Competition: The Lost Stars

Christopher Nolan’s Interstellar trailer
We’re expecting Interstellar to be out towards the end of 2014 and for the marketing to remind us that this sci-fi is from the writer of Inception and The Dark Knight Rises. I wonder if they’ll mention Christopher Nolan and Superman? The trailer doesn’t give much away but Intersteller will follow adventurers from Earth who […]

The first beginning has Verloc waking up […]
