Tron by Martin Ansin

While the jury has definitely been split on TRON Legacy, there is little doubt of the importance of it and it’s 1982 predecessor TRON in the world of geek.

That said, it probably comes as little surprise that our favorite poster company, Mondo, is releasing an unprecedented third set of posters to celebrate both films.  Due to hit MondoTees.com for sale later today,  this set of two 24″x36″ posters are designed by the masterful Martin Ansin, known to Mondo fans for his work on posters for both Dracula and The Mummy.

What’s really cool is these posters not just feature a unique UV varnish, they also glow in the freakin’ dark.

If you are interested in these posters (which will only be sold in sets!), they will be available for $90, limited to 390 pairs.  If you miss out, don’t fret too much, as Mondo will have an exclusive variant edition on sale through Sideshow Collectables in the next few weeks.

As always, stick to Mondo’s Twitter for release details, and good luck!

So, this coming fall, James Bond returns to the silver screen in the hopefully to be awesome flick Skyfall.  Not only is this the third flick for Daniel Craig, who I feel has been amazing, but it marks the fiftieth anniversary of the Bond franchise.

In turn, MGM/Fox are also planning something for HD movie nerds like myself – Bond 50: The Complete 22 Film Collection, a 23 disc collection of every single Bond movie on blu-ray.

For nine of these films, this is the first release in high-def, and it’s sure to be one of the big movie sets for the holiday season.  They’ve released a very cool trailer to celebrate the set, and I’ve embedded it below.

The full details of the release are not known at this time, but the set will retail for $299.99. That said, if you head to Amazon.com right now, you can get it for just $199.99!

Very cool, right? Yeah, I thought so.  Just remember – James is kind of an asshole.

You ever find yourself looking at a licensed item and wondering to yourself how the hell it got approved?

That’s where I am today.  See, the merchandising world of Star Wars apparently hasn’t hit an equilibrium in its highs and lows. In turn, the fine retailers of comically large, chain covered pants at Hot Topic have decided to shift the seasaw to the side of bad with this giant turd – The Chewbacca Hoodie.

Covered in brown fur, and apparently so uncomfortable that even the dude who is being paid to wear it can’t look excited, this damn thing costs $70-$74, and most importantly, your shot at ever being taken seriously by a loved one ever again.

Click through fast, furverts, this one is gonna go fast as we enter the freezing season.
