Nerds Have Their Day! Computer Engineer Barbie!

When asked to vote on Barbie’s next profession, who would have thought that the masses would vote for computer engineer? Back in January, Barbie was given the choice of surgeon, environmentalist, news achnor, architect, and computer engineer. Perhaps it was a group effort of computer engineers and nerds, or maybe Barbie enthusiasts really wanted her to be a high tech wiz, whatever the case is, Computer Engineer Barbie will be set to release on December 15 just in time for Christmas and you can pre-order it at Amazon if you are really eager for only $12.99. You can read Mattels full release after the break.

First Look at Kick-Ass 2

With the amount of underground success Kick-Ass had with its movie and the fan base the first comic rang up, it was only a matter of time before Frank Millar would give us Kick-Ass 2. But will we see a Kick-Ass 2 movie? With the low ticket sales, yet high DVD sales, Kick-Ass 2 is up in the air. Perhaps Vaughn will try again and make it independently. John Romita Jr. looks on top of his game with his artwork and Millar continues his run of witty writing.

I’m not entirely sure if this is released to your local comic shop, but /Film is saying you can pick it up. So keep reading after the break if you want to check out the first few pages of what Kick-Ass 2: Balls to the Wall looks like.

Beautiful Candice Swanepoel Pictures

Candice Swanepoel, most notedly known for her work with Victoria’s Secret, took time out of her her busy lingerie life to shoot some gorgeous pictures with the Turkish swimwear company, Zeki Triko. Inhabiting 25 countries, Zeki Triko has built a reputable company and has chosen Candice as their 2010 swimwear model.

T-He: Volkswagen’s “See Film Differently”

Volkswagen has more on their mind then just automobiles. VW has been seen sponsoring various film festivals these days and have been really taken with the  industry.  The See Film Differently campaign has been reignited after a few cute print ads that surfaced last year. The new campaign is focused on locations rather than cars within film. VW is calling it, “Turning the Camera On Locations,” visiting “a number of iconic film locations to see what effect the movies have had on the everyday lives of those who work there.” I love this idea. It is fun and the concept of imagining what real working people have to deal with when tourists visit must be a laugh and a headache.

Riding on the nostalgia train, Volkswagen has picked two infamous movie locations for TV spots focusing on Ghostbusters and When Harry Met Sally. You can check out the fun little videos after the break!

Will There be a Sin City 2? Maybe?

During a Facebook livechat for the Grindhouse movies, director Robert Rodriguez suggested that Sin City 2 would be his next project after Spy Kids 4. This lovely update comes from The Playlist who luckily caught Rodriguez in the conversation.

“Frank Miller and I are working on it. It’s slated to be the next one. But if the script is not ready, then we’ll have to move to the next one.”

Team Unicorn’s “Geek and Gamer Girls” Music Video

Team Unicorn, a group of lovely ladies promoting the existence of Gamer/Geek girls in the world, have come together to create a parody video of Katy Perry’s “California Gurls.” This is just the start of what I would assume to be an ongoing collaboration of musical numbers, skits, and fun videos expressing the love of gamer/geek girls.  The core group consists of Michele Boyd (The Guild), Clare Grant (Robot Chicken), Milynn Sarley, and Rileah Vanderbilt (Hatchet).

Their big hit debut, “G33k & G4m3r Girls” also known as the “Geek and Gamer Girls Song,” was directed by David Yarvo and premiered early September. Within a week, the music video gained over one million views on Break.com. With appearances by Seth Green (husband of Clare Grant), Stan Lee, and Battlestar Galactica’s Katee Sackhoff, full nerdery was in order. Check out the awesome video after the break!

T-He: Hilariously Creepy Snickers Halloween Commercial

Yayyy Snickers! Holidays bring the best out in advertisers, but the best holiday I could think of to be creative would be Halloween. This great new creepy Snickers ad is absolutely eerie and amusing. The costume in this commercial reminds me of the horrible horror gem The Texas Chainsaw Massacre: The Next Generation. Check out the ad spot after the break for a good time along with some great Burger King Halloween print ads from last year!

Epic New Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 1 Trailer

We’ve already seen the Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows trailer promoting both films, but now Warner Bros. has officially released an amazing new trailer focusing just on Part 1 of the incredible ending to the Harry Potter series. This new trailer is jam packed full of everything from the book and doesn’t seem to leave out any detail. The trailer provides many new clips from the movie that we haven’t seen before, maybe too many. Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 1 will be so full of awesomness that I can’t imagine how far they are going to go with Part 2.

With less than two months to go, this trailer does the book justice from what I can tell, but I am a little concerned whether things in this movie will make sense to viewers who have only seen the films. There has been a decent amount left out of the past six movies that could confuse some people going into this film, but perhaps they will sort it out with a few lines of dialogue. This movie looks intense full of  action, fast paced, and extremely well done; as the book was pretty much like reading a movie. Do you think the trailer could have revealed too much? I do, but as I have already read the book, I know what happens and am still very excited for this film.

Directed by David Yates, who has already helmed Order of the Phoenix and The Half-Blood Prince, Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 1 will be in theaters and IMAX, this November 19! Check out the full new trailer for Deathly Hallows Part 1 after the break along with over 150 screen captures from the trailer as well! Continue reading
