When’s the Comic Book Burnout?

0

By Carly Fjeld on May 7th, 2015

Three years ago this week, Joss Whedon and Marvel made history. A movie featuring a ragtag group of superheroes, a little ditty called The Avengers, became the third highest grossing film of all time. It had the biggest opening weekend ever in the U.S. and Canada. Batman did pretty well, too. The Dark Knight Rises and…

SECOND OPINION: Avengers – Age of Ultron (2015)

0

By J.W.Allen on May 4th, 2015

Ever since The Avengers was released in 2012, DC comics has been desperately trying to wrangle their own characters together to compete with the Marvel Juggernaut.   However, before Batman and Superman have even warmed up for their much touted ‘fight’, Joss Whedon has deposited another 2+ hours of “Marvelous” entertainment. Avengers, Assemble! Some detractors I spoke…

By Michael Wolff on Apr 27th, 2015

WARNING: Though this is a speculative article, it does contain information about the Civil War storyline found in the comics. Reader discretion is advised. When it comes to superhero movies, Marvel has been running a very successful game plan. The first Avengers movie was a grand act of drama, having multiple characters share screen time…

Spider-Verse

By Michael Wolff on Apr 9th, 2015

The term “event” in comic books means a massive plotline that affects everything in the aforementioned comic book universe. The Final Crisis DC event was a game-changer because heroes died. Not the “come back to life next issue” deaths comic books are infamous for. They actually died. People were erased from existence. An entire universe,…

Age of Ultron Poster Reveals All

0

By Carly Fjeld on Mar 18th, 2015

If actions speak louder than words, then movie posters crush rumors and confirm suspicions. That’s exactly what the new poster for the upcoming Avengers: Age of Ultron does. Firstly, fans get a peak of Paul Bettany’s Vision character. There he is, floating just about the Hulk’s head. Also, it seems like there are a few too…

Are There Too Many Comic Book Movies?

0

By J.W.Allen on Mar 5th, 2015

Yes, but let me explain why. Comic book movies were never really “in vogue” throughout the 70s, 80s and 90s. Oh sure, Superman was seen as a classic portrayal of the Man of Steel, and Tim Burton introduced us to a much Darker Knight than most people had seen in Batman. But these movies were…

Spider-Man Will Sling into the MCU

0

By Carly Fjeld on Feb 17th, 2015

It looks as if Spider-Man will be making his way in a new web in the next few years. He’ll be dropping in on the Marvel Cinematic Universe after Sony Entertainment and Marvel have decided to play nice and work together, a result of the minimal success of The Amazing Spider-Man 2. Sony tried to…

Whatever Happened to Good Theme Songs in Movies?

0

By N.Demmy on Sep 8th, 2014

Walking out of the theater after Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, I was struck by something—an assault on my ears, and I don’t mean that in a good way. It wasn’t the juvenile lowbrow humor evident in the quick bonus scene during the credits (it wasn’t funny), it was the song that was playing. The main problem…

Retconning

0

By Michael Wolff on Aug 29th, 2014

Retconning, a term often encountered by even the most casual of fans, is one of the most significant, game-changing ideas in the world of entertainment (comics, television, etc.), and yet most people don’t know it from the kind of clubs Tiger Woods uses on the golf course. This essay will explain what retconning is. Simply…

In a few days, the only wall-crawler we aren’t completely terrified of will finally return in his latest movie, The Amazing Spider-Man 2! The second chapter will be brought to life by the talented filmmaker Marc Webb (500 Days of Summer), the same mind behind the first of the reboots. In this sequel, the “with great power comes…

Marvel Comics Character Rights: A Tale of Two Pietros

0

By B.K. on Apr 27th, 2014

It was the best of franchises, it was the worst of franchises. —The Editor I was in the theater to see Captain America: The Winter Soldier, the ads started, and suddenly there were two trailers featuring Marvel comics characters from two other production companies. Once more, I found myself mourning the fact that Spider-Man (Sony)…
