Machinima.com has just launched its web series based on the Mortal Kombat video game franchise, titled Mortal Kombat: Legacy. Directed by Kevin Tancharoen, each of the nine-episode series will feature different characters from the games, with the first focusing on Major Jackson ‘Jax’ Briggs and Lt. Sonya Blade (played by Michael Jai White and Jeri Ryan, respectively).

If you are a fan of the franchise and are still bitter over the abysmal Mortal Kombat movies from the 90s, you’re in for a real treat with this new series. You can watch the first episode after the jump!

A new TV Spot for J.J. Abrams‘ Super 8 has just hit the web, although admittedly it is not as stellar as the full-length trailer that debuted a few weeks ago. Saying that, it is still worth a look since there are a couple of new things to see that weren’t in the original trailer, and anything getting the word out on this highly secretive tribute to Steven Spielberg‘s sci-fi films from the 70s and 80s is a good thing. You can head on over to TheMovieBox.net’s YouTube site to check out the TV Spot.

In addition, an LA Times interview with the kid actors from the film at the Kids’ Choice Awards has also made its way online, which, to the best of my knowledge, is the first time they have actually been publicly interviewed for the film. You can find the video interview embedded after the jump!

So, for those of you who were not present to see the footage, Warner Brothers has released 4 minutes of it online for all to see! Check it out after the jump!

AICN posted a video interview with Gary Oldman that they found from Absolute Radio where Oldman speaks cryptically about The Dark Knight Rises – discussing briefly how the writers have brought the story full circle and how the ending of the film is not actually in the script (although they know what it is)! I could keep telling you more about the interview, including what he says about actor Tom Hardy‘s role (who plays Bane in the film), but you probably would rather just watch the video, right? Check it out below!
