Netflix has released a poster for The Defenders, and it’s a little astonishing at how bad this poster is. The Defenders is the Netflix-equivalent of The Avengers. It’s Marvel’s big crossover that’s been in the works for years that will bring Daredevil (Charlie Cox), Jessica Jones (Krysten Ritter), Luke Cage (Mike Colter), and idiot manchild Iron Fist (Finn Jones) together.

Netflix released their first tease of The Defenders. The brief “clip” shows security camera footage of Daredevil (Charlie Cox), Jessica Jones (Krysten Ritter), Luke Cage (Mike Colter), and Iron Fist (Finn Jones) riding in an elevator, looking a little worse for wear, and then Jessica punching out the camera.

The release of Ghostbusters this summer was intended to jump-start a franchise that has long been on Sony Pictures’ to-do list, but unfortunately, it didn’t quite hit like the studio was hoping. Director Paul Feig’s reboot was at a disadvantage from the start, as his decision to fill the cast with female comedians set off a seemingly unending screed of misogyny in the darkest corners of the internets, … Continue reading There Are “Many Other” ‘Ghostbusters’ Movies in Development, Says Ivan Reitman!!
Netflix’s The Defenders looks like it will be reuniting just about anyone and everyone we’ve seen (and will soon see) over the four-series run of Marvel shows. Most of these casting announcements made sense; the title team will be composed of Daredevil, Jessica Jones, Luke Cage and Iron Fist, after all. And even the supporting cast didn’t come as that much of a surprise considering that they help … Continue reading ‘The Defenders’ Will Feature the Return of Elodie Yung as Elektra!!!

The trailers released thus far have … Continue reading ‘A Monster Calls’ Release Date Pushed into the Heart of Oscar Season!!
Despite early enthusiasm from Sony executives about the franchise and shared-universe potential springing from Paul Feig’s Ghostbusters reboot, the film’s estimated $75 million box office loss seems to have put the nail in the coffin of a live-action sequel. The 2016 release currently has a domestic box office take just north of $117 million with a disappointing $62.8 million from the international market; it will expand into Spain and Japan … Continue reading ‘Ghostbusters’ Sequel Unlikely After Expected $75 Million Loss at the Box Office!!!
Synopsis – Following a ghost invasion of Manhattan, paranormal enthusiasts Erin Gilbert and Abby Yates, nuclear engineer Jillian Holtzmann, and subway worker Patty Tolan band together to stop the otherworldly threat. My Take – I have always dismissed the idea of a remake or a reboot of a successful franchise, seriously why fix something which is not broken? Sony‘s main mistake was a rather unfunny first … Continue reading Ghostbusters (2016) Review!!
“I ain’t afraid of no ghosts” is the line of the original Ghostbusters theme song that has stood the test of time, and the song, on the whole, is certainly more enjoyable than that Fall Out Boy/Missy Elliott nonsense Paul Feig‘s reboot of the franchise has been saddled with. According to several sources, however, China won’t be amongst the countries who get to hear the new song in the … Continue reading ‘Ghostbusters’ Reportedly Banned in China!!

Well, here we are. This morning brought with it the full audio for the new Ghostbusters theme song, “I’m Not Afraid,” performed by Fall Out Boy and the galvanic Missy Elliott, and it’s not good. Subjectivity goes a long way in these kind of things, but I have a hard time imagining people enjoying this outside of the realm of gimmicks. The most famous songs … Continue reading ‘Ghostbusters’: Listen to Fall Out Boy & Missy Elliott’s Not-So-Great Theme Song “I’m Not Afraid”!!
Synopsis – The friendly-but-forgetful blue tang fish reunites with her loved ones, and everyone learns a few things about the real meaning of family along the way. My Take – I’m not sure how many people really wanted a sequel to Finding Nemo, I know I didn’t. The talking clown fish film was a huge success for Pixar when it was released in 2003. As well as winning the … Continue reading Finding Dory (2016) Review!!!

Synopsis – In the near future, crime is patrolled by an oppressive mechanized police force. When one police droid, Chappie, is stolen and given new programming, he becomes the first robot with the ability to think and feel for himself.

Synopsis –The defiant leader Moses rises up against the Egyptian Pharaoh Ramses, setting 600,000 slaves on a monumental journey of escape from Egypt and its terrifying cycle of deadly plagues.
