Presenting the highly anticipated, super, sci-fi, comic, fantasy movie, The Green Lantern, as animated right here at Sony Pictures Imageworks in Albuquerque, New Mexico!
Green made his world premiere at WonderCon 2011 today where 9 minutes of NM’s Own Sci-Fi fantasy Cowboys & Aliens was also screened.
Cowboys is in theaters July 29, Green hits screens on June 17…NM production, Thor will make its world premiere in Sydney, Australia on April 17, and THE AVENGERS is in production in New Mexico NOW!
UPDATE: Cowboys may not have taken the top nod for the single MOST anticipated movie of 2011 at the Spike TV Scream Awards, but another NM tocado film DID.
The event honoring the best in sci-fi, fantasy, comics & horror airs TONIGHT on SPIKE TV! N. Mex. is a gem in the desert housing all of the above over the past several years (THANK YOU NEW MEXICO FILM!).
Cowboys recently wrapped and absconded after their love affair with our painted skies et al over their many months long shoot in No. N. Mex.
Watch tonight as they’ll likely collect the honor of most anticipated and be sure to hit-up the Iron Man master himself – @jon_favreau to remind the Cowboys & Aliens director that we want a premiere!
DAYUM I wanna GO! The words, “at least” were screaming at me from inside my tiny brain as I rev’d and re-rev’d this week’s Comic Con updates and now I know why…at least TWO, THREE, FOUR NM films will be at #SDCC.
Thanks to an Eric (love those!) we got the scoop that the heavily Comi present Green Lantern film has firm roots in New Mexico!
As we told you here the super awesome Sony Pictures Imageworks is quietly in our midst and now we know that they are “heavily involved with post for that production.” Woot!
We’re so Hollywood New Mexico – every time I meet a new friend who tells me that they’re unemployed I assume they’re an actor. ;)
