It's been a few weeks since we had news from the "Wonder Woman" animated feature front, but the latest update is a big one! Warner Bros. Home Video has provided MTV with an exclusive new clip from the upcoming feature-length animated film that puts the spotlight on the third member of DC's comic book trinity, everyone's favorite Amazon warrior princess.

Check out the new clip below from the "Wonder Woman" animated feature, which will be released on DVD and Blu-Ray March 3:

While we don't get to hear Keri Russell voicing Wonder Woman in the clip, we do get to hear Virginia Madsen as Hippolyta, and see some other moments from the character's origin brought to animated life. Read more...

Images from the set of “Scott Pilgrim vs. The World” have been trickling out over the 'Net lately courtesy of director Edgar Wright and his production blog, and now we finally have the first photo of Michael Cera as Scott Pilgrim (as well as Anna Kendrick as Scott's sister, Stacey Pilgrim).

In the new photos, Kendrick and Cera are holding sketches by “Scott Pilgrim” creator Bryan Lee O'Malley, which we can only assume is an effort to show how close they resemble their characters. There are more photos over at Wright's flickr photostream, including a shot of Wright's notes, as well as Satya Bhaba (who plays evil ex-boyfriend Matthew Patel) doing some prep for the big showdown with Cera's Scott Pilgrim. Read on for full versions of the photos. Read more...

Last week, we reported that Marvel fans looking forward to the May 1 release of "X-Men Origins: Wolverine" would be getting gift from their friends at 20th Century Fox in the form of three 60-second clips direct from the Snikt!-flick, and those who were patient could check all three out together on Yahoo! after the last clip airs this Thursday during "American Idol."

Since we're not patient -- and we assume the same about our readers -- we grabbed the first two clips which aired over the holiday weekend and we've got 'em here. (Who loves ya like your Splash Page team, huh?) Check out the first clip, titled "Outcasts," below:

Read on for the second clip -- titled "Brothers" -- which clearly shows that "Wolverine" star Hugh Jackman wasn't kidding around when he said fans should expect nothing less than one"bad ass" Wolverine movie. Read more...

We're less than three weeks out from the film any fan worth their longbox has been counting down the days to see, and if you think for a second the marketing campaign for the "Watchmen" movie will begin to slow down anytime soon, you'd be dead wrong. Indeed, it looks like we've been treated to yet another TV spot in anticipation of the March 6 release, this time showcasing the more human aspects of the anti-heroic crew of super-humans.

If this most recent trailer is any indication, unsuspecting noob moviegoers expecting a fun superhero romp a la "Iron Man" will be in for quite a surprise. (UPDATE: After the jump, check out TV spot #6 which debuted last night!) Read more...
