Briefly: Last month, the Man of Steel viral campaign got a jolt in the form of a transmission from Zod to Superman. In a similar fashion, the Man of Steel homepage has another transmission when you first enter the site. We have the same static noise, but with “You Are Not Alone” flashing word-by-word and in different languages. Given that there will supposedly be a new trailer in front of Fast and Furious 6, and that every other viral event has lead to a trailer, I think we all know where this is going. Once the trailer goes up or something else happens, we’ll let you know. Thanks to the Man of Steel fan page for the heads up.

For those who didn’t buy their special Walmart tickets, you can read the entire comic here. After the break, we’ll give a (spoilerish) review of the comic and how it might play into the movie itself.

Last month, a video went viral showing a scene from NBC’s Parks and Recreation where Patton Oswalt’s character filibusters for 8 minutes about the next Star Wars film to prevent a vote from happening. The rant brought together the worlds of Star Wars, Marvel, Greek Gods, and more. Unfortunately, that scene had to be cut from the episode for length, but the Internet took hold and really got creative. Case in point, Isaac Moores animated the rant to show just how awesome the concept is. Check out the video after the break.
One thing every sequel should strive to do is improve upon its predecessor, which is also something nearly every sequel fails to deliver on. But sometimes in order to succeed, it helps when your predecessors already started at the bottom of the barrel, leaving the subsequent sequels nowhere to go but up.
Somehow transformed into one of biggest film franchises of all time (and winner of the most ridiculous title continuity issues in film history), the Fast & Furious films have beaten the odds, and that is exactly what has happened with the latest entry in the long running series of car/heist flicks. Fast & Furious 6 has succeeded in topping its predecessors in nearly every conceivable way. Read the full review after the break. [Read more...]
