“The Walking Dead: The Complete Third Season” behind the scenes

This impressive set The Walking Dead: “The Complete Third Season” is richly developed characters, gripping action, and a good chunk of tragedy and gore. Perhaps there is something more powerful than the walkers and other humans that is coming after them but the writers and producers had the patience to make it interesting especially when a zombie bites things can be explained that it is not the bite that makes you into a zombie, it is just toxic and kills you and it is very possible that if someone were somehow “immune” to the pathogen that everyone seems to be infected with now that turns them into a zombie no matter how they die, the bite may still be toxic and kill them, but they wouldn’t turn into a zombie. There are several examples in science where one thing looked like it caused another thing and they were really unrelated when it was researched further but that is the magical part of this production and failed to disappoint all the fans, bringing the duo together for a fight that would end with Michonne (Danai Gurira) stabbing The Governor (David Morrissey) in the eye after killing his zombie daughter and smashing his zombie-head aquarium room to pieces. Many locations and scenes are incredible real and some zombies have their own personality and a past life in which you will figure out what happened to each other. Definitely two thumbs up for the upcoming series of The Walking Death 3 which must be part of your home entertainment collection will be available on August 27th in DVD and Blu-Ray.
Ben Affleck will be a remarkable Batman
Ben Affleck is a good actor for his new role in Batman so this shouldn’t be too surprising. Hopefully they thought outside of the box with this casting choice. According to the news says that Affleck’s Batman will be “an entirely new incarnation of the character.” Amy Adams, Laurence Fishburne and Diane Lane will be returning to reprise their roles in the film as well, which is slated to open worldwide on July 17, 2015.

Cantinflas is alive!
Galatview : Staff
In honor of Cantinflas birthday on August 12, Sony Pictures Home Entertainment is debuting with famous titles featuring the legendary comic through their Sony Pictures Choice Collection.
In case you’re unfamiliar, the Sony Pictures Choice Collection is a manufacture-on-demand service featuring never-before-released on DVD titles from more than 75 years of the Columbia Pictures film library.
The Cantinflas titles are:
Barrendero (1982)
Don Napo (Cantinflas, Around the World in Eighty Days) is a city maintenance worker, sweeping up dirt while dancing, singing and flirting with the maids in the neighborhood. One day, Don Napo comes across an abandoned baby in his garbage; the next day, a valuable painting appears in his trashcan. A series of wild events leads Don Napo to face crooked criminals, and he’ll need the help of all of his friends to take them down and save the day!
Conserje En Condominio (1974)
Úrsulo (Cantinflas, Around the World in Eighty Days) is a fast-talking wisecracker who finagles his way into a job as the manager of an upscale apartment building where each tenant is crazier than the last! Dealing with psychics, quarreling couples and young hipsters causing trouble throughout the building, Úrsulo handles everything with wisdom, creativity and humor. While dealing with many issues in the building, he meets Clodomira (Raquel Olmedo, Los Indolentes), a maid for one of the rich women in the building, and they find themselves falling for each other.
Don Quijote Cabalga de Nuevo (1973)
Loosely based on the legendary novel by Miguel de Cervantes, this film follows the adventures of Don Quijote (Fernando Fernán Gómez, All About My Mother) and his faithful sidekick, Sancho Panza (Cantinflas, Around the World in Eighty Days). Don Quijote goes from village to village with Sancho, often on a misguided quest to honor the knight’s confused sense of chivalry, thus leading them into hilarious situations and getting the duo into constant trouble.
ABOUT CANTINFLAS:
Mario Moreno, aka “Cantinflas” created a simple, universal character whose roundabout phrases and meaningless speeches confounded those around him, but delighted Spanish-speaking audiences for decades. “Cantinflas,” whom the legendary comedian Charlie Chaplin dubbed “the funniest man in the world,” began his career in the 1930s in the “carpas” (tent shows) in Mexico City. After early attempts to find his comedic voice, he embraced his own heritage as a lowly slum dweller and audiences enthusiastically endorsed this comic persona. With his tiny mustache tipping the corner of his mouth, a cockeyed cap over dark, disheveled hair, dirty vest and a rope for a belt, Cantinflas became the idol of the masses by satirizing the police and politicians.
As a pioneer in the Mexican film industry, he helped usher in its golden era. His foray into American cinema landed him a Golden Globe as Best Actor for his role in Around the World in Eighty Days (1956), but his comedic presence shined brightest in his Spanish language films. People everywhere identified with the struggles of this winsome ragamuffin, and when he died in 1993, thousands endured a violent downpour in order to touch his casket as it lay in state. His funeral was a national event, lasting three days and attended by the presidents of Mexico, Peru, and El Salvador, and the United States Senate held a moment of silence for him.

Tony Stark was just like the comics, a self centered weapons manufacturer who loves his scotch. His intellect was not watered down in the movies either as you can see how smart he is by technology he creates so for Avengers: Age of Ultron, Joss Whedon reveals in this week’s cover story that he’s stripping back some of Ultron’s abilities and will find a way to humanize him more.

Or the whole combo The Walking Death: The complete Third Season Limited Edition Blu-ray and the packaging was designed by Todd McFarlane and his McFarlane Toys company. Here’s what he had to say about his initial idea for this case. The best part of this one is more interactive, because consumers are going to have to fill up the tanks themselves, and you can get little hooks on the heads, so you can arrange them any way you see fit. Also you can hang them in a certain order, or you can just let them go to the ground and flop around. No one person’s case has to be exactly like the others.
