#AwesomeCosplay Pics of the day: Cir-El
"Supergirl" Cir-El is my favorite! (here's more proof of it!)
What a sight it is to find someone cosplaying the tomboy-ish girl of steel for a change!
She is cosplayed wonderfully here by rukiku from deviantart.
And I must say, lovely pic!
You captured her perfectly, well done on the costume and all ~<3

#AwesomeCosplay Pics of the day: George Pérez' Worlds’ Finest
Straight from the George Perez' fanclub on facebook.
Here's a fantastic pic of George Pérez alongside DCnU Huntress and Power Girl cosplayers.
Fun fact, Huntress was portrayed here by the very same model Pérez use for the character - Margie Cox.
Though Power Girl here is cosplayed by Heather Kelley. (the model he uses PG is called JC Marie).

Time for another awesome cosplay for the day.
We're back with Aigue-Marine and her amazing cosplay skills.

Check out this outstanding take on Stephanie Brown's Robin costume:
She does look the part - and quite lovely if I might add.

#AwesomeCosplay Pics of the day: Rescue
Speaking of "lady Iron Man", here's one pretty awesome cosplay of Rescue, the actual canon "female" Iron Man from the recent Iron Man comics.
It's pretty difficult to find any representation or talks of Pepper Potts' armored persona on the internet, even more so cosplays.
But whenever you find some dedicated fans who put some work into actual Iron Man cosplays, it's pretty often outstanding!
Awesome work!

#RIP #RayBradbury
Ray Bradbury in 2012
Renowned author Ray Bradbury passed away this morning at the age of 91 in Los Angeles.
Ray Bradburyin 1975
He was the fantastic writer behind such classics as The Martian Chronicles, Something Wicked This Way Comes, and many more!
I will always remember reading Fahrenheit 451 for a school assignment a loooooooooong while ago. It stuck in head for many years to come. Such an intriguing read.
You will be sorely missed, Mr. Bradbury.
May you rest in peace!

#Recap - Prometheus
So yesterday evening I went with my bro to see Ridley Scott's Prometheus - which is already out over here.
And here's my lil' recap, as usual.
Let me start right away with this.
How was the movie? Great...but...
First up, I just want to say I love watching big science fiction movies with big budget, the way Hollywood doesn't seem to like that much anymore nowadays.
It was big, it was loud, it was creepy and fascinating all at the same time.
Sure I'm sure fanboys and some other nerds will nitpick. Heck even from purely a movie standpoint there's some problems with it.
But I liked it.
The move was basically the myth of Prometheus - adapted as a scifi film.
Without spoiling anything, you know, "taking the light from the gods" and playing "god" creating life, etc.
The question here's is what are the consequence for either man or "the original engineers" (aka Alien's "Space Jockeys"). Yes, it's a bit Lovecraftian , and !SPOILERS!they even got a Chtulu-like creature in here at some point.
Like Predators before, 20Th Century Fox didn't take much risks in making a new entry in the series and simply disguised this new modern take on the original film for a modernday audience.
That's the secret behind this movie.
Predators was simply Predator 1's jungle and characters transposed to an alien planet.
Prometheus basically Alien 1 but instead of a Xenomorph (...or not?) we have a Space Jockey/Engineer this time around.
The movie follows the same basic structure.
Crew arrives on mysterious planet, explores ship, infection, monster on rampage, final climatic fight aboard the lifesupport ship with monster(s). The End...or is it?
The movie serves as a prequel to Alien but explore some new territory Ridly Scott always wanted to explore...before other directors/writers and Fox started following-up his original classic with the same character (Rpiley) and monster (the Xenos).
In a way this movie's the real sequel (or rather prequel )to the themes and universe of the same film...but because of all the stuff that happened in-between (sequels, games, comics, pop culture, etc.) this movie might seem a bit off or apart.
Mr. Scott was already talking about making a third one, this time closer to the events of Alien, either in-between both films or long after everything.
I liked the fact he went free around with the concepts, not taking care if story elements, details or other "continuity issues" worked together. (with the old Mr. Weyland from the AVP films for example, which was such a bad movie anyway...)
He actually got Damon Lindelof from Bad Robot (and Lost) to rewrite the script as less tied-in with Alien. Which is great to explore the same universe.
The picture was so perfect! I missed watching a new blockbuster from such a good director, nothing like those Michael Bays and other Paul Andersons....
Every screen, every angle, every scenery was well presented and well thought.
The musical score was a bit... on the downside.
The score from the previous Alien movies were so iconic and perfect. Here it got either a bit too generic or too similar. The overall tone was closer to the action-filled epic sequel Aliens.
But I'd have preferred something closer to Alien 1's atmospheric and oppressive sound.
The characters were a bit generic as well, not well defined or interest. Which made every death a bit unimportant.
I know some disliked her, but I actually kinda liked Noomi Rapace in the main role.
Her love story/motivations/boyfriend on the other hand...
The crew was just a bunch of douches mostly.
Besides my hero, Capt. Janek, who was awesome and easily the most likable of the bunch!
In the end, it was an highly awaited movie with great hype and all.
I found it great.
But...
So much more could have been done with it.
As a movie, it was fantastic...but a bit too simple coming from Ridley Scott, who usually nails such interesting and original characters in his films (see the fantastic Matchstick Men)
As an Alien movie...well despite what you might hear online, I found it much better. Exploring previously unexplored elements turned out better here that in The Thing prequel. Because the tone was the same here and it didn't feel that cheap. I loved that Space Jockey-ship. While "The Thing"'s spaceship was such a letdown...
I loved the creatures, the creepiness of it all. The "original of life" storyline. Big fun science fiction.
But the movie could easily have been shorter/better handled. The characters more interesting. And music more appropriate.
And here's my lil' recap, as usual.
Warning! I'll try to stay light in the spoilers areas, if possible. In any case, don't read this right away if you fear I might spoil any of the movie's many surprises....

#FanFilm Friday - Batgirl: Spoiled (Teaser)
DC might be ignoring Stephanie Brown - ex-Batgirl, but that won't stop the fans from keeping the character alive and kickin'!
One of the most intriguing fanfilm projects I've seen lately is this upcoming Batgirl: Spoiled short film!
You can keep an eye on this BatgirlTheWebSeries youtube channel because things might quickly start up over there soon.
The idea is to give Steph her due, in the form of a lil' non-profit webseries featuring her adventures as the 3rd Batgirl.
And here's a little teaser trailer:
This is looking pretty nice, and even some nice TV quality-like, much better than the beginning season of Smallville already! How come it's not even official?!
See that, DC/Warner, this is the kind of stuff we want!
Also, bring back STEPH!!
#FanFilm Friday - "20th anniversary"
For today's #FanFilm Friday post, here's something very special.
Easily the best 3D/CGi animation I've ever seen, and it's not even an actual movie!
From fans to fans.
Enjoy:
Gorgeous animation and very video!
Loved the pacing, and fun atmosphere specially.
This hommage to Dave Stevens was realized by "John Banana".
It was presented for last year's 20th anniversary off The Rocketeer. (about a ~year ago more or less)
This video's been getting a lot of praise from professional and/or fans of Dave.

"I laughed, I cried. Dave would have loved this wonderful hommage that totally captures the warmth, action and humor of his creation. Thank you for making this!"This is some professional-quality animation. I doubt an actual series/movie would hold a candle to this!
William Stout - williamstout.com/
Dave would have been impressed. It should be a televison series!
Paul De Meo - Rocketeer movie co-writer & co-screenwriter
I was fairly close with Dave (we worked together on a number of projects) and I know he would have dug this...
