İddia In Touch Weekly Dergisi'nden. Bu dergi Beckham'ın daha önce bir fahişeyle beraber olduğunu da iddia etmiş, İngiliz bu dergiye dava açmıştı. Eğer Becks davayı kazanırsa dergiden 16 milyon sterlin alacak.

Cartoon NEWS! All Star Superman date

A recent ad revealed a lot of details about the upcoming new DC Animated Original Movie, but thanks to the press release today, we know now all the details about the future release next year!

Click for larger view!

All-Star Superman will be out on Feb. 22, 2011.
It's based on a Grant Morrison story arc. The All-Star line was made for authors to play with the characters and what they represent separated from all continuity issues.
Morrison's story is a fantastic tribute to the silver age and the whole Superman legacy.

Here's the official synopsis:
"Fueled by hatred and jealousy, Lex Luthor masterminds an elaborate plot to kill the Man of Steel – and it works. Poisoned by solar radiation, Superman is dying. With weeks to live, he fulfills his life’s dreams – especially revealing his true identity to Lois Lane – until Luthor proclaims his ultimate plan to control the world with no alien hero to stop him. Powers fading, Superman engages in a spectacular deadly battle with Luthor that could truly trigger the end of Earth’s Greatest Protector. This startling and gripping DC Universe Animated Original Movie stars the voice talents of James Denton, Anthony LaPaglia, Christina Hendricks and Ed Asner."

The movie will come on both DVD and Bluray, with a special edition as well.
It doesn't seem like...gasp..there will be any new Shorts this time...??
They plan to only release those on compilations now? Or worse, they've been canceled??

Here's the list of the special features for the double-disc edition:
· Sneak Peek at Green Lantern: Emerald Knights, the next DC Universe Animated Original PG-13 Movie
· Featurette: “Superman Now” – In a moment of inspiration, Grant Morrison was provided an opportunity to revamp the Man of
Steel into something modern, something more relevant for today’s audience. This is the story of All-Star Superman – where it all
started, and what it came to be
· Two bonus episodes from Superman: The Animated Series handpicked by Bruce Timm.

The bluray will add:
· Featurette: “Incubating the Idea” – A conversation with Grant Morrison
· Audio Commentary: Bruce Timm and Grant Morrison
· All-Star Superman Virtual Comic Book 

What's the new details to keep from all that?
The feature film will be an approximate 75 minutes.
There will be a sneak peak at Green Lantern: Emerald Knights, the next DC Universe Animated Original Movie.
The Blu-ray will have a "conversation with Grant Morrison" as well as audio commentary by Timm and Morrison and an All-Star Superman digital comic book.  

And here's some pictures of both covers:


What did you do this weekend?!


Long time since I did one of those on the blog, heh?
Anyway, here's another WDYDTW!

I know it's already tuesday..but I wouldn't have been able to write this yesterday..
So, how've you been?
Did you do anything original this weekend, play anything good or read anything nice?
Let me know in the comments, don't be shy!
I know you read thus blog according to the pageviews!


I'm currently playing through the new Splatterhouse (or as I like to call it, Splatterhouse 4).
It's pretty cool, faithful to the classic ones yet still bringing in new stuff for this new generation.

I'm sure some of you are already waiting for a proper review like I did with the other ones...and I will...
When I'll finish it!
Hey, I'm not IGN, I finish the games I review! I'm not one to scream "First!!".

Anyway, you want an early impression?
So far I'm loving it.
It's pretty similar to another modern gory 3D beat 'em all I love, Evil Dead Regenration, which I wanted to also review on this blog...but won't make it in time before this new Splatterhouse (because I wanted to finish the movies and start from the first Evil Dead games before).
Meaning, it's funny, even the story is surprising good for a splatter beat 'em all.
The game mechanics may look dated if you only play modern action-RPG or sandbox type of games.. it's a pure old school beat 'em all, linear levels and cut down to stages. But I like this!
Enough with the sandbox!
Other than the gameplay itself, it's quite impressive to look at! Next gen graphics that's for sure!

More on this game later on...


I'm also currently playing through A Shadow's Tale.
It's from one of my all time favorite developers, Hudson Soft.

Known in the US as Lost in Shadow, it's an old school-like sidescrollin' platformer for the Wii.
How would I summarize it?
It has the esthetics of ICO/Shadow of the Colossus with a gameplay similar and pretty close to the original Prince of Persia/Another World/Flashback.

People may say their favorite game this year to be the new Assassin's Creed, or Kirby Epic Yarn or even the new Donkey Kong Country. But those are already popular and established franchises.
My biggest gamin' surprise of 2010 is this very one!
Fun, original and very very difficult! A game where you have to use your brains to progress!


Other than that?
I have two "oldies" I'm trying to finish too.

Star Wars: Republic Commando on the Xbox.
A very fun FPS set in the Star Wars universe where you and your clone squad has to make it through the War. Pretty kickass!
Sadly overlooked back then (that's why it never got any sequel), despite being pretty well done gameplay-wise and graphically.

The titular Delta squad will appear soon in the current CGi Clone Wars series!


And a second Star Wars videogame!
I'm also trying to finish Star Wars: Lethal Alliance on the PSP!

I do not play a lot of PSP, not because of a lack of good games, but interest...
My bro pumps a lot more hours into this little Sony handled system!

Anyway, I'm loving Lethal Alliance original story and lack of a Jedi/Trooper/Soldier/Bounty Hunter as main character. This Twi'lek can kick butt!
The story's nice too, she's the one trying to get the plans of the Death Star to the rebels!


Besides games, I've been ready a bit too much Deadpool any sane man could.
I've finally the whole complete Cable & Deadpool run, been meaning to find all the issues I missed back then...
And also most classic Deadpool issues, from Nicieza to Joe Kelly, Udon and more!

Now, more than ever, I see how bad Daniel Way writes the merc' with a mouth...sigh...


And finally, on a complete separate note, I've finally had, officially, my diploma!
FINALLY.
Gosh darn.. I had to wait a whole year, to complete a little exam (or two) while working already...anyway...

I've got like 3 different titles nows and 3 separate diploma, one for the school, an european one and an international one. Yahoo!
"Given by a Libano-Canadian University" what the...?!?
I don't know what contracts and legal procedures the school did..but this sounds...so fake??

I've already been working for SL&C Supercomm Language Training Centre for a few months now, but with this paper...heh..it doesn't change much.


And  that's all for t'day!~

Irvin Kershner - RIP

April 29, 1923 – November 27, 2010


On the night of November 27, 2010(2010-11-27), at 87, Irvin Kershner died.
He directed, amongst some other cult classics flicks 2 of my favorite flicks, Star Wars Episode V: The Empire Strikes Back and RoboCop 2.

Rest in Piece.

Everbody's dying lately :(

Here's a quote from Kershner:
"Of all the younger guys around, all the hot-shots, why me?" To which George Lucas replied,
"Well, because you know everything a Hollywood director is supposed to know, but you're not Hollywood."

And another one for the road, a great quote from this visionary director:
""I like to fill up the frame with the characters' faces. There's nothing more interesting than the landscape of the human face."

OĞUZ SAVAŞ DA EVLENDİ


Bir haber de basketboldan. Fenerbahçe Ülker'in başarılı basketbolcusu Oğuz Savaş evliler kervanına katıldı. Oğuz Savaş, Melike Demirkaya ile hayatını birleştirdi. Oğuz'un şahidi Aziz Yıldırım'dı...

EL CLASİCO'NUN ŞIKLIK YARIŞI!

Bir yanda Pep Guardiola. Esmer teni, yer yer beyazlamış kirli sakalı, ince kravatı ve genelde tercih ettiği açık renklerin aksine siyah V yakalı ince kazağıyla...

Diğer yanda ise Jose Mourinho... Yağmurlu bir Barcelona akşamında, iliklerine kadar üşeyeceğini tahmin edercesine kaşkoluna sarılan,altındaki şık takım elbiseni belli etmeyen, Armani ile özdeşlemiş kabanını eksik etmeyen...

Sizce Jose Mourinho muydu El Clasico'nun en şıkı yoksa Pep Guardiola mı?

EL CLASİCO ÖNCESİ BÜYÜK HEYECAN!

Gamin' NEWS! Yun and Yang coming to Super Street Fighter IV??

That's just a rumour, but it gives me an excuse to post these pics below of SF3 characters Yun and Yang's debut in the arcade version of Super Street Fighter IV!!


 Look at his hair! HIS HAIR!!!


Since Ono himself, creator of SF4 , said the team made sure to make SSF4 download-friendly (unlike SF4 which did offer dlc costumes but unlock those very same already present on the discs!!), people are starting to think those two fightin' brothers will join the consoles port later in 2011.

Perhaps after the last costume pack?
That would be my best bet (mid-April?)

In the meantime, check out those pics!
