Well here it is, another over-brimming collection of coooooool images from around the internet…

First up, the guys at Slashfilm have grabbed the first look at the Zombieland TV series and here’s what they have to say: ‘Many Zombieland fans know that, before the idea was turned into a successful film, writers Rhett Reese and Paul Wernick conceived Zombieland as a TV show. At the time, that sounded kind of nuts but after the uber success of The Walking Dead (not to mention the hit status of Ruben Fleischer’s film) the show is finally going to take its original form.’

Here is the new cast: Little Rock (Izabela Vidovic), Tallahassee (Kirk Ward), Wichita (Maiara Walsh), and Columbus (Tyler Ross).

USA Today have published three images of the cast from their upcoming ‘set in the same universe as Cars’ movie called, imaginatively, Planes…

The official Iron Man 3 Facebook page has released images of two of the new Iron Man suits that will feature in the movie. The first one, Mark 33, is called the Silver Centurion and is a fairly familiar looking IM suit only, well, silver. The other is the MK 40 and is, according to the art, hyper velocity suit called Shotgun. While we love all this, is there going to be anything left to discover when the movie comes out?

From Filmofilia.comcomes a new movie photo from the upcoming movie The World’s End, directed by Edgar Wright and starring FTN favourites Simon Pegg, Nick Frost, Martin Freeman and Paddy Considine, as well as Eddie Marsan. The movie sees the five play friends who meet up for a reunion/pub crawl and become the last survivors at the end of the world…

Over at shocktillyoudrop.com there’s a trio of new Evil Dead images. Nothing too exciting but still…

Empire have a special Star Trek/Wars issue this month and they’ve debuted three new images. In one, Zoe Saldana’s Uhura threatens someone with a Klingon disruptor, while another shows Captain Kirk’s lover Carol Marcus, Simon Pegg’s Scotty, Karl Urban’s Dr McCoy and Chris Pine’s Captain Kirk stand with a small craft (?) labelled “MC-9321 PHOT1093″ which some are wondering might have something to do with the genesis project? The remaining image has Heroes actor Zachary Quinto’s as Spock protecting Uhura and Kirk.

Marc is a self-confessed nerd. Ever since seeing Star Wars for the first time around 1979 he’s been an unapologetic fan of the Wars and still believes, with Clone Wars and now Underworld, we are yet to see the best Star Wars. He’s a dad of two who now doesn’t have the time (or money) to collect the amount of toys, comics, movies and books he once did, much to the relief of his long-suffering wife. In the real world he’s a graphic designer. He started Following the Nerd because he was tired of searching a million sites every day for all the best news that he loves and decided to create one place where you can go to get the whole lot. Secretly he longs to be sitting in the cockpit of his YT-1300 Corellian Transport ship with his co-pilot Chewie, roaming the universe, waiting for his next big adventure, but feels just at home watching cartoons with his kids….
