The Amazing Spider-Man the Movie

Walt

Sony has announced that Marc Webb’s Spider-Man reboot will be officially titled The Amazing Spider-Man.  That’s not too much of a surprise. Amazing Fantasy 15 and Amazing Spider-Man #1 was the first appearance of the character. Sony also released the first official photo of Garfield in his full Spider-Man costume, making clear that — like in the comics (but unlike in the Sam Raimi/Tobey Maguire Spider-Man movies) — this version of Peter Parker did indeed invent his web-slingers. Check out the photo below: The film, which is now in production and is being…

The All Star Superman Movie

Walt

Superman is probably the most notable hero and best know character of comic folklore. With all his changes from the debut in Action Comics #1 in 1939 he still remains the number one personification of a Super Hero. Faster than a speeding bullet, more powerful than a locomotive,  able to leap the tallest building in a single bound, he remains the hero for truth,  justice, and the American way. While the American way may have changed over the years the expectation of Superman to somehow save the day by doing…

Hellboy II Preview

Walt

Hellboy II This movie looks great and it’s unfortunate that it won’t get as much publicity as the new Batman flick. The creatures look incredible and if any of you haven’t seen Pan’s Labyrinth then you’re missing out! Yes, it’s in subtitles for those of you who don’t speak Espanol, but it’s an incredible movie. The creatures in it are certainly reflected here in the new Hellboy film. I’m actually looking forward to seeing this one more than the new Batman movie. Ok, so I’m looking forward to both. Here…
