Now this trailer I like, compared to the last one, at any rate. That being said, there are caveats: The most serious being that the Silver Samurai that appears in the trailer seems to be entirely CGI, which makes him look like a really shiny Cylon, instead of a man wearing samurai armor, which is […]
Feeling kinda ‘meh’ about “The Wolverine.” The only thing that interests me is Silver Samurai – there are a few shots of him in the trailer – and all he is is a guy in silver samurai armor. I guess what interests me is how faithful they are to the comic character.
I don’t want to like this movie. I am a Marvel fanboy and think that Superman is rather lame. Even lamer is David Goyer, who I will forever remember as the many who killed ‘Blade,” and was too arrogant to say “I’m sorry. I f%cked up.” Christopher Nolan produced the movie, whom I also don’t […]
Here’s the complete trailer for James Mangold‘s ‘The Wolverine,” complete with narrative continuity! Here, Logan/Wolverine (Hugh Jackman) makes his way to Japan, where it appears that he somehow loses his healing factor, which is bad thing when what looks like hundreds of black pajama-clad ninjas are trying to kill you. There’s a fight on what […]
Today has not been my day. The most irritating aspect of which being my attempt to watch Michael Bassett’s “Silent Hill: Revelation” via iTunes. I have no idea why things went all sorts of wonky, but I spent four or five hours from the discomfort of my bed trying to watch the movie. Though what […]
And I don’t mean Hugo Drax, the villain in 1979’s James Bond adventure, “Moonraker.” Casting for Marvel Studios’ “Guardians of the Galaxy” have been going on since mid-2012, and recently StarLord has been cast. Now another member of his crew, the lethal alien Drax The Destroyer, may have been found. According to Collider, Jason Momoa […]
I apologize for the earlier title, in which I wrote ‘Trailer’ instead of ‘Poster.’ I have posted before that Tony Stark in “Iron Man 3” is going to spend a bit of time on the Dark Side (which is an interesting turn of phrase considering Disney now owns Lucasfilm), and in the process end up […]
As far as I am aware, this image is from James Mangold’s upcoming “The Wolverine.” I know the image is from the back, but from what I can tell it looks remarkably faithful to the comic character.
It’s pretty well established by anyone who has any sense of what good comic book art is like that Rob Liefeld isn’t a very good artist (which is why his success has always mystified me, and goes a long way towards proving that it’s not what you know, but who) despite his success. Though what […]
I wish that people, be they directors or anyone else, would just stop talking about how serious or realistic their comic book-based movies are. It’s not only tiring, but it makes no sense at all. For instance, over at Collider there’s an interview with Zach Snyder, the director of the upcoming “Man of Steel,” and […]
