The Ghostbusters video game that will be released this summer is canonical, meaning that in the world of the Ghostbusters, the video game events took place in the early 90s. The Ghostbusters have become a franchise and new equipment is being tested out by you: the new equipment specialist.

I really want this game to rock.

Below the cut is a behind-the-scenes video I took from AICN an the opening cinematic via GameTrailers.com. Check ‘em out:

Cincinnati has a real life superhero, and I guess this sort of thing is a rising trend (though obviously it’s not made up of people who read Mark Millar’s Kick-Ass). The news story contains most of what you need to know.

It’s just; damn.

I like this kids’ gumption, but I’m pretty sure it’s illegal. And too early to whip out my superhero costume to start patrolling the streets of Brooklyn. If I do that I might get shot or get the swine flu.

This week in the Terminator Salvation ARG, Skynet has started talking via video (not just videos from our future anymore) and at the end of a video featuring one of Skynet’s partner companies, a series of numbers was flashed. It was a code, and together the ARG players cracked it.

The message: “Skynet Research initiate phase two judgement day.”

No surprise, then, we get our first viral video from the Skynet labs themselves, featuring a few blank-staring hosts. Creepy.

Yeah, there’s some backstory here about when the trailer was supposed to premiere (during tonight’s IMAX screenings), and stuff about what’s in the trailer that I could possibly detail, but it’s just a YouTube link.

The one bad thing about Michael Bay Transformers movies is that the previews need to be in hi def to blow your pants off. Especially when Devastator shows up to…

Ok, is anyone else starting to get a little autobiographical blurring between Rob Zombie and Halloween 2? The guy was totally into death a metal and really f*cked up story plots about houses with many corpses, but the trailer for H2, plus the above picture of mask-less, bearded Taylor Mane as Michael Myers draws the question: Is Rob Zombie inhabiting this serial killer a bit too much?

Grungy beard, dead look in the eyes, obsession with killing and death. All Zombie needs to become his version of Michael Myers is a ghostly-looking mother figure that pushes him to commit murders. At least, that’s what the trailer seems to be showing. Add this to the creepy list: Myer’s head-witch that suddenly appears in H2 is played by Sherri Moon Zombie, Rob’s wife.

Let’s hope Sherri isn’t asking him to kill people, because each Halloween movie Zombie makes see Myers become more like the director.

Kinda creepy.

Trailer after the jump…

Brothers Bloom, Rian Johnson’s newest flick after the high-school-noir of Brick, is coming at you in theaters May 15th. It’s been months since I’ve seen the film, and the marketing push could be significantly more present, but this is a fun con-man film opening two weeks after Wolverine and one week after Star Trek. You are going to have to seek this movie out, and I suggest you do (REVIEW).

Other than that, I can’t tell you much more about the flick without just re-writing my most recent bitchings abut poster design, so I’ll get to the meat and potatoes of the whole thing.

The first 7 minutes of Brothers Bloom is available on HULU (and embedded under the cut) with an introduction by Rian Johnson. The only thing that’s cool and important to look for that Rian doesn’t mention is that one of the younger Bloom brothers is played by Max Records, who will be Max in Spike Jonze’s Where The Wild Things Are.

But I don’t want to spoil this whimsical opening sequence for you, so you can just watch the rest…

Yes, I may never forgive Denise Richards for what she did to the James Bond franchise (I really didn’t care how many times a year Christmas came). That being said, occasionally she shows she has a real sense of humor. When she’s not doing that, she’s a crazy germaphobe lady. I’m not even sure I’d want to touch her funbags, honestly. It just seems like a decision that would be fun and squishy for awhile, but end in regret and shame.

Like sour gummy bears.
