July 5, 2017 by Jordan Jones

It almost feels that there would be no movie in the upcoming Spider-Man: Homecoming without the inclusion of Robert Downey Jr.’s Tony Stark playing mentor to Peter Parker. The two actors have an undeniable chemistry on-screen, and it’s hard to imagine Marvel going any other way with the film. Now, while we have heard that Nick […]

March 4, 2017 by Henry Bevan

Henry Bevan on why Iron Man is the best film in the Marvel Cinematic Universe… As the Marvel Cinematic Universe has grown into the blockbuster behemoth it is known as today, many people have forgotten about the film that started it all.

Why Thanos will make or break Avengers: Infinity War

February 12, 2017 by Anghus Houvouras

Anghus Houvouras on Thanos’ role in Avengers: Infinity War… My ambivalence with Marvel movies has been well documented. As I state in all my Marvel related rants, I may be the most consistently critical columnist writing about the mediocrity of Marvel movies online.

January 5, 2017 by Anghus Houvouras

Anghus Houvouras on the Marvel Cinematic Universe putting moments ahead of character motivation… I recently watched Captain America: Civil War again on Netflix. As pure pulpy popcorn picturesque entertainment goes, it’s a harmless romp. Over the last 18 months I’ve kind of cooled on the Marvel Cinematic Universe, and a lot of fellow fans and […]
