Oliver Queen is about to face his toughest adversary yet, and The CW has revealed a few new Arrow pics showing off the mysterious new Big Bad. Hmm ... that costume looks pretty similar, doesn't it? It's Christmas-time in Starling City. Oliver's gift? An archnemesis. The new pics show what appears to be a " Dark Archer ," though we're still not sure if it's actually the Dark Archer featured in the Green Arrow comics as a classic baddie for Ollie. Regardless, it looks like some ass-kicking will definitely be going down. We can glean a bit more from the official episode description for the midseason finale "Year's End," which airs Dec. 12: Oliver ( Stephen Amell ) discovers that after he and his father went missing, Moira ( Susanna Thompson ) and Thea ( Willa Holland ) stopped celebrating Christmas. Determined to make up for lost time and restore a sense of normalcy to the Queen household, Oliver decides to throw the family a Chr

J.J. Abrams is not above teasing Star Trek fans, what with this three frame sneak peek at Spock in a fire retardant suit on Conan in October and the nine-minute IMAX preview set to play before certain screenings of The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey in December. But now that this official plot synopsis has landed, there are finally some concrete (albeit vague) facts to ponder. Below is the synopsis for your delectation and appreciation – note the more generic "explosive action thriller" language alongside the more intriguing "a war-zone world" and "one-man weapon of mass destruction" tidbits. “In Summer 2013, pioneering director J.J. Abrams will deliver an explosive action thriller that takes Star Trek Into Darkness . When the crew of the Enterprise is called back home, they find an unstoppable force of terror from within their own organisation has detonated the fleet and everything it stands for, leaving our world in a state of crisis. With a p

NBC Universal’s Syfy cable network is making a $100 million play for the videogame market, as I report in the new issue of FORBES. What I didn’t mention in that story is that Syfy is also pushing into the movie business — and that it may even remake “Waterworld,” one of the most notorious Hollywood bombs of all time. Syfy has been looking for a way into film for years, ever since NBC merged with Vivendi Universal Entertainment in 2004. That marriage provided Syfy — known as Sci Fi Channel until a 2009 brand makeover — with access to Universal Pictures’ vast trove of intellectual property.11 “Having a theatrical film label is not only a natural fit for Syfy,” says Dave Howe, the network’s president. “It’s also a gap in the marketplace.” In Hollywood, “science fiction” is virtually synonymous with “megabudget CGI-laden summer action movie.” Howe and his team at Syfy saw an opportunity for a different kind of science fiction film, one driven less by expensive stars and special ef

Though a certain saga set in a galaxy far, far away is currently the biggest topic of rumor  there is still plenty of life in speculation over who and what will be part of Warner Bros.' Justice League film, which is aiming at a 2015 launch. Now Hitfix’s Drew McWeeny has sources telling him that Joseph Gordon-Levitt is moving from likely candidate to early casting talks. Of course, nothing has officially been announced about the film beyond Gangster Squad’s Will Beall writing at least a few drafts of the script. So this remains in the world of the rumour for now. But it’s certainly a tantalising one, given that – spoiler alert here for anyone who still hasn’t seen The Dark Knight Rises or any discussion thereof and might complain – Gordon-Levitt’s John Blake is A) revealed to have the legal name Robin and B) appears to take on the Bat-mantle at the end. McWeeny, who is not a man to run any old rumor, has it that Gordon-Levitt will indeed be taking on the full Bat-duty fo

Now that the Twilight Saga series is over, the fittest vampire in the pack, Kellan Lutz , has found a new potential franchise to sink his teeth into. Lutz has signed to star in the indie genre film Tatua . Based on an original concept by comic book creators Paul Jenkins and Rob Prior, Tatua is about a man with a rare blood type that allows him to be tattooed with a powerful ink. He is able to pull those weapons straight off his skin, giving him an enviable leg up as a covert assassin. Aaron Sims, the vfx wiz who helmed the viral sensation short Archetype, is set to make his directing debut on the film, says Rick Schwartz, whose Overnight Productions has lined up the financing for a March production start in Toronto. Paul Layden wrote the script, and Schwartz will produce with Todd Breau and Kari Hollend. Schwartz’s producing credits include the upcoming Machete Kills, Black Swan, The Departed and The Others. Schwartz tells me he wanted to find a genre film that was less expensiv
