There has been a ton of controversy over the last 12 hours over so as to whether Henry Cavill will no longer play Superman in the Warner Bros DC film universe. Initial rumors started this morning that he was out as the Man of Steel, which many sites ran as gospel, causing a fan uproar. There was even an unfounded rumor of WB looking to replace Cavill with Michael B. Jordan. However, tweets from Cavill’s management and a word from WB themselves seem to have reversed the course of these rumors, and have many sites backpedaling like crazy. But, that…

Season 3 of Marvel’s Daredevil has been kept in the shadows a bit, but now thanks to a tweet from Netflix Thailand, we may have a release date – and it’s not too far away at all. Marvel’s Netflix series have been a rollercoaster of hits and misses, with Jessica Jones having an amazing first season, followed by a lackluster second, Luke Cage seemingly getting better with each season, and Iron Fist having a dismal first season, only to turn it around with a much better second. Daredevil even had its detractors from Season 1 to Season 2, but everyone…

Man, do I love Henry Cavill! Not only does this man love what he does and loves his fans, but he has no problem taking a stab at some of the idiocy that has surrounded him today! With the rumors that started this morning about his departure as Superman, fans have been in a downright tizzy over whether it is true or not. While many sites took the rumor as definitive and declared he term as the Man of Steel to be over, his manager and WB posted contrary posts to say he’s still the Big Blue Boy Scout. Now,…

It’s only been out for a couple of days, but Insomniac Games’ Spider-Man for the PlayStation 4 is already making waves for its superior gameplay, spectacular story line, and amazing graphics (see what I did there?). But, leave it to the internet trolls to find something wrong with the web-slinger’s greatest volley into video games. Machinima created a video over on their Facebook to talk about ‘PuddleGate’. And, by talk about it, I mean, tongue-in-cheek discuss this ridiculous issue from some fans. It would seem that during some of the early gameplay trailers, there were many more puddles around New…

Marvel’s Daredevil Season 3 on Netflix is shaping up to be the darkest season for the Devil of Hell’s Kitchen yet, and I’m not just talking about the lighting. In a season supposedly inspired by the critically acclaimed Born Again storyline from the comics, this season looks to see Matt Murdock shed his civilian persona and fully become the Daredevil, as shown by the new teaser trailer at the end of the second season of Iron Fist. “I once believed that justice could be found in a court of law, and in the light of day. But I was fooling myself.…

It seems like a new theory about the Marvel Cinematic Universe pops up every hour or so. Most of these are just mindless babble, more fan fiction or pipe dreams rather than a concise, researched, and well thought out theory. However, there is an occasional diamond in the rough, and we may have just found one. Over on the Reddit Fan Theories subthread, user KRHeff has posted a theory about the Infinity Stones and Odin, The All-Father. Piggybacking off of another theory that Odin, at one time, had searched for the stones himself, but gave up when a sacrifice was…

It looks like Marvel Comics will be introducing a whole new Guardians of the Galaxy team, and it could very well be a crazy one. While the future of the MCU Guardians is uncertain, the comics look to shake the very foundation of the team to its core with possibly the most insane lineup in their tenure, one that could even include Galactus! Marvel announced that the team would be returning to its only solo run after the title was cancelled back in January of 2018. Donny Cates and Geoff Shaw have been tagged to helm the book, coming of…

So much news is bombarding the internet as production for Spider-Man: Far From Home hits a fever pace. Seeing as how the film is the first of the Marvel Cinematic Universe’s Phase 4, and will directly deal with the fallout from the still untitled Avengers 4 (said to take place a mere minutes after the conclusion of said film), it makes sense that some familiar faces would pop up to join Spidey in his latest adventure. With the set leaks showing Samuel L. Jackson, Cobie Smulders, and Jon Favreau shooting some scenes released just hours ago, a new rumor has…

There has been a bombardment of news and updates to come out of this week’s first look at Captain Marvel yesterday, and there’s only going to be more throughout the week. We’ve gotten our first look at the Skrulls, seen the return of familiar faces, and finally got to see the true, comic accurate, Captain Marvel costume. But, one of the pictures released holds a little MCU Easter Egg that connects Carol Danvers with not only the Avengers, but with the Guardians of the Galaxy as well. And, it even gives a connection to the Fox Marvel properties, long before the…

Yesterday saw the release a bunch of new ‘First Look’ pictures of the upcoming Marvel Cinematic Universe film, Captain Marvel. The first Marvel female super-heroine solo flick is set to hit theaters in March of 2019, and while we still haven’t gotten a trailer, we did get some good looks at many of the characters in the film, as well as some news on the story. One of the pictures released was of actress Lashana Lynch as Maria Rambeau, a fellow fighter pilot with Carol Danvers who uses the call-sign, ‘Photon’. This picture has led to a new theory on some…
