Scream 6 Releases the Coolest Teaser Poster EVER


By now, everybody knows the drill when it comes to eagerly awaited movie releases. We get teaser images, teaser trailers and teaser posters, each of which providing some kind of hint as to what viewers can expect. Then there's Scream 6.

Anyone who has been keeping an eye on this sequel knows that it will take place in New York City, and the recent teaser trailer showed surviving characters from the last Scream movie riding in a NYC subway car. The latest Scream 6 poster plays with the subway idea and takes it to a completely new level:


I mean, just LOOK at this thing. It uses a subway map to connect characters from the previous five movies and does so in a way that forms the shape of a Ghostface mask. Each color line corresponds to each movie in the series, and those lines feature the names of the characters who only appear in that particular film and the order in which they were killed. (Note that the Scream 6 line is "in construction".) Just as each Scream movie revolves around the mystery of who is wearing the Ghostface mask and why, this poster connects the names together in a way that is reminiscent of the common mystery/suspense trope where characters use string to connect clues together on a pegboard.

Almost all of the names on this poster are characters who died in the previous five movies, except for two: Sam Carpenter (Melissa Barrera) and Kirby Reed (Hayden Panettiere). Sam Carpenter's name is in all capital letters, while Kirby Reed is listed as "closed". What exactly this means is a mystery (of course), but it is still a fun and creative way to acknowledge the franchise's long history while teasing a new chapter. Scream 6 opens on March 10, 2023.

The Art of Tron: Uprising (Part 1 of 4): Characters

Image
This month marks the one year anniversary of the cancellation of Tron: Uprising , which aired on Disney XD for 19 episodes. Set between the events of Tron and Tron: Legacy , Uprising chronicled the events shortly after Clu’s rise to power within the stand-alone Grid created by Kevin Flynn. Personally, I think that Tron: Uprising got a raw deal from Disney. It’s a fantastic addition to the Tron saga that went on to win both Emmy and Annie Awards , yet Disney clearly had other priorities and was willing to toss Uprising aside without so much as an official cancellation notice. Even to this day, Uprising has yet to be released on DVD or Blu-ray and I’m wondering if it ever will. In honor of this amazing animated series that was cut down in its prime, I have decided to do something that Disney won’t. Since there will never be an official Tron: Uprising art book, I have searched across the Internet to find a selection of art from Uprising that I can share here on my blog with

The Thing 2: A Sequel Frozen in the Lost Video Game Wasteland

Image
Since I added The Thing prequel to my Blu-ray collection (read my review here ), I've been on a bit of a Thing kick lately. I watched John Carpenter's 1982 movie again, and I've been looking through various Thing fan sites to see if I can learn anything new about this sporadically active franchise. While the poor box office performance of 2011's The Thing precludes another Thing movie any time soon, I was surprised to discover that there was yet another Thing project in the works even before anyone considered a prequel on the silver screen. The project was called The Thing 2 , and it was designed by Computer Artworks as a sequel to their 2002 The Thing video game. From what I've been able to piece together, development of The Thing 2 was discontinued after Computer Artworks shut down in 2004. I've found some conceptual artwork for this game online, which you can see in the picture gallery I've assembled below. Read on....

The Art of Tron: Uprising (Part 2 of 4): Vehicles and Equipment

Image
In this second of four posts devoted to the art of Tron: Uprising , we'll be taking a look at the vehicles and equipment used by the characters in Uprising . The original Tron movie revealed a selection of vehicles and equipment that became closely associated with the franchise. The Light Cycles, Recognizers, Light Tanks, and Identity Discs of Tron were also featured prominently in the movie's tie-in arcade games and would reappear later with updated designs in Tron 2.0 and Tron: Legacy . Uprising featured these same items as well, along with new vehicles and equipment that are analogous to things in the real world: boats, helicopters, rail transportation, and hand-held tools. Of particular significance is the Recoder tool used by Beck, which gave fans a look at how programs assemble, disassemble and repair the virtual machinery within the Grid.
