Zack Snyder, the director of literal comic book translation movies 300, and Watchmen, is back with an original film entitled “Suckerpunch”. The movie definitely appears to be over the top and full of fantastic looking action sequences, with the same saturated, high-polish finish Snyder’s other films have had. Some may make comparisons to Jamie Hewlett‘s Tank Girl,, as well as the more recent movie Machine Girl, and rightfully so. Regardless, the movie looks like a good time and a visual feast.

It is rumored that Alex Pardee has been one of the artists tapped for character design in this film, which is exciting to hear. Pardee’s brand of twisted visuals should take this project to another level. Look for more info to be posted at the film’s website, and check out the trailer in high definition at Apple Trailers. We’ll be on the lookout for concept art by Pardee and others as more information on this film is released. Trailer embedded below. (more…)

I knew it was going to be a good trip because 10 minutes into my drive I saw a rainbow (sadly, not full on double). (more…)
