The ninth season finale of Smallville aired on Friday, concluding a very odd season of the long-running television show. Though this season introduced us to the first live-action appearances of many DC characters, it also focused mainly on the relationship between Clark Kent and a newly resurrected group of Kandorians, led by Zod. We met […]
Imagi Animation has done some truly stellar work, between their TMNT and Astro Boy (review here) movies. When news came a couple of years ago that they’d be doing a Gatchaman movie, I have to admit to scratching my head. My only familiarity with the property was the 2002 Top Cow Battle of the Planets […]
While the web tells us we’re anxiously awaiting the trailer for the new Jonah Hex movie starring Josh Brolin and Megan Fox (are we? I’m not.), it appears that the film, which is due out in a mere two months, finally has a poster. And…it screams three things to me – crap, Van Helsing, and […]
I’ve spoken before about Syfy’s upcoming reinvention of The Phantom, and, even though I didn’t dig the concept designs for the costume, I have to admit that, after seeing the trailer, the mini-series, premiering June 20th on SyFy Channel, looked pretty decent. In fact, I found it very Batman Beyond-ish. Having been given the chance […]
And no, I’m not referring to Funnybook host Jonathan getting his hands on a Fleshlight. The less said about that the better. Just remember Jonny – you weren’t masterbating, you were high fiving your penis…repeatedly. Anyway…what I’m really writing to talk about, and anybody who reads this site should know by the title of the […]
Because this worked so well with the original Punisher, Captain America, and Fantastic Four movies? And more recently with Man-Thing and Punisher: War Zone? From CHUD: Marvel Studios is currently taking meetings with writers and directors to work on small scale movies based on some of their third tier characters. The movies would cost in […]
Ohmigodohmigodohmigod…. YOUNG JUSTICE is an all-new series produced by Warner Bros. Animation and based upon the characters from DC Comics. In YOUNG JUSTICE, being a teenager means proving yourself over and over – to peers, parents, teachers, mentors and, ultimately, to yourself. But what if you’re not just a normal teenager? What if you’re a […]
Some kick ass movie news today – I compiled the best of the best below! Batman: Under the Red Hood trailer! Man, I’m really excited about this. I really enjoyed the original tale in Batman, written by Judd Winnick with art by the ever-reliable Doug Mahnke, which featured the return of Jason Todd. Even though […]
Usually when a movie comes out that is based on a comic or book I enjoy I am able to keep a mental disconnect. It isn’t always easy, but I have been known to enjoy movies that make a mockery of the original source material. This one however left me wondering at first if my […]
Damn, this news pisses me off. I spoke at length about how much I was LOVING Spectacular Spider-Man, the animated series run by Greg Weisman, who was also showrunner for Disney’s Gargoyles. The quality was at least on par with The New Batman Adventures, had an ongoing mythology and had progression in its characters storylines. […]
