It’s time for another edition of Trailer Time. For this installment we’re checking out the trailer for the upcoming action/thriller Nobody.
The film features Bob Odenkirk as Hutch Mansell, an “underestimated and overlooked dad and husband, taking life’s indignities on the chin and never pushing back. A nobody.” Until one day, he does push back. Hard.
After a break-in at his home, Hutch has had enough. The incident triggers “dormant instincts and propell(s) him on a brutal path that will surface dark secrets and lethal skills. In a barrage of fists, gunfire and squealing tires, Hutch must save his family from a dangerous adversary and ensure he will never be underestimated as a nobody again.”
Choice words from the film’s official synopsis. Sounds good to us. And based on the trailer itself, we have to say it, this movie looks pretty darn good.
Let’s hope the trailer does it justice. We’re pretty sure it does.
Nobody stars Bob Odenkirk, Connie Nielsen, RZA, Aleksey Serebryakov and Christopher Lloyd. It’s written by Derek Kolstad of John Wick fame and directed by Ilya Naishuller. It hits theaters on March 26th. Look for it on streaming hopefully soon after that.
Until then, check out the “Redband” trailer for Nobody after the jump. Yeah, we still need to do that. Sorry.

Some of these include the new Jurassic World trailer, Chris Pratt’s wardrobe, the new director of the Wonder Woman movie, the teaser for the trailer for the next Star Wars movie, more observations on AMC’s The Walking Dead, Christophe Waltz as Blofeld in the next James Bond movie and a whole lot more, more, more.
Picks this week include Chris’ pick of director Philip Kaufman’s classic film The Right Stuff, based on the book by Tom Wolfe, and Joe’s pick of the novel The Year of Dan Palace by Chris Jane.

This week on The Flickcast, Chris and Joe are back once again and ready to talk all things geek. That, of course, means movies, TV, comics and even a little tech thrown in, just for fun.
This week’s episode includes discussions about the programming on Netflix, the Breaking Bad spin-off with Bob Odenkirk, AMC’s budget decisions, the deliberate pacing of The Walking Dead and the upcoming Doctor Who TV special.
Also discussed is the recent controversy surrounding a contest to draw the character Harly Quinn in a rather compromising situation, other DC editorial decisions and policies, Michael Biehn and Linda Hamilton rumored to be joining Arnold Schwarzenegger in the next Terminator movie, the observational powers of stunt men, new iPhones and a whole lot more. It’s a big show and one you won’t want to miss.
This weeks picks include Joe’s pick of the movie The Chronicles of Riddick so you can see it before you watch the new one that’s just come out. Chris’ pick this week is the DIY Network TV series Make It Right, featuring Canada’s second most trusted person: contractor Mike Holmes.

Your the A&E network and you want to start competing with the other networks like AMC and FX with their series Mad Men, The Walking Dead, Sons of Anarchy, The Americans and Breaking Bad. But where do you go to find new shows?
Well, if you’re A&E, you might go to one of the masters: Alfred Hitchcock. That’s right, A&E is soon to release a new show that series producer Carlton Cuse describes as “One part Friday Night Lights, one part Lost, [and] one part Twin Peaks.” That show: the Psycho prequel Bates Motel.
Intrigued? We are too. Fortunately, we get to be a bit more than intrigued as the first six minutes of the show have been released by A&E.
Bates Motel stars Freddie Highmore as Norman Bates and Vera Farmiga as his mother and debuts March 18th at 10 PM.

I was never blessed with the gift of artistic ability. The extent of my ability was doodling in the margins of my notebooks during classes, or adding a mustache and glasses (and perhaps some devil horns) to a photograph in a magazine. Whether it was a poster, a comic book, or a tattoo I’ve always been fascinated with art and those that can make a living through it.
Around the time of WrestleMania 27, “Stone Cold” Steve Austin appeared on television with a brand new t-shirt designed by artist Joe Romero. I quickly found his online presence, Average Joe Art, and began following him on Twitter. Ever since then Joe has been pumping out great, pop culture-inspired illustrations. From Breaking Bad, to Walking Dead, to The Avengers Joe has added to his catalogue of comic-style homages to geeky T.V & film favorites.

In the wee hours of the morning (on the west coast anyway), the nominations for the 2012 Primetime Emmy’s were announced. As usual the list included some happy surprises, some ludicrous choices and even a few head scratchers.
The Flickcast favorites Game of Thrones and Breaking Bad both got some solid recognition in the Drama categories, while some of our Comedy favs, Community and Parks & Recreation, got snubbed for the most part.
Not listed in the main nominations list, because it is oddly not apart of the main Emmy broadcast, was the Outstanding Animated Series category. Both Bob’s Burgers and American Dad shockingly were recognized for their awesomeness, but the incumbent Futurama should be the odds on favorite to win. Oddly South Park, who lately have dominated this category, is absent.
Speaking of incumbent winners who extra-deserve the award again this year, Peter Dinklage thankfully was recognized for the second year in a row. In season one he was a bad ass, in season two he was downright epic. If there is any justice he becomes a two-time winner in September.
Check out the full list of nominees after the jump, and be sure to hop on the comments and register your biggest snubs and surprises!

If you’ve never watched the FX original series Breaking Bad, you’re really missing out. It’s chock full of great characters, great performances and enough drama to fill up ten regular network shows.
Yes, you can tell we really love it around here. Fortunately, the show is returning to FX soon with all new episodes for season five and just as fortunately (for all of you) FX is letting loose the trailers for the upcoming season.
Of course, we’ve got the latest one for you today. In it you’ll clearly see why we love this show. Bryan Cranston’s Walter White is a bad ass.
Check out the trailer after the break. Breaking Bad returns on July 15 to FX at 10/9C.

I’m always excited for NBC’s Thursday night comedy line-up, but lately something is missing. While Parks and Recreation has become one of the funniest shows on television, The Office just isn’t what it used to be, 30 Rock is winding down, and Community is on “hiatus” with no return date in sight.
However, the Community cast and crew is still hard at work filming. Joining the lineup of the already all-star cast and guest stars is Giancarlo Esposito, known best for his spectacular performance as Gus in AMC’s Breaking Bad.
In Community, Esposito will guest star as Gilbert, a long-time employee of Pierce’s deceased and super racist father Cornelius Hawthorne. Not much more is known except that Gilbert has some news concerning Pierce’s inhertiance, which should be sure to cause some hilarious hijynxs for our favorite students at Greendale Community College. Esposito is an amazing actor but we’ve only really seen him as super serious Gus, so it’ll be interesting to see him take on a more comedic role.
So far, there’s no concrete details on if, or when Community will return to NBC. And while it’s awesome that remaining epsiodes are still being shot and could just end up straight to DVD, I hope the show comes back on the air. In the meantime, we’ll just have to make do with little tidbits of news like this, as well as the rest of the Thursday night lineup, which is still pretty funny.

As is the usual practice almost anywhere were column inches or post counts matter, writers such as myself take to their keyboards and make lists. I am no exception and, with a great deal of difficulty and toil, have managed to cobble together a list of what I think are some of the best things of 2011.
I don’t really want to bore you with a lot of explanations as to why I picked what I did. Suffice it to say these picks are mine and mine alone. Also, they are not in any particular order, mostly because I find it hard to rank them that closely. Or, I was just too lazy.
Either way, here you go.
Movies
Drive
The Artist
Attack the Block
X-Men: First Class
Mission Impossible: Ghost Protocol
The Descendants
Thunder Soul
13 Assassins
