    'The LEGO Movie' Trailer has hit the web

    In 2014, the world’s greatest heroes will join forces for the biggest movie ever.

    A serious boast? Not if you’re the blockheads (and bodies) that are Lego folks. The first trailer is out for The Lego Movie — written and directed by the Cloudy With A Chance Of Meatballs/21 Jump Street duo of Phil Lord & Christopher Miller — and there’s no shortage of big-name licensees to be seen including Superman, Batman, Wonder Woman, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, even the 2002 NBA All-Stars, featuring Shaquille O’Neal in a period-correct No. 34 Lakers jersey. You might have heard of some of the folks in the voice cast of the Warner Bros-Village Roadshow toon: Chris Pratt, Will Ferrell, Elizabeth Banks, Will Arnett, Nick Offerman, Alison Brie, Charlie Day, Liam Neeson and Morgan Freeman. Hit the break for the trailer.

    'Riddick' International trailer is out

    Pitch Black came out in 2000, one year before The Fast and the Furious. But while the latter has since spawned five sequels, the former is only now preparing to put its second sequel in theaters. Still, better late than never, right?

    Directed by David Twohy, Riddick once again stars Vin Diesel as the Furian warrior introduced in Pitch Black. Left for dead on a desolate planet, he soon finds himself fighting off both vicious alien predators and ruthless bounty hunters (played by the likes of Katee Sackhoff, Jordi Mollà, and Bokeem Woodbine). We’ve already gotten a taste of the film thanks to a domestic trailer and teaser, but the new international promo packs in some new footage. 

    There’s also a new Comic Con poster for the film, straight from Vin Diesel himself. Check out both after the break.

    'Mad Max' upcoming video game gets a trailer

    About time. Though a 1990 NES game brought ideas from The Road Warrior to Nintendo systems, and development has been teased over the years on a new Mad Max game, there hasn’t been a proper revival of George Miller‘s post-apocalyptic series in gaming. Until now.

    At E3 a new Max Max game was announced that will put players in the shoes of Max Rockatansky. Since this must be tied to the release of Miller’s fourth film in the series, Mad Max: Fury Road, the game trailer below probably gives a good idea of what we can expect Tom Hardy to look like as Max. Not that we had much reason to doubt what he’d look like — it’s a pretty simple character template. Hit the break for the game trailer.

    REVIEW: 'Man of Steel' DC Comics Reign Today

    Man of Steel is an enormous summer blockbuster, an ongoing continuation of the comic book expansion in modern cinema, and a movie that is as mighty and powerful as its superhero. Zack Synder and Christopher Nolan have teamed up to produce not only an impeccable superhero movie, but also a movie that is able to stand on its own feet as one that renders a tremendous amount of success. While we have seen Superman many times over the years, the goal was not only to keep us coming, but of course enjoy the experience. That being said, to say Man of Steel was a success in its mission is as true as Superman’s suit is blue.

    Nintendo announces the next game in the Mario franchise: 'Super Mario 3D World'

    If you are a Wii U owner or just a general fan of Nintendo, you will be happy to learn that company head Satoru Iwata announced this morning that there will be a new entry in the Mario franchise dubbed Super Mario 3D World. The game reunites Mario and Luigi with Princess Peach and Toad (a la Super Mario Bros. 2) for a full, open world multiplayer experience. And much like the unique attributes they had in that second series installment, each character once again brings players special abilities, like Toad's fast run, Luigi's high jumps, Princess Peach's floating jumps and the all-around average Mario. According to Iwata-san, Super Mario 3D World is slated for a December release and will be available on the eShop, as well as in traditional brick-and-mortar shops. But knowing Nintendo's predilection for perfection, it's entirely possible that date could slip into early 2014. Hit the break link for the gameplay trailer courtesy of Escapist Magazine.

    'Metal Gear Solid V' gets extended debut trailer as PS4 version confirmed

    We have known for some time that the Xbox One will carry the next game in the Metal Gear franchise, but yesterday we were treated to a debut trailer that apparently was not meant to be the real attraction. Today, Konami announced that Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain will also come to the PS4. With the announcement comes an extended version of the trailer from yesterday. Also, it is worth noting that within the press release there was no mention of Ground Zeroes, which makes us think there is much more to come from the continuation of this franchise. Hit the break link for the extended debut trailer.

    New trailer for 'The Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug' hits the interwebs

    Bilbo Baggins, Gandalf and Thorin Oakenshield will continue their journey on December 13 as Peter Jackson‘s second Hobbit film, The Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug, hits theaters. It’s the sequel to last year’s hit An Unexpected Journey and the prequel to 2014′s There And Back Again. Together, they’ll bridge the gap to The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring.

    In the second chapter of The Hobbit, the band of dwarves inch closer to the Lonely Mountain and a showdown with the dangerous dragon Smaug, who long ago stole the wealth of the dwarves for himself. The first trailer for the film has now been released. It gives us an idea of just how far Jackson is pushing this second film, which will introduce characters played by Evangeline Lilly, Luke Evans, Benedict Cumberbatch among others. Hit the break link for the trailer.

    Sony's E3 2013 press conference shows off a console that outdoes XBOX One in almost every way

    Before yesterday's E3 keynotes from Sony and Microsoft, opinion was split on the very different paths each company is taking. Some found the PlayStation 4 the more appealing proposal on paper — a more powerful, developer-friendly box that seemed to have been created with gamers' best interests in mind. Others, however, were more impressed with the Xbox One's expansive entertainment options and Microsoft's audacious plan to take over the living room. Now that both companies have played their hands at the biggest gaming show of the year, where do they stand?

    Sony in my opinion has come out on top. The PlayStation 4, while perhaps a more conventional product, appears to beat the Xbox One in just about every area that really counts.

    Apple announces new Mac Pro with some amazing specs

    It's been brewing for a while, and now Apple has finally redesigned its flagship pro desktop. The 2013-era Mac Pro has been totally redesigned with a new, cylindrical chassis and vastly upgraded internals that have been designed to last for "(another) 10 years." At the center of the new Mac Pro is a 12-core, 256-bit Intel Xeon E5 processor with 1,866MHz DDR3 RAM capable of 60GB/s data transmission. Following the trend of the MacBooks, the new power tower uses PCIe-based flash storage, and so pro users will be relying upon four USB 3.0 and six Lightning 2.0 ports (that can take up to 6 devices per port with 20Gbps throughput) for expandability. Fortunately, for those of you who intend on placing the hardware beneath your desk, the expansion ports light up to help you find your connections in the gloom. Other connections include HDMI-out 1.4, dual gigabit Ethernet jacks, WiFi 802.11ac, Bluetooth 4.0 and the usual pair of 3.5mm audio in and out ports.

    This machine is also the first Mac that'll ship with dual AMD FirePro GPUs as standard, which'll support 4K displays. Of course, the most striking change is in the design, which occupies 1/8th the volume of the current Mac Pro and stands 9.9-inches tall and 6.6-inches wide. The chance is thanks to a new thermal core, a triangular air duct that runs through the center of the hardware -- with one huge fan mounted at the top. Presumably, this new model has also been tweaked to conform to new regulations concerning electrical shielding, meaning that the hardware can finally return to European shores when it arrives later in the year -- at a (probably high) price that's still to be decided.

    Apple unveils iOS 7 with complete UI redesign, coming this fall

    Tim Cook has just taken the wraps off of the latest upgrade to Apple's mobile operating system (after pumping up the crowd with some shimmering stats for the current OS, naturally), and as expected, the company's maintained its familiar naming scheme, introducing the world to iOS 7. Cook called it the biggest change to the operating system since the introduction of the iPhone, bold words supported by new features and a new design that managed to get a visible gasp from the room full of developers when shown off in a promo video.

    The new designs start on the lock screen, featuring a much thinner lettering. The icons have been redesigned and are flatter as expected. The company's also updated the typography and added new animation and transparency for images. The design goes edge to edge on the display, taking more advance of real estate. The Desktop moves as you do, creating "a new experience of depth." The company only focused on design during the intro video, but that was certainly enough to get the crowd excited.
