I saw a giant poster for this movie as I was leaving the theater after seeing Tron Legacy and wanted to know more. Frankly, I don't think I'll be disappointed. Sucker Punch is scheduled to come out early next year, and I hope, will kick ass, in a totally girly cutesy don't mess with me way of course. The movie has a got a big name to back it up - Zack Snyder who did 300, and Watchmen, directs the film. 
Not only that, it's very deliciously steampunk (Oooooo I'm getting tingles) and I love the aesthetic and artwork already posted for this movie. I have hopes that this movie will also be very visually pleasing (like the Warrior's Way).
Anyways, here's the synopsis from IMDb:
An action fantasy set in the vivid imagination of a young girl whose dream world provides the ultimate escape from her darker reality. Unrestrained by the boundaries of time and place, she is free to go where her mind takes her, and her incredible adventures blur the lines between what's real and what is imaginary. She has been locked away against her will, but Babydoll (Emily Browning) has not lost her will to survive. Determined to fight for her freedom, she urges four other young girls -- the outspoken Rocket (Jena Malone), the street-smart Blondie (Vanessa Hudgens), the fiercely loyal Amber (Jamie Chung) and the reluctant Sweet Pea (Abbie Cornish) -- to band together and try to escape their terrible fate at the hands of their captors, Blue (Oscar Isaac), Madam Gorski (Carla Gugino) and the High Roller (Jon Hamm). Led by Babydoll, the girls engage in fantastical warfare against everything from samurais to serpents, with a virtual arsenal at their disposal. Together, they must decide what they are willing to sacrifice in order to stay alive. But with the help of a Wise Man (Scott Glenn), their unbelievable journey -- if they succeed -- will set them free. Written by Warner Bros. Pictures.

Movie: Sucker Punch
Organizer
After creating my AP Studio Art portfolio in my senior year of high school, I was asked by my teacher to create the following school year's planner. Of course I agreed, it was exciting I would get to design something the whole school would use! Mwahahaha! I photoshopped some pics and put it all together in photoshop. Here it is. :)
My Graphic Pieces and Process
A while after I had learned to use Photoshop, the fun part was and is to experiment. I really liked working with the filters, such as cutout, film grain, etc. My process when I create my graphic pieces is I first of all use all of my own photos 97% of the time, then I cut them, use the gradient, put them together and layer them playing with various filters for each layer. For example, layer 1 could be cutout, then on top of that I'll put layer 2 using film grain on another picture. I'll also play around with opacity (how transparent I want the layer to be), then mess around with what setting I want the layer to be on such as: normal, hard light, dissolve, saturation, soft light, etc. I'll basically play around with all these effects and the order of layers until I get the picture I desire or want. Of course, I will probably have saved 10 different versions of the same picture where the layering may be different or one effect may be, but I like both. After I pick a final one I like, I'll probably tweak it if need be with adjustment layers if I hadn't already. So that's the jist of how I enjoy creating my own work. It started about my senior year of high school 2007 or so and I created many of my works with this method and love doing so. The piece below is my most recent one, done in early 2009 I believe, so I need to jump back into that, I've been mainly working with straight photos lately. I created this on my own time, not for a class or anything. I believe this piece has at least 6 or 7 different pictures, all ones I took. If you have any questions about this just ask! :)
