Back then, Robert Downey Jr. had the time to take on the Sherlock Holmes role in two films, with Jude Law playing his trusty ally Watson. Recently, Downey’s commitments to the MCU have taken a priority over his Sherlock films. However, now with his tenure as Tony Stark coming to an end, a third Sherlock film will be hitting theaters in 2020. Law recently detailed that the possible plot of the third film might likely focus on…

[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]I have more than once…ok a lot of times, expressed my fan boy admiration of John Bucema’s art and especially his work on “The Might Thor.” Another of his most impressive titles was his work on Conan the Barbarian. Conan was a Marvel mainstay until the year 2000 when they lost his rights. Fast forward to the present and Marvel has once again purchased the rights to Conan the Barbarian. With that in mind, Marvel has finally announced that a new series featuring the iconic character is on the way and is bringing in an exciting creative team to take take…
Let’s go back in Mr. Peabody’s “Wabach Machine” or “Way Back Machine” depending on how you remember it, to February 11th, 1998 and see a Star Trek Deep Space Nine episode called “Far Beyond the Stars.” In this story, series lead Benjamin Sisko finds himself experiencing the life of Benny Russell, a black science fiction writer in 1950s America. Russell “imagines” Deep Space Nine as a story he’s trying to sell, but struggles with the racism of the era. In the end, this is revealed as a vision sent to Sisko from the prophets in the wormhole near Deep Space Nine.…

[vc_row][vc_column][vc_single_image image=”3745″ img_size=”1200×900″ alignment=”center”][vc_column_text]With the success of her 2017 screenplay for Hidden Figures, Allison Schroeder is getting an opportunity to come into the cold for Disney’s Frozen 2. Schroeder was brought in to assist Jennifer Lee with scripting duties after Lee was promoted to the head of Walt Disney Animation. Lee will remain the primary writer, but Schroeder, who worked with Disney on their recent release Christopher Robin, will lend a hand with the scripting duties on the sequel in order to give Lee more time to focus on her new responsibilities at the animation studio. Lee was named in June as…
[vc_row][vc_column][vc_single_image image=”3741″ img_size=”600×600″][vc_column_text] As matter of full disclosure, I am a big Harry Potter fan. I have read all the books and seen all the Harry Potter films but I have not as yet seen Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them. That means I have some catching up to do. Especially since Warner Bros. has released the official Fantastic Beasts: The Crimes of Grindelwald character descriptions that offer new insight into the story of the next Harry Potter prequel. Audiences who love the the Harry Potter universe can return to J.K. Rowling’s Wizarding World when Fantastic Beasts: The Crimes of Grindelwald hits…

Now Fox has recently confirmed that Black will be getting an R-Rating for his version of The Predator. While you may be thinking that it should have been a forgone conclusion that Black’s The Predator would be released with an R-Rating, in the current movie climate, that’s no longer a given. Many movies enter pre-production or make it all the way through filming under the assumption that they’ll be R-Rated, only to have it changed to PG -13.…
I love fans. They are willing to debate any subject no matter what it is or how important it might actually be. Let us take up the subject of Stan Lee, who may be one of the most beloved “characters” in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, thanks to his hilarious cameos in each film. (The fact that he had a hand in creating many of Marvel’s most popular characters along with Jack Kirby might also have something to do with it.) But it is not the power of his humor that is being questioned. It is the power of the Super…
