The first six minutes of Zack Snyder's latest have hit the Internet, and they're definitely something of a sucker punch.
Against a narration that speaks of silent guardians and angels, the opening minutes of "Sucker Punch" show how leading lady Emily Browning ends up at Lennox House mental institution. In true Snyder tradition, there are copious amounts of awesome music -- a remix of Eurythmics' "Sweet Dreams" -- and slow motion used in the best possible combination.
After the jump, check out the first photos of "Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter," find out which Hollywood actors are turning gangster and learn the first details of the "Transporter" TV series.

One of the films we are most excited about is "Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter," so we're glad that the crew took our advice and got shooting underway in 2011.
