Watch The Red-Band Trailer For Channing Tatum and Jonah Hill’s ’21 Jump Street’ Posted: 02 Nov 2011 09:23 PM PDT As a person who has actually never seen an episode of 21 Jump Street, I must say, while my expectations for a film adaptation weren't all that high, this red-band trailer definitely proves that they should be raised quite a bit. Directed by Chris Miller and Phil Lord, the film stars Jonah Hill and Channing Tatum, as two cops turned high school students who go on the hunt for a supplier of narcotics, who has brought in a new synthetic drug to the school [...]

New Trailer For ‘Underworld: Awakening’ Arrives Posted: 02 Nov 2011 08:20 PM PDT Everyone and their mother is hunting for a franchise to keep alive, sucking from it as much cash as humanly possible. The latest franchise getting a new entry? Underworld. Underworld: Awakening finds the cast and crew returning to the battle between vampires and lycans, this time, with something much bigger at stake. The only hybrid child ever conceived has been released, and the latter crew is looking to take it down, with the former hoping to protect it [...]

Watch Now: WWE Superstars Assault The Muppets Posted: 02 Nov 2011 05:54 PM PDT On Halloween night, pop culture icons The Muppets entered the ring of World Wrestling Entertainment for some action, entertainment, and a few laughs, but things might not have gone just how our friends suspected. In this clip here below, which I find hilarious, Bunsen and Beaker are developing a special energy drink. But when Beaker is on his way to deliver the drink to comedy-oriented wrestler Santino Marella, the villainous Christian shows up and pours out the potion they were concocting and assaults the fuzzy lab assistant [...]

Interview: Fantasy Author R.A. Salvatore, Part 1 Posted: 02 Nov 2011 05:00 PM PDT This is the first of two articles based upon an interview I did with R.A. Salvatore, New York Times bestselling author. In this one, we explore his take on ebooks, publishing, and the world at large. I can only say that I was so excited to be offered the interview and just about wet myself during it. This man is cool. And not just in a nerdy, book-loving kind of way. I mean, he is passionate about everything he does. Needless to say, this is officially a highlight in my life. Not just a quick hello and scoring his signature...this was an hour of just the two of us chatting about a wide variety of things. I've been reading his work for twenty years and getting a chance to speak candidly with him was awesome. We discussed his take on electronic books and media, his preference between digital and physical books, and even why he hates talk radio! So without further ado, I present to you answers to questions you didn't even know you wanted to ask [...]

Comic Review: The Goon #36 Posted: 02 Nov 2011 04:00 PM PDT The Goon #36 Created by Eric Powell Art by Eric Powell Colors by Dave Stewart Dark Horse Comics Release Date: November 2, 2011 Cover Price: $3.50 It feels like The Goon creator Eric Powell is always walking a thin line. Powell is straddling an edge where on one side there are storylines and dialogue that are so insanely ridiculous that no one in their right mind would find them readable. On the other side of this line is harmless, by the book comic writing, there's action, there's gags, and there's beautiful women wearing next to nothing. In The Goon #36 Powell finds himself directly between these two points. With the pure madness and clever writing of The Goon #36, Powell proves he does not need Goon and Franky beating the tar our of some poor soul to make a compelling book, but worry not, there's still plenty of the rough stuff [...]

Netflix Review Feature Coming Soon Posted: 02 Nov 2011 03:00 PM PDT Geeks Of Doom has a long tradition in bringing our readers good quality reviews in a variety of media. From comics, books, films, and music, we've always done our best to give you our honest thoughts and opinions, even if they don't fall within the contemporary hivemind opinions that permeate across the web. And in the ever-changing landscape of media formats and availability, it's time that tradition continued to reflect the latest accessible releases. In a world that now sees online streaming, or VoD (Video On-Demand seems to be the cliché buzzword at the moment) becoming a dominant wave in the future, one of the leaders in this field is Netflix [...]

Comic Review: Green Hornet #19 Posted: 02 Nov 2011 01:46 PM PDT Green Hornet #19 Plot by Phil Hester Script by Ande Parks Pencils by Igor Vitorino Colors by Ivan Nunes Letters by Marshall Dillion Covers by Phil Hester, Jonathan Lau, Brian Denham Dynamite Entertainment Release Date: November 2nd, 2011 Cover Price: $3.99 Another great, great issue of The Green Hornet! This title literally keeps getting better with each issue. I never expected this title to take on its own mythos, let alone explore and develop it to this degree. Writer Ande Parks is really hitting his stride on this title. This issue is largely the villains origin story and Parks manages to pull off something rarely done-make the reader care about and despise the villain at the same time. Parks does a fantastic job bringing real characterization to this book, and I hope that he keeps it up. On a side note, his writing here makes me all that much more excited for his The Lone Ranger comic launching in January [...]

The GoD List: Comics For November 2, 2011 Posted: 02 Nov 2011 10:57 AM PDT Each and every week "From the timeline 1690" MK2Fac3 and "12th Level Vice President In His D&D Game" Henchman21 read a lot of comics. Seriously you guys, a lot of comics. Maybe too many comics. I mean, it is possible… theoretically. They look forward to some more than others, I mean, who doesn't? So, let's take a look into the depths of their pull lists, grab some comics, and we'll let YOU know what the top books to look forward to are for the week of November 2, 2011. Single issues and trades, they're all here. In This week's The GoD List, the Hunter Camp from the normal Earth timeline is off reading Casanova: Luxuria, so replacing him this week is none other than the Hunter Camp of Timeline 1690, and while some might call me an "evil" version, I see it as nothing of the sort. You see, I like some of the finer things in comics. You won't be seeing any DC Comics or professional wrestling references on the list this week, you see, because Timeline 1690 Hunter only reads more obscure comic titles. And while you'll get your normal Marvel and GI Joe fare from Henchman21, things may seem a little skewed this week. Think you know how this list will end? I doubt it. Continue on with this week's GoD List [...]

Joel Edgerton To Star In ’300′ Sequel Posted: 02 Nov 2011 09:36 AM PDT With a star-making turn in this year's Warrior as well as a role in The Thing, actor Joel Edgerton has seen his star rise to insane heights in 2011. And it's only going up. The actor is in talks to star in the upcoming film, 300: Battle Of Artemisia. Joining films like The Great Gatsby and The Odd Life Of Timothy Green, Artemisia becomes just another 2012 film that Edgerton will make his indelible mark on [...]

Comic Review: Peanuts #0 Posted: 02 Nov 2011 07:00 AM PDT Peanuts #0 Written by Ron Zorman, Vicki Scott, Charles M. Schulz Art by Ron Zorman, Vicki Scott & Charles M Schulz Inks by Paige Braddock Colors by Lisa Moore Cover Design by Iain R. Morris Cover by Charles M. Schulz Kaboom! Studios Release Date: November 2nd, 2011 Cover Price: $1.00 This introductory issue to Kaboom's ongoing Peanuts monthly features two new stories and four classic Peanuts strips. Realistically, maybe they shouldn't have packaged new stories with the classic ones. At times, the difference is pretty jarring. Now, let's be honest here. Trying to follow the work of Peanuts creator Charles Schulz has got to be a daunting, to say the least, task. Schulz not only created these beloved characters, he drew every single Peanuts strip for almost 50 years [...]

Comics Deal: Iron Man Director Of SHIELD TPB Posted: 02 Nov 2011 06:30 AM PDT The comic book deal of the day over at Things From Another World today is Iron Man Director Of SHIELD trade paperback for only $5.99 (that's 60% off the list price of $14.99). Note - This deal is valid only for today, Wednesday, November 2, 2011, til 11:59pm PST while supplies last (and they won't last, so hurry!).
