See Ryan Reynolds In His Green Lantern Costume

green lantern reynolds See Ryan Reynolds In His Green Lantern CostumeWith Comic Con literally only a week away and Warner Bros planning a big, Green Lantern event during the year’s annual geek-a-palooza, you’d think they’d have waited and simply debuted this image then. But I guess the needs of corporate payola outweigh their desire for proper marking so, to prop up Entertainment Weekly, they’ve decided to debut your first ever look at Ryan Reynolds as Green Lantern through the magazine.

First Look At Flynn In Tron: Legacy

Disney has released a new image from Tron: Legacy, this time featuring Jeff Bridges. He’ll play both Kevin Flynn and the computer program Clu in the film. It’s unclear which of those two characters this is, but I’d guess it’s Flynn since Clu, at least in the original movie, came with a bright, red glow while Flynn, as does the man pictured here, sported a sweet blue data disc.

Intense New Iron Man 2 Image

Iron Man 2 has just released what can only be described as a frickin sweet new image. Or at least as close as an Iron Man 2 image can be to being frickin sweet without showing Iron Man, War Machine, Whiplash, or Black Cat’s cleavage. In this particular picture, Tony’s suited up in his racing gear and looking into the camera as if he’s about to kick some serious, Formula 1 ass. Focus your scanners on this:

First Look At BSG’s Tricia Helfer On Chuck

helfer First Look At BSGs Tricia Helfer On ChuckWhen you think of Battlestar Galactica, what’s the first thing you think of? Six’s red dress! Come on, admit it. Sure the show is full of space ships and explosions, but how can you not think of Tricia Helfer stuffed into that now iconic, red dress.

With BSG’s run drawing to a close, Helfer is branching out into other geek realms. Unfortunately, she won’t be taking her red dress with her when she guest stars on NBC’s Chuck this season. Her appearance happens on March 30th, and the folks at EW scored a first look at what she’ll be wearing. That’s here there to your right, with Captain Awesome. Stripper-cop outfit do anything for you? Yeah, I still miss the red dress. Maybe it’s underneath.

First Look At Alex Proyas’s Lost-like New Movie

Even if he’d only made Dark City, that would be enough to justify Alex Proyas as some sort of science fiction god. But he’s done more, heck he even made a Will Smith movie palatable. Now he’s working on a new post-apocalyptic movie called Knowing.

The movie stars Nic Cage as a man who discovers a letter in a time capsule. The letter contains a series of numbers that foretell catastrophes. Among the things he’s able to predict… 9/11. It sounds sort of like Hurley’s numbers on Lost, doesn’t it? And, weirdly enough, the first picture released from the film also, greatly resembled Lost.

The picture below first popped up online at USA Today this week. Take a look at it below, and click over there for more on Proyas’ next movie.
