Grant Gould is a name that has become more and more known among comic and trading card fans over the past few years. He’s a personal friend of mine and also is the artist who designed the mascot for my toy blog, Mechazilla. You can check out his official website and art portfolio at GrantGould.com. It’s been a busy year for Grant, and freshly back from the San Diego Comic Con, he was able to take some time to talk with me about what he’s been up to and what new and awesome things he has in the works.

I fully admit that I enjoyed the Star Wars prequels. Not Jar Jar, mind you, but I did get a lot of fun out of the movies themselves, and I absolutely loved the Clone Wars cartoon that aired on Cartoon Network. It was with quite a bit of trepidation that I learned that Genndy Tartakovsky would not be working on the new Clone Wars animated movie and that it would be 3D instead of 2D. Since then, however, I’ve seen more promotional material and watched some footage and have warmed to the notion of the movie and the animated series that will spawn from it.
Today Lucasfilm dropped a brand new theatrical trailer onto the internet, and I’m growing increasingly interested in the movie. Take a look and see what you think.

There’s a new Star Wars movie coming to theaters, but it’s not quite what you might expect. Lucasfilm is developing an all-digital animated film called The Clone Wars to kick off their new ongoing animated TV series. Set in the era between Episodes 2 and 3 (like the original 2D animated Clone Wars series that aired on the Cartoon Network and now is collected on DVD), this series will delve more into the legendary conflict that set the stage for the rise of the Sith and the fall of the Jedi.
The last few days have seen a flurry of activity around this upcoming film, as what was purported to be a legit copy of the theatrical trailer was leaked onto YouTube. Within a short period, multiple copies showed up there, all quickly shut down by Lucasfilm. Today, however, Gizmodo has the real deal on their website. Check out the full theatrical trailer for Star Wars: The Clone Wars.

The eternally delayed release of the Star Wars comedy Fanboys got some good news this week when the Weinstein Company announced that they will be releasing two versions of the movie to home video. One version will be the original intact edition that was screened to rave reviews at Star Wars conventions. The other will be the butchered recut version that sparked a virtual uprising of dissent. Still no word on when or how the movie will come to theaters.
