Senior Writer at GeekVibesNation - I am a 50 something child of the 70’s who admits to being a Star Trek/Star Wars/Comic Book junkie who once dove head first over a cliff (Ok, it was a small hill) to try to rescue his Fantastic Four comic from a watery grave.

The Shape, Jamie Lee Curtis, and the iconic music. When you hear the initial theme, you know what is coming. With the new Halloween approaching theaters next month, Carpenter, who once again is handling the movie’s score along with Cody Carpenter and Daniel Davies, has released the first cut from the movies soundtrack. Carpenter co-wrote the original film with Debra Hill, in addition to directing and composing the film’s score. 40 years later, we come full circle and the music still invokes…

It When Nick Castle reunited with John Carpenter for the latest Halloween, he probably thought that might be the last time. As pretty much all Halloween fans know, Castle played the main protagonist known as “the shape” or more commonly referred to as Michael Myers in 1978’s Halloween, which was co-written and directed by Carpenter. Recently, Castle has teased that the two of them might be getting back together for another type of performance. For the past few years, Carpenter has focused on creating music and touring more than his cinematic efforts. When he performs, one song that fans familiar…

Disney itself has not commented on these reports. According to Variety’s sources: “Each series is expected to include six to eight episodes. Marvel Studios will produce the shows and Kevin Feige, the guru of all things [Marvel Cinematic Universe], is expected to take a hands-on role in their development.” If true,…

With the final season appearing sometime next year, Game of Thrones fans are gradually learning to accept the fact that their favorite show is ending. However, it appears that the franchise’s creator isn’t among those who HAVE accepted it. When speaking with Variety on the Emmys Red Carpet, George R. R. Martin was asked why it was decided that Game of Thrones would come to an end next year. According to him, he thought that the series could have had a much longer life, although the showrunners apparently didn’t necessarily  agree. https://twitter.com/variety/status/1041811172712796160?s=21 As Martin went on to explain, (and he would know)…

Most fans have knew this was coming and now ABC has confirmed it: the first full trailer for Captain Marvel will debut tomorrow morning on Good Morning America. This would certainly make sense as Captain Marvel herself, Brie Larson will be a guest on the morning show, which airs beginning at 7 a.m. ET/PT on ABC. https://twitter.com/gma/status/1041817537196027904?s=21 This film was teased at the end of Avengers: Infinity War as Nick Fury dropped his device with the Captain Marvel logo right before Thanos made an ash of him. Set in the 90’s, Captain Marvel will be the first female Marvel superhero to headline her own…

When Sony’s new version of God of War was released, everyone was duly impressed and critics viewed it very favorably. However, there’s at least one person who hasn’t been in any particular rush to see what all the fuss was about. That person was the director of the original God of War that debuted on the PlayStation 2, David Jaffe. During the “hayday” of PlayStation 2, Jaffe worked on a number of popular Sony franchises, including Twisted Metal. He also worked on the original God of War which started the franchise off with great graphics and gameplay, and became so popular that…

[vc_row][vc_column][vc_single_image image=”6109″ img_size=”446×300″ alignment=”center”][vc_column_text]I admit for full disclosure that I never really watched Charlie’s Angel’s back when it was originally on, although I was an admirer of Farrah Fawcett Majors and Jacklyn Smith. It was apparently quite popular as it spawned two different movies based on it. The one constant for the TV series and the movies was the character of Bosley. Many different actors have taken on the mantle of the Bosley role in the past. David Doyle played the role in the original Charlie’s Angels. When it hit the big screen, Bill Murray assumed the role and he was…

There was a lot of speculation and discussion when Alec Baldwin was initially hired to portray Thomas Wayne in the new The Joker movie. It was debated about how Baldwin would approach the role, and then the debate continued upon his subsequent dropping from the project. The fact remained however, the part still needed to be filled. It appears that has been accomplished as Brett Cullen has been cast as Thomas Wayne in the upcoming The Joker movie from director Todd Phillips. Our friends at ComicBook.com have confirmed the casting with Warner Bros. as Cullen will be stepping into the role…

[vc_row][vc_column][vc_single_image image=”6066″ img_size=”1000×500″ alignment=”center”][vc_column_text]When we left Gotham in Season Four, almost the entire collection of Gotham’s characters were left stranded in the unstable, violent area known as No Man’s Land. Thus the last season ended with all of them in extreme danger. In previous seasons, most of Gotham’s characters have found their way around such pitfalls and avoided a possible violent fate. However, that remains to be seen if this will be true for Season 5. At least that is what one of the show’s recurring actors, Andrew Sellon who plays Mr. Penn, is inferring. According to Sellon, this final season,…

For a man without any powers and at first glance might look like an accountant, Phillip J. Coulson certainly gets around and appears to have his foot in a lot of doors. Think back to the beginning of the MCU and Iron Man. When Coulson talked to Tony Stark (after he was able to spit out the whole Strategic Homeland Intervention, Enforcement and Logistics Division title), he mentioned to him that his present situation was “not his first rodeo” when it came to involvement with powered individuals. So if THAT wasn’t his first rodeo, what WAS his first rodeo? Perhaps…
