Robert Kirkman

As Season 2 of AMC‘s The Walking Dead continues to film in Atlanta, Georgia this summer for its October premiere, it is no surprise that we are seeing a sudden influx of behind-the-scenes featurettes for the show. Last week, we were able to take a brief look at the first day of shooting the second season (which will be 13 episodes), and yesterday saw the premiere of the teaser (Update: Teaser was a fake).

Today, we get a fun look at Robert Kirkman (creator of The Walking Dead comic series and co-producer of the TV series) roaming around the set for the next season making sure everything is in order. Take a look below!

Photos of various Dwarf characters from The Hobbit films have been popping up online in the last couple of days. First, we saw the first official photo of Jed Brophy as Nori, Adam Brown as Ori and Mark Hadlow as Dori. Now, along with that photo, Yahoo! Movies has debuted a photo of John Callen as Oin and Peter Hambleton as Gloin, the father of Gimli from The Lord of the Rings trilogy. These are just a few of the dwarves that accompany young Bilbo Baggins on his epic journey across Middle Earth to reclaim the lost Dwarf Kingdom of Erebor from the dragon Smaug. You can view the photos after the jump!

Walking Dead S2

A teaser trailer for the highly-anticipated second season of AMC’s The Walking Dead TV series has made its way online. While it’s not much, it definitely does what a teaser trailer should do, which is to show us very little and still manage to get us excited. Cannot wait to see what is in store for us when the series returns this October! Hit the jump to check it out!

Update: The Walking Dead creator Robert Kirkman has reported that this trailer, while cool, is actually fan-made and not an official teaser for the show. Hopefully we’ll get a real trailer soon!

transformers 3_01

Watching Transformers: Dark of the Moon is almost like viewing two different films. On the one hand, much of the first half feels like it is filled with unused scenes from the last film, Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen, containing unbalanced and unnecessary humor, useless side characters and, of course, an over-emphasis on ridiculously hot, scantily clad women that seem to only exist in Michael Bay films (seriously, I don’t believe Rosie Huntington-Whiteley actually exists in real life). But on the other hand, the last half of the film washes all those problems away when Bay delivers some of the best sci-fi action ever committed to film by giving us the ultimate war between the Autobots and Decepticons in the middle of downtown Chicago. It really is an exhilarating triumph in terms of action and excitement in a movie, especially in 3-D, and the story of how it all goes down is actually intriguing and quite dark to say the least. Ladies and gentlemen, total “Bayhem” is in full effect here and is definitely worth the price of admission (and maybe even some popcorn).
