Above and to your right, a few close-ups of the upcoming Terminator Salvation toys from Playmates. To your upper left, the Kenner Jurassic Park figures, which – though it was awesome to get some dinosaur toys to play with – were sculpted horribly and looked nothing remotely like the cast.

We thought that would be a good comparison for the speculation of SPOILERS that goes on within. Are you looking a T4 spoiler in the face right now?

Ever since it was announced that Marvel Studios would unite their film properties in one universe, the potential problem has been Thor. Iron Man set the stage with Nick Fury bringing up The Avengers, eventually leading to the announcement that after Thor, Iron Man II and Captain America movies, there will be a team-up Avengers film featuring Captain America, Thor, Iron Man and The Hulk at least.

The films that have come thus far has had a degree of basis in reality, but everything we hear about Kenneth Branagh’s Thor insists it mostly takes place in a fantasy setting of Asgard, until now…

Arguably, George Romero should stop making zombie movies. But, since that doesn’t look like it’s going to happen, we might as well pop in every once in awhile to see what of the dead he’s shooting at the moment. After his last effort Diary Of The Dead fell flat due to horribleness, a new promo has emerged for his recently-wrapped follow-up, just titled: …Of The Dead.

The Writer’s Guild of America sure did screw television over this year. Call us crazy, but there were certain TV shows that were never able to return to their pre-strike awesomeness, and there were certain TV shows who weren’t able to put the strike behind them (could Heroes be the only show that fits into both categories?).

Films, on the other hand, haven’t really begun to be effected yet. A lot of the scripts that were halted during the WGA strike of 07/08 are coming up for 2009’s production slate, and people are starting to wonder what that means for this year’s on-screen quality…

Tillman, the internet-famous skateboarding bulldog is the subject of a new Muppet viral video where Rizzo th Rat and Rowlf the Dog attempt to out-skate the pooch. Needless to say, it doesn’t turn out as planned, but the Muppet’s continued viral presence is worth watching…

The first official one-sheet for Street Fighter: The Legend Of Chun Li has been released on the internet and it’s real, even if it does look like someone photoshopped it together from clip art and head shots…

Thanks to YouTube, we have 11 behind the scenes featurettes of Coraline, based on Neil Gaiman’s (Sandman comics, Beowulf and Stardust) young adult’s story about a girl who gets sucked into a parallel world where and evil “Other Mother” and “Other Father” want to keep her there.

Gaiman teamed up with Nightmare Before Christmas Director Henry Selick to make the film in amazing 3-D stop motion.

Everything we’ve seen thus far looks absolutely amazing and the care demonstrated in these videos is astounding. Especially the first one from Art Director Bo Henry:

Pretty awesome, huh?

10 much more informative, but equally as cool videos under the cut!

Audrey Tautou is damn cute, and there is nothing we can do about it, except watch Amiele on loop and occasionally stop by The Da Vinci code on 2X fast forward.

Her new film is a French bio pic of fashion designer Coco Chanel, the only fashion desginer to make TIME Magazine’s 100 most influential people of the 20th century. This particular flick is based on a biography written by Edmonde Charles-Roux, but is written and directed by Anne Fontaine.

No official word yet on when we can see this in American theaters, but - and this is just a guess - we’ll probably see it in some international competitions first.

All we can say is that we miss the era of wide-brimmed hats.
