When Is A Movie In The Black?
If you ask ten people at what point a movie becomes profitable, you’ll probably get ten answers, each slightly different than the one that proceeded it.

Zach Snyder Needs To Shut Up
Sometimes the best strategy is to let the movie do the talking.
I Suspect I Know Who Mads Mikkelson Is Playing In Marvel Studios’ Upcoming Doctor Strange
According to Superherohype, Mads Mikkelson (Hannibal) will have a role in Scott Derrickson’s upcoming Marvel Studios feature, Doctor Strange. Assuming that to be true, they also let slip a little more information than they may have intended, because they also mention that he’ll be playing a villain. And since Baron Mordo is taken, there’s only one […]
Ant-Man – Review
“Ant-Man Shows That Great Things Come In Small Packages.” Considering how well put together Peyton Reed’s Ant-Man is, it’s a shock that just a few months ago a lot of people were talking about how it would be Marvel Studios’ first misstep. And I can understand–prior to having seen the movie– how one could come […]
My Last Ant-Man Trailer
I have officially reached the point of trailer saturation–when a trailer starts to reveal more information than I am comfortable knowing, as far as Ant-Man is concerned, at any rate. Like when Hulk caught Iron Man during the first Avengers–which was featured prominently in the trailer–I honestly don’t want any more surprises, no matter how small […]
And The Verdict Is…Ant-Man Is A Hit!
The reviews have started coming, and so far they’re looking pretty good. IGN and Comicbookmovie are very positive (in some instances gushingly so. The latter calls Ant-Man “Easily one of the top Marvel movies to date.”). Though things aren’t all rosy, because Alsono Duralde, from The Wrap says, “Ant-Man serves up jokes that don’t land and thrills that […]
Marvel Studios One-Ups DC Entertainment (Again) With Upcoming Infinity War
I admit, after learning that Marvel Studios isn’t coming to Comic-Con this year, that I was a mite concerned (though Marvel Television and Cartoons are attending) because that meant that DC Entertainment would dominate the convention with news and clips from Batman v. Superman: Dawn of Justice (still hate that title) and Suicide Squad. Though based […]
Summer Box Office: Can Terminator: Genisys Take The Heat?
I fully admit that the success of Jurassic World caught me by surprise. I didn’t necessarily think that it would fail, though if anyone had told me that it would be breaking records made by 2014’s The Avengers I would have laughed at such a ridiculous notion. That being said, what’s in its way even […]
Zombeavers – Review
“Watch If Just So You Can Say You Do Did (Or You Really Like Bill Burr). Other Than That, I’ve Got Nothin.’” Bill Burr! Bill Burr is one of the first people you see when Zombeavers starts, and maybe it’s just that he’s not too discriminating about the roles he chooses, but I was genuinely happy to […]
Crossbones From Captain America: Civil War!
Various movie sites have posted an image of Crossbones from the upcoming Captain America: Civil War and unlike most of the cast of Suicide Squad, he looks pretty awesome. For those of you that don’t recall, at the end of Captain America: The Winter Soldier you see Brock Rumlow (Frank Grillo) in a hospital bed after […]
