RUMOR: Armie Hammer is Our Next BATMAN *UPDATED*
UPDATE 2/19/19: Yahoo! UK contributor Hanna Flint asked Armie Hammer during an interview if he had been approached for the job of Batman. He said he has not been approached by anyone who can actually give him the job, and has not been asked for his availability. ORIGINAL STORY All things considered, we didn’t have to wait too long. After Ben Affleck offically left the role of the Caped Crusader, speculation as to who would wear the tights have run ramped. Thankfully, we can put our think pieces to rest (even though they were fantastic). Our friends over at Revenge of the Fans have got the scoop on who will…

THE PUNISHER and JESSICA JONES Cancelled, as the Marvel/Netflix Affair Finally Ends
Netflix played the role of grim reaper last year, suddenly ending most of its Marvel television slate. Iron Fist, Luke Cage, and Daredevil all got the axe, while The Defenders was never meant to continue beyond one season. And now, Netflix has confirmed the future (or lack thereof) of its final two shows. It has been announced that The Punisher and Jessica Jones have both been cancelled. The former premiered its season season last month. Meanwhile, Jessica Jones‘ third season is still set to debut sometime this year. This marks the official end of the Netflix/Marvel TV deal; every single show has been cancelled. Following the announcement, Marvel TV head Jeph Loeb…

Review: WONDER TWINS No. 1 – Wonder Twin Powers: Activate?

So, he enrolls them into high school and introduces them to the Justice League. The two need to adjust to life on earth while dealing with…

FEATURE: Five Shows We Want To See On DC Universe
With Doom Patrol now airing on DC’s streaming service, I thought to myself what other properties would be a great fit for the DC Universe streaming service? I really do believe that superhero-properties fits better as TV-shows due to the serialized nature of the comic books. These are five shows we want on DCU! Justice League Dark This feels like a no-brainer to me, the short-lived Constantine series on NBC was really good in my opinion but sadly NBC cancelled it after just one season. The CW however retroactively weaved in Matt Ryan’s version of Constantine into the Arrowverse. With shorter seasons and a bigger budget, I really think that…

Review: DOOM PATROL “Pilot”
“In the series premiere episode, the team – tired of being stuck in Doom Manor – decides to visit the local town while The Chief is away. However, this seemingly harmless field trip leads to some grave consequences, including an encounter with the mysterious and powerful Mr. Nobody (series star Alan Tudyk)” official synopsis – Doom Patrol “Pilot” Hot dang. That’s a way to start a show. The End (Just Kidding) Doom Patrol “Pilot” starts the series off right. The beginning team as it starts is Niles Caulder/The Chief (Timothy Dalton), Larry Trainor/Negative Man (Matt Bomer/Matthew Zuk), Cliff Steele/Robotman (Brendan Fraser/Riley Shanahan), Rita Farr/Elasti-Woman (April Bowlby), and Kay Challis/Crazy Jane(Diane Guerrero). The show introduces each character one by one.…

Revenge of The Fans has picked up the cast list for the first animated solo Wonder Woman movie since 2009.

Review: ALITA: BATTLE ANGEL – Tons of Heart But Not Much Else
Alita: Battle Angel is about a young cyborg girl who lost her memory. The film is about her discovering who she is. With the help of her friends, she realizes that she is the key to saving the world. Rosa Salazar stars as the titular character. She’s able to play this warm and innocent girl, but in an instant turn into an unbeatable fighting machine. The entire cast does well with what they’re given. Christoph Waltz (Dr. Dyson), Jennifer Connelly (Chiren), Mahershala Ali (Vector) and deliver solid performances. However, I wish there were given better material to work with. Narrative-wise the film is a bit of a mess. It lacks…

Captain Marvel has hit the tracking boards, and if early projections are any indication, it will continue Marvel’s streak. Right now, Captain Marvel is on track to open to a stellar $100 million+ over its debut weekend. This would make it the third MCU origin movie to reach that figure in its opening, following Iron Man and Black Panther. Of course, this is early tracking, so this number can always go higher or lower. But the film has generated a lot of positive buzz with its marketing, and it…
