“Superheroes” will be at the National Museum of American History till September 2 and if you’re into either comics or superhero-based movies you might want to catch it. The exhibition hosts various memorabilia and props from the Tim Burton Batman movies and other characters like Wonder Woman, Captain America and Wolverine. It’s not as extensive […]
It’s been estimated that Marvel Studios’ Captain Marvel will bow somewhere in the ballpark $100 million. By way of comparison–because let’s be honest: You knew it was coming–DC Films’ Wonder Woman had a $105 million debut, so all signs point to Captain Marvel surpassing it.

Sorry, I don’t buy it Wonder Woman as the ‘highest-grossing superhero origin movie of all time. Reason being, it neglect a little movie called Spider-Man: Homecoming. Spider-Man isn’t an origin movie, you say? That’s where we’ll have to differ (because it is). This iteration of Spider-Man is first introduced in Captain America: Civil War so […]
