Predators - The Game

PREDATORS: THE GAME - NOW AVAILABLE FOR IPHONE, IPOD TOUCH AND IPAD


20th Century Fox presents

PREDATORS


http://itunes.com/apps/chillingoltd/robertrodriguezpresentspredators

Play as the fearsome Predator in this officially licensed game based on Robert Rodriguez’s new sci-fi, action thriller film, PREDATORS™. Hone your tracking skills and killing techniques to lethal precision as you collect the most prized trophies – heads of human prey. Unlock new weapons and leverage your stealth abilities to hide from enemies. Be wary of human fighters’ attempts to band together to defeat you. Teach them that resistance is futile as you eliminate them one-by-one.

* IGN: 8.5/10 rating + Editor’s Choice Award

http://wireless.ign.com/articles/110/1103610p1.html

“…What really puts [Predators] over the top is that it knows exactly what you want out of a Predator game. You want to maim, shred, and murder. You want to feel as powerful as a Predator. When you drop into thermal view and run up on your prey, hoisting them into the air on your claws before pulling them to pieces, you get a taste of that movie magic that made the original Predator such an enduring hit.The Predator is just a badass.”

* Gizmodo: This Week’s Best Apps

http://www.gizmodo.com.au/2010/07/this-weeks-best-apps/

“Predators, which also works on the iPad, looks gorgeous on the iPhone 4, and lets you slash your way through people with all of Predators tech: wrist blades, cannons, net-guns, as well as transparency and thermal vision – that one’s particularly awesome. Good controls, great gameplay, and all-around excellent human-slaying action."

* Modojo: 4/5 rating

http://modojo.com/reviews/iphone/predators/20100702/1059/

“…Predators is a must own. Not only is it one of the best movie licensed games out there, but it's also a sweet game in general. The blood, the attention to detail...just buy it now.”

* TouchArcade

http://toucharcade.com/2010/07/02/predators-review-taking-scalps-at-an-app-store-near-you/

“…Predators successfully combines fun melee combat, light stealth gameplay and missions acutely based on the Predator arsenal to offer a different and engaging Predator gameplay experience on the iOS device…

SDCC & Super7


TARGET: SAN DIEGO COMIC-CON!

Super7 will be exhibiting at the SAN DIEGO COMIC CON at booth #4729

We just launched a mini-site dedicated to our convention exclusive toys and autograph signings:
comic-con.super7store.com


Over 25 different exclusive figures...does that set some sort of record?

We're really excited to be able to bring our STORMTROOPER SUPER SHOGUN to the show for the first time as a "wide release". Previously, only fans living near our retail stores in San Francisco or St Petersberg have had the chance to see the toy in person and bask in its awesomeness. We are offering a special convention pre-order: purchase the toy online and you can select the "pick up in store" option and we will reserve the toy for you at our SDCC booth. Avoid shipping fees and avoid potential sell outs!

Additionally, we will be recruiting fans to join the SUPER SHOGUN SQUADRON!


Stop by our booth for stickers and other STAR WARS freebies!


For more information, please visit the dedicated website STARWARS.SUPER7STORE.COM

DiCaprio Turned Down Star Wars?

Well, that's what he says anyway:

Speaking to Shortlist, DiCaprio confirmed that he met with Batman Forever director Joel Schumacher for the part of Robin and George Lucas for the Star Wars prequels, but wasn't enthusiastic about signing up for the franchise movies...

...The 35-year-old said that "he didn't feel ready to take that dive" when quizzed about being in talks to play Anakin Skywalker in the recent Star Wars films.


DiCaprio didn't want 'Batman', 'Star Wars'

Help A Fan Out

Hey Guys,

I would truly like to go to Star Wars Celebration 5 in Orlando, Florida, USA in August, this once in a lifetime opportunity to see George Lucas in person, and I need about £1,500 to do it (plane fare, hotels and food plus entry).

So what I'm asking is this, please spread the word about my Ebay Auctions that will help towards my goal.

I will have to sell a fair bit more of my collection to get to my target but I'm sure with your help I may just do it.

To view the Active Auctions, scroll down to the next reply.

To view what I've Sold, scroll passed the Active Auctions.

Check out my About Me page over on eBay to let you know what to expect for P&P, suffice to say, they WILL be sent to you by the best option possible to ensure safe arrival.

Hamill @ CV

MTV Movies report:

Hey "Star Wars" fans! You know this year's annual fan convention, Celebration V, is in Florida at the Orange County Convention Center, right? Here's something you didn't know though: Mark Hamill is going to be in attendance. That's right, Luke Skywalker himself. Lucasfilm exclusively confirmed to MTV that the celebrated actor will be on hand to meet fans and sign autographs. He'll also put in an appearance on the Celebration Stage. None of the specific scheduling has been announced just yet, but the convention runs from August 12 to August 15, so count on all of this happening sometime during that timeframe. This is in addition to the already announced Jon Stewart interview with George Lucas, not to mention all of the other "Star Wars" fan-fulfilling craziness that's planned.

Although he previously appeared at Celebration Europe and Celebration Japan, Celebration V marks Hamill's first appearance at one of the U.S.-based conventions. Hopefully things will go better for him than they did when he appeared at BiMonSciFiCon on "The Simpsons." Tickets are still available, so head over to the Celebration website to get yours now.

BIG AT-AT Online Auction

Star Wars Fans Can Claim “First to Own” Rights as New Toy Star Wars AT-AT Debuts at Toy Industry Foundation Online Auction to Benefit Kids in Need
 
Two of the collector toys are available at a special eBay auction before hitting store shelves

Click Here
 
New York, NY | July 14, 2010 –  A charity auction launched today by the Toy Industry Foundation (TIF) provides a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for Star Wars fans to own the hottest new collector’s item – the Star Wars AT-AT (All Terrain Armored Transport) – before it hits toy store shelves next month.   Proceeds of the auction will benefit TIF programs that provide much-needed support to charities supporting children at-risk, abused, abandoned, ill or otherwise in need.

The auction began at noon (EST) today and features two of the new Star Wars AT-AT vehicles – a “must-have” in the collection of every die-hard fan Star Wars fan!  The auction will close at noon (EST) on Monday, July 19, giving the auction’s highest bidders nearly two weeks of “exclusive” ownership rights before the product becomes available at retail; delivery to the auction winner via express shipping will be provided by the TIF upon receipt of payment via PayPal.  

Generously donated by Hasbro, a leading toymaker and Star Wars master toy licensor, this colossal multi-level vehicle stands two feet tall, 28 inches long and 12 inches wide.  Holding up to 20 Star Wars figures, the AT-AT is loaded with play and electronic features … including a driver action figure and pop-out speeder bike, “chin guns” and a zip-line in its body to recreate the classic Luke Skywalker scene from Episode V.   

“The Toy Industry Foundation is very grateful to Hasbro for the donation of these fantastic collectibles,” said Jean Butler, TIF Executive Director.  “Just as every Star Wars collector will be excited to get his or her hands on this incredible toy, proceeds from the auction support the Foundation’s efforts to make play possible for deserving kids around the world.”

The auction is the latest in a series of initiatives to promote individual giving in support of the Foundation’s philanthropic activities.  The second annual “TIF Birthday Bids” auction celebrating the anniversaries of beloved characters and toys will kick off in September 2010.  


About the Toy Industry Foundation                (www.toyindustryfoundation.org)

The Toy Industry Foundation is a nonprofit organization whose mission is to bring joy, comfort, and learning to children in need through toys and play. While other organizations provide food, shelter and support services to children and their families, TIF sees to it that these children have toys and opportunities to play in an attempt to restore both fun and a sense of normalcy to their lives. The Foundation currently fulfills its mission through core programs including The Toy Bank™, public education initiatives, and grants to organizations whose missions are in line with that of the Toy Industry Foundation.

Robot Chicken Star Wars 3

Adult Swim's "Robot Chicken" is readying a third Star Wars spoof, this time with C3PO voice talent Anthony Daniels joining the cast, as well as "High School Musical" star Zac Efron.

"Robot Chicken: Star Wars Episode III" will riff on all aspects of George Lucas' iconic universe, following up on two previous Emmy-nominated specials.

"We're telling more of a linear story this time that covers the series from start to finish," said "Chicken" co-creator Seth Green.

Non-Star Wars News

You will notice that I now post Non-Star Wars news on a reasonably regular basis.

This is not for the lack of Star Wars related news around but for the simple fact that PR companies send me the news, be it a book release, the latest movie etc.

I don't actively seek out Non-Star Wars news but WILL post it if sent. To be honest, I don't actively seek out Star Wars news but DO use Google Alerts and Social Media to keep track.

Real reason for the quiet periods though is just general real-life stuff. I would love to devote myself to GEN Full time but that is just not an option.

So, please don't think I'm ignoring Star Wars when I post other stuff.
