Geek News You Should Know: 5/16/14

1) The new Christopher Nolan movie, Interstellar, hits theaters this November and the first trailer hit the interwebs today, and it looks AWESOME!  It stars Matthew McConaughey, Jessica Chastain, Anne Hathaway, Casey Affleck and Michael Caine and takes place on Earth in a not so distant future where food becomes scarce and McConaughey and a few other explorers go into space to try to find a solution for humanity.  This trailer is absolutely beautiful and I could not be more excited to see this film.



2) The first cast picture from Pitch Perfect 2 was posted on Rebel Wilson's twitter account yesterday and shows the gang, along with Director Elizabeth Banks, rocking some Barden Bellas jackets.  Hey, it's a slow news day and Pitch Perfect was an amazing movie, plus it's nice to see Banksy, Anna Kendrick, Rebel Wilson, Brittany Snow, and the rest of the gang re-united.

3) A new poster for Guardians of the Galaxy was released online today and you have to believe that this will be the official theatrical poster for the movie.  It is completely bad ass. Also, there will be a new trailer for the movie released on Monday, which I'll post up here in Monday's article and Anthony will be posting in his twitter all day and watching about 927 times.

 4) The reason to buy an X-Box One is only a year and a half away as Microsoft has officially announced Halo 5: Guardians for the system to be released in Fall 2015.  Very few details have been released as they plan on making a more formal presentation at E3 in a few weeks but here a promo image.  The Halo TV Series produced by Steven Spielberg will be available to watch on the X-Box One around the same time.

 5) Dark Horse Comics has released it's August 2014 Solicitations and this notes the last month that Star Wars will be releasing individual issues of comic books, they'll still have some trades in place to be released in later months of 2014 but it is the last month of floppies until Marvel takes over the license in 2015.  Also coming out are a continuation of Buffy: Season 10 as well as a new Blacksad: Amarillo collection, which Anthony gave rave reviews of the first book.
