Despite kick-starting the superhero movie boom back in 2000, the X-Men franchise has struggled to keep a consistent quality. The cracks first started in 2006 with the release of X-Men: The Last Stand. It’s had the odd glimmer of hope in the forms of X-Men: Days of Future Past and Logan, but overall it’s been more misses than hits. Unfortunately it sounds as though the latest (and possibly last) X-Men film, X-Men: Dark Phoenix may end up being yet another miss. The damning report comes courtesy of We Got This Covered who explain that somebody who has seen a early…

Warning! X-Men: Dark Phoenix spoilers ahead! Like many of you, I watched the new trailer for Spider-Man: Far From Home earlier today and when it finished, the trailer for X-Men: Dark Phoenix started automatically playing. It was at this point that I realized I had never actually bothered to watch it and now that I have, I’m still not really excited. This is in part down to the fact that we already know that this is likely the last time we will see this version on the characters before they move onto bigger and better things as part of the…

Whilst there have been R-Rated comic book movies for over twenty years now, it’s only since the massive success of 2016’s Deadpool that studios have started looking at them as less of a risk. However the question on everybody’s minds has been whether the typically family-friendly, Disney, will get on the R-Rated train and if a recent report is to be believed, that train may be about to leave the station – and it may begin with the Black Widow movie set within the MCU. A recent tweet from That Hashtag Show’s Charles Murphy has hinted that the long awaited…

Now, I’m gonna be honest. I’m pretty far behind on AMC’s The Walking Dead, so I can’t really talk about what’s going on in the show at the moment but thankfully my knowledge of the comic book series means I’m not in the dark about the teaser trailer released via IGN to herald the return of the series in February. The exceedingly creepy trailer, which you can check out below, focuses on what will become the big threat of the remaining episodes of Season Nine, namely that of The Whisperers – a group of survivors who use the skin of…

This article contains plot details for Captain Marvel and possibly Avengers: Endgame. When it was first announced that Captain Marvel was going to take place in the nineties, many fans were initially confused how she would go on to interact with Earth’s Mightiest Heroes in the present day. Many fans thought the answer to this question lay in the post-credits scene in Ant-Man and the Wasp in which Janet Van Dyne warned Paul Rudd’s minuscule hero of the dangers of ‘Getting sucked into a Time Vortex’. However, a recent comment from star Samuel L. Jackson has possibly revealed how this…

One of the biggest problems that fans tend to have with Hollywood Blockbusters such as the MCU, is that by the time film is eventually released, they feel like they’ve already seen the best parts in the multitude of trailers that the studio has put out. Thankfully it sounds as though this isn’t going to be the case with the highly anticipated Avengers: Endgame – if some recent comments from Marvel head honcho, Kevin Feige are anything to go by. Read on to check them out. Whilst attending the 76th Golden Globes on Sunday evening, Feige was asked by MTV about…

At this point in time, what’s going on in regards to Batman in the DC Extended Universe is anyone’s guess. Last time we saw the character was in 2017’s Justice League, but as it stands, there has been no official confirmation on when we can next expect to see The Dark Knight return. Last we heard was that War of The Planet of the Apes director, Matt Reeves, had turned in his script for his upcoming Batman solo film but other than that we don’t even have an official release date. However, a recent article has pointed to the troubled…

After single-handedly revolutionizing the way we actually watch television, Netflix seem to be at it again – this time by making it so you can’t actually just watch and enjoy. This new style interactive television comes courtesy of Black Mirror: Bandersnatch which was released to the streaming service last week. In it, viewers are encouraged to make decisions which alter the film’s plot as you go along which can result in some vastly different endings. Whilst many have praised this unique way of storytelling, others have been more critical with some comments even forcing one of the film’s stars off…
