Hugh Jackman’s performance as Wolverine in FOX’s X-Men is a fan favorite and regarded as iconic at this point. He cemented his legacy as the Marvel character in Logan, in what many deem as the perfect send-off. In a recent interview with Cinema Blend, Jackman revealed how he felt the exact moment he knew he was done: “The moment I had the thought, I was super charged, super excited, absolutely sure I wouldn’t play it again and very nervous, because it’s 17 years.” In a separate interview with Variety, Jackman said: “I went home and I said to Deb on…

Sure, Nicolas Cage does a lot of terrible movies these days, but every once in a while, he turns in a golden performance. Bad Lieutenant: Port of Call New Orleans and Joe are recent examples of this, while many other movies in his very long filmography are also there if you know where to look. Mom and Dad looks to have that same potential. Yes, that’s right. Nicolas Cage was doing the Hokey Pokey with a sledgehammer. What other proof do you need that this will be the single greatest cinematic experience of all time? Well, the film also currently…

*Update* Disney has confirmed this is NOT official promotional art for Solo: A Star Wars Story. This article is presented as it was first written. After what has been an extremely long wait, the first look at the upcoming Star Wars spin-off film, Solo: A Star Wars Story is here in the form of a promotional image that has hit the internet. It features Alden Ehrenreich, Donald Glover, Emilia Clarke, and of course, Chewbacca. The images come courtesy of LicensingRussia: While there hasn’t been a trailer released for the film yet, there was an alleged description that hit the internet earlier this week,…

There are quite a few theories out there regarding Avengers: Infinity War, as is the case with pretty much every Marvel Cinematic Universe movie, or comic book movie for that matter. The latest one, however, is definitely an interesting one, as it speculates who could be the secret weapon The Avengers need to take down Thanos! The theory comes courtesy of a user on Reddit, who speculates that it could be Mantis, as the character has spent years practicing to put a celestial to sleep. This is definitely intriguing, and it’ll be interesting to see what actually happens in the…

Star Wars: The Last Jedi is definitely a film that’s gotten all kinds of discussion, both positive and negative. While critics praised the film, the audience seemed divided, as evident by the difference in critic and audience score on Rotten Tomatoes. Some fans who didn’t like the movie noticed that, and have launched a petition to shut down the website – for the positive reviews. The petition reads: Rotten Tomatoes has a very flawed aggregate rating system. Take for example the Critic’s Ratings for Star Wars: The Last Jedi (93%), Ghostubusters [sic] (73%) and Sharknando [sic] (82%). All of these movies got high ratings but from…

There are obvious Star Wars: The Last Jedi spoilers in this article! Star Wars: The Last Jedi is easily the most talked about and overly dissected movie of 2017. It seems as though Star Wars fans either absolutely loved or hated the movie – and aren’t shy about it. If you’ve seen the movie, you know that Holdo (played by Laura Dern) crashes her ship at light-speed into a First Order destroyer to release the escape on the ship. At that moment, all sound is cut in the movie – something director Rian Johnson intentionally did. Some fans, however, apparently…

Black Panther is perhaps a film that gets lost in the buzz because of all of the attention that Avengers: Infinity War is receiving, but that’s not to say it’s not a highly anticipated film. It’s reportedly tracking to make a ton of money at the box office, and that’s no surprise given the impressive track record of the Marvel Cinematic Universe thus far. In the latest edition of Empire Magazine, we’re given an up-close look at Black Panther’s new suit for the film, and it looks pretty cool! We were also treated to a new TV spot for the…

Steppenwolf, the villain in this year’s Justice League, was seen as somewhat of a disappointment by many. Personally, I didn’t find the CGI nearly as bad as the rest of the internet apparently did, but I digress. It turns out, however, the character almost had a much more terrifying design. Conceptual artist Jerad S. Marantz posted the following design to his Instagram page: https://www.instagram.com/p/BdGTzvcn75s/ Some complained about Steppenwolf’s motivations in the film not really being explained, but that’s probably due to the fact that Warner Bros. cut out giant parts of the film – including scenes with Darkseid and a way…

There hasn’t been really any kind of promotional material for Disney’s upcoming Han Solo movie, Solo: A Star Wars Story, due to problems behind the scenes. The original directors were fired, and Ron Howard was brought in to finish the movie. Disney is also apparently worried about the film, and the fact that we haven’t seen anything when the movie is out in May is definitely cause for pause – especially for a Star Wars movie. There is now, however, an alleged description of the trailer we’re supposedly getting very soon, which reads: Not much, but here’s a rundown of…

We already knew that there was a Tim Curry Pennywise the Clown Easter egg in this year’s IT Movie, as it was revealed in one of the trailers, but I felt it would be interesting to point out again, now that the movie is out on digital, and will soon be released on Blu-Ray, as many fans might not be aware that it’s even in the film. It occurs in the “Beep, Beep, Richie!” scene. It’s interesting that it made its way into the film, considering director Andy Muschetti had some pretty negative things to say about it: “Most of…
