7 Snow White and the Huntsman clips show off the Evil Queen’s secret weapon

Holy crap do we want to ride the giant white stag Kristen Stewart is petting in these new Snow White and the Huntsman clips. The more fantasy elements director Rupert Sanders starts revealing, the more we’re starting to swoon over tiny green pixies and The Queen’s magical army of broken glass people. Even though this…

Muppets illustrations reenact classic tales and legends

The Muppets may have just returned to the big screen this past fall, but BOOM! Studios has kept Kermit and the gang in business, both in The Muppet Show comics and in comics where the Muppets retell existing stories. And David Petersen’s Muppet mashup covers are delightful just on their own. Petersen is perhaps best…

These incredible posters illustrate two stories with a single image

At first glance, this looks like a poster for Harry Potter, but is there something more going on? These posters illustrate famous stories with minimalist images, but hide a second story inside. Using a technique that evokes the Rubin vase illusion, Colombian advertising agency Lowe/SSP3 created these images for the Colsubsidio Book Exchange. Come with…

Japanese sex museums are where your sanity goes to die (NSFW)

We’ve witnessed the charms of Japanese erotica museums when they’re entirely shuttered. It turns out they can be way more mind-warping when open. http://io9.com/5895807/there-are-few-things-creepier-than-an-abandoned-japanese-sex-museum-nsfw Here are some choice scenes from the city of Beppu’s hihōkan, which apparently closed (but you can still tour on YouTube for posterity’s sake). During its sexy heyday, visitors could behold…

Mirror Mirror: Better Than Its Awful Trailers, But Still Garbage

We’ve all seen the campy trailers for Mirror Mirror, featuring Julia Roberts as the Evil Queen. The TV spots, in particular, have looked kind of embarrassing, full of “little people” pot shots and dated gags. But the actual movie? Is surprisingly fun, even if none of the characters is developed beyond the hemlines of their…

Dumpy, Deafy, and 40 other dwarves who didn’t make the cut for Disney’s Snow White

When Disney began drafting dwarf names for 1937’s Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs, they first compiled this short list of potential dwarven candidates. Doc was added to the roster later, and as you can see below, some of these names would’ve made Disney’s first theatrical animated release an unmitigated train wreck. If I were…

New Snow White and the Huntsman trailer is like Middle-earth with Dopey and Grumpy

We saw these scenes from Snow White and The Huntsman at Wondercon on Saturday — now behold the latest trailer for director Rupert Sanders’ dark fairy tale. I’m getting a 1980s fantasy vibe, not unlike Legend but without the power ballads. If I were a savvy studio executive, I’d greenlight a Trixter cover of “Whistle…

Watch Tarsem Singh’s beautiful, Bollywood channeling dance-off in Mirror Mirror

We’ve always suspected that Tarsem Singh’s take on Snow White would end in a great big colorful joygasm. Behold the variegated explosion in these five clips from Mirror Mirror, including a rollicking remix of Googoosh’s “I Believe in Love!” This fairy tale just looks ridiculously fun. Mirror Mirror will hit theaters March 30.

Even though though the slapsticky Snow White flick Mirror Mirror reminds us more of Singing In The Rain’s out of sync “Dueling Cavalier” than a dark fairy tale, we’re still completely enthralled by the costumes and bright color palette. Just check out this new collection of gorgeous stills from the set. Let’s hope they payed…

When they can’t get crimefighting work, superheroes turn to menial jobs

When times are tough, they affect everyone — even superheroes. In this photo series, superheroes and Disney characters find themselves destitute and in unexpected jobs — pumping gas, washing windows, and walking the streets. The point of Benjamin Bechet’s I am Winnie the Pooh photo series isn’t to comment on these characters; after all, Batman…

Disney moving forward with yet another Snow White film — this one with Saoirse Ronan and kung-fu

In a world that’s already jammed with Once Upon a Time, Mirror, Mirror, and Snow White and the Huntsman, is there room for another Snow White in the world? Disney is hoping there is, although they’re willing to sweeten the pot with Hanna star Saoirse Ronan and martial arts. Disney has actually had Order of…

We were all aboard the Snow White and the Huntsman’s brand of dark fantasy, laced with Willow-esque fantasies and actually evil Queens.

After decades out of the limelight, suddenly Snow White is everywhere. What woke this particular tale out of its coma?

A ton of Disney Princesses, drawn in the “comic book style”

Some of you may remember Danger Girl artist J. Scott Campbell’s first round of fairy tale princesses, which depicted Cinderella and Snow White as heroines who were allergic to every textile invented. For his new 2012 Fairy Tale Fantasies calendar, Scott Campbell— whose style can only be described as “uranium-enriched cheesecake” — has now drawn…
