This. Is. So. Awesome. What makes it so is that it obviously has a sense of humor. To see Jason Quill (Chris Pratt) having to explain who ‘Star Lord’ is great (the scene that he does it in looks like a homage to “Raiders Of The Lost Ark.” Plus, we get to see Rocket Raccoon […]
Originally when I watched the teaser for “Guardians Of The Galaxy,” I wondered where Rocket Raccoon was. It appears that he actually turns up, but only for a moment (he’s behind a clearly pissed Groot, firing a gun). Thanks to faraway for the eagle eye!
The full trailer for Marvel Studios “Guardians Of the Galaxy” is supposed to premiere later today, though a teaser has just been released. What’s interesting is that I don’t think that I have been so expectant to see a trailer, never mind the movie that will eventually accompany it.
I happened to be recently watching Don Coscarelli‘s “Bubba Ho-tep,” when I occurred to me that since Marvel Studios is working on a Doctor Strange feature (supposedly with John Hamm as the lead) he would be a perfect choice to direct it. Off the top of my head, there are five reasons that this is […]
Unlike in the case of Bryan Singer‘s “X-Men: Days of Future Past,” as of this writing I haven’t seen anything from Joss Whedon‘s “The Avengers: Age of Ultron,” though it was made known that Paul Bettany (who voiced the Tony Stark’s AI, known as J.A.R.V.I.S) would be playing the synthizoid known as the Vision. For those […]
That title sounds like a Robert Ludlum novel. “The Falcon Quandary.” Marvel Studios, I think, has run into a minor speed bump. Since they have no right to use characters that are referred to as mutants–because of a licensing deal with Twentieth Century Fox, made when the company was flirting with bankruptcy–there are no super-powered […]
If the blogosphere is any indicator, Marvel’s Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. may be on rocky ground. That sentiment appears reflected in its ratings. Speaking of which, they have dipped precariously since its premiere high of 4.7 (representing millions of households) to a rating of 2.1, tying a season low. That may seem a bit grim, but […]
The conclusions that I arrive at below, though logical, are pure speculation (unless they end up being accurate, in which case I knew it the entire time and am a prescient genius). Recently we learned that not only would Paul Rudd be the lead in Edgar Wright’s “Ant-Man” but Joseph Gordon-Levitt would be producing (and […]
Some people prefer Marvel heroes, like Spider-Man and The Avengers, while others prefer DC, and characters like Batman and Superman, though the line between the two for most is a bit blurrier than that. For instance, while I generally like Marvel, I grew up on the giant-sized adventures of Batman, which I fondly remember my […]
I hate to admit it, but “Lego Marvel Super Heroes: Maximum Overload” is much, much better than 2012’s “Amazing Spider-Man.” It’s made for kids, but works really well for adults, too. And it’s particularly cool the way whenever something crashes into something else that it breaks into squares – because everything is made up of […]
