OMG I actually getting stoked for a movie – The Tron Legacy trailer

I remember going to see the first Tron movie and loving every second of it. It has to be one of the best geekie sci-fi films made. That is until now, and what better replacement than its own sequel. Here is the second full length trailer that has just made its way onto the web.

And ya, even though it’s 3D I’m still really excited in seeing Tron Legacy.

Deus Ex: Human Evolution – I so want this game [Trailer]

In its time Deus Ex was an incredible game and it has continued to draw faithful followers over the years even though it was surpassed many times over by other games. That however could change this coming February when Deus Ex: Human Evolution is released for the Xbox 360 and PS3 (Oh No .. no PC release .. please tell me that isn’t so!). There is even a rumor floating around that Hollywood is taking a serious look at it as a possible movie – which, once you watch the trailer you will totally understand why.

It looks like the long awaited sequel to an already awesome game is just gonna rock.

Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen – some cool facts

Steven Hodson — Thu, 18 Jun 2009 03:30:00 +0000

I’m sure somewhere someone is counting down the last seven days until this movie hits the theaters (I’m not) but in the meantime Michael Bay, the main man behind the movie, has let loose some facts and figures about the movie to tide us you over.

First off the important stuff – the Robots

14 robots last time, 46 robots this time (ILM only)

If you had all the gold ever mined in the history of man, you could build a little more than half of Devastator.

Optimus Prime will be life size on IMAX screens in many forest fight shots.

Devastator’s hand is traveling 390 miles per hour when he punches the pyramid.

All robot parts laid out end to end would stretch from one side of California to the other, about 180 miles

Devastator’s parts stacked tip to tip would be as tall as 58 empire state buildings.

With all that CGI work the amount of disk space used must have been massive

TF1 took 20 Terabytes of disk space. Trans2 took 145 Terabytes. Seven times bigger!
145 terabytes would fill 35,000 DVDs. Stacked one on top of the other without storage cases, they would be 145 feet tall.

Tying it altogether of course is the rendering time needed

If you rendered the entire movie on a modern home PC, you would have had to start the renders 16,000 years ago (when cave paintings like the Hall of Bulls were being made) to finish for this year’s premiere!
A single imax shot in the movie (df250) would have taken almost 3 years to render on a top of the line home PC running nonstop.
IMAX frame render times: As high as 72 hours per frame!

You can read all the fun facts over on Michael Bay’s blog just incase you find it hard to make it the full seven days without some sort of Transformers fix.
