This Week in Geek- 4/17/15

It's heavy on the Galaxy Far, Far Away, this week, in Geek!

The Force Awakens- Teaser 2 First off, the elephant in the room. Star Wars Episode VII had a new trailer released this week- and it looks awesome. It shows off the new villain ,the new Stormtroopers, and an AMAZING set piece that looks to be a highlight of the film. So what're you doing here, if you haven't seen it, click through!

First non-film Black Series figure revealed!  Yes, Hasbro's 6" offerings are finally expanding beyond the screen, with Anakin's favorite padawan, Ahsoka Tano. I love the look of the sculpt- the people at  Hasbro did a great job making her realistic enough to blend next to their authentic likenesses in the other figures of the line.

Marvel announces Spider plans - Marvel has said though Kevin Feige that the new Spider-Man of the Marvel universe will be introduced already active, without an origina story, and will be in high school. I am personally  VERY much behind this plan and glad to not sit through a third telling of the Spider-Man origin.

Rocky Horror Picture Show to be Remade for TV.  As much as I love the idea of new Rocky Horror, I can't say I'm behind this. Glee had enough trouble with the FCC. I can't believe any form of faithful production of the show itself would be remotely possible on network television. Still, at least it could be fun, hopefully.
