Take a look at the dark Venom trailer

A brand new trailer for Sony's Venom film debuted this morning and shows us more action and horror than the first two combined. The most interesting part of the trailer is we finally get a look at the other symbiote included in the film aside from Venom which is speculated as Riot. While many fans thought Carnage would be the villain to our anti-hero, there has yet to be any confirmation of that. This image shown in the trailer is reminiscent of this cover from Venom's Carnage Unleashed. Take a look at the trailer below and get ready for some r-rated comic horror when Venom releases 10/5/2018.

How James Gunn and Disney ended up where they are today

7/30/2018

 Posted above is a full statement from the cast of Guardians of the Galaxy 2 in support of fired director James Gunn.This statement follows the leak of his controversial tweets several weeks ago, but to understand how we got here, we need to look back to establish a time line of what just happened. It all began with indie director and popular HBO collaborator, Mark Duplass and Ben Shapiro sharing a conversation which resulted in a controversial tweet by Duplass himself, encouraging those who are interested in 'crossing the aisle' to follow Shapiro, an already controversial right wing commentator. After the initial apology from Duplass, following a swift backlash, director James Gunn stepped in to defend the difference between 'intent' and 'impact' (in so few words) in Duplass' statement. After another backlash, now aimed at the Marvel director, another right wing commentator and conspiracy theorist, Mike Cernovich, dug up the deleted James Gunn tweets as a move to discredit the popular director, resulting in quick action by Disney with the removal of Gunn from the director chair for Guardians of the Galaxy 3 [For reference, you can see some of the tweets in question at here. Warning, the content is disturbing.] After a fan circulated petition began to make the rounds of the internet, actor Dave Bautista stepped up to defend Gunn before the rest of the cast joined in this morning. This also took place during SDCC, normally one of Marvel's biggest events during the year but it might have worked in Disney's favor that they did not host a panel in Hall H this year due to the fact that they are keeping the final Avengers film under wraps. We also know that James Gunn was due to announce a new project with Sony, teasing this image (which resembles an image from Berserk, but could be a witches brand from Bloodborne) on his twitter but has yet to follow it up with any news and was absent from Comic Con.

Disney was most certainly put in a corner when the news broke. Either they had prior knowledge of the tweets and chose to ignore them, in which case they should have seen this coming or had no knowledge and would have to make a decision whether to keep the director behind one of their best received franchises or fire him (which they ultimately did). They were also guaranteed backlash either way due to the alarming content of the tweets in question and the time period of when they were placed online. Either way, it looks like the new Guardian's petition is quickly growing in signatures and it will be interesting to see what Disney decides to do and how the impact of Gunn's firing impact Hollywood moving forward.

Disney outbids Comcast to acquire Fox

6/20/2018

After an intense bidding war it looks like we finally know where the Fox assets are heading and it gives the fans a lot to be excited about. After Comcast tried to outbid Disney's original 52.4 billion offer with their own 65 billion dollar offer, Disney struck back with a 71.3 billion offer that proved too lucrative for Fox to pass up. Disney fighting for this deal makes a lot of sense considering all of the Marvel characters Fox had under its belt including the massively successful Deadpool franchise and X men. This also makes a lot of sense as Marvel has been very quite about where they are heading past Avengers 4 with their expanding universe and this has given them a lot more to play with. On top of that, Disney now owns the cable channels FX, and FXX, as well as everything excluding local Fox channels, Fox sports, and Fox news. This landmark franchise deal adds to the already impressive power under Disney's belt but we will have to wait and see how that will effect their release schedule, which is the under-performing Solo in theaters. All in all, this is great news for comic book fans so hopefully we will see some Xmen characters as well as a possibly well done version of Fantastic Four in the future.

If you're absolutely exhausted and still reeling from the dramatic ending of Avengers: Infinity War then fear not, Marvel is ready to bring you some laughs this summer with their next installment. Ant-man and the Wasp dropped a full length trailer showing off not just the new duo but some of our favorite side characters including fan favorite Luis played by Michael Peña. We also get some amazing shots of villain Ghost and some more stylish action sequences. This is also a relatively light year for Marvel, giving us just two films instead of the normal three so this will be the last one for awhile until Captain Marvel's release next March, 2019. Take a look at the new trailer below and get ready for the film when it launches July 6th, 2018.

Spoiler Free: To go or not to go: Avengers Infinity War

4/26/2018

As to not anger the Gods of cinema, I'm going to keep this post completely spoiler free and instead just highlight a few impressions I got from the film. First and foremost, the Russo brothers had a near impossible task. To not only join (nearly) every major hero in the current Marvel Universe but to walk this movie into a sequel while also preserving the forward trajectory of Marvels expanded Universe. This includes confirmed films like this summers Ant-Man 2 and Captain Marvel. The movie gets to the action and some surprising deaths pretty quickly and does a very good job of not slowing down too much. While there are multiple moments in the film featuring random pairings and first time introductions between multiple heroes, the action sequence are fantastic and the trailers don't even scratch the surface of some of the stuff we see. There is one specific scene between villain Thanos and (removed name because I don't want you to know what its coming) that features an absolutely incredible fight sequence. It is also no secret that when the movie screened earlier this week, twitter was ablaze with reactions praising the films ending and I have to say, it is far superior than what most comic book films accomplish as well as what a majority of Marvel films have pulled. Speaking of the mad titan himself, Brolin makes for an incredible and memorable villain, a far step above a majority of comic book antagonist. There are more than a few shocking moments and the film ends leaving you with a lot of questions, more importantly who is going to come back when Marvel is ready to move on to their next phase. All in all, Marvel has been on a steady uphill climb with their last few films, Guardians of the Galaxy 2,Thor: Ragnarok, and the box office shattering Black Panther and they are definitely in position for another hit. Make sure to catch Avengers: Infinity War in theaters now.

Avengers finally has some breathing room

It was no secret that the month of May was jam packed full of major studio releases, with Avenger: Infinity War, Deadpoool 2, and Solo all releasing within a matter of weeks of one another but it looks like Disney has made the right move with the latest Marvel film. It was announced today that the new release date for Infinity Wars has been moved up to April 27th, giving it one more full week for a box office run. This makes sense as Sueprhero films are also famously known to drop heavily in the following weeks after opening weekend (with exception of the historic box office run Black Panther is enjoying right now). All in all, the move if great, not just for the studio but for fans as well who are dying to see what might be the most dramatic and action packed Marvel film yet. So now we are just a little over 7 weeks away until what will be another of 2018's biggest releases. Are you excited for this move?
