Looks Like JUSTICE LEAGUE is Coming to iTunes This Month
Justice League has been out for about a month and a half now. We all know by now that the box office results have been disappointing; in fact, it likely won’t break even. However, we may now know when the film will be available on digital platforms. The iTunes pre-order page (via Batman-News) says that Justice League will be available on Tuesday, January 23rd. That’s about two months after the film’s theatrical release; a smaller window than usual for these movies. Additionally, movies typically go on iTunes and other digital stores at least a couple weeks before the Blu-Ray/DVD release, so if this date is accurate, then Justice League will…

BLACK PANTHER Runtime Possibly Revealed
We’re only a month away from the release of Marvel Studios’ next blockbuster, Black Panther. The film’s marketing campaign is expected to heat up soon, with some sort of sneak peek airing on ESPN’s College Football National Championship next week. Now, we may know the movie’s runtime. Event Cinemas lists the runtime for Black Panther as 2 hours and 15 minutes (or 135 minutes). It’s unconfirmed if this is the final runtime, but if it is, it wouldn’t be shocking. The last three Marvel movies (Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2, Spider-Man: Homecoming, and Thor: Ragnarok) all had runtimes of 130+ minutes, so for the next movie to have a similar…

JUSTICE LEAGUE Finally Passes $650 Million Worldwide
We’ve talked before about just how underwhelming Justice League‘s box office has been. It is supposed to be the biggest DC movie yet, with a $300 million budget and a cast of the company’s biggest characters. However, it is expected to be the lowest grossing DC Films title to date. This weekend, Justice League finally passed one box office benchmark. According to Box Office Mojo, the movie has currently grossed about $225.6 million domestically and $427 million internationally, bringing its worldwide total to $652.6 million. Gitesh Pandya projects that Justice League will finish somewhere in the $660 million range, just below Man of Steel‘s $668 million. It’s also noticeably below…

Mid-Season Recap: ARROW Season 6
We’re back to talk about Arrow season six! We last left off, with Oliver getting [mostly] everyone off of Lian Yu, Slade going on a quest to find his son, and Green Arrow’s identity being revealed. A reminder that this is a spoiler recap so come back later if you’re not caught up. We also can’t cover every single detail. If I miss anything (likely) sorry in advance. So with that out of the way – let’s get into it. Ollie has to deal with being under investigation as his identity was revealed in the previous episode. The show episode ends with the picture being fake, but that doesn’t stop Agent…

The main X-Men series returns for a new (and final?) installment next fall with Dark Phoenix, the second adaptation of the beloved story arc.

Confirmed: KRYPTON is Not Set in the DC Films Universe
Early on in development of Krypton, fans speculated that the SyFy series would be a prequel to Man of Steel and, thus, the greater DC Films Universe. This was fueled by writer/producer David Goyer saying that the show takes place 200 years before Man of Steel, along with some visuals in the trailer that looked similar to the movie. However, turns out there is no real connection. ComicBook has confirmed with SyFy that Krypton will not take place in DC Films’ shared universe. Also, don’t expect it to connect to other Superman-related projects, such as The CW’s Supergirl. It is very much its own thing. With Krypton in its own universe, it…
