It seems like every week we get new goodies leading up to the releases of “The Dark Knight Rises” and “Prometheus”. This past week was no different. If you haven’t had a chance to see the “Prometheus” International Trailer you are really missing out. Ridley Scott’s upcoming sci-fi picture is still shrouded in mystery and each tidbit of information we get adds another piece to the puzzle. The “Prometheus” International Trailer gives us some new footage featuring the same breath-taking special effects and amazing production design. I still have tons of questions about the film but this trailer  gets me even more excited. Click any of the links to check out the “Prometheus” International Trailer. The film is set for a June 8th release.

Some very cool bits of news from Christopher Nolan’s “The Dark Knight Rises”. The movie’s promotional campaign is off and running. Early in the week “leaked” scans of some Gotham City documents hit the web including a police issued arrest warrant and a wanted poster for Batman, a letter from the deputy commissioner, and a photo of evidence on it’s way to forensics. I posted full scans of these earlier in the week (you can find them by clicking  THIS LINK). Fun stuff!

But perhaps even more exciting was the release of “The Dark Knight Rises” Trailer #3 ! At first it was set to debut attached to “The Avengers” movie but through a clever viral web trick, the trailer was unleashed earlier and it doesn’t disappoint. “The Dark Knight Rises” Trailer #3 features loads of new footage and answers some questions about Bane and especially Selina Kyle (a.k.a. Catwoman). View “The Dark Knight Rises” Trailer #3 by clicking any of the links above. The film is set for a July 20th release.

Staying with the superhero news, have you had a chance to see the “The Amazing Spider-Man” Trailer #2 ? This is a movie that I have been a little reluctant to get excited about. This reboot didn’t excite me at first but after seeing “The Amazing Spider-Man” Trailer #2 that has changed. If you haven’t seen it, click on any of the links and tell me what you think. “The Amazing Spider-Man is due out July 3rd.
