Oh yeah, I forgot to mention that Joseph Gordon-Levitt is supposedly being considered for the role of Peter Quill on Marvel’s upcoming “Guardians Of The Galaxy.” That’s an interesting bit of news, though not for the reasons that are often quoted. If you read further, you’ll probably hear lots of mentions of his performance in […]
When I heard that Edgar Wright revealed a test footage for his upcoming Marvel Studios film, “Ant-Man”, I was jazzed. And the Internet, being what it is, made me reasonably sure that someone in attendance at the last Comic-Con would have filmed it despite being told not to (under penalty of being banned from future […]
I was over at WorstPreviews yesterday, and they had an article saying that the meeting between Marvel and Fox execs was over a co-financing deal for a “Daredevil” reboot. This sounds to me like either deliberate misdirection, or nonsense (though on whose part, I can’t say). The problem for me is: How can Twentieth Century […]
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 […]
If you have seen any of the Marvel Studios productions, like “Iron Man,” “Thor,” “The Incredible Hulk” you already know that you should never leave the theater before the end credits (a trend DC tried to copy with “Green Lantern,” though not as successfully). That’s because the end of credit scenes have–so far–included hints for […]
The trailer for Marvel Studios’ “The Avengers” is here, and it kicks all kind of arse. It looks remarkable, and just the thought of such iconic Marvel characters on screen at the same time is the stuff that fanboy dreams are made of. Which is why it’s somewhat ironic that the poster sucks so much […]
Edited 7/25 917, 949, 950, 951 If you’re looking for a Captain America whose roots drink heavily of the 1940’s, you’re in the wrong movie. If you’re looking for nostalgic entertainment of a time that’s in the vein of Indiana Jones, you’re found it. Karina Longworth, of The Village Voice, criticizes Marvel Studios’ “Captain America: […]
Comic book characters have been on television and in movies for many years, though the publishers of such characters have in the past been more numerous. These days, most superhero films either come from either Marvel Studios (a division of Walt Disney, and based upon characters like Spider-Man, Captain America, The Fantastic Four, Thor, the […]
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.
Not only is Marvel Studios “Thor” is on my list of must-see movies for the summer, it has been getting some good early reviews. That being said, after watching this clip from Conan my confidence in the the film was shaken somewhat.
