More fantastic videos featuring Deadpool running around on the set of Tim Miller's superhero film have surfaced online.

From today to April 16, Vancouver's Georgia Viaduct will be seeing a lot of action as Deadpool films scenes there. It will cause traffic headaches for commuters in the area, but getting to see Ryan Reynolds (Green Lantern) run around dressed as The Merc With A Mouth carrying his swords and guns might ease their pain a bit.

Check out the Deadpool set videos below.

"Iron Man" star Robert Downey Jr. took to Twitter to tease a "big" "Avengers" announcement on tomorrow's episode of "Good Morning America" and offered a clue as to what that announcement might be with an ambiguous photo. Not to be one upped, the "Good Morning America" and "Jimmy Kimmel Live's" Twitter accounts provided a second and third clue for the announcement.

Each picture displays piece of a logo and a close up of an Avenger's costume, with one for Iron Man, Hawkeye and Captain America so far. The announcement could tackle a number of topics, from the other unannounced characters who will appear in the film to Julie Deply and Linda Cardellini's roles to an announce about "Captain America: Civil War," which just started filming.

"Avengers: Age of Ultron" opens on May 1.

Sure, we already spotlighted some of the life-size statues from Hot Toys’ “Marvel’s Avengers: Age of Ultron Exhibition,” but on the eve of the tour’s first stop in Hong Kong, the company has revealed a peek at the incredible Hulkbuster vs. Hulk.

Measuring about 13 feet tall, the display — it’s outside Hysan Place in Causeway Bay — features not only the aforementioned life-size statues, but also the expected debris, and, yes, even smoke effects.

The exhibition kicks off Friday in Hong Kong before heading to Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia; Taipei, Taiwan; Jakarta, Indonesia; Vivo City, Singapore; Quezon City, Philippines; Bangkok, Thailand; and finally Tokyo.

Figures Toy Company to release reproduction of Mego Batcave

From ComicBookResources.com

No, this isn’t a belated April Fools’ Day joke, Figures Toy Company plans to release reproductions of not only Mego’s Batcave playset but also Aquaman vs. The Great White Shark.

They were originally released in the early 1970s as part of Mego’s World’s Great Super Heroes line of 8-inch dolls (excuse me, action figures). While I can recall desperately wanting the Batcave for Christmas one year — my brother and I had several of the DC and Marvel characters* — I can’t remember the Aquaman/shark set. But, hey, it’s a shark. What kid wouldn’t want that?

The Batcave playset comes with a flashing battery-operated Basignal, Batpole, Batcomputer and secret entrance. As the box clearly states, however, “Doll Figures Not Included’ (True story: Mego repurposed the Batcave for its Planet of the Apes Village Playset). Aquaman vs. The Great White Shark includes, well, Aquaman and the shark.

No details about price or release date have been revealed, but both sets are expected to arrive later this year.

* Their gloves, which we lost with regularity (they simply refused to stay on), haunted our house for years, long after the dolls were gone.

Machete Kills Again... In Space To Begin Filming This Year

Danny Trejo has starred in Robert Rodriguez's low-budget action-comedy films Machete (2010) and Machete Kills(2013). The two are working together once again on a third feature film in the series, Machete Kills Again... In Space.

"Robert and I are going to start to do Machete Kills in Space, so that's going to be awesome," Danny Trejo told Halloween Daily News. "We're going to be working on it this year."

A fake trailer for Machete Kills Again... In Space preceded Machete Kills and it featured Trejo wielding a machete that lights up like a lightsaber. Some had thought it wouldn't get made because Machete Kills underperformed at the box office. It only cost $20M to make, but it only grossed $15M at the box office.
