For anyone that hasn’t seen Marvel’s “The Avengers,”–and considering all the moolah it’s pulling in, there are probably very few people who haven’t–get out there and catch what will probably be one of the best movies of the summer. For those who have, you’ll notice that NO time was spent exploring the origins of the […]
I was checking out iTunes this morning, and noticed that they have a free episode of Disney XD’s “Tron: Uprising” for download. Get it while it’s hot!
A few weeks ago a co-worker and I were discussing the Daniel Espinosa’s “Safe House,” which we both liked, though he raised a point that I probably would have noticed if the film weren’t as entertaining as it ended up being. That point he made was that the central premise of the film, that Denzel […]
The third trailer for Christopher Nolan’s “The Dark Knight Rises” came out a few days ago, and while it took me a few days to post it, possibly due to my current fixation with “The Avengers.” It strikes a certain mood, but other than the moulded rubber suits, has little in common with Marvel’s film, […]
If someone were to tell you that there is going to be a sequel to “The Avengers,” you’d probably say: “No kidding.” If you’re like me, you’d say something like: “Let’s see…it’s been out almost a full week in this country, and has earned over $226 million, while overseas its raked in around $450 million. […]
While the Black Widow acquitted herself well in “The Avengers,” you might be interested to know that she was not originally going to be the featured female heroine in the film. That honor would have gone to Janet Pym, otherwise known as the Wasp. If you ask me–and you didn’t–it’s better that she didn’t appear […]
Deadline estimates that the returns from Friday’s showing of “The Avengers” will be somewhere between $70-74 million*, and after seeing it, I can understand all the hype because it’s the best time I had in the movies in quite awhile. It’s fun, action-packed, has some terrific visuals though most importantly, it has characters that it’s […]
First off, I am not quite sure how “untold” this story is, since there were three prior films covering similar territory. Then, for some reason, they don’t feature Mysterio (quite possibly the greatest Spidey villain ever*) and the web-slinging scenes appear to look better than those of Raimi’s original trilogy, but do we really need […]
If you have seen any of the Marvel Studios productions, like “Iron Man,” “Thor,” “The Incredible Hulk” you already know that you should never leave the theater before the end credits (a trend DC tried to copy with “Green Lantern,” though not as successfully). That’s because the end of credit scenes have–so far–included hints for […]
My commentary on Daniel Espinosa‘s “Safe House” will have to wait till either later today or tomorrow because I found the latest trailer for Disney’s “Tron: Uprising,” and I have to say that it’s looking pretty good. The animation appears somewhat similar to work by Peter Chung, with his linear, lithe figures. There also appears […]
