Posted on July 10, 2012

Let’s just say right now Call of Duty: Black Ops II is going to be a huge hit. It’s inevitable. However, that hasn’t stopped Activision from rolling out all sorts of promotional material just to make sure anyone not aware and ready to buy the game knows about it and gets as excited as the rest of us.

There’s a new trailer out for the game today. In it we get the first glimpse of Raul Menendez, who is, according to game producer Treyarch “the most insidious villain in Call of Duty history.”

Sounds pretty good to us. As we said before: Can’t. Wait.

Check out the new trailer after the break. Look for Call of Duty: Black Ops II to hit stores in time for Christmas.

It has been a long, and let’s face it, bloody road for Spartacus but the end is near. The final installment of the Starz original series about the gladiator turned freedom fighter and his band of bulky buddies will premiere this January. By the looks of the behind-the-scenes trailer, things will end pretty much the way they started: with blood, guts, and shirtless men.

Returning to the series once again are Liam McIntyre (Spartacus), Manu Bennett (Crixus), Dustin Clare (Gannicus), Dan Feuerriegel (Agron), Cynthia Addai-Robinson (Naevia) and Ellen Hollman (Saxa). There are some new faces too with Todd Lasance as Gaius Julius Caesar,  Simon Merrells as (Marcus Crassus and Anna Hutchison as Laeta.

Spartacus: War of the Damned picks up after the defeat of the Roman commander Gaius Caludius Glaber. With several major victories against Rome under his belt, Spartacus is gaining more support for the rebels but more attention from the Romans. Will they find a way to crush the rising hero?

HBO Sets Premiere Dates for ‘Boardwalk Empire’ and ‘Treme’

Posted on July 9, 2012

Even though Aaron Sorkin’s The Newsroom seems, at least after the first three episodes, to be not quite what we hoped for, HBO is still a great network to find high quality programming. Case in point is two of their returning shows: Boardwalk Empire and Treme.

Fans of those two shows can be happy today as the network has announced return dates for both of them. The third season of Boardwalk Empire will kick off Sunday, September 16 at 9 PM and will have a 12 episode run.

Treme is set to debut on Sunday, September 23 at 10 PM. It will run for 10 episodes.

Looking forward to both these shows. Now if we could just get some more Game of Thrones soon.
