We’re eagerly waiting the release of Zach Snyder’s MAN OF STEEL. After loving his take on the WATCHMEN and being blown away by the epic cinematography of 300, this version of Super Man promises to be equally grandiose. After watching the trailer Snyder’s take on the MAN OF STEEL feels darker, gritty and more natural than its predecessors. In WATCHMEN Snyder showed us the dark side of super heroes and how they reveled in their flawed humanity. Snyder seems to be sending Clark Kent down a lonely road where he’ll wrestle with who he is and his home on Earth. We’re all ready for the sweeping camera shots, flying scenes and all around badassery that this MAN OF STEEL has to offer. I think this is the vision of Super Man we’ve been waiting for. Fingers crossed! MAN OF STEEL is out June 14th 2013. Get ready.

Land Rover has always married the love of the outdoors with high-end performance. So it should come as no surprise that they would team up with a group of talented Parkour athletes for their latest video. If you’ve ever seen any of the impressive wall jumping videos on Youtube, the moves of these four Parkour athletes will look familiar. In the latest Land Rover commercial these four Parkour athletes use their skills to conquer the great outdoors, scaling the same terrain that Land Rover is known for maneuvering. The athletes scale boulders, flip over rivers and complete rolling flips off the edge of cliffs with grace and seeming weightlessness in unison. With much the same fluidity that you might see a prima ballerina execute her dance moves on the stage, these four athletes glide through the woods, over the rocks and in between blades of tall grasses- effectively turning the outdoors into their own stage.The Parkour athletes’ fluid movements and feats of balance echo Land Rover’s ability to navigate any terrain from the gritty urban streets to the country and beyond.

Sponsored Video: Cornetto’s Tasty Cupidity Film Series
Practically everyone can remember a time in his or her childhood when they got to eat a Cornetto ice cream cone, it starts out with an ice cream and topping swirl and ends in a tasty burst of chocolate. Cornetto took the same approach in creating their new series of short films called Cupidity. Each film is highly cinematic and like the Cornetto cones themselves, reveal something new in every act. The films take us around the globe in Istanbul, Hong Kong, New York and Los Angeles, showing off a beautifully filmed vignette showcasing each city.
The Cupidity series of short films Cornetto created are tales of love from a teenager’s perspective- a time when love is grandiose and mysterious, the stuff of fairy tales. The film featured here is called Kismet Diner and is set in a cozy, fifties style diner. The story revolves around Laura, the adorably shy waitress with a gift for singing. The story reveals itself in four acts, each act getting the viewer closer to the “choclately burst” at the end. The whimsical story and storybook setting calls to mind the charm of movies like Amelie.
Cupidity is an interesting project for an ice cream company to take on and certainly one that is blurring the lines between advertising and content. We solute Cornetto for pushing the boundaries of their ad campaigns and adding a creative bend to how they market their brand.
