Voltron Movie Still Underway

In light of the recent box-office success of the Transformers movie, 20th Century Fox has announced plans to boost production of their Voltron live-action movie and franchise.  Fox is hoping that Voltron will appeal to the same masses with equal success. Like Transformers, Voltron was an anime series from the 80s which sparked a large market of figurines, comics, spin-offs and fans. It focused on a team of five pilots flying lion-shaped mechs which joined together to become Voltron, a sword-weilding mech used for the sake of defending the galaxy from evil forces.

Review: TMNT

Release Date: March 23, 2007

Created for the enjoyment of nostalgic young adults and cartoon loving children, the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles return to the big screen once again! This time sporting wonderfully done 3D graphics, it’s a positive change for the turtles as they return to find a new place among today’s heroes and box office-hits.

Taking place as a sequel to the three live action movies released almost a decade ago, this movie takes place after Shredder’s defeat, meaning you won’t be seeing exactly the same plot recycled yet again. In this movie the turtles must reunite and take on a 3000 year old war general who seeks to reopen a portal to another dimension with the aid of his super powerful siblings. This time it isn’t just New York they find themselves saving but the whole world; in fact the movie even begins in the jungle depths of South America. Of course it couldn’t be called a TMNT movie without all classic elements including the character’s unique personalities and pizza eating, slang talking, ninja mayhem. This movie delivers all of it that, including a depth to the characters not seen since the earlier movies.
