Marvel Studios was the first studio to create a interlinked series of movies– known as the Marvel Cinematic Universe or MCU–based upon preexisting properties (like Iron Man, Thor, Captain America and the Hulk) that culminated in event movies (such as The Avengers and Avengers: Age of Ultron) that featured all (or the bulk of) the […]
Of course the production isn’t (though the headline probably grabbed your attention, if only because it’s so asinine) though it’s shaping up to be a particularly troubled one. First, Seth Grahame-Smith left due to ‘creative differences’–a term that is so vague that it could literally mean just about anything–now according to Comicbook.com his replacement, Rick […]

It also looks confining, when it should allow movement (I assume that the show’s producers will say that it’s […]
Do you ever get the feeling that someone is trying to pull the wool over your eyes? I ask because many outlets, including the New York Daily News and Superherohype, have posted a picture of costume that would be worn by Grant Gustin in the CW Network action series “The Flash.” My problem is that, […]
