In the "Army of Thieves" prequel to Zack Snyder's "Army of the Dead", small-town bank teller Dieter gets drawn into the adventure of a lifetime when a mysterious woman recruits him to join a crew of Interpol’s most wanted criminals, attempting to heist a sequence of legendary, impossible-to-crack safes across Europe.

Featured above is the teaser poster, while the teaser trailer dropped Sunday as part of ComicCon@Home, in anticipation of the film's premiere on Netflix somewhen as yet announced. And Yes, there is a new "Army of Snyderverse" continues...!





In the video featured below, icon Sarah Michelle Gellar takes a look back at her "Action Hero" evolution on film and TV (for "Netflix Geeked"), from "Buffy the Vampire Slayer" to "Daphne" in Scooby-Doo, "Seventh Sister" in "Star Wars Rebels" to "Teela" in the animated "Masters of the Universe: Revelations (Part One)" series (currently streaming on Netflix). The memories are real, folks...!





Margot Robbie, John Cena & James Gunn talk to guest host Anthony Anderson (ON "Jimmy Kimmel Live") about their new movie The Suicide Squad coming to theaters & HBO Max ... while the clip - arguably A SPOILER - seen below features Nathan Fillion's T.D.K., aka The Detachable Kid, getting "hands-on" in on the action, followed by King Shark (voice by Sylvester Stallone) thinking of a "Fake Mustache Disguise"!








Directors @JamesGunn (THE SUICIDE SQUAD) and @DavidAyerMovies (SUICIDE SQUAD) interacts with folks on Twitter, and I thought it wa \s fun thing to share. Not only do directors work on their movies, now they have to self-promote and fact-check, needing to dedicate time to interact with viewers, and get shit on by folks too. Man, tough gig tho - I mean it!



Day One - Principal Photography for Marvel el Studios' "ANTMAN AND THE WASP: QUANTUMANIA" has started, courtesy of a tweet from director Peyton Red. Told ya: "BUSY".



Featured below is the Official Trailer for Season 6 of LEGENDS OF TOMORROW (airing Sundays at 8/7c on The CW). Produced by Berlanti Productions in association with Warner Bros. Television, DC’s Legends of Tomorrow is based on the characters from DC and has been renewed for a seventh season. I was such a huge fan of the earlier reasons too... then I stopped watching, sorry :p



Check out video clip featured below and get a sneek peek into how the bloody VFX were brought to life in the new horror movie BLOOD RED SKY (Watch Trailers) - since streaming on Netflix, with both BRS and LEGENDS starring Dominic Purcell - whom first saw in BLADE: TRINITY and subsequently on PRISON BREAK!



We get glimpse of the animation for "Samurai Rabbit: The Usagi Chronicles" (previously announced in mid-July 2020) - as inspired by Stan Sakai's "Usagi Yojimbo" - in the following "Comic-Con@Home 2021" virtual discussion panel (skip to 34:55 mark to watch if you so please)...I suppose I might post an individual post with screengrabs later, maybe...



Experience the future with BLADE RUNNER: BLACK LOTUS — an Adult Swim and Crunchyroll original animated series inspired by the award-winning and critically lauded Blade Runner movie franchise, coming this fall.



This thirteen episode series is directed by Shinji Aramaki and Kenji Kamiyama and produced by Alcon Entertainment and animation studio Sola Digital Arts, with Shinichiro Watanabe serving as a creative producer. The aesthetics remind me of 80s computer printed comicbooks whose name thankfully I cannot remember, but... :p



Featured above is a "exclusive clip" for "Batman: The Long Halloween, Part Two" from DC ... and I realised I've yet to publish "Part One" as I've yet to complete my post...! How time flies... :p

From New York Times bestselling author Mariko Tamaki (Laura Dean Keeps Breaking Up with Me, Harley Quinn: Breaking Glass) and artist Yoshi Yoshitani (Zatanna and the House of Secrets) comes a story about Mandy, the daughter of super-famous superhero Starfire.



"I am Not Starfire is a story about teenagers and/as aliens; about knowing where you come from and where you are going; and about mothers." This is also the Sign of the Times, in a Woke and Inclusive Generation and cannot be denied. I was flipping thru Mart Wolfman and George Perez "Teen Titans" comicbooks from when it started and the responsive folks had, and that was before the Age of Social Media...! Same Same, different era, IMHO...



Weta Workshop has unveiled a number of licensed character releases in their MINI EPICS and MICRO EPICS lines, including "Stranger Things", 1986's "Labryinth", "Dark Crystal" and more! Further featured HERE on TOYSREVIL...!
