I guess we were incorrect when we reported last week that this poster would be the final one sheet for Toy Story 3. Today Empire has released another fun looking poster for the animated film from Disney and Pixar. Hitting theaters (in 3D, of course) this summer, Toy Story 3 reunites the entire gang of toys who have been donated to a day care center after Andy heads off to college. The trailer for this is fantastic and the movie is one of my most anticipated of the summer. Check out the full poster after break.

Sarah Killen follows many of her favorite celebrities on the social media network known as Twitter. It wasn’t until one of them decided to follow her back that her life was turned upside down. Former NBC talk show host Conan O’ Brien has over half a million followers on his Twitter account. But until recently he opted to not follow anyone at all. That was until he decided to follow one person at random. That random stranger was Michigan teenager Sarah Killen who became the one and only person O’Brien follows. In the course of 24 hours, Killen’s own Twitter, which consisted of three followers, exploded with over 150 new followers every minute. After one week of being the only person Conan O’Brien follows, her current amount of Twitter followers is over 20,000 and growing.

A few of the best websites for finding these things are Bustedtees, Snorgtees, 6dollarshirts, and 80stees. Check out some of my favorite designs below.

Fanboyz.net was launched on February 1st 2009, and over the last year we have written a ton of news, movie reviews, editorials, and more! We began as a forum for us to write about our passion of movies, comics, television, and video games; and since then this site has grown tremendously. We had a blast covering the 2009 San Diego Comic Con, between our entire staff we saw just about every movie from 2009, and we have big plans for 2010. Of course, we would not be anywhere without our fans and faithful readers. You are truly the reason we do this (besides we love what we do) and we look forward to another great year of movies, comics, television, and video games. Thank you for your support. Here is to another great year!

Yahoo Movies has this 22-minute video which is a behind-the-scenes look at Avatar featuring commentary from various cast members.

The interviews on this feature consist of cast members as well as the technical crew who explain the work they did behind-the-scenes. This is an interesting feature that I recommend you check out after the break.

Jonah Jameson, but the rumor mill is churning with big Hollywood names.

People who practice cosplay, or dressing up in costumes for conventions and events, typically go all out for their outfits. Most commonly seen cosplay outfits usually revolve around Star Wars and various anime characters, but one Colorado man created an epically awesome War Machine suit based on the character from Iron Man 2. The suit looks like a hybrid between the footage we have seen in the trailer and basic designs from the comics. The level of design is stunning, and any fan of Iron Man will enjoy the effort put into creating the suit. Below are a few of the best pictures highlighting the outfit, but click here to see the forum where all of the pictures have been placed.

Here’s a funny website popped up a few months back called CarlWeathersforMayor.com. The site is a fake campaign link for Carl Weathers running for mayor of New Orleans. Back in 2003 he did a skit for SNL where he mentioned the fact that Arnold Schwarzenegger and Jessie Ventura both were elected as Governors of their state. He references the fact that they both were in the film Predator, and he was as well (”I was the black guy”). Someone took it upon themselves to make a site petitioning the citizens of his native New Orleans to elect him as mayor. He has denied running but finds the attention amusing. Check out the skit from SNL below.

Earlier this month we showed you a first look at The A-Team movie directed by Joe Carnahan. Today we have a first look at the cast which includes Sharlto Copley as Capt. “Howling Mad” Murdock, Bradley Cooper as Lt. Templeton “Faceman” Peck, Liam Neeson as Col. John “Hannibal” Smith, and Quinton “Rampage” Jackson as Sgt. Bosco “B.A.” Baracus. The A-Team will be a big screen adaptation of the popular 1980’s television show by the same name. Director Joe Carnahan (Smokin’ Aces) will bring his A-Team to theaters next summer for a June 2010 release. The A-Team is about a group of Iraq War veterans looks to clear their name with the U.S. military, who suspect the four men of committing a crime for which they were framed. This sounds like a fun summe popcorn movie and the photo above is pretty badass. Look for more A-Team coverage in the near future!

Internet giant YouTube is looking at expanding its operation to include movie rentals. Variety is reporting that the media website could be striking up a deal with the movie studios to offer rentals for new release movies. This is an interesting move which could put in jeopardy the function of video rental stores such as Blockbuster and Hollywood Video. Today Slashfilm has an article about retail chain Blockbuster closing down 20% of their stores in the near future. This is due to companies like Netflix offering movie rentals without having to even leave your living room. YouTube is in talks with Lionsgate, Sony, Warner Brothers, and MGM to bring their movies to the masses via the web.
