On ‘The Guardians Of The Galaxy’ Pictures

Pictures from James Gunn’s “Guardians Of The Galaxy” have begun to turn up all over the Internets, and despite there being very little evidence  to base an opinion (an informed one, at any rate) everyone has begun to chime in about the quality of the film. It’s worth mentioned that I am talking about a […]

New ‘Thor: The Dark World’ Trailer

Now this I like!  Many of the beats are the same from the earlier trailer, but everything looks more personal, more intense.  The relationship between Thor and Loki is also given more attention, which is always a good thing. There’s humor present as well, though mainly of the relationship-type (though Thor’s response after defeating the […]

Could Wolverine Ever Enter The Marvel Cinematic Universe?

Possibly, though under some certain very specific conditions.  Marvel Studios has regained the rights to use characters like Blade, Ghost Rider, Daredevil and The Punisher, though Fox owns not only the rights to use the X-Men in features (which Wolverine is a member) but also the term “mutants” – describing enhanced human beings – as well. And […]

Disney’s ‘Planes’ Trailer

Watching the trailer for “Planes,” the latest animated feature from Pixar, I’ve noticed a pattern of sorts, in terms of the films that they release:  Namely, they don’t necessary make children’s films – despite dealing exclusively in animation of the computer generated sort – instead they make films that can be enjoyed by children, though not exclusively […]

‘Man Of Steel’ Review

Zach Snyder’s “Man Of Steel” is significantly better than I expected, though not nearly as entertaining as it could have been. That’s probably one of the most weasely summations of a film that I have ever written, but it’s fitting.  Much is riding on “Man Of Steel” because if it succeeds – and early returns […]

Aaron Taylor-Johnson Races To Avengers 2?

Aaron Taylor-Johnson probably has an awesome agent.  I assume that his is the case because he’s starring in the upcoming “Kick-Ass 2,” a reboot of ‘Godzilla” and now it seems that he may be cast as ‘Quicksilver’ in the upcoming sequel to Marvel Studios’ “The Avengers.” Quicksilver is the guy to the right.  Hopefully he […]

The Winter Soldier Revealed!

Now this is what I call a scoop (which I wish were mine;)!  Courtesy of thefuriousfanboys.com, here’s the first shot that I have seen of the Winter Soldier from Captain America: The Winter Soldier.  I don’t even consider myself a fan of the character, but this looks to be crazy accurate. I assume that that’s […]

‘Thor: The Dark World’ Trailer

This trailer has been around for awhile, though I am just getting around to posting it. The reason why is that it seems terribly “Meh,” which shouldn’t be confused with ‘bad’ or uninteresting.  It hits all the right notes, but doesn’t do anything that we haven’t seen many times before. I guess what I am […]
