Daredevil Opening Credit Sequence

At this point you’d probably think that I’ve had a enough of Marvel’s Daredevil after my marathon session ended sometime around midnight yesterday. Well, you’d be wrong!  I’ve already started re-watching it, though this time I think I’l do so in a slightly more leisurely fashion, with an emphasis on tracking down any Easter eggs […]

Ciarán Foy Is Sinister 2

What I mean is that Ciarán Foy will be taking the reigns of the upcoming Sinister 2 from Scott Derrickson, who has his hands full preparing to helm Marvel Studios’ upcoming feature based on their Master of the Mystic Arts, Doctor Strange. The only film I have seen of Foy’s is his 2012 film Citadel (which plays […]

Tron: Legacy Sequel On The Way!

I’ve been saying that there would be a sequel to Tron: Legacy for the longest time–despite the fact that the Joseph Kosinski-directed sequel to 1979’s Tron was pretty uneven and didn’t actually make all that much money, relatively speaking. It earned $400 million on a $170 million budget, which isn’t by any means a failure, but […]

Netflix’s Daredevil Reviews Are Coming In…

..and the first I have read is from SuperHeroHype–and it’s pretty positive (effusively so, truth be told). In fact, I suspect that it’s perhaps too rosy seeing that it appears that the reviewer has only seen the first of a 13-episode series. Enthusiasm aside–after all, the site isn’t called SuperHeroHype for nothing–it’s a good sign that the opener […]

Reinterpreting Disney’s The Black Hole

A lot of critics attack Disney’s 1979 sci-fi blockbuster The Black Hole on the basis of science.  And while one level that’s understandable, it’s not terribly fair.  For instance one critic called foul on the black hole being visible. And while it’s true that according to science they cannot be seen–you don’t see the black […]

My Thoughts On Idris Elba As James Bond

This is the type of crap I absolutely hate, and Roger Moore should know better.  What I am referring to is an interview he did with Paris Match when he said that Idris Elba wasn’t “English-English” enough to play James Bond. And he could be saying a lot of things–though we all know what he […]

Is Jesse Eisenberg Miscast as Lex Luthor?

A picture has turned up of Jesse Eisenberg, who’s going to be playing Lex Luthor in the upcoming Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice, and he looks pretty “meh.” The main problem is that Luthor has traditionally been cast by actors like Gene Hackman (who played the character in 1978’s Superman) and Kevin Spacey (who played him in 2006’s […]

Tron 3 Shooting This Fall?

I’ll believe it when I see it. Take this with a huge grain of salt, for two reasons.  First, the last I heard Joseph Kosinski was aiming to shoot Gran Turismo (a racing video game), which means that that if the sequel to Tron: Legacy is indeed shooting this fall, the likelihood that he would be […]
