October 21, 2017 by Anghus Houvouras

Anghus Houvouras on Marvel’s villains… Next year Marvel Studios will turn ten years old. This milestone is being marked with a celebration that Kevin Feige touched briefly upon.

Critical Thinking: Iron Fist and the broad strokes of whitewashing

March 8, 2017 by Anghus Houvouras

Anghus Houvouras on Marvel’s Iron Fist and the broad strokes of whitewashing… Diversity is one of those troubling topics of conversation that always places you on the precipice of wedging your creps firmly in your soft palate. Especially when you’re white, since conventional logic tells me that the only opinion I should have on any […]

January 21, 2018 by George Chrysostomou

George Chrysostomou on the multiverse… The DC TV shows that can be found on The CW are unique for one very specific reason. Although it is rare for TV shows to crossover, there is an element to these superhero stories that is heavily relied upon to move the narrative forward, offering solutions to new characters, […]

The Costumes of Doctor Strange

March 5, 2017 by admin

Benedict Cumberbatch is Doctor Strange, the Master of the Mystic Arts, in the latest movie from Marvel Studios. A disciple of mysticism and powerful magic, Strange has come to reject materialism, so it’s doubtful he’d ever claim that clothes maketh the man – but at least as far as moviemaking goes, costumes will play a […]

Scott Derrickson says Marvel is too busy with Phase Three to green light Doctor Strange 2

January 29, 2017 by Gary Collinson

Given that Doctor Strange grossed $659.9 million from its release late last year, it’s inevitable that Benedict Cumberbatch’s Sorcerer Supreme will return for a sequel, although as yet there’s been no official word from Marvel Studios. And, according to director Scott Derrickson, we may have a little wait on our hands before we get the […]
