When I heard that Edgar Wright revealed a test footage for his upcoming Marvel Studios film, “Ant-Man”, I was jazzed. And the Internet, being what it is, made me reasonably sure that someone in attendance at the last Comic-Con would have filmed it despite being told not to (under penalty of being banned from future […]
Remember when Marvel’s ‘Phase 2’ slate of films were announced? They consisted of: “Ant-Man,” “Thor 2: The Dark World,” “Iron Man 3,” Captain America: The Winter Soldier,” “Guardians Of The Galaxy,” and it goes without saying, Avengers 2. Notice who’s not on the list: Dr. Strange, which is odd considering that Kevin Feige, the head […]
Nowherelse.fr has a teaser for Iron Man 3 which looks very, very geniune. You don’t see anything other than the ‘Iron Man 3’ logo, but coupled with the accompanying sounds it implies a darkness that the prior films didn’t have.
This is an interesting bit of news. According to Vulture, by way of Superherohype, there’s talk of a reboot of Dave Stevens’ ‘Rocketeer,’ which I think is a really cool idea. The original film, directed by Joe Johnston, most recently of “Captain America,” didn’t do too well at the box office, earning almost $47 million […]
I know it’s a bit early, but mark in your calendars that the sequel to Marvel’s “The Avengers”–currently known as The Avengers 2–will be released May 1, 2015. And in other Marvel-related news, according to Superherohype James Gunn is the front runner to direct “Guardians Of The Galaxy.” I am not quite sure that I […]
There have recently been rumors milling about that Fox is high on Joe Carnahan relaunching “Daredevil,” though there appears to be a fly in the ointment. That fly being that, unless the film is in production by the 10th of this coming October, the rights to the character revert back to Marvel. This is happening […]
I don’t know how true this is, but supposedly Anthony Mackie is in the running to play the Falcon in “Captain America: The Winter Soldier, which reminded me that Marvel, in my humble opinion, has missed opportunities to introduce or use African-American characters before. And I get that the Ultimates version of Nick Fury happens to […]
Marvel Studios has confirmed that one of their upcoming films will be “Guardians Of The Galaxy.” My question is: Why do they expect this film to succeed? Rocket Raccoon? Groot? Bug (some may have heard of him from his stint with the Micronauts, but relatively few)? And yeah, I have been wrong before. After all, […]
Here’s the trailer for Sam Raimi‘s “Oz, The Great And Powerful.” I like the way the trailer (and I assume the film as well) start out in black and white, which provides an interesting contrast with Oz, which is bold and very technicolor. It also provides an interesting (and somewhat obvious) metaphor for his life, […]
Some may consider the image circled in red as ‘stealing’ – it’s the front section of an Eagle transporter, from Gerry Anderson’s “Space: 1999″ – which from a certain perspective is understandable. Though, if you look even closer, there’s innovation involved. When you’re working with a limited budget, sometimes necessity is the mother of invention. […]
