What Is X-Men timeline For Logan

Walt

Even for our resident comic book nerds, Fox’s X-Men movie timeline is extremely confusing. There’s the rubbish post-apocalyptic world that they managed to prevent in X-Men: Days of Future Past, and the happy final scene where Wolverine was reunited with his old friends. Then you get X-Men: The Final Stand, in which Professor X (among many other characters) was killed, which puts it outside of both those timelines. And then there’s a separate one where X-Men: Apocalypse and the future films are now set, right? Well, we can’t offer a…

Walt

They’re back. Check out this sneak peek of “Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2” coming to theaters May 5, 2017! The first trailer is full of cryptic looks at the team, including Yondu, Nebula, and new costumes for Gamora and Star-Lord, but ends with one solid gag—Drax consoling Star-Lord after a seeming breakup with Gamora. “You just need to find someone who is pathetic, like you.” Awesome.

Marvel’s Civil War II – Success or Failure?

Walt

When Marvel Comics began teasing a sequel to their Civil War comic book event last year I had mixed feeling that it could be done again and succeed as a major crossover story arc again. Are they tryng to capitalize on the fact that it is the 10th anniversary of the original series written by Mark Millar and art by Steve McNiven or the fact that the Cinematic Universe experienced a Civil War of its own in the third Captain America movie. Some would say that if done well it…

Walt
