Discover a new hero. Benedict Cumberbatch is Doctor Strange. See Marvel's #DoctorStrange in theaters November 4th! pic.twitter.com/kWvIPce6me — Doctor Strange (@DrStrange) September 27, 2016 Reading my blog, you’ve probably noticed that there’s been a dearth of Doctor Strange-related posts, despite there being quite a bit of material released over the past few months. That’s no […]
Richie Keen’s Fist Fight looks to be pretty funny (and Charlie Day looks pretty short, especially when you consider that Ice Cube can’t be any taller than 5’6, give or take) but it also looks particularly one-note. And while I haven’t seen the movie, I get the feeling that it’s going to end one of […]
And by ‘Sneak Peek’ they mean they aren’t going to show us anything that’s in the least bit interesting. Though that not quite true. Keep in mind that there was a controversy earlier this year over not only the casting of Scarlett Johannson as a character that in the anime was Japanese, but rumors […]
If you happen to be a fan of Daniel Myrick and Eduardo Sánchez’s 1999 found-footage horror The Blair Witch Project, then Adam Wingard’s sequel/reboot Blair Witch will feel very familiar. And that’s not necessarily a bad thing. Blair Witch follows the same beats as its predecessor, as James (the brother of Heather Donahue from The Blair Witch […]
Visually, Morten Tyldum’s Passengers holds a huge debt to Pixar’s Wall-E, Danny Boyle’s Sunshine and Apple’s design esthetic. In other words, it’s attractive, but doesn’t appear to strike any new ground. The same thing can be said of the story, which revolves around two people who accidentally emerge from suspended animation 90 years too (or was it?), […]
When I first heard of Underworld I imagined it would be incredible. Vampires and werewolves engaged in a conflict that’s spanned ages! A war that raged for the most part outside of human knowledge? Yes, please! Eventually I saw the movie and realized that vampires and werewolves go great together–that is till you shoehorn in elements of The Matrix, gun […]
I had never heard of Stacy Title’s The Bye Bye Man–or Stacy Title, which doesn’t sound like a real name, for that matter–before yesterday, but it’s a horror movie so it got my attention. What’s interesting is that it’s from STX Entertainment, who earlier this year released The Boy. It seems to me that they’re […]
As you can tell from the trailer above, one of Marvel Comics’ Ghost Rider’s (there have been at least three or four variations on the character) is making an appearance on Marvel’s Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. and honestly I am not sure what feel about that. Reason being, unlike over at DC Films and DC Television (I […]
Support LEGO potentially creating a LEGO-ized version of the Eagle Transporter from Space: 1999, one of the most awesome and iconic spaceships in television history. No matter if your preference is for the more cerebral Year One… Or more dynamic Year Two, you can’t go wrong. Though most fans of Gerry […]
Mattel hasn’t had a lot of luck expanding their IP into live action movies–unlike Hasbro, despite having success with their Transformers movies, which aren’t very good–which probably has a lot to do with their characters not being very good. Barbie? There’s an audience, but I am not sure how large it would be. Masters of […]
