s spoilers include a scene from Wanted that destroyed James McAvoy’s crotch, but ended up cut from the film — and it won’t even be on the DVDs. (The scene’s description also gives away the movie’s big plot twist.) We also have our second batch of rumors about the villain(s) of the Avengers movie. And…

Meet The New Science Heroes

With the anti-science Bush Administration finally groaning to a halt, we may finally be willing to admire scientists. There are three new TV shows with scientist heroes coming this fall, creating a genre that hardly existed until now. We’ve always had lots of shows about doctors, lawyers and other highly paid professionals, but the science-hero…

Get Ready For Knight Rider’s Full-Throttle Dementia

Here’s your spoiler warning. The first details are starting to leak out about the Knight Rider TV show, which follows up last winter’s TV movie, and it sounds just as demented as you could possibly expect. There’s also another batch of Transformers 2 set reports and spoilers. And a ton of official info about the…

DC Comics Goes For A Fringe Audience

After having been announced last week in the unlikely pages of USA Today, yesterday’s release of DC Comics’ official solicitations for September means that we can find out a little bit more about the comic book version of JJ Abrams’ new Fox SF thriller, Fringe. Admittedly, it is literally just a little bit more, but…

Has The Villain Of The Avengers Movie Already Been Revealed?

Sometimes fake spoilers are more fun than real ones — as in the case of a Transformers 2 script treatment that’s probably fake, but hilarious. It can also be fun to watch people speculate wildly, as one insider has about the plot of the Avengers movie. And there’s nothing more fun than a passel of…

Original Battlestar Concept Paintings for Cylons, Ships, and Bug People

In the original Battlestar Galactica series, the cylons were created by lizard people, creatures who died off before they could hit the “shut down” buttons on their solider creations. Now you can see those old lizard-made cylons, plus some half-robo, half-bug creatures that the humans fight, in these amazing concept paintings by Ralph McQuarrie (also…

Battlestar Galactica Goes Planet of the Apes

Friday’s episode of Battlestar Galactica — the last we’ll be seeing of the humans-and-cyborgs psychodrama until next year — was called Revelations. The episode lived up to its name, which was a relief after an entire season holding our breaths waiting for certain dark robo-secrets to come to light. Oftentimes when a show gives us…

Yet Another Tacky Resurrection On Heroes?

Either Michael Bay isn’t doing that great a job of keeping spoiler-loving fans away from the filming of Transformers 2 — or he’s going to extreme lengths to stage fake shooting for the benefit of fans. Read our latest set reports (with pics) and decide for yourself. You can also decide for yourself whether two…

We’ve got the first clip of Arcee, the pink motorcycle Transformer, and all you have to do to watch it is listen to someone sing the praises of Transformers 2 director Michael Bay.

New Heroes Babe Is One of Us

With only three months between us and the start of a new season of Heroes, the hype machine is ratcheting up to try and remind us just why we should care about NBC’s superhuman soap one more time. So far, its phasers are set on “shallow,” and the message is this: “That new nemesis of…

Why Is Optimus Prime Getting Religion?

Spoiler alert: A new Hancock clip reveals the movie’s final big twist, and a ton of new Hulk clips show exactly what Liv Tyler is doing in this movie. A new Dark Knight TV spot reveals that… ummm, the Joker is weird, I guess. And a new Doctor Who clip is just plain intriguing. There…

Hair Dye Signifies Time Travel, On Heroes

It’s a video-heavy edition of Morning Spoilers, including an R-rated Wanted trailer (that gives away a big plot twist), a revealing clip from Friday’s Battlestar Galactica, a cute new Hancock clip, and a new Middle Man trailer.

You Owe Doctor Who To Blackberry

There’s a very good reason to check all of your emails, even the ones from senders whose addresses you don’t recognize: One of them may be Russell T. Davies writing to offer you a job. It may sound unlikely now, but new Doctor Who executive producer Steven Moffat found out that he was being offered…

Alien Reality Show Brings Violence, Giant Robots

Somewhere in the halls of NBC, an ad executive is looking at the high concept of Rick Remender and Eric Nguyen’s new comic Gigantic and weeping openly. He’s wondering just why he didn’t come up with the idea of a superhero reality show where a brainwashed alien hero fights against a series of threats to…

“Comic Books Unbound” Leaps Over History In Single Bound

Okay, so the new TV docu-history Comic Books Unbound may not tell you anything you didn’t know already. But don’t let that scare you away from the Movie Channel’s potted history of the medium and how it’s changed the face of modern movies. There are even testimonies from Paul Pope and (weirdly enough) Selma Blair.…

Watch The Hulk Talk And Hancock Drink — A Lot

A random thought: Many narratives are spoiler-proof. You pretty much know the main story beats of any superhero movie before you watch it. All that happens when you read spoilers is that you consume extra bits of the narrative out of sequence (which may make the story actually feel more intriguing, and add an extra…

Now It Sucks To Time Travel Via Head Injury

The American remake of British time-travel show Life On Mars has only just started airing trailers (with the wacky wa-wa pedal music) and it’s already in trouble. According to Entertainment Weekly, David E. Kelley (Boston Legal) is out as executive producer, and ABC is bringing in a new team. Not only that, but the entire…

Watch Out for Sarcastic Cylons

Friday’s Battlestar Galactica episode, “Hub,” reaffirmed my belief that Cylon politics are more interesting than human ones. We got to follow the rebel cylon Base Ship around, and find out even more weird things about cylon consciousness — as well as conscience. Written by former Buffy scribe Jane Espenson, who has been responsible for a…
