AMC has debuted the trailer for “The Walking Dead” Season 2, which premieres on October 16.

Filming is currently underway for the second season of AMC’s hit zombie show and, damn, things are sure looking amazing!  I don’t think they’d veer quite so far from the comics, the whole cast looks fuckin’ miserable, and that’s what makes Walking Dead so dope!

The Amazing Spider-Man now has its first poster to go with the debut trailer. The extreme close-up of the Spider-Symbol on the new hero’s back makes a strong statement about the focus and character-driven nature of director Marc Webb’s quickly-delivered reboot of the Spider-Man film franchise.

The film hits theaters July 3, 2012.

According to the fine people at ActionFigurePics, these figures are just prototypes. I sure hope one day these figures get made! Check out more pics at AFP.

Captain America’s shield was on display at Marvel’s Comic-Con booth in SDCC. This is the ACTUAL shield from the “Captain America: The First Avenger” movie and was flown in directly from London where the movie is currently being filmed.

The footage begins with the title card “Norway, May 1942″ we see told older men in a stone castle-like interior. The walls are shaking, dust and dirt falling. The wall implodes inward as a Nazi soldiers come rushing in, and examine a crypt in the center of the room. And then Johann Shmidt (Hugo Weaving pre Red Skull) makes his entrance from the huge hole in the wall. He orders the surviving old man to hand over “The Tesseract.” The man tells Shmidt that what he is looking for is just a legend. Shmidt responds, “then why go through so much work to conceal it?” The crypt is opened, and inside is the bones of a crusader holding a misty crystal white cube. Shmidt picks it up, and says “The Tesseract was the prize of Odin’s collection.” But he isn’t fooled. He throws it down on the ground, smashing it to bits. This is not what he was looking for.

He then turns his attention to the wall, which contains a large wood caving of Yggdrasil, the Norse Tree of Life. In the wall he finds a hidden compartment. Hell pulls it out and opens it. Blue glow fills his face. Shmidt says to the man “You haven’t seen this yet, have you?” The man responds, “It’s not for the eyes of ordinary men.”
