And The Invasions Continue …

Some good new promotional teasers are appearing for the forthcoming season of Steven Spielberg’s Falling Skies on TNT. Check out this new one above. Hopefully the new show will actually be as good as the promos. Falling Skies has its two-hour, season 2 premiere on Sunday, June 17th.

And the alien invasions just keep coming. Check out the new sci-fi short film Chameleon that’s making the rounds, and also a teaser for the indie film Ombis. (Hat tip to io9 for those shorts.) And if that’s not enough for you, check out this set video of Toronto being transformed into Tokyo for Guillermo del Toro’s forthcoming Pacific Rim; plus, you can catch this new video on the creature design for Peter Berg’s Battleship, or watch Ridley Scott, Charlize Theron, Michael Fassbender and Noomi Rapace conduct an interesting, 36-minute discussion of Prometheus at a Paris press conference on April 11th.

New Clip from Marvel’s The Avengers

Marvel’s highly anticipated The Avengers has its world premiere in Hollywood tonight, and more clips are now coming out from the film. In the scene above, Tony Stark (Robert Downey Jr.) confronts Loki (Tom Hiddleston) in Stark’s swanky New York City apartment over an invading alien horde Loki will be leading against Earth.

It’s amazing how many such hordes are attacking Earth these days – you’d think they’d have something better to do. Like help Lamar Odom resurrect his career.

Also: if you haven’t already read it, feel free to check out our LFM interview with Marvel’s Stan Lee from this year’s Slamdance Film Festival.

Alien Warfare! New Clips from Battleship and Falling Skies, Plus a New Image from Halo 4

Cortana and Master Chief in "Halo 4."

For those of you following Earth’s seemingly endless conflicts with alien invaders, a new clip of Battleship just went online featuring alien ‘shredders’ attacking a Marine base (see above), plus there are some new promos out for the next season of TNT’s Falling Skies (including the first 3 1/2 minutes of the Season premiere). Battleship opens May 18th (Men in Black 3D opens a week later, btw), while Falling Skies Season 2 debuts June 17th.

There’s also a new image out today of Master Chief and Cortana from the forthcoming Halo 4. Cortana’s certainly looking sexier than ever.

For the real die-hards, you can also check out the new production blog for Ender’s Game.
