Ezra and the Sith Holocron – Steps Into Shadow Preview | Star Wars Rebels

Media Release

There are intense days ahead for the Ghost crew when “Star Wars Rebels” returns for its third season. Ezra’s more powerful than ever (powerful enough to take on an Imperial Walker on his own) and he might look for guidance in a very unlikely place. A new clip from the upcoming season sees Ezra picking up an object that, if he’s not careful, might have a major impact on his destiny. The hour-long Season 3 premiere, “Steps Into Shadows,” will feature more than just the Sith holocron; it will also…

Agents of SHIELD With Ghost Rider Gets Lowest Premiere Rating

Media Release

The addition of Ghost Rider and the move to the new 10pm ET timeslot didn’t help out Marvel’s Agents Of SHIELD. Last night’s Agents of SHIELD Season 4 premiere netted the lowest ratings for the series’ season premiere episode dropping by almost 1.5 million viewers. “The Ghost” was viewed by 3.44 million people, which is down from the Agents of SHIED season three premiere of 4.9 million. Season 2 saw 5.98 million, and a whopping 12.12 million tuned in for the very first episode back in 2013. It’s probably safe…

Alan Ritchson as Shazam?

Media Release

Have we found our Shazam with Alan Ritchson? The actor answered a fan’s question on Twitter, “So you’re gonna play Shazam, right?” Alan Ritchson replied with a big, “Yup!” That sure sounds like he’s playing Shazam! However, is Alan Ritchson playing the CGI version of the character? Ritchson played the CGI version of Raphael in the TMNT movies, so it’s possible WB could be going a digital route for Shazam. We’ll have to wait until official word comes from WB, but it’s possible Alan Ritchson could be playing Shazam opposite…

Silver Surfer #6 Review

Media Release

I’ve not been reading many Marvel Comics of late. Secret Wars wasn’t my cup of tea, providing a great opportunity to stop purchasing digitally day and date and finally use my Marvel Unlimited subscription. Civil War 2 pulling the line together again – well, more like strangling it – has seen me buying only books I really, really like. Vision, Scarlet Witch, Hellcat… and Silver Surfer. There’s a wonderful breeziness to this series as the Surfer and companion Dawn Greenwood explore the literal Marvel Universe. Big fights, big Terra-Forms, occasionally,…

Amazing Spider-Man #17 Review Dan Slott

Media Release

By Matthew Mueller Someone should probably buy The Jackal a dictionary because it doesn’t seem he understands what the term Good Guy means. Writer Dan Slott continues to build to his upcoming 90’s reanimation project, The Clone Conspiracy, and the latest issue of Amazing Spider-Man adds two more characters to the dead no more pile, but we’ll get to that in a bit. First, it should be pointed out just how little Peter Parker is actually in his own book, but the upside of that is the increased screen time…

Here’s the latest on the series Star Trek: Discovery

Media Release

We knew the lead character in Star Trek: Discovery would be female – and not a captain – but turns out we won’t learn her name… at least, at first. “When we introduce our protagonist, she is called Number One,” Fuller told Ain’t It Cool News – noting that the moniker’s a tribute to Majel Barrett‘s character from the original Trek pilot. We will learn our new hero’s name by the end of the first 13-part season, though… Why just 13 episodes? Fuller thinks any more would “fatigue the show”,…

Game of Thrones Season 7 will have a later debut than normal next year thanks to the arrival of winter, but the cast is already preparing us for what’s to come, or rather, telling us we can’t be prepared.

I’d start preparing yourselves now… scratch that, nothing will prepare you for this… Holy BALLS.” In related news, Jon Snow himself, Kit Harrington, claims to…

Tyler Hoechlin Will Be More Classic Superman

Media Release

Posted by: Matt McGloin It’s probably safe to assume that the new Tyler Hoechlin Superman for Supergirl Season 2 won’t be snapping anyone’s neck, killing anybody or even meeting his maker. Zack Snyder can have that for the DCEU. Supergirl executive producer Andrew Kreiseberg fills in Collider what to expect from Tyler Hoechlin’s Superman. It’s learned they are going with a more classic route with the Man of Steel as their version is inspired by Christopher Reeve, Dean Cain and George Reeves and is more experienced than the Henry Cavill…

DC Comics Preview – Superman #6

Media Release

The Eradicator will learn someday that it’s all about the approach with people. You might have some worthy points to make about the survival of Kryptonian culture and all that other gobbledygook, but no one reacts well to threats, and especially when those threats are directed towards one’s wife, child, and lovable super dog. That’s what the Kryptonian that never seems to get the message will come to understand in the newest issue of Peter J. Tomasi and Patrick Gleason’s current run on Superman. Clark has absorbed about as much…
