The upcoming Black Widow movie has a lot going for it–2017’s Wonder Woman has proven that a female-led superhero movie can not only be profitable, but revered bay both critics and moviegoers alike–but that doesn’t mean that it should take some very significant advantages for granted. First there’s Scarlett Johannson, who’s shown with 2014’s Lucy that a […]
The jury is still out, though what makes the most recent reorganization of DC Films not a bad thing in and of itself in that Warner Bros clearly sees that there’s a problem with their organizational structure and are working to address it. Unfortunately, it reminds me somewhat of rearranging desk chairs on a little ship […]
And while ‘brouhaha’ may be a little melodramatic for a film that’s earned over $570 million at the worldwide box office the story surrounding the development of the movie is far more interesting than the movie itself. You may have heard about a petition to release a Zach Snyder-cut of Justice League (despite there […]
If Justice League left you a bit underwhelmed, Marvel Studios has the perfect holiday gift! The teaser trailer for Avengers: Infinity War premieres tomorrow (and while I still think a teaser for a trailer is a dopey idea the trend didn’t start with this movie, and isn’t likely to end anytime soon)!

I think it’s very, very likely. Reason being, Thor earned just $449 million in 2011. It’s sequel, Thor: The Dark World, earned almost $645 million in 2013. Notice the upward trajectory? And do you know what those prior movies didn’t have? A Hulk! So, while Thor: Ragnarok has yet to released in North America it’s already […]
With the airing on Marvel’s Iron Fist the last member of Marvel’s The Defenders has been introduced to audiences (the others being Daredevil, Jessica Jones and Luke Cage), and I can’t wait to see them united. Mainly because there’s so many opportunities for drama and chaos with so many volatile individual sharing the same space. This […]
I absolutely can’t stand teaser trailers (or ‘Sneak Peeks,’ or whatever the hell some marketing department chooses to call them). They’re like regular trailers, except they give you even less information, which virtually by definition makes them very, very frustrating. The latest teaser from Spider-Man: Homecoming is no different in that we see Spider-Man clinging […]
I am not a big fan of DC superheroes, though I am a huge fan of Legos (though to be fair I was weaned on Batman; as I got older my comic preferences shifted). That being said, I enjoyed the somewhat goofy adventures of the Justice League from the cartoon, though I had soft spot for the villains, particularly […]
