A new trailer of Tim Burton's upcoming Netflix Original Series »Wednesday« premiered at New York Comic Con. The wonderful orchestral version of »Paint it Black« provides the right soundtrack and gets us in the right mood right away while the first clues to supernatural dangers and the crime/mystery plot of the series unfold before our eyes.

The trailer also reveals two important characters. It was already known that »Addams Family« actress Christina Ricci would be taking on a role alongside her successor, Jenna Ortega. In the trailer she now has her first appearance. She plays Marylin Thornhill, one of the staff at Nevermore Academy. The second revelation is Wednesday's encounter with Uncle Fester, played by Fred Armisen (Saturday Night Live), who's already giving off great Addams Family vibes in this preview.

The series starts on November 23, on a Wednesday of course.

It didn't took too much time after the announcement of MARVEL STUDIOS' »Werewolf By Night« until there was a big hype about it. Critiques are already praising the 52 minute long shortfilm and from today, we all have the chance to watch the flick on Disney+. Most of the staff the S.P.A.C.E Headquarter are also infected with the hype and cannot longer wait seeing it!

One reason for the high expectation is the unique black and white look, which is reminding us of the good old times of horror movies presented by Universal Pictures. But it isn't like Marvel and director Michael Giacchino are only trying to pay respect towards classics. They also go new ways and are obviously trying to combine the grace of the Universal classics with some decent portions of blood and violence.

»Werewolf By Night« tells the story of a bunch of monster hunters who gather at a strange place named Bloodstone Temple. Here they are remembering the life of their recently deceased leader. Then there is a hunt for a relic. The only problem with that? One of the gang is a godforsaken werewolf!

Too keep it short and simple: If you like Marvel and/or horror movies you should check out Disney+ this weekend. It surely is a great way to get in the right mood for Halloween 😄. We are really excited 🧐!

BIG APPLE is becoming the epic center of pop culture again, because today, NEW YORK COMIC CON kicks off in Manhattan 🥳!

After SDCC, the summer break was a bit tough at almost every manufacturer, but thanks to NYCC the party is getting started again - this time finally on site at Javits Center again!

We're looking forward to new products from Super7, NECA, Diamond Select Toys, Tamashii Nations and many more, who will have a booth in New York. The guys from Sideshow are making their own programme (booth tours aso.) online again via their own YouTube channel. If you want to follow it live you can find it here:

Next week we will have a round up on all the highlights and remarkable news for you 🤓...

It was recently announced via Twitter that the shooting of the latest »Planet of the Apes« part is about to begin next month. The movie, called »Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes«, will take place many years after the events of »War for the Planet of the Apes« and is scheduled for a release in 2024.

Wes Ball (»Maze Runner«) has been hired to direct the movie and we can look forward to actors like Owen Teague (»It«), Freya Allan (»The Witcher«) and Peter Macon (»The Orville«). Great news, as we think - and we're excited to get more information about the plot soon.

Our October product of the month is already giving you the creeps. The mastermind behind it all is Ygor the Hunchback from the hugely successful crossover of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles with the Universal Monsters from NECA!

Ygor is a fictional character of the Universal Monsters who often acts as a villain's laboratory assistant. Like the Hunchback of Notre Dame, he is usually portrayed as hunchbacked and submissive. The first Hunchback appeared on the screen in 1931 in the film »Frankenstein« with the name "Fritz". His first role as "Ygor" was played by Bela Lugosi in »Son of Frankenstein« in 1939. And in 2022, Leonardo from the Turtles can slip into this role!

We think the figure is really stunning, the artwork of the box is a feast for the eyes for every shelf and we can't get enough of him. Leo does best next to his brothers Raphael (as Frankenstein's Monster), Michelangelo (as The Mummy) and Donatello (as The Invisible Man). So if you're a fan of the Turtles and also like creepy creatures, you can't pass by "Ygor"!

After the first teaser during SDCC back in July, MARVEL STUDIOS dropped the trailer on »Black Panther: Wakanda Forever« yesterday - and this is really worth checkin' it out!

https://youtu.be/_Z3QKkl1WyM

Do some replays and take a close look as we will get to meet two - actually even three - new characters ;). Black Panther 2 will be the second longest movie of the MCU after »Avengers: Endgame« with a length of 161 minutes. It will hit theaters mid of November!

ABGESPACED is back from the summer break - and of course, the September episode is a monster 😱! So much new stuff came together and so many things happened in the last couple of weeks that we simply didn't come around the extra length of about two and a half hours of run time ...
https://youtu.be/C6sfXUEwmOo

Great that the weekend is in fron of us 😅. Tune in and accompany Tobi and Sven on their nerdy travel through Middle-earth and other worlds or galaxies where they came across the brand-new Boromir Art Scale Statue by IRON STUDIOS for example or found an awesome goodie for you guys. We're looking forward to welcome you 🤗!

It is almost October which can only mean one thing: It is creepy season again! While most of the world is still waiting for the release of »Barbarian«, the launch of »Smile« just has happened these days.

According to the first reviews we should expect one of the best horror movies of the year. A movie that can be able to give you some severe anxiety attacks. As we can already see in the title, the movie will shock you with the most evil smile you have seen since Pennywise. In the debut film of Parker Finn a smile indicates that point when you have to scream and run.

»Smile« tells the story of a psychiatrist named Dr. Rose Cotter that is one night confronted with the fate of a distbured young woman. She tells her about a creature that is hunting her for days and which announces its appearance with a creepy smile. Soon Rose will have a first hand experience with that smile.

If you want a first impression you should check out the official trailer:

DEADPOOL 3 IS COMING HUGHN! Yesterday, the damn cool teaser campaign on the 3rd DEADPOOL part started on Ryan Reynolds' YouTube channel 🤩!!!

In case you haven't seen it yet, please check out these two clips in exactly this order:
Deadpool Update:
https://youtu.be/Yd47Z8HYf0Y
Deadppol Update, Part Hugh:
https://youtu.be/Szj1iqYanFM

After working on the film for a while, Ryan tells us that Deadpool's first appearance in the MCU must be something special ... and this will definately be the case - because Deadpool will be bringing back his favorite anti-buddy Wolverine! How this can work out and why and basically at all did Ryan and Hugh explain in detail 🤣. Shawn Levy (»Night at the Museum«, »Free Guy«) is on board as director. The planned release date is currently set for 6th September 2024. Shit - this is still more than 2 years of waiting. Well, it surely will be worth it 🤟!

Jitterbug into our brains (yeah-yeah) 🥰!

Some like it hot .. You aswell? Then there's a special treat for you on NETFLIX from today!

The new Marilyn Monroe movie »Blonde«, based on the novel by Joyce Carol Oates, was wildly acclaimed at the Venice Film Festival. 14 minutes of standing ovations were given to the film and to Ana de Armas, who portrays Marilyn Monroe with such dedication and intensity that the Oscar nomination is almost certain! Here's the trailer:
https://youtu.be/aIsFywuZPoQ

If you look at the tomatometer on Rotten Tomatoes, you will only find a score of 52%. The audience score is only 45%. This already shows how much the film divides the audience.

The film is based on a novel and not on the biography. So not everything the viewer sees is true. But everyone should realize how much truth there is in the story and how tough the business is.

Everyone has to judge for themselves whether director Andrew Dominik's film is good or bad - possible from today in your own streaming theater.

And those of you who are endlessly in love with Marilyn and whose love got enchanted again because of »Blonde«, you should take a look at our product of the month May 2022, the breathtaking 1/4 scale Marilyn Monroe by Blitzway. We still have a few pieces left in stock.

The first teaser for the long-awaited HBO series »The Last of Us« was released yesterday:
https://youtu.be/rBRRDpQ0yc0

The ten-episode season is based on the first part of the video game of the same name and fundamentally tells the story of the game ...

20 years after modern civilization was destroyed, hardy survivor Joel is tasked with smuggling 14-year-old Ellie out of a quarantine zone. What sounds simple, soon turns into a brutal and exciting fight for survival across the United States.

The two main characters, Ellie and Joel, are played by Bella Ramsey and Pedro Pascal, who previously appeared together in »Game of Thrones«.

The trailer looks really great and is a perfect appetizer! A downer, however, is that no exact release date has been announced yet for 2023.

Last weekend, all film and series junkies got a glimpse of the upcoming highlights at the NETFLIX Fan Event TUDUM. These are our favorites!

Already on October 13th we get goosebumps with the watcher of the house at Boulevard 657. »The Watcher» is based on a true story and promises to be a gripping thriller:

The second part of »Enola Holmes« will launch on November 5th and will once again take you on an exciting and funny journey with Enola and Sherlock:

From November 17th it will be full of excitement again! Then the series »1899« will finally make its Netflix debut, we're really looking forward to it:

The winter will continue to be colorfully mixed in the film and series programme. On December 9th you can admire the animated film »Pinocchio« and maker Guillermo del Toro shows us a look behind the scenes:
https://youtu.be/oUoS-CBi4iA

One day before Christmas, on December 23rd, we can puzzle with Detective Benoit Blanc who the killer is in »Glass Onion: A Knives Out Mystery«. Here Rian Johnson exclusively showed another scene from the movie, which makes it even more exciting!
https://youtu.be/NUrK35whbL4

Two days later, the prequel »The Witcher: Blood Origin« shortens the waiting time for the third season of »The Witcher«, which unfortunately will not be released until summer 2023.
https://youtu.be/mawzQRu1Kc4

Then we still have three films on our radar, which do not have a release date yet - the only information is that they will flicker across the screens from 2023 and we now also get a little look behind the scenes:
»Tyler Rake: Extraction 2«, where Chris Hemsworth shows us that we can look forward to some great gunfights and beatings again. And two more hard-hitting action flicks, one being »Heart of Stone«, full of adrenaline with Gal Gadot and »The Mother«, starring Jennifer Lopez in top form:

Finally, we have a few highlights for our manga and Asia fans! On November 4th, we will get the animated series »Lookism«, a popular Korean webtoon:

We are excited and will put together a little round up early next week ...

For today's cinema Thursday, we have two films on our watch-list that we can of course also highly recommend to you:

In the run-up to the theatrical premiere of »Avatar: The Way of Water« on December 14, the first part »Avatar« is coming back to the cinemas again today! Surely everybody does still remember the first encounter with the film in 2009. It was a magical cinematic experience that truly amazed us. Such childish ecstasy doesn't happen quite often these days. If you didn't see Avatar in 3D at the cinema back then, make sure to see it now. Only in cinemas - on the big screen and in 3D - you really did experience this movie ...

Another start today is »Don't Worry Darling« by Olivia Wilde (Booksmart). The well-photographed trailer for the mystery thriller impressed us already. Even if the first reviews are a bit mixed and there was talk of a somewhat bloated »Black Mirror« episode, we will watch the film - not least because of Florence Pugh (Midsommar, Black Widow).

We wish you and us a lot of fun at the movies!

Happy Hobbit Day, dear Bagginses and Boffins, Tooks and Brandybucks, Grubbs, Chubbs, Hornblowers, Bolgers, Bracegirdles and Proudfoots!

On the occasion of today, we rummaged through our supplies and reduced 10 HOBBIT items by 33% for you! This offer is only valid today and of course only while supply lasts - so go for it 😃!

Dear STAR WARS fans, the next highlight from a galaxy far, far away is launching on Disney+ today: »Andor«!

Let's forgive the clever rebel spy Cassian Andor his 3-weeks delay, as he's ready to kick-off with even three episodes that will tie us up on the couch in full-feature length 😉. We are really hoping that the look and feel will be as epic and thrilling as in »Rogue One« and we're keeping our fingers crossed for Diego Luna!

May the Force be with him - and of course with you!

For tomorrow we have a little TV tip for you - but only if you are armed well enough for "true crime stories": from tomorrow, the ten-episodes mini-series »DAHMER - Monster: The Jeffrey Dahmer Story« about one of the most well-known serial killers in the USA will be available on NETFLIX.

The first trailer was just released over the last weekend, giving us a glimpse of how brutal and unscrupulous Jeffrey Dahmer was:
https://youtu.be/NVHHs-xllqo

For more than 10 years, the Milwaukee murderer killed, lured his victims into his home, drugged them, and then began his cruel game. The series tells about his deeds, but also about the errors in the system, which enabled Jeffrey to pursue his crimes undisturbed from 1978 to 1992. This is surely going to be a hard one and not suitable for weak nervs ...

Horror movie enthusiasts currently observe the happenings on the us movie market. There we can see the rising of a film called »Barbarian«. To be honest, it seems like the high box office rating can be explained with a lack of good competitors. But nonetheless it is remarkable that this movie gets lots of attention by critiques and fans alike.

They talk about another cult classic that will left you stunned. Especially the fans of raw and brutal movies can expect some thrills from »Barbarian«. This is surprising due to the fact that director Zach Cregger is totally new to horror. Before stepping into the horror genre he was mostly known as an actor and director in the field of comedy.

Maybe that was one of the reasons for casting Bill Skarsgård for one of the leading roles. He is well known in horror circles for his great performance in both of the »Stephen King's Es« remakes as Pennywise.

The plot doesn't contain any surprises: A girl, a weird guy, a overnight stay and a spooky cellar. You probably remember that premise from some other movies as well. If you still want to get more impressions, go for the trailer:
https://youtu.be/Dr89pmKrqkI

At the S.P.A.C.E Headquarter, we are ready for that movie and hope that we can trust the hype!

If you still have the A24 strip »X« in mind, you probably already have the prequel »Pearl« on your screen! This starts tomorrow in the cinemas of the USA. Unfortunately there is no date for Germany yet, but hopefully we won't have to wait too long. A24 has now dropped a small teaser for the »X« sequel »Maxxxine«.
https://youtu.be/ALNV4mdHGEE

The clip doesn't reveal much yet: you see the Hollywood Hills in 1985, instead of the huge well-known letters you find the eponymous name in white capital letters on the hills. The only survivor, Maxine, has moved to Los Angeles to pursue her dream of acting. The teaser is accompanied by the ‘80s song "Obsession" by Animotion. The graphic design of the movie title also evokes real old-school flair and we are already looking forward to the first real trailer!

Even if Kermit wasn't able to catch any glimpse of »Indiana Jones 5« so far on his excursion, his search actually came to an end on our September postcard: the very sought-after »Collector's Item«, the holy grail, the GOLDEN GONZO :).

After the »Cereal Killer«, our dear friend Marco (@stan_qbrick) made his second contribution to the S.P.A.C.E POSTCARD COLLECTION with this stunning photo. We can only say: Yaaaay - and thanks, Marco, for this wonderful motif!
