Fireball’s ACTION MOVIEBITS… Superman/Batman, 24, Avatar 2-4, Thor & Gravity Posters
• Zack Snyder is discussing SUPERMAN/BATMAN with artist Frank Miller. This will make the Dark Night darker and Superman have wunders again.
• “24″ is coming back and it’s 24: LIVE ANOTHER DAY. Kiefer Sutherland & Mary Lynn Rajskub confirmed. That means that Chloe will be an even BIGGER pain in the patootie.
• James Cameron is shooting all 3 AVATARS back to back, the first peeking its Pandorian head in 2016. Geez, it takes forever now for God to make his worlds! (Decembers in 2016, 2017, and 2018)
• GRAVITY and THOR THE DARK WORLD Posters. Both… on the Fireball list.

Fireball ALEXA celebrates a BIG #4 Birthday!!!

WATCH! On Set: TRANSFORMERS 4
Some great vids from the set of TRANSFORMERS 4 reveals… Cars, Explosions and Detroit as China. Yes, it’s a Michael Bay movie.
Fireball’s ACTION MOVIEBITS… Star Wars 7, Despicable Me 2, Elysium Extended Trailer
• Like Return of the Jedi’s original pseudonym “Blue Harvest,” STAR WARS 7 will take on the secret name “Foodles.” Why? Because it’s a Disney snack. And that’s just the way they roll…
• DESPICABLE ME 2 is Universal’s most profitable film for 2013, not FF7. So, the next one will be DESPICABLY FURIOUS 3. (Actually, that could be kind of cool if you think about it.)
• Watch the EXTENDED TRAILER for ELYSIUM. It rocks.

My Daily Sketch… THE NEW DYMAXION
So, although this was a sketch I did back in the day, it still fascinates me that Buckminster Fuller was so beyond his time. Just google Dymaxion and you’ll see what he’s done. We should all be such visionaries…
