I consider him to be the most valued resource on all things comic book, and every time I like something in the comic I always mention it he’s like ‘oh yeah I wrote that’. Now I just think he’s bullshitting me and he says he wrote everything. You know he and I are working together on something and I really am excited about it,…

Many critics have been giving Batman v. Superman: Dawn of Justice mixed reviews since its initial release, but Henry Cavill thinks that what the fans think is more important. He explained to Yahoo Movies that, “The interesting thing is that we get the critics who have their personal opinions, and the thing about personal opinions is that they always come from a place.

You work harder on the bad films, or the films that turn…

The new Ghostbusters film has divided the fans quite a bit, you either love it or hate it, and the trailer has seemed to get the same type of attention. Most recently, Kevin Smith announced his thoughts on the trailer for Hollywood Babble-On with Ralph Garman. And he’s made it particularly clear that he has no issues with the female cast and that he’s still open to the film: “It could’ve been all men with the same jokes, and it still would have duded. The trailer’s not strong, and that doesn’t mean the movie’s gonna blow, like again the f****** pedigree…

Superman: Dawn of Justice. “If you loved Man of Steel, you’ll love BvS,” he said, while saying that if you didn’t like the ending of Man of Steel, “BvS may redeem that.” And if you weren’t fond of Man of Steel’s dark tone? “Probably not for you.” Finally, he added that Wonder Woman will be “fearsome” and that Batman and Superman will have “a moment” that will “make even the most cynical tear-up a little.” It sounds like Batman v. Superman: Dawn of Justice will be an improvement over Man…
