Now take this with a HUGE mound of salt, but according to ComicBookMovie.com, Shockya.com, and numerous other sites, Tom Welling, who just completed playing Superman in Smallville, is being courted by Marvel Studios. Various writers then make a leap that would do the Hulk proud, and assume that the character that Marvel expects him to play […]
Marvel Studios’ “Thor” has pulled in $122 million dollars in the United States after two weeks, and $230 million overseas. Not too shabby for a $150 million dollar film.
Remember “Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen?” Or perhaps you’re like me, and wanted to not only forget it, but gouge your eyes out for having seen it in the first place.

If you’re a horror fan–and who isn’t?–you probably hold Tom Holland’s Fright Night high in your pantheon of horror films. It’s being remade by DreamWorks Pictures and stars Colin Farrell, Anton Yelchin and David Tennant and is directed by Craig Gillespie
