The first Mighty Muggs of 2009

Thursday, January 8, 2009
Here is newest wave of Marvel Mighty Muggs (Wave 6) coming in March. It looks like Hasbro is trying a little more personality into their upcoming waves. No complaints here. Logan and Sabretooth look amazing.
On their way to the toy shelf this month are G.I. Joe (Wave 1) and Indiana Jones (Wave 2), followed close behind by Transformers (Wave 1) in February and G.I. Joe (Wave 2) in March.

RED BAND TRAILER FOR 'SLAMMIN' SALMON'

Broken Lizard is back with another serving of hot buttered comedy in the tradition of Super Troopers and Beerfest (and to a lesser extent Puddle Cruiser and Club Dread). Their latest project is Slammin' Salmon about a group of waiters in a contest to win $10, 000 for bringing in the most money in one night. Joining the five man troupe of Stolhanske, Soter, Lemme, Heffernan, and Chandrasekhar this time around are Michael Clarke Duncan and Cobie Smulders (How I Met Your Mother). Now don't forget , this is a RED BAND trailer, so it may not be suitable for all audiences -just fair warning. There is no release date for this film as of yet.

The Mask for Halloween 2

Monday, January 5, 2009
Here is a peek at the new mask for Rob Zombie's Halloween sequel tentatively titled 'H2'. From the look of things it would appear that Zombie was smart enough to go with a weathered version of the same mask instead the constant second-rate replacements they kept using in the original series. They've even added a huge gash from the bullet wound that Myers received in the first film. You've got to love continuity.

On another note, the sequel has been moved from it's original Halloween release date to a more familiar August release to mirror the first film. I guess they figure they'll get more revenue from the summer crowd than the Halloween crowd.
