The Wolverine - My Original Infographic (Jul 2013)

After created the beast size post on The Wolverine a week plus ago, I've decided to try my hand again (second time) to design an Infographic on the movie theme. This time round, I've picked The Wolverine as this is the most anticipated sequel at the moment. For my very first infographic on the movie theme, click Oz The Great And Powerful.

As per my very first one, I designed this infographic by using the Powerpoint Software. Also, I've decided to give it a title. After much thought, here comes my Infographic series - Movie In A Pic. What do you think about the name? As my Infographic venture is still in its infancy, any input/comment are welcome as I intended to make it as a regular feature in the future.

Before proceed further, I would like to ask you for a favour i.e. to leave me a note or two on your view (positive or negative) about this Infographic. Also, if you have any idea or movie that would like me to create as an Infographic, please feel free to leave the details in the comment section. Steady?

Now, hope you enjoy my second infographic which is hot from the oven.

The Wolverine - The Beast Size Movie Trailers, Posters And Many More

The Wolverine

After Pacific Rim (which is opening this week), the next big budget 3D extravaganza that I am totally looking forward to is The Wolverine, sequel (or maybe reboot) of the 2009's X-men Origin : Wolverine. Once again, Hugh Jackman reprises the titular role and the this time round it is closer to home (for me, since I am an Asian) as most part of the movie seems to be happening in Japan (at least from the trailer).

Short synopsis of The Wolverine (source: GeekTyrant):

Based on the celebrated comic book arc, this epic action-adventure takes Wolverine, the most iconic character of the X-Men universe, to modern day Japan. Out of his depth in an unknown world he faces his ultimate nemesis in a life-or-death battle that will leave him forever changed. Vulnerable for the first time and pushed to his physical and emotional limits, he confronts not only lethal samurai steel but also his inner struggle against his own immortality, emerging more powerful than we have ever seen him before.

Now, enjoy the beast size of The Wolverine details in the form of trailers, posters, character posters and featurettes.

Pacific Rim - Cool Behind The Scene Featurette

The two-minutes behind the scene sneak peak of Pacific Rim that I am going to share next will give you a glimpse of how the giant robot is integrated with the human so as two-become-one (technically should be three-become-one since there are two human beings controlling the robot). From the visionary director, Guillermo del Toro, this upcoming original sci-fi looks set to be an epic in the making and will be remembered for many years to come. 

In this sneak peek, there are many new footage not shown in the previous trailers. Also, you can get a better glimpse of the giant monsters (Kaiju) and the epic fight with the giant robot.    

Pacific Rim will be released globally on 12th July 2013 in IMAX and IMAX 3D as well. For my earlier coverage on this movie, click here.

The Wolverine - The Insanely Good Trailer

The Wolverine, a spin off from the X-men franchise is also a sequel to the 2009's X-Men Origins : Wolverine. Hugh Jackman again reprises the titular role (I personally view that Hugh Jackman fit into this superhero with animal-keen senses, enhanced physical capabilities and super healing power, perfectly. What do you think?).

 

Directed by James Mangold and stars, Hugh Jackman, Will Yun Lee, Svetlana Khodchenkova, Hiroyuki Sanada, and Brian Tee. It hits theatres on 26th July 2013.

Pacific Rim - Latest Trailer That Will Blow You Away!

Move away Godzilla, forget about the Transformers, here comes the long awaited sci-fi, Pacific Rim, the gigantic man-made robots vs the gigantic monsters called Kaiju. Directed by Guillermo del Toro (the well known director whom last brought us the Hellboy franchise and Pan's Labyrinth). 

Last weekend, Warner Bros released the latest trailer of Pacific Rim at  the Hero Complex Film Festival. It is awesomely awesome and I can guarantee you that watching the trailer once is not enough, especially if you are a sci-fi fans. 

Before proceed to the trailer, check out the short synopsis of Pacific Rim below (source: GeekTyrant.com):

When legions of monstrous creatures, known as Kaiju, started rising from the sea, a war began that would take millions of lives and consume humanity’s resources for years on end. To combat the giant Kaiju, a special type of weapon was devised: massive robots, called Jaegers, which are controlled simultaneously by two pilots whose minds are locked in a neural bridge. But even the Jaegers are proving nearly defenseless in the face of the relentless Kaiju. On the verge of defeat, the forces defending mankind have no choice but to turn to two unlikely heroes — a washed up former pilot and an untested trainee — who are teamed to drive a legendary but seemingly obsolete Jaeger from the past. Together, they stand as mankind’s last hope against the mounting apocalypse.

Pacific Rim - Latest Character Posters (Jul 2013)

Being a sci-fi fan, one of my personal most anticipated movie is non other than Guillermo del Toro's Pacific Rim. One specific reason is it is not a sequel or prequel ie a brand new story with giant monsters and giant robots. A bit like Transformers but with a fresh touch. 

Warner Bros has released quite a few mouth watering giant robots posters (click here to see the details) and visually awesome trailer(s) since a few weeks ago. Recently, they have released yet another marketing campaign that allow user to create their own Jaeger (aka the giant robot) poster (poster on the left is an example of the poster created via this app). If you find it interesting, click here to find out more of the app.

Also, two more character posters have been released just awhile ago. So, enjoy the app and the character posters below..
