FLASH SPOILER Review: Episode 2×16 – “Trajectory”
The Flash (2×16) – “Trajectory” Written by: Lilah Vanderburgh & Lauren Certo Directed by: Glen Winter Okay! So between working thirteen days in a row, a little indie film I went and saw about the Dawn (Go ahead, ask me if I loved Batman v Superman!) and winter’s parting gift of a chest cold I’m not exactly timely with my Flash review but enough with the procrastination and on with the review. When we last left Barry and Team Flash he’d vowed to get fast enough to return to Earth-2, defeat Zoom and avenge Jay’s death. What better way to do that than recreate Evel Knievel at the Snake River…

James Wan Comments on His “Fun” AQUAMAN Movie and Exploring the Character’s World
At WonderCon this weekend, director James Wan appeared to promote his next film, The Conjuring 2. At that panel, he spoke with /Film and other journalists about his upcoming DC movie, Aquaman. Wan comments on his history with comic books, as well as his excitement to explore Aquaman’s world on the big screen. “I was never so in depth with Aquaman as, let’s say, I was with X-Men. I grew up loving X-Men, Spider-Man and Batman. Those are obviously the key big ones, but there’s always something kind of cool about Aquaman still, the idea of creating a huge world that is on our planet. That’s the thing about Aquaman that’s cool is…

BATMAN V SUPERMAN: The People v The Critics
I had the pleasure of seeing Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice twice now and I really enjoyed it. The one thing I noticed was the huge disparity between movie critics reviews of the film and fans reactions. The fans got to see the film at an IMAX event earlier this week and the response was overwhelmingly positive. Everyone talked about how this is one of their favorite superhero films ever, and how Zack Snyder is a visionary. The next day the media embargo lifted and news sites released their reviews of the film. The difference of opinion was shocking. Some critics said it was the worst superhero film in…

Review: BATMAN V SUPERMAN: DAWN OF JUSTICE
With the future of the DC universe hanging in the balance, many wonder if Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice can pull the weight of being both a good film and a jumping off point for future films. Director Zack Snyder’s epic blockbuster is a continuation of 2013’s Man of Steel, and the end events of that film directly tie into this film. Snyder’s decision to not shy away from the controversial ending of Man of Steel gives the director a chance to not only defend his previous work, but also to build upon it. Man of Steel opened to mixed reviews from critics, with many citing overly bombastic action and…

Review: MAN OF STEEL
If you know me by following me on Twitter, you’d know I love Man of Steel. I’ve been in love with it ever since I saw it on June 14, 2013 (the day it came out), and have continued to defend it to this day. In case you didn’t know because you’ve been living under a rock the past three years, Man of Steel is one of the most divisive films to come out this decade. It either lived up to your expectations or it disappointed you heavily. Man of Steel lived up to my expectations; and then some. In Man of Steel, the planet of Krypton is on the verge…
