Rumors swirl about Disney rehiring James Gunn

Variety is reporting some rumors today that they have an inside source on the whole James Gunn issue. Acourding to this source, it’s looking pretty good that James Gunn will be rehired for GOTG Vol3. From Variety: Sources say there has been a growing feeling that Gunn could be reinstated, especially because Marvel and Disney have been unusually radio-silent on who could replace him since the firing.

New Venom trailer has dropped

Check out the new Venom trailer below. We’re treated to much more footage of everyone’s most beloved symbiote. Watching this trailer I can’t help but feel a little too much was borrowed from the character of Carnage (blade arms?). We can’t help but miss the white spider that is traditional logo of the Venom character. However this trailer does treat us to more exposition and a little more of the plot. Let us know what...

Sandlot prequel in development at Fox

The Hollywood Reporter shared the news that a prequel to the Sandlot is in early development at 20th Century Fox. The nostalgia strumming film tells the story of a group of young kids who form a bond over the course of a summer playing ball, culminating into a crazy adventure to save a Babe Ruth signed ball that lands in the backyard of a cranky neighbor with a beast that eats kids (spoiler alert, it’s just...

Book Review: Rebel Rising

Let me begin with: if you haven’t seen Rogue One, there’s going to be spoilers below. So stop reading, watch the movie, then come back. Okay are you done? Okay let’s go. I’m a huge fan of Rogue One.

Daisy Ridley (Rey), Adam Driver (Kylo Ren), John Boyega...

Spoiler Alert: Castle Rock Series Premier Review

Hulu became the latest location on Stephen King’s map of places where creepy shit happens tonight as the much anticipated Castle Rock series premiered on the streaming service. I’ve been a Stephen King fan since I was first able to read the words in his 1983 scare fest Pet Sematary. That book still to this day creeps me the hell out (and I can’t wait to see what they do with the upcoming movie –...

New Comic Book Day round up: Wonder Woman #51

I was speaking with Steve Orlando about his then future run on Wonder Woman back on June 9th while doing a signing at Aw-Yeah Comics in Harrison, NY. After blurting out all my expectations for his run he assured he had fun playing with the characters. I came around the line a second time as the store began to clear out and touched more and Wonder Woman as a character and how much he enjoyed...

Former Boston Celtic and LA Laker small forward as well as esports franchise owner Rick Fox served as the the Forum host moderator and commented: “I am proud to have the opportunity to support the beginning of a discussion between the Olympic...

Mark Hamill punked us all with his twitter post!

Earlier we posted about the fun costume Mark Hamill said he donned at SDCC to poke fun President Trump. Thanks to some cleaver sleuths on the Facebook group ‘SDCC Attendees’, we have learned in fact that it was NOT Mark Hamill in the Orange Vader costume. A few members were quick to point out that they actually sat next to this fine person when they removed the helmet and it was NOT, Mark Hamill.
