The trailer for Marc Webb’s “The Amazing Spider-Man 2” just popped up, and it feels – and sounds – like a Michael Bay Transformers film. So many cars flying about, so many explosions! This must be what happens when a director being given too much money is combined with rebooting a property too soon: You […]
We weren’t present at his conferences with his mutant charges. Who knows what he said or how he conducted himself? Though I wouldn’t put my money on this interpretation.
Over the years, there have quite a few Batmobiles, with the vehicle changing whenever a new director helmed the franchise. For instance, here’s the Batmobile that appeared in the Tim Burton film. The next version is Joel Schumacher’s. It’s a bit garish though there’s no denying that it’s a dynamic-looking vehicle. Schumacher, if I recall, […]
As far as I was aware, the only footage of Edgar Wright’s “Ant-Man” were either storyboards, one of which I have included below, crude FX tests (which I have not) or pirated footage that also looked pretty bad. Imagine my surprise to learn that Machinima posted a really comprehensive view of the trailer already (perhaps […]
Before seeing Alan Taylor’s follow-up to “Thor,” “Thor: The Dark World,” I happened to read a few reviews. Some were particularly insulting and mean-spirited, while others seemed not to have seen the first film, which is OK; but don’t complain about understanding the origin of Thor and the rest of the Asgardians when you can’t motivate […]
Marvel Studios has done it again. With movies they were the first to create a united universe of characters that began with Iron Man, and continued with “The Incredible Hulk,” “Captain America: The First Avenger” and “Thor,” culminating with the blockbuster, “The Avengers.” Now they’re bringing the same approach of a unified universe to Netflix, […]
I hate to admit it, but I don’t like this trailer. The storyline from the X-Men comics was grand in scope, and so epic that it literally reverberated through time. This trailer shows very little of that. That being said, Bryan Singer could be holding his cards close to the vest, but when the trailer […]
I know, trailers always look good, after all, they’re showing the best of the movie. That being said, the new trailer for “Captain America: The Winter Soldier” sets all sort of standards for awesomeness. From what I can see there appears to be a traitor (or perhaps signs of a power struggle) within S.H.I.E.L.D. I […]
Superherohype has revealed a new poster for Chris Evans’ upcoming Marvel Studios movie (which has been described as a political thriller in the vein of “Three Days of the Condor,” which is awesome because that’s a great movie and ‘Soldier’ also happens to star Robert Redford, who also starred in ‘Condor.’ In the poster, Cap […]
Marvel Studios is on a roll. Earlier this year “Iron Man 3” earned $1.2 billion worldwide, while the year before that “The Avengers” earned over $1.5 billion. Even with characters that aren’t necessarily as popular, like Thor and Captain America, Marvel is making a mint. In fact, they are so confident about their prospects that […]
