One of the things I love about diehard comic book fans is that they get invested in all facets of their favorite characters. For example, when Captain America made his big screen appearances in 'Captain America: The First Avenger' and 'The Avengers,' there was a great deal of discussion regarding…

Collectively, Marvel's Phase 1 and Phase 2 films have sort of functioned like an accordion. Phase 1 slowly pushed all the tentpole heroes toward a teamup in 'The Avengers,' and Phase 2 spread them back out into…

Less than a month. We are less than a month away from the release of Shane Black's 'Iron Man 3,' and thereby the commencement of Marvel's Phase 2.

The ultimate dream for any working actor has to be landing a role in a major geek property movie. Or maybe more accurately, the major prize is being able to stake a claim in multiple geek property movies. Sir Ian…

As you're probably aware by now, 'Iron Man 3,' which hits theaters May 3rd, will be the opening act of Marvel's Phase 2. This will of course be followed by new solo films from Thor and Captain America as well as James Gunn's…

Honestly the only thing more exciting to me than the prospect of seeing 'Iron Man 3' is seeing 'Iron Man 3' in IMAX. Everything we've seen from Shane Black's upcoming superhero sequel suggests that it will look absolutely stunning in the enormous-screen format. To wit, the studio has released this poster…

First of all, let's look over the plot summary of the Dark Knight trilogy as the definitive Batman story on film. As a young boy, Bruce Wayne's parents are killed in front of him and thus decides to travel the world for many years to find his life purpose with the aid of the League of Shadows…

If you're a fan of Joss Whedon, then you know that it is often unwise to get attached to characters in the various properties he helms. He apparently feels no compunction about killing off anyone if it serves the…

Marvel's Phase 2 is positively bursting with potential. This anticipation-engendering potential does not solely pertain to the next round of standalone adventures of the individual members of The Avengers, but in the bold new cinematic adaptations as well. For example, …

For a long time, we've been talking about Marvel's 'Guardians of the Galaxy.' At first its very existence seemed a far-fetched rumor; was the studio really sinking money into adapting so obscure a…

Rumor, rumor, who's heard a rumor? When it comes to the future of Marvel, and what we can expect from the superhero dream factory's films going forward, the sheer excitement they've instilled in us over the last few years has lead to a dramatic upswing in those rumors. A really juicy one circulating at the…

Greetings fellow Spillios me again. About a month ago I discussed video game films and how they have failed in the past but how they could be done better. Now towards the end of the post I said I would love see Sonic the hedgehog adapted. Now a lot of you wonder well it's about an ultra super fast blue hedgehog who goes around saving animals and beating the shit out of a scientist who looks like Theodore Roosevolt how the hell would that be adapted? Well overtime the series has formulated a…

Marvel Ultimate Alliance this is probably the best Marvel mash up of Superheroes that has ever been done in video games, which isn’t saying a whole hell of a lot. This game has a pretty decent story it is basically a large team of villains that are led by Dr. Doom, and have Loki, Ultron and a ton of other randomly place villains are trying to destroy shield and rule Earth and Asgard. So Shield in retaliation to this gather every superhero except Hulk and Hawkeye, but they…
