Gundam Double O Movie A wakening of the Trailblazer

ProjectGundam

The official title of the Gundam Double O movie coming in September this year is announced on the official site.

It’s called “A wakening of the Trailblazer”.


It’s “A wakening of the Trailblazer” – a space in between “A” and “wakening”. I’m not sure whether it’s deliberate or if it’s equivalence to “Awakening” for our Japanese friends. ^^;

Images shown are two designs of the card stickers to be given out as special prizes for the advance purchasing of the movie ticket from Japanese cinemas, which will start on March 27th. You can choose either type of the stickers at the counter, while stock last.

The price is 1,300 Yen (inclusive of tax) for regular seat.

The exact release date of the movie is not mentioned.

Iron Man 2 New Trailer

ProjectGundam

The new trailer of “Iron Man 2″ is up on Youtube since last Friday actually, but I only watched it just now, and,

Wow, portable Iron Man armory! O_O










Video clip is from Youtube. Follow this link to the website if you can’t see anything.
Premier on May 7th. Hopefully the story would be much better than “Transformers 2″
