I recently canceled by subscription to Hulu, mainly because between free Tubi, Netflix and Amazon it felt like a bit of an also-ran (I had the tier with commercials because even at that point the value proposition never quite worked for me). It goes without saying that literally the day I cancel my subscription I […]
When I first saw a commercial for Ben Hernandez Bray’s El Chicano I was thinking to myself that maybe Latinos would be getting a superhero they could call their own, in the same way African-Americans led the way in making Black Panther (2018) into something greater than his comic book origins.

I don’t get it. Joe Carnahan is a big-name director. Hell, he’s not only directed movies like The Grey, The A-Team and Smokin’ Aces but the last I heard he was executive producing the hit NBC show, The Blacklist.

This isn’t surprising, if it happens to be the case, because the only way that Fox could reboot the franchise would be for them to turn over the rights to […]
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 […]
