As the Sony pictures’ Venom hype comes to a close there is one last thing that needs to be addressed and that is who was the better Venom, the 2007 version played by Topher Grace in Spider-Man 3 or the 2018 version played by Tom Hardy in Venom?

Despite the solid plot, many have criticized this manga and it’s anime counterpart as generic, boring or an endless cliché. It was also named one of the worst manga in 2016. In spite of the harsh criticism, the manga became a best seller with over 2 million in 2018 alone and is placed in the top 10 best selling manga this year. Why is that? Well, let’s dive in the anime and see why Black Clover should be on your radar for 2018…
I’ve been hooked on the series that follows young Izuku Midoriya and his super-powered classmates on their journey to become the next generation of heroes. So when I heard that the anime was getting a feature film, and it would be playing in theaters near me, I absolutely jumped at the chance. After seeing it, I think My Hero Academia: Two Heroes may just be one of the best feature films based around an already existing anime. I’m here to tell you why…
All right everyone, buckle up. This article has been a long time coming, and has one of the scariest things I’ve ever written in it: AN UNPOPULAR QUESTION: Should Teen Titans GO!, the revival/reboot of Teen Titans, a bad series? There are several main complaints people have about Teen Titans GO!, and I’m going to address them here, one by one…
Josh Brolin is quite possibly the most awesome villain/superhero actor to play a character or series of characters in the Marvel cinematic enterprise. The funny thing about him is that his first superhero movie was with the DC Universe so in a way, we wouldn’t have received these great Marvel blockbusters if not for Warner Bros….
I don’t regret seeing this movie at all. It’s a very fun and interesting look into Han Solo’s past, and while it’s a story that didn’t need to be told, I’m glad that it exists. It’s a solid foundation for Han’s early adventures, and leaves the door open for more…
So there I was, having just seen Deadpool 2, standing outside discussing what we thought of it, but with one exception. My father was in the group. He wasn't chaperoning, I'm a grown ass man, and I hadn't dragged him along, he just really wanted to come. He's not a comic guy and he doesn't really care about Marvel or DC movies all that much, he doesn’t even really understand most of it. He told me his favorite part of the movie was the advertising. I had to figure out exactly what had happened here.
Black Panther and Thor: Ragnarok have knocked it out the park with story, character development, action, and comedy. Thor: Ragnarok brought new life to Thor on the big screen, and Black Panther has shown Hollywood an all-black cast can break records at the box office. Infinity War has done something unique that only Marvel has pulled off successfully. It made me see a movie twice in one day!!!
Thanos is unlike any other Marvel Cinematic Universe villain we’ve ever seen. This is the first time in the MCU we’ve actually seen the villain win and with this victory, Thanos didn’t become a minimal part of the Marvel Cinematic Universe, he became the Marvel Cinematic Universe.
Thanos is undeniably the greatest villain in the Marvel Cinematic Universe to date, and I’m about to tell you why. But before I do, I have two things to say. First, if you haven’t seen it yet, go out and see Avengers: Infinity War. If you are a fan of comic book movies you will absolutely not regret it. Infinity War does the impossible and somehow recaptures the awe and wonder of 2012’s Avengers, something I thought could never be replicated or outdone. (Art credit to Aaron Morales)
With Avengers: Infinity War SOOO close to the release date, I feel like it’s time for me to hit you with my nerd knowledge and drop my own personal theory of what we are going to see on April 27th.
I am a HUGE monster movie fan. I have been for as long as I can remember, ever since my parents rented some old Godzilla VHS tapes from the local video store. When Pacific Rim was released, it was a colorful, campy yet intense popcorn flick that kept me on the edge of my seat with its fun characters and over the top action. With Pacific Rim Uprising, it takes a more serious look at the world the films take place in, and ask bigger questions like “Why are the Kaiju attacking to begin with? What can we do to stop them to minimize loss of life? How do we prepare the next generation of Jaeger Pilots?” This film answers all of these questions and more; leaving you wanting to know more about the universe the movie takes place in.
Whether it was the lack of a story, the over use of CGI, the fact that the villain wasn’t a threat to the League what so ever, or the growing sex allegations against Ben Affleck. Justice League failed to live up to the hype Warner Brothers so desperately wanted to it to be....and now its on DVD!!! Should we care?
For many people, Captain America: Civil War was their first look at T’Challa, aka the Black Panther and the ultra futuristic, secret country of Wakanda. In the movie Black Panther, the hype train was real when we were able to see Black Panther, Wakanda and the celebration of both Afro-Futurism and the research and dedication done to make this movie one of the best MCU movies since Iron Man.
Named the #1 movie in the world by Marvel Entertainment, Black Panther is another reminder of just how much Black people can and have achieved. While Black Panther isn’t the first superhero movie with a leading Black superhero (Ex. Blade, Catwoman and Spawn to name a few), it’s still nice to have a Black superhero movie dominate a mostly White genre.
Thor: Ragnarok offers a number of themes to give every movie goer something to talk about whether it’s the incredible fight scenes, emotional family moments, laugh out loud moments between Chris Hemsworth and Mark Ruffalo or a story that will leave you researching actual Norse mythology, Thor: Ragnarok will have you talking about it for days on end.
One of the highlights of the convention was going to see the live action Fullmetal Alchemist (FMA) movie. Director Fumihiko Sori and his team did an amazing job bringing the world of FMA to life. I was nervous at first when I heard there was a live action adaptation, but after the screening, my fears were unfounded and I enjoyed every minute.
I have heard various friends gush about how amazing the manga and anime were, but explanations fell on deaf ears. How could I understand anything about family legacies and Stands, and everyone’s hatred for DIO? Two weeks and thirty cups of coffee later, I can say the hype is real....
Guardians of the Galaxy 2 packs a whole lot of action, adventure, laughs, romance, drama and kick ass music courtesy of Star- Lord’s (Chris Pratt) cassette player into a 136-minute film. Therefore, anyone looking for a movie that offers a variety of genres to see this summer, this is the movie to see
People are mystified by Harley Quinn and they praise her for all she seems to represent-female empowerment for example-but is this Harley Quinn any different from her past incarnation?
