Greeting Geeks, In case you haven't checked it out yet, Nickelodeon has released their new Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles series. As a general disclaimer: THIS HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH MICHAEL BAY'S TURTLES PROJECT . To put it simply, it's Teen Titans meets Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (2003). To put it more complexly...well...you'll have to hit the jump for that.

Greetings Geeks, With the recent announcement that the Justice League movie is expected in the summer of 2015, the same summer that The Avengers 2 is being released, speculation is running rampant on the inter-webs as to the possibility of success for Warner Bros. and DC Comics seemingly "rushed" time table. Well...here's my take on the subject.

Our friends over at The Menagerie of Kick-Assery tackle the subject of the Generation Gap in Episode 078! Tune in and listen to Gene Green , Troy-Jeffrey Allen , That Urban Punk , and their special guests Patrick, Mr. Digital Age, Jeff Winston.

Well, this past Tuesday Sony finally released the beta for their Smash Brothers clone. In order to grab it now you must be a PS3 PSN+ account holder or own a PlayStation Vita. So far it is interesting, but I've had issues connecting to fight online. But it is a beta, so I have faith that it'll be fixed. So, why are you not play in it right now?

Greetings Geeks, News from Warner Bros. on the upcoming Justice League film and it seems that the gauntlet has been dropped. The L.A. Times is reporting that the studio is planning on beginning filming next year with a Summer 2015 release date. This puts it VERY close to the May 1st, 2015 release date for The Avengers 2! So there you have it. DC Comics is taking it to the mattresses. The studio has no plans on releasing any tie-in films before hand. Though speculation is running wild that Henry Cavill will be the Superman of choice for the film. Can the WB successfully pull off a team hero franchise without using Marvel's proven formula of releasing build up films? Time will tell. Until then, let the speculation fly!

Greetings Geeks, This is one of those interesting situations where a film can appear to have a completely different slant depending on where it's marketed. Submitted for your approval: Tai Chi Zero . A Steampunk Martial Arts epic. That's right...I said Steampunk and Martial Arts in the same sentence. Tai Chi Zero is the tale of a magically gifted martial artist and his quest to learn the elusive Chen style of kung fu. When he arrives at Chen Village, our hero discovers he has to fight to earn the Master's respect. And this is going to involve hacking a giant steampunk machine, as well as stealing some kung fu moves from the Master's daughter. Based on the Chinese trailer, I'm very excited to see this one. Based on the American trailer, I'm not. Hit the jump to see both of the trailers.

Greetings Geeks, I WILL FOLLOW YOU INTO THE DARK stars Mischa Barton and Ryan Eggold, Directed Mark Edwin Robinson. This supernatural romance thriller, is premiering at the Hollywood Film Festival. Check out the trailer after the jump!
