Artist Derek Eads has created an wonderful minimalistic infographic showing the many faces of actor Gary Oldman. No word on if prints will be made available, but if they are they will likely be on Eads’ screened shop.

Cool Stuff: Concert Posters for Fictional Bands
Posted on Monday, October 25th, 2010 by Germain Lussier
While fictional bands like Spinal Tap get all the love, others like The Beets, Jesse and the Rippers, Drive Shaft and Dr. Funke’s 100% Natural Good Time Family Band Solution are regularly shunned. That’s probably because Spinal Tap actually performs while the others are composed of actors or animations in well known television series, but that doesn’t mean fans can’t subtly celebrate their love of Doug, Full House, Lost or even Arrested Development with these clever concert posters by Fernando Reza. His Tuned In Series is now on sale and you can see all four prints and get links to purchase them after the break. Read More »
Mad Men fans have long been championing star Jon Hamm to star as Clark Kent in a new Superman film. We were originally told by director Zack Snyder that the movie will probably feature the character’s early days, and reports claimed that David Goyer‘s script follows Clark Kent, a journalist traveling the world “trying to decide if he should, in fact, even become Superman.” We assumed this meant that Superman would likely be played by a young actor, but recently Armie Hammer slipped that they’re looking for a middle-aged actor for the role. And yes, Snyder directed Hamm in his last film, Suckerpunch. Hamm has said that he’d love to discuss the possibility “if the powers that be are thinking” of casting an older Clark Kent.
We have no idea if Armie’s claim is true, and we have no clue if Hamm really has any shot at the project — but it’s fun to entertain the possibility. /Film reader Nevil S sent over a mock-up of Hamm in the Superman costume. While the old school threads will most likely be updated in the new film, this gives us an idea of what Hamm might look like in the red and blue tights. Hit the jump to see the quick photo mock-up.
His name must be The Darth Knight, but his secret identity is Bruce Skywalker. I must admit, the similarities between Batman and Darth Vader’s costume’s have somehow escaped me in the past. Erin Fife’s mash-up of the two iconic dark pop culture icons is dated 2007, but has only begun to spread around the web this week. Found via Reddit, check out the full piece of fan artwork, after the jump.
What if Pixar’s Toy Story wasn’t just a story about toys, but instead an action film about a Spaceman, a Cowboy and their friends? It might resemble this awesome piece of fan art created by UK artist Sean Izaakse. See the full design after the jump.

In response to the oil spill disaster, Spanish website The Blog of Chibiboto published a bunch of proposed movie posters for Finding Nemo 2, a co production of Disney/Pixar and BP. The film’s title should probably be called “Saving Nemo”. Check out a couple other poster designs after the jump.
GottaBeCarl has created an awesome image re-imagining all of the characters of Futurama in the X-Men universe. Carl explains:
A friend of mine suggested one day that it would be cool to see the characters of Futurama as X-Men and so I drew him Fry as Cyclops. For some reason I couldn’t just stop there…and what came of it was a pretty extensive illustration with some of the most obscure characters from both the X-Men and Futurama universes.
Can you spot them all? Check out the full image after the jump.
VOTD: The Original Tron Gets Modernized Fan-Created Trailer
Posted on Tuesday, March 30th, 2010 by Russ Fischer
There’s a real art to cutting a good trailer. While the basics have remained the same over the years, some aspects of that art have changed greatly in the past two decades. Watch the original trailer for Tron, for example, and you’ll see a good tease for the film and the story, but one that is very much locked into the pulse of technology and storytelling common at the time.
In response to that, a fan has cut a new trailer for the 1982 film. It’s Tron as it might be sold today. The work is quite good; check it out after the break. Read More »
