In Case There’s Any Doubt About ‘The Avengers’

In case anyone has doubts about “The Avengers” being THE summer movie to see (and yes, I am including “The Dark Knight Rises” in that boast) then consider this excerpt from The Hollywood Reporter: “The Avengers is humongous — the film Marvel and its legions of fans have been waiting for.”  It’s hard to imagine […]

‘The Amazing Spider-Man’ Video Game Trailer

Here’s the trailer for the upcoming “Amazing Spider-Man” video game that’s based upon Marc Webb’s upcoming feature.  I like the Iguana character, though I am not sure that’s he’s actually a part of Spider-Man’s mythology (according to Wikipedia, there is indeed a character called the Iguana, and he’s linked to the Lizard). That being said […]

‘Iron Man 3’ Casting

According to Collider, Shane Black’s “Iron Man 3″ is casting soon, so if you’ve never been an extra before, it’s worth considering.  The last time I did it was on “The Dark Knight Rises” and that was a lot of fun (when you factor out that it was really cold, there was LOTS of running […]

Link To New ‘Avengers’ Trailer

I was looking for a movie to catch tomorrow, when I found this new ‘Avengers’ trailer via Fandango.  It shows all sort of interesting stuff–most of which I haven’t yet seen–and as far as I am aware it’s not available anywhere yet. It’s not embeddable yet, so I am posting a link to it.

Dreams of Flight Deferred

Marvel’s Angel, is probably one of the most underrated superheroes there are (of course, I am not referring to Archangel.  That guy is absolutely lethal) besides DC’s Aquaman–who’s really lame, by the way.  His only ability is that of flight–which was probably obvious, considering those huge wings. Flight is a weak ability, till you consider […]

‘The Avengers: Earth’s Mightiest Heroes’

I was watching Netflix, when I saw one of the new additions was “The Avengers: Earth’s Mightiest Heroes,” a cartoon that’s, essentially, a twenty-three minute advert for Marvel Studios upcoming ‘Avengers’ movie this May. The show is featured on Disney XD, which is owned by Disney (as is Marvel). I didn’t expect all that much, […]

Japanese ‘Avengers’ Trailer

What did we Americans do to be treated with such disdain?  Sure, the United States trailer for “The Avengers” delivers some cool superhero goodness, but compared to the Japanese trailer, it’s a tease. By way of example, here are two shots of the fraggin’ S.H.I.E.L.D helicarrier (for those not quite into comics, the helicarrier is […]

‘2010: Zombie Apocalypse’ is SyFy Good

“2012: Zombie Apocalypse” is currently on Netflix, and it’s “Syfy Good.”  By which I mean, for a Syfy Channel production, it’s pretty good.  Now, if just about anyone else had produced it, it would be terrible. Keep in mind that this is the same outfit that produced films like “Almighty Thor,” (which attempted to cash […]

The Full ‘Avengers’ Trailer Is Here!

The trailer for Marvel Studios’ “The Avengers” is here, and it kicks all kind of arse.  It looks remarkable, and just the thought of such iconic Marvel characters on screen at the same time is the stuff that fanboy dreams are made of. Which is why it’s somewhat ironic that the poster sucks so much […]

‘The Amazing Spider-Man’ on PS3

 Sony’s upcoming “The Amazing Spider-Man’s” main baddie is The Lizard, who was never one of my favorite villains in the Spider-man canon (I have never really thought why, though it probably has something to do with him being little more than The Hulk, with scales). If the film makers weren’t going to go with Mysterio, […]
