It’s that time of the year again. Time to celebrate something that happened a long time ago in a galaxy far, far away. Somehow, within the past ten years, with the explosion of social media, a bunch of new “holidays”…

Yes, of course there is a lot of fuss going into Zack Snyder’s epic clash between the Dark Knight and Man of Steel presented in Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice.  It is going to be an insane battle, no doubt about it.  Will…

Talk about a celebrity couple. The Joker and Harley Quinn have been making headlines ever since Harley first appeared in the DC universe in 1992. Before then, the Joker was pretty much a lone act, barring a few short-lived team-ups…

I honestly am not the person who judges a movie on one piece of casting news, a trailer or a clip. I try to keep an open mind, especially if it’s a franchise I care about. But I find myself…

It was never supposed to be made. Stanley Kubrick was hard at work on another script when his wife happened to give him the book, and good thing she did.  The product of his resulting love for Anthony Burgess’s 1962 dystopian novel…

Gotham City and Metropolis are two of the best-known DC Comics created cities. Even if you’re not a major fan of Batman and Superman, you’ve probably heard of these fictional cities and some of the things that exist within them….

With the American Presidential campaign in full gear, and many of us being bombarded with politics on television, radio and social media, you’d think we’d be tired of them by now. But many of us are excited about the release…

Now we can all go on and on about characters like Napoleon Dynamite and Bella Swan and Joffrey Baratheon.  With their two-dimensional glamour and flimsy development, they are a disgrace to the industry.  Everyone knows that, and of course, there’s more than…

It’s sad that the days of the Saturday morning cartoons are gone, and even sadder that the Saturday morning cartoon adaptation of televisions shows is even longer gone. In case you’re too young to remember, or old enough to block…

Overalls.  Pagers.  Michael Jordan.  Who doesn’t miss the 90s?  It was a much simpler time back then.  You could create a stylish outfit with just a t-shirt and denim, phones were a long way off of being smart, and the…

The over 75-year-old Batman has always had fairly dark roots. But the nitty gritty Dark Knight we know and fear is now celebrating his 30th birthday. In February of 1986, DC Comics released Frank Miller’s The Dark Knight Returns, and…

First we had movie trailers. Then movie teasers (or two). Then trailer teasers (remember the tiny Ant-Man one?). And now… with Star Wars Episode VIII, we have production teasers. Yup, a little viral clip to show the movie has begun…

This past weekend, Deadpool obliterated box office records. Its $135 million opening weekend ($150 million if you count the US Monday holiday), made it the biggest opening weekend for an R-rated movie… EVER! It’s also the biggest February movie opening…

With actor Tom Holland set to don the Spidey mask this summer in Captain America: Civil War, moviegoers will have seen three different incarnations of the character in the past thirteen years. That’s a lot for one character, especially considering…

Marvel may have got a quick start out of the gate, but DC refuses to be bested. In fact, DC’s latest slate of movies is set to top anything Marvel has come up with and finally give comic fans what…

Many video games are spin-offs of movies, allowing us to play in the worlds we saw created on the big screen. But with the upcoming Warcraft movie, we will see on the big screen a world we’ve been involved with…

This August, Suicide Squad will break into a movie theater near you. It’s the story of some of DC’s most infamous villains who are freed from prison in order to take on a (most likely) deadly government mission. At the…

Wonder Woman, a headliner in the comics, animated universe, and pretty much every other medium in existence except for live action movies, is finally getting her chance to shine on the silver screen. The Amazon warrior princess is to be…

As clean as Monica, as cute (or complicated) as Ross and Rachel, weird like Phoebe.  Each analogy is obvious.  No doubt that everyone understands what these mean, even though they reference a sitcom first airing over two decades ago!  Whoops,…

Move over Batman, there’s a new billionaire vigilante making waves in the live action superhero scene. Since its pilot in 2012, the CW television show Arrow has been doing quite well in the ratings, so much so that each episode…

2016 will be very full of superhero movies again. There’s Batman V Superman: Dawn of Justice in March, Captain America: Civil War, and X-Men: Apocalypse in May, Suicide Squad in August, Gambit in October, Doctor Strange, and Sinister Six in November. And then there’s Deadpool. That’s…

UFC match between Ronda Rousey and Holly Holmes, if you watched it then you can’t really un-watch it. Ronda Rousey, self entitled “The most dangerous unarmed woman in the world” had a 12-0 MMA, 6-0 UFC score before UFC 193….

A lot of people raged when they found out Jared Leto will be playing the Joker in DC’s upcoming movie, Suicide Squad. They chilled a bit after seeing the trailer at the Comic Con but now everyone will go nuts…

There have been numerous articles popping up all over the internet in the last day or two about an interview with George R. R. Martin published by the UK’s  Daily Mail. They apparently did an interview with the Song of…
