There isn’t a man alive who didn’t love Conan, and Arnold playing Conan, back in the ’80s.  We all wanted to be both… but just lacked the intestinal fortitude and due diligence needed to manifest such a beast of a body.  Especially when there were hundreds of hours of Gilligan’s Island and Brady Bunch, to [...]

Marvel, Sony and Columbia have decided to kill Spider-Man 4.  The film had originally been scheduled for May of 2011.  Now… pfffft. At first the studio stated that production was “Delayed”. But ultimately, Spider-Man director Sam Raimi has actually been let go. Also gone are,  Tobey Maguire/Peter Parker and girlfriend Kirsten Dunst/Mary Jane.
What seems to [...]

We loved Spider-Man.  We loved Iron Man!  And we try not to think too much about the Fantastic Four; however the Silver Surfer was cool.  But will we love Ant-Man, Iron Fist and every other obscure hero in the Marvel universe?
Disney is finishing the digestion of Marvel this week, with its whopping $4.2 billion dollar [...]

Brandon Ruth is dead as Superman. The previously unknown actor who came out of nowhere to play the character in Superman Returns explained in an interview with Spanish-language entertainment site Omelete why he’s unlikely to be back as Superman in the next flick.

We finally have the Green Lantern Blackest night t-shirts, along with more other Green Lantern shirts. If you haven’t been keeping up with the Green Lantern series, you’ll want to pick up the comics or do what I do and save a buck or two and wait for the graphic novel to come out. [...]

If you’re old enough, like some folks around here, you probably yell at the local kids, “HEY You kids, STOP THAT!” from your porch. But you might also remember Mickey Rourke from old movies like Angel Heart and Nine 1/2 Weeks and The Pope of Greenwich Village back in the 80s.
But most of [...]

I saw Watchmen with 5 other comic geeks and we all LOVED IT.
Watchmen was a fantastic adaptation from the comic book/graphic novel. Snyder painfully, and lovingly, adhered to the theme that Moore and Gibbons created 20 years ago.
It succeeded in its adaptation and interpretation just as Peter Jackson’s translation of Lord Of The Rings succeeded; [...]

God, I CANNOT WAIT for GI Joe to hit the screens. Even though I never got into the comics and cartoons as a kid, I just missed the boat, I can’t help but dig Snake-Eyes. Way too excited about Ray Park playing him. You gotta love a guy in black, skin tight, muscle suit with [...]
