The Predator hit theaters this past weekend, and while it was the #1 film at the box office, things weren’t exactly great. It made $24.6 million domestically, with $30 million overseas – which isn’t really a bad haul – until you realize the film’s budget was noticeably higher than the other films in the franchise at $88 million. For example, Predators (2010) had an almost identical opening at $24.7 million, but was budgeted at $40 million and made $127 million worldwide. Had this film featured a budget in that range, it would be looking at a profit. The new film, however,…

In a very interesting move for Disney’s upcoming streaming service, it’s been revealed that Loki, Scarlet Witch and other Marvel Characters are getting their own TV series on the platform. It’s big news, and definitely surprising, as it was assumed that any shows that would be produced on the platform would be something new – and not already established MCU characters. According to the Variety report: Disney is enlisting Earth’s Mightiest Heroes as the company prepares to launch its upcoming streaming service. The entertainment giant is in early development on an ambitious plan for a number of limited series centered on…

Captain Marvel saw its first trailer released today, and MCU fans couldn’t more excited. The trailer was great and didn’t really give away much of anything like most trailers seem to do these days. Marvel fans are on board (for the most part), as seen by some of the initial reactions: CORPS IM STILL SPEACHLESS! IM JUST WATCHING THE TRAILER AGAIN AND AGAIN #CaptainMarvel — Captain Marvel News ︽✵︽ (@CaptMarvelNews) September 18, 2018 IM NOT READY #CaptainMarvel pic.twitter.com/a2nRINPFiO — a tony stark supremacist (@tonystankstan) September 18, 2018 EVERY LITTLE GIRL FLIES. 😭 #CaptainMarvel pic.twitter.com/iIgpm9D4JM — Andrea Towers (@_atowers) September 18,…

The Captain Marvel trailer is finally here! After a wait that seemed like forever, MCU fans finally have what they’ve been asking for – and it definitely didn’t disappoint. The Brie Larson starring movie will be even more anticipated after this trailer, which is no surprise given Marvel’s great history of epic trailers that deliver. We were just given a first look at the film earlier this month, which revealed quite a bit – but obviously not as much as the trailer just did. Captain Marvel was originally supposed to debut in Avengers: Infinity War, but co-writer Christopher Markus revealed…

Earlier today, the Defenders Facebook page was changed to NX, which is a brand that Netflix plans on ushering in as their geek-friendly division of content. Yes, rather than leaving the Defenders Facebook page the way it was, they completely rebranded it to promote new content that people who follow the page don’t necessarily want to see. The comments section is full of backlash, prompting the company to (sort of) release a statement: Which prompted more backlash, as seen by a sample of some of the comments: Twitter also had a similar message: Watch to the end, trust me. pic.twitter.com/khCvqfvx4o…

The upcoming Joker movie starring Joaquin Phoenix is an interesting one, and one that many fans are sure about. On one hand it’s produced by Martin Scorsese – but on the other hand, WB hasn’t exactly had the best results with DC Comics movies. Either way, we now have our first look at Phoenix as the character – and it’s definitely going to be talked about: Todd Phillips has shared our first look at Joaquin Phoenix as “Arthur” aka the #Joker pic.twitter.com/u3Z6AWxEpk — Rotten Tomatoes (@RottenTomatoes) September 16, 2018 First photos of Joaquin Phoenix in ‘The Joker’. He’s playing the…

Matt Hardy, or how he’s referred to in WWE now, Woken Matt Hardy, has officially announced his retirement from in-ring competition in wrestling. It’s not exactly surprising given the type of brutal punishment the wrestler took over the years, but it does bring an end to a very short run in his return to WWE. In the video below, Hardy says “it’s time go home”. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y8_a4nUlUqU In a tweet, he said to support Bray Wyatt moving forward: Thanks for the massive love tonight, #WWECorpusChristi.. I fulfilled my final advertised live event commitment. Please support my partner, @WWEBrayWyatt, going forward. He’s…

The upcoming Venom movie will officially be rated PG-13, and many fans are disappointed with that news, including myself. That’s not to say that the film still couldn’t be a good movie, as there are plenty of good PG-13 movies, but this film has been hyping itself up to be R-Rated, and launch the darker Sony Marvel Universe. That apparently isn’t the case – and we now know what exactly the film will carry that rating. Venom has been rated PG-13 for intense sequences of sci-fi violence and action, and for language. It’s been said that the main reason Sony…

Captain Marvel is currently a trending topic, because it’s the next Marvel Cinematic Universe movie, and fans are eagerly awaiting the film’s first trailer following the first look we were given last week. Apparently, it won’t be too long, as a new rumor suggests we’re getting it next week! Post about the Captain Marvel trailer is being removed at the request of Disney. Sorry all. — Jeremy Conrad (@ManaByte) September 14, 2018 Official ABC press release: Brie Larson appearing on Good Morning America on Tuesday #CaptainMarvel pic.twitter.com/OalA31uAih — Jeremy Conrad (@ManaByte) September 14, 2018 I told you that you’d see…

Sony’s upcoming Venom movie is a pretty highly anticipated one, as many fans are wondering just how it’s going to turn out. Trailers have been pretty good, and many have hoped that it will be Rated R – like was initially hinted at. If you were one of those fans hoping for that, we have bad news for you. Venom has officially been rated PG-13. Yep, that’s right. Sony’s film that was allegedly supposed to be a horror film in the vein of John Carpenter and David Cronenberg has gone the safe route – in order to potentially crossover with…
