Here is the final trailer for X-Men: Apocalypse that will be released on May 27th theaters. The only problem I have with the trailers so far is that it looks like Mystique is running the movie, and it’s driven by her. This might be the only thing I don’t like of the direction of the film. But I could be wrong. We shall see. Oh by the way, the best kept secret has just been released… Continue reading
Marvel’s Inhumans No Longer Has A Release Date
It might be awhile before we see the Inhumans join the Marvel cinematic universe.
The film was previously slated for July 12th, 2019, but according to the Wall Street Journal’s Ben Fritz, the film has been undated, and now does not have a release date. This is not the first time the film has been moved, as the film was originally slated for November 2nd, 2018. After one bumping, the announcement of Indiana Jones 5’s release date occurring a mere week after Inhumans caused many to fear it would get bumped yet again. Marvel Studios President Kevin Feige alluded to as much during a Captain America: Civil War press junket, and it turned out to be true.
This could be just some restructuring, or it could be due to more Spider-Man films making their way into the line-up. Either way, this project was probably the least anticipated of Marvel’s upcoming crop of films. While the Inhumans have made their presence felt on Marvel’s Agents of SHIELD, they haven’t made the same impact in the films.
Sigourney Weaver Says Neill Blomkamp’s ALIEN Sequel Will Be “Worth The Wait”
When Ridley Scott decided to make the Prometheus sequel Alien: Covenant his next movie, that put Neill Blomkamp’s Alien 5 in a holding pattern. Blomkamp’s movie is set after the events of James Cameron’s Aliens and reportedly ignores the other sequels in the franchise, and Scott wanted to take a crack at making another bridge movie between Prometheus and the first Alien before someone else came in and told another story that takes place further down the timeline.
Sigourney Weaver, who will be working with Blomkamp on Alien 5, has given a little update about the movie (via Aggressive Comix) and she says it’ll be “worth the wait.” Continue reading
The clear, tight-knit, non-paradox inducing Terminator franchise timeline could be in trouble
Despite not going over too well with critics and most everyone else, Terminator: Genisys still took in close to $440 million worldwide, (which currently places it at #197 all-time at the time of this posting. By way of comparison, 2003’s Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines is right below it at #198 with $433.4M. The dollars are not adjusted for inflation, it was released 12 years earlier, and it did not have the benefit of 3D or IMAX for extra revenue.) Paramount/Skydance seemed dead set on continuing the franchise after “readjusting” their approach to the material. Continue reading
New Info on BILL & TED 3, Which Is Reportedly Set in the UK
After years of talk and work to develop a script for Bill & Ted 3, it looks like it’s actually getting close to production. Keanu Reeves and Alex Winter have been very vocal about how excited they are for this movie – especially Alex Winter. Let’s face it – one of these gentlemen starred in three Matrix and two John Wick movies, and the other… just waited my table at Applebee’s. In a recent interview with Forbes, Winter says it’s only a matter of time. Continue reading
BLADE RUNNER 2 Upgrades to 2017 Release Date
I thought it was very strange that Alcon Entertainment set Blade Runner 2 to open in January of 2018, since January is typically a dumping ground for awful movies. But now that concern has slipped away like tears in rain, because Variety reports that the film has now upgraded to the earlier release date of October 6, 2017 instead of January 12, 2018. Continue reading

Hasbro Gathers Writers Room For Its Own Cinematic Universe
The lasting legacy of Marvel Studios may be that practically every other studio has jumped on the idea of an interconnected cinematic universe, and now Hasbro is getting in on that action by creating its own writers room to plan out film adaptations of toys like G.I. Joe, Micronauts, Visionaries, ROM, and M.A.S.K. Continue reading
Robert Downey Jr. To Appear in SPIDER-MAN: HOMECOMING
Variety is reporting that Robert Downey Jr. will reprise the role of Tony Stark in Sony and Marvel’s upcoming co-production of Spider-Man: Homecoming. The size of his role in this film has not been revealed yet, so Tony’s appearance could be anything from a cameo to a larger supporting role. At this point we’re unsure whether he’ll show up as just Tony Stark or if he’ll actually don the Iron Man armor and suit up to help Spidey battle a bad guy (or two). Continue reading
