Star Wars Saga Vs Anthology Films
The new Star Wars films franchise are going to be divided into two main properties. The Skywalker Saga and the rest will be Anthology films. Spinoff Reports: “The Saga films focus on the Skywalker family saga,” Kennedy said in an interview with Costco Connection. “The stories follow a linear narrative that connects to the previous six film. ‘The Force Awakens’ follows ‘Return Of The Jedi’ and continues that generational story. The...
Ron Perlman joins Fantastic Beasts
Ron Perlman has played a loveable demon, a hate-able biker, a flamboyant superhero and a rapist school headmaster (forget that last one) and now he will likely be playing a Troll in the Harry Potter prequel Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them. Jon Voight, Gemma Chan, Carmen Ejogo, Katherine Waterston, Colin Farrell, Ezra Miller, Dan Fogler and Samantha Morton have also been cast but their roles are unknown....
Wasteland Festival brings Mad Max to Life
There’s a new post apocalyptic middle of the desert festival like Buring Man, but this one is far cooler. The Wasteland Festival in California set up a recreation of the Mad Max world and this fan creation is worthy of the studios own attractions. Check it...
Anna Paquin Confirms she’s not Rogue in the Gambit Movie
Anna Paquin casually went on record to indicate that she – and therefore Rogue – would not be in the upcoming Gambit film. After being asked a few times on Twitter if she would appear she very succinctly said “no” without elaboration or opinion. I guess that’s when things blew up a bit and she clarified that she was just reacting based on what she knows. No one had approached her about being in the film....
Behind the Scenes – Designing DC’s Holy Trinity
In the above video from this week’s New York City ComicCon, we get to see some inside information about how they designed Superman, Batman and Wonder Woman’s looks for this version of the characters. What surprised me was costume designer Michael Wilkinson dropping that Diana (Wonder Woman) is immortal. I don’t recall her ever being immortal but that her super powers of resilience make her very resistant to aging....

Time reports: At the event, which will take place on Dec. 3, guests will be served at tables of 10. Your ticket includes a wand (yes!) and two courses of a Christmas dinner “with all the...
Dimensions Voice Cast includes Pratt, Fox and Banks!
Lego Dimensions is set to take over the new gaming subgenre of console games that includes figurines to unlock characters and levels in game. But Lego Dimensions is more than a mashup of the Lego Movie crossover worlds and console gaming. Many of the original voice actors of those characters have returned to their iconic roles just for the video game! Chriss Pratt, Gary Oldman Michael J Fox, Christopher Lloyd, Joel McHale, Alison Brie...
Olivia Cooke joins Ready Player One
Ready Player One is beginning its casting and the character of Art3mis may be played by Oliva Cooke, currently staring on Bates Motel. io9 says: Cooke is currently in negotiations for the role. She is known for her work in Bates Motel as Emma Decody and as Rachel in Me And Earl And The Dying Girl. Ready Player One is a popculture hidden gem of a novel that was among the only ones that I literally could not put down. I started reading...
Is Deckard a Replicant?
The Blade Runner sequel will finally dispel one of the mysteries we have never really wanted to know. Is Rick Deckard actually a Replicant? ComicBook reports: Director Ridley Scott has since thrown such ambiguity to the wind, confirmed that Rick Deckard was definitely a replicant. But something doesn’t add up. Replicants were supposed to have a built in lifespan of 4 years, but Harrison Ford is reprising his role as Deckard the in the...
Electro Woman and Dyna Girl – Then, When and Now!
The super stoner Krofft Brothers, Sid and Marty may have given you nightmares with their whimsical but super creepy H.R.Puffinstuff, but most of you won’t remember Electro Woman and Dyna Girl. The show was meant to be a send up spoof of the 1966 Batman series, but didn’t last past its 16 episode “season”. It appeared as segments of the Krofft Supershow that also brought you Schlepp the Wonder Bug (a spoof of...
More Speculation on The Hulk in Civil War
It’s been said already that The Hulk will be absent for Captain America 3: Civil War, and quite frankly that might be the only thing that stops this from being Avengers: Civil War. According to a translated portion of a news article in a German Tabloid ComicBook Resources quotes: While some details have most likely been lost in translation, Mark Ruffalo is Mark Ruffalo in any language. The report notes that the actors hung out...
Epic Rap Battles Stan Lee vs Jim Henson
Epic Rap battles always expose some deep dark dirty truth then gloss it over. Just what you think is dirt being slung at Lee and Henson, the truth comes out and hits hard. Three little circles that rule the world.
Rowdy Roddy Piper dies at 61
Rowdy Roddy Piper was always my favourite. Mostly because my family called me Roddy until I was in highschool, which is when I formally switched to Rodney. He was considered a villain – a heel. He was supposed to be a badguy. But everyone loved him. He was “the most gifted entertainer in the history of professional wrestling”. No one ever got the crowds riled up as much as he did. Just last month he was dropped from...
Deadpool will be Rated R
Of all the ways possible to break the news that Deadpool will be Rated R (AA in Canada), this may well be the BEST way! Ryan Reynolds reprises his role as Deadpool, and confirms that this is a different take on the presumed fate of Deadpool in Wolverine Origins (presumably altered by the events in Days of Future Past) and then rather surprisingly delivers the news that Deadpool will be Rated R. If this is even a hint at the type of...
Robert Downey Jr Delivers Bionic Arm
Technology is a beautiful thing, but not nearly as beautiful as the joy and wonderment it could bring to a child who doesn’t have an arm! See, Alex was born with one underdeveloped arm, and instead of having to rewatch Finding Nemo a dozen times to see that he is special even with one tiny fin, a tech company decided to help him out. Then comes Albert Manero. He is a student that builds 3d Printed robotics and he developed a low...
Mission Impossible Rogue Nation Trailer is Online
The latest Mission Impossible not only has a name – Rogue Nation – but now it’s got a trailer… and TOM CRUISE! I have always liked the action and intrigue of the Mission Impossible films, and Jeremy Renner is a nice addition but its always been about Cruise. And Simon Pegg! I look forward to this for Pegg...
Batman Arkham Knight Delayed until June
I have played all of the Batman Arkham games from Asylum to City to Origins and while it saddens me that this will be Rocksteady’s last version of the game (I hope it continues forever) the newest chapter is coming out soon. Well, less soon than we thought, but an official delayed release date has been announced. But while we are pining over the delay of this game, check out some extended gameplay footage! That was pretty...

50 Shades of Wayne Mashup Trailer is Creepy
With the Twilightesque blind popularity of 50 Shades of Rape Grey, it was only a matter of time before it was spoofed. But when this particular spoof artist decided to mashup another famous fictional millionaire into the trailer, we saw an even darker side of the man who would be the Dark Knight. Bruce Wayne. I wonder if this works so well because of the scenes in which Bruce was trying to be the irresponsible millionaire playboy jerk...
