There has been a shift in the paradigm over the last couple of years, moreso than ever, to bring equality to all forms of media. Marvel Comics has tried to be at the forefront at that, making their comics more gender neutral rather than male-centric. Their latest move, which is garnering headlines for all the wrong reasons, seemed subtle and, quite frankly, the right move. Thor has crafter himself a new Mjolnir, and the inscription has some heads turning over just one word. Bounding Into Comics first reported on Thor crafting a new Mjolnir at the end of the War…

Matt Reeves’ The Batman is really starting to shape up after quite a delay from it’s conception after Ben Affleck left the project that was announced prior to the release of the much maligned Justice League. While plot details are being kept under wraps, we do know that Robert Pattinson is set to play The World’s Greatest Detective, and is supposedly set to face quite a rogues gallery of villains. Now, it would seem that the film is moving forward, and it has taken the next step in it’s production. According to IMDbPro, the film has moved from the ‘script’…

Henry Cavill may have moved on from playing Superman, but he’s not leaving the fantasy realm behind. Going from superheroes to monsters and magic, Cavill is set to play Geralt in Netflix’s The Witcher series. Based around the highly successful video game series and corresponding books, Witcher hopes to break the video game adaptation curse (although, Detective Pokemon did a pretty good job of that). Now, we have some official looks at the main characters in the series. Fans were a little worried when the first test photos for Cavill’s look came out and his hair was, let us say,…

If you are a fan of horror films, even of the casual persuasion, it’s really hard to denounce the legacy of the Rob Zombie films, House of 1,000 Corpses and The Devil’s Rejects. A fresh take on the psycho thriller genre, these films terrify and enthrall audiences simultaneously, and pretty much has the crowd rooting for the murderous Firefly family right from the get go. Now, after a long 15 year wait, the third film in the series, 3 From Hell, is set to hit theaters later this year. And, we’ve got some official art and select early release dates…

There are few comic books that gain huge cult followings that are outside the big publishers, Marvel, DC, and Image. But, in the 90’s, there was a smaller publisher named Vertigo that produced a grand work from fan favorite author, Neil Gaiman. Sandman ran for 72 issues, and is considered one of the best works outside of the big 3 (DC went on to purchased Vertigo, before shutting down that publisher this year). Now, it looks like we are finally going to get a live action adaptation, in the form of a streaming series. According to The Hollywood Reporter, Netflix…

Avengers: Endgame has started it’s re-release this past weekend to give fans a little extra as well as try to take the number one all time box office spot. They added a much missed Stan ‘The Man’ Lee tribute, a sneak peek of Spider-Man: Far From Home, and a deleted scene for a character that many fans felt was underutilized in the 3 hour epic. That character is the Hulk. Having finally come to terms with his ‘condition’, he has moved to embrace the Green Goliath side, rather than control/cure it. So, the Marvel Cinematic Universe got their version of…

Whether you considered the Avengers: Endgame re-release a way to give such die hard fans a little something extra or it was just a quick cash grab to try and usurp Avatar from the number one all time spot, it seems to have been a proper course of measure, either way. Adding a deleted scene, a tribute to Stan “The Man” Lee, and a sneak peek at next week’s Spider-Man: Far From Home, seemed like a nice add on for fans. But, what if you can’t catch the re-release? Maybe money is a little tight as you prep for the…

As the future of the Marvel Cinematic Universe looms closer, fans are very excited for the stories to come. Arguably the one that is at the top of everyone’s list is Guardians of the Galaxy 3. The film has had a whirlwind of a go, full of controversy after writer/director James Gunn was fired by Disney over some decade old tweets. The film was put on indefinite hold, Marvel being unsure of how to move forward. But, then Disney came to their senses and rehired Gunn, and the project is back on track. However, that track is a long one,…
