Here's Robert Rodriguez's movie for Nike, The Black Mamba, which stars Kobe Bryant as a basketball player with Last Dragon-like superpowers, Danny Trejo as a henchman with giant claws, Bruce Willis as some guy in a suit, and Kanye West as a supervillain who collects shoes (or something). There's also a basketball bomb. None of it makes a lick of sense, but it's pretty slick for a footwear commercial. More »

Check out this strange trailer for Robert Rodriguez's Nike movie called The Black Mamba. Apparently Bruce Willis, who is the devil, wants Kobe Bryant's shoes (because Kobe's the greatest player in the world... *cough*). And now Bryant has to play on a basketball court of fire (OK that part was cool). Danny Trejo's makes a cameo, naturally, and so will Kanye West. Huh? We're confused, hold us. The full flick will be released Feb. 19th, but will it make you want to buy shoes? More »

The three-issue miniseries written by Ellis and drawn by Cully Hamner was a lean, mean, assassin-on-the-warpath thriller, about one old man proving that some things are best left alone. But the movie version looks like a frothy romp. Um, okay. More »

Surrogates, the Bruce Willis cyber-avatar movie coming next fall, is "cool and sort of Blade Runner-ish," says producer Elizabeth Banks, star of Zack and Miri Make A Porno. And the tale of a future where people stay home and their robot "surrogates" go out into the world could actually turn into a trilogy. More »

A grim warning to all robots looms over a pile of dirt and rubble on the set of The Surrogates, now filming in Hopedale, Massachusetts. In The Surrogates, based on a graphic novel, every human has a robot copy so they never have to leave the home. Willis plays a cop that has to go outside for the first time in years to investigate a rash of surrogate robot murders. Perhaps the last picture of Willis with his terrible rug was his idealistic perception of his robot self? Click through for more on set pics. More »

Is that Bruce Willis or his robot replacement on the set of the futuristic science fiction flick The Surrogates ? It should be impossible to tell according to the original graphic novel. In The Surrogates' future, all humans have robot replacements that they send out to do their bidding, while the real people stay at home. Bruce Willis plays a cop who is forced to leave his home after years of being a shut-in (which explains the 90s highlights) to investigate a rash of robot murders. Pictured to the right of Willis is actress Anya Monzikova who plays a sexy lady robot. Io9 recently revealed exclusive pictures of these robot servants sans their skin, and they look sort of like a shiny peeled human. [Metro] More »

David Cronenberg (The Fly, Crash) is in talks to direct the American remake of the Sundance scifi crime movie Timecrimes, according to original director Nacho Vigalondo. Which would be amazing news for Timecrimes as Cronenberg could bring a lot grit and darkness to the American version, as long as it's not as bewildering as eXistenZ. More »

Some more details have come out about Surrogates, the robo-Bruce Willis we covered a while back. Based on a graphic novel, Surrogates takes place in 2054, when humans live in isolation and interact using idealized robot versions of themselves (which they control with their minds.)

Flying cars are dime-a-dozen in science fiction. But they don't all look as cool as Harrison Ford's cop car does in Sid Mead's original concept art. And some of them have cool extras, like voice-controlled color or a built-in ATM . But what you really want to know is, what's the fastest super-car in scifi? We rank them by speed (with a gallery) below. More »
