Trailer: Captain America: Civil War + Posters and Screenshots!

It has been quite some time since a post has been, well... posted. So what's a better way than doing a post about the first Captain America: Civil War trailer? I thought so.

The first trailer dropped not long ago and it was glorious in every way! We got to see the teams forming and see everything start falling into place for one epic fight. One epic Civil War (see what I did there).

We end up getting a great first glimpse of Black Panther in full costume and keeping his end of the fight very interesting. We are still waiting for our first glimpse of the elusive Spider-Man. In due time my friends. In due time.

So here is the trailer along with 3 Posters and some screenshots I took to get a better look at things including Black Panther, the teams, and the registration act itself.

Marvel Studios the Biggest Movie Franchise Ever Now

This comes to no shock to anyone that watches movie ever. Marvel has officially became the highest grossing movie series in the domestic box office with over $2.46 billion in sales over 9 movies.

That surpasses Harry Potter (8 movies), Star Wars (6 movies), and James Bond (23 films) to be the top grossing franchise. That is pretty prestigious thing to get just with 9 movies.

Captain America: The Winter Soldier is currently raising the number as it broke box office records for opening weekend. Also, with a list of movies coming out over the next couple of years, expect it to continue to rise above all others.

Comic-Con: Avengers Sequel Officially Titled 'Avengers: Age of Ultron' + Logo!

Marvel just dropped a huge bomb! They sneakily entered a quick little trailer into their Hall H presentation for the Avengers sequel! It is officially titled Avengers: Age of Ultron.

This was a huge surprise and greatly loved by anyone who read the crossover series this summer! This is big news for where we will see this series go. We actually might get to see more of Hank Pym before  the Antman movie likely.

The footage was showing a alien temple with a man walking up to it and than some quick footage of The Avengers with lines from the first one. Than we get a shot of Ultron's pretty CGI face! Than bam title pops up to crowd applause.

I can not wait for this!

'Iron Man 3' Director Shane Black Signs on for 'Doc Savage'

Shane Black will stick around in the superhero realm for a little while longer now.

Sony announced today that Shane Black, who recently directed the hit Iron Man 3, will co-write and direct an adaptation of "Doc Savage", a film about on a pretty popular character from way back in the 30's and 40's.

Black has been hovering over this project for some time and has never fully attached himself to it until today. He has been really intrigued by the character and where he could take the man and his entourage.

No casting, release date, or anything really besides this as been announced. Check back soon!

New Iron Man 3 Trailer is Crazy Awesome!

The newest trailer for Iron Man 3 hit the net and it's pretty epic! The first trailer gave us the feeling of dread and darkness, which is new for the series. Naturally we were wondering if the newest trailer would continue that mood and I have to say its there. I love it!

Shane Black taking over the reigns of the franchise was a fantastic breathe of air because of his great dialogue and sense of humor. You have to love Lethal Weapon or Kiss Kiss, Bang Bang. The man has put his action background into overdrive for this film as the trailer shows. I only hope that Stark and Rhodes have a Lethal Weapon partner relationship feel to them.

Check out the insane action driven trailer below

Rumor: Marvel has Big Plans for Hulk after Avengers 2

POTENTIAL SPOILERS FOR MARVEL'S FUTURE FILMS!!!

This is some big news, if it turns out to be true, we will be seeing more Hulk than we initially thought. Bruce Banner/Hulk isn't getting his own film in Marvel's Phase II, although he was the life and best part of The Avengers. So, what does that mean for the big giant? Well, he will be given a Phase III movie and a huge part of The Avengers 3. Now, just take all of what I said and will say as rumors from  a source at Latino Review (which they have been pretty spot on with a lot of Marvel news).

So, stating that we are having a huge slate of Phase II sequels to Thor, Captain America, Iron Man, The Avengers, and new entries Guardians of the Galaxy than Ant-Man, and Doctor Strange for Phase III. The Hulk is nowhere in sight until The Avengers 2. Well, with what rumors have been circulating, the Hulk will be given a third act or post-credit scene to set up his on film in Phase III. Pretty sweet huh? gets better…

The Hulks next standalone film is based on Planet Hulk! That is just awesome!!

• So how does that post-credit scene lead up to that? The Marvel Cinematic version of the Illuminati (in comics consist of Iron Man, Reed Richards, Black Bolt, Prof. X, etc…) will deem the Hulk too dangerous for Earth and ship the guy into space. He will end up on a plant…Planet Hulk…well actually it's called Sakaar. He will go to gladiator-type games against other aliens, while being enslaved and then becomes a hero and starts a rebellion against the King. *causes trouble everywhere doesn't he*. 

Doesn't end there, no sir! 

• Well, somewhere down the line Hulk makes his way back to earth. And I don't know about you but I'd be a wee bit POed at the guys who sent me into deep space. So the rumors go that The Avengers 3 will largely be based the hit series World War Hulk, where Banner and his new army take on the Avengers, who banished him. Sounds absolutely crazy! So crazy it just might work. 

This is all speculation for now, but if true we shall see Hulk be a bigger part in the Marvel Cinematic Universe with adaptions of Planet Hulk and World War Hulk. Expect news to come ! 

Cover Art and Release Date for Iron Man: Rise of the Technovore

Iron Man is coming at us full force this year with Iron Man 3 hitting theaters on May 3rd. Although first we will get a direct-to-video feature film starring Iron Man called Iron Man: The Rise of Technovore on April 16th. Thats quite a lot of Iron Man this spring. 

Here is the full official synopsis: Billionaire Tony Stark, in his Iron Man armor, prevents an attack from a mysterious new foe, but innocent bystanders are killed, including his best friend War Machine, Lt. Colonel James Rhodes.  Detained for questioning by S.H.I.E.L.D., Iron Man escapes, determined to find the mastermind behind the attack. Pursued by Black Widow and Hawkeye, Iron Man enlists the help of the ruthless vigilante The Punisher.  But can the Armored Avenger handle what he finds when he catches the person responsible and is forced to face his deadliest weapon, a biotechnology called Technovore that could wipe out all life on the planet?

Is it just me or did that pretty much give us the entire plot to the film….. anyways sounds pretty cool. Espcaiclly really awesome to bring The Punisher into it because he needs some love now too. 

Iron Man/Tony Stark will be voiced bu Matthew Mercer and The Punisher/Frank Castle by Norman Reedus (sounds like a goodish take on it). 

Iron Man: Rise of the Technovore hits streets on Blu-ray and DVD April 16th 

Rumor: Iron Man 3 to Have Guardians of the Galaxy Cameo?

If Marvel does one thing great, that one thing is cameos in all their films to date. All the way back to Iron Man 1 to The Avengers. So why would it stop at Iron Man 3? I didn't think it would, but hearing Tony Stark himself, Robert Downey Jr., say 

“But we can’t help it — everywhere you look now in every Marvel movie there are opportunities where certain new pals of [Tony’s] could be useful. So they’re in the atmosphere, so to speak, but I wouldn’t expect to see them on the ground in this one.”

See! Good play on words there good sir. The choice of words never really gave us any proof he will team up to battle, but they never touch ground gives us something around like Guardians of the Galaxy.  Guardians isn't even casting yet, but maybe we will see something filmed before the release this summer.

Here is the pretty slick "deep space suit" for Iron Man 3 toy line. It's adorable and gives us some spoilers about were Tony will take an adventure to.

Also, Latino Review got a exclusive news from their "insiders" saying

"According to sources, at the end of Iron Man 3, Tony actually does go up into space to hook up with the Guardians of The Galaxy where I also hear he appears at the end of that movie as well." 

That is pretty huge news! This fits perfectly into Marvels grand scheme of cameos quite nicely. Then guessing all this will end up with Thanos being villain for The Avengers 2.

Happy Halloween Everyone

We just wanted to say Happy Halloween everyone!!! 

Check out the cool Pumpkins We made this year. Mine (Benjamin) is Bane and I was shown up big time by my girlfriend Megan with Iron Man. I mean seriously look at that beast! 

First Trailer for 'Iron Man 3' has Arrived

The trailer for Iron Man 3 has arrived as promised from Apple Trailers. My first reactions to it are holy cow! this is going to awesome! They went dark for the third time around and it fits nicely.

The trailer gives us so many clues to the plot and where the Marvel Cinematic Universe is heading for phase II. We get confirmation that it does take place after the event in The Avengers with hearing how what happened in New York affected him. Also, we see how Tony is breaking down and probably regretting unveiling who he is now. Good thinking Batman for staying hidden.

The next biggest question from the trailer for me is "will the Mandarin have ties to Captain America?!" watch the trailer below and when we see Ben Kingsley from behind we see the Captain America shield  tattooed to his back. Did he get drunk one night and do it? was it a dare? who knows?

Here is the trailer

This is going to be a big week for Marvel, especially Iron Man because we have been given an official poster for the film and a first creepy image of the big bad villain The Mandarin. Also, the best part is the  trailer gets released tomorrow!!

The first poster gives us a great look at armor trophy case I mean Hall of Armor. It looks pretty sweet and full of lots of Iron. It shall hold me up until the trailer premieres. 

An extra cool little tidbit given out today is the first image of Ben Kingsley as The Mandarin! He looks very creepy and great pube beard if i do say so myself. Put's my uncle Tommy to shame. Check it out

Editorial: Top 8 Robert Downey, Jr. Films

Robert Downey, Jr. is an actor who has seen every aspect of Hollywood from being on the D-list all the way to a comeback to A-list where he belongs. Downey started his career a few decades ago as a child and grew more fame in 80's appearing as a distant "Brat Pack" member. He started to take a more serious tone in the early 90's with academy recognition. Although, his career hit a wall in mid 90's to early 00's with multiple personal problems that affected his career also. He fought to gain back that recognition he once had he overly succeeded at breaking though the wall. Here are his best works to date and notice that all appear after his comeback except one.

8.  Weird Science (1985)

This is back when Robert was still a kid doing the bully roles he is oh so good at. He was the perfect bully as Ian in Weird Science to Michael Anthony Hall and IIan Mitchell-Smith. He was funny and cool and a d-bag at same time. Even though his role was small and before his break-through he was memorable. This is the film that opened up the world to Robert Downey Jr.

7. A Scanner Darkly (2006) 

Here is another film that Downey was a supporting cast member and stole the show in the end. His character James Barris is really great at showing how he can be manipulative of others and not show it easily, while still being funny and personable. He has a scene where he buys a bike and that one scene is maybe the most memorable and funniest. If your a fan of Downey doing his whole rants and talking fast then this film is for you. 

6.  Sherlock Holmes (2009) 

Sherlock Holmes is Robert Downey Jr. plain and simple. This was not the Sherlock you have read for decades and always thought he was brilliant and without good humor or likability. This interpretation is brilliant with fantastic humor and he is lovable to all. How could Watson ever want to quit the team? The accent is dead on and Downey really does acting that isn't in his comfort zone. 

5. The Avengers (2012)

I know everyone is shocked that the 3rd highest grossing film of all-time and biggest nerd/geek movie ever is number 5 on the list. Here me out first on why this must be. Downey was a huge factor going into this film, even though he is a big part of it he isn't the biggest shining one. Bruce Banner stole the show and it was his time to shine. Tony had his moment a few years back. Stark was on his A-game the entire film and proved he was just as big a leader as Captain America. This is still the same Stark we saw in first Iron man (just a little more grown up) but still noteworthy to list in top 5 and for sure the top best of the year. 

You must see what the Top 4 Robert Downey, Jr. films are to be satisfied with the list

Comic Con: First Look at Iron Man 3 Armor!!

Comic-Con has been in full swing for a few days now and so much information and announcements are bound to happen each day that it's been a little hard to keep up. Especially when my internet is out most of time during the worst week of all time! So I will try to get as many post in as possible and do a recap of day's biggest announcements. Bare with me on this endeavor. 

The Marvel Booth has the yearly display of the Iron Man Armor and today they surprised us with a new display of armor from Iron Man 3! The armor is a different look than what we are used too with changing the red with slight bit of gold into a mostly gold with some red in it. I can't say I'm the biggest fan of it, but it's not horrible. Check it out for yourself.

Awesome Splatter Paint Superheros

These Splatter paintings just are completely awesome. When I saw the Batman and Wonder Woman ones I had a nerdgasm. Just kidding…only when I saw the Batman one..so anyways.. This ingenious artist name Arian Noveir has blessed us nerds with some awesome (digital) splatter paintings of just about all the most iconic superheros *minus mighty mouse* and they are fantastic. I want to buy a print of a few myself.

So here are the prints. You can buy them including iPhone covers, laptop covers, shirts, etc…. at Noveir's site society6.com

Here are Superman and Batman

The rest are after the jump. And I recommend checking them out because they include Spider-Man, Hulk, Thor, Iron Man, Wonder Woman, and Hellboy. They are pretty amazing.

New Cool Avengers Banners

A new banner poster (or just individual posters but together to make a banner) of the main avengers has made its way online. The banner is nothing really new but the Hulk one looks pretty intriguing. Also, I just love how Iron Man has no helmet on while old Capt still has his full mask on, and where is Hawkeye or Black Widow in that banner. Oh wait, another banner has made it's way online a little bit later having the rest of the team (with main villain Loki thrown in) in their very own makeshift banner of posters. Hawkeye looks pretty boss (ya i said boss).

Here is the Banner featuring the main Avengers (Captain America, Hulk, Iron Man, Thor)

Here is the "the other guys" plus Hawkeye. He is the only one that should be with the main cast. (Nick Fury, Loki, Hawkeye, Black Widow)

The Avengers Trailer!!

Finally we have been blessed with the long-waited for trailer for the upcoming epic nerdgasm film The Avengers. The trailer actually shows more footage then I thought Joss Whedon would allow knowing his vow to secretcy almost on par with J.J. Abrams. The footage looks really amazing and it gives everyone screen time accept I would like to see more of Hawkeye and Hulk. Also, I'm loving Stark's humor, it's fantastic as always.

Summer 2012 will be blockbuster crazy with The Dark Knight Rises, The Amazing Spider-Man, and The  Avengers.

New Pics from The Avengers

I know i've missed so much of The Avengers coverage over the last couple of months. I am sorry again. So I'll start fresh with some awesome photos that were featured in EW and other sites last week with 2 brand new ones that popped up online.

The first (new) photos feature a epic scene with Captain America (Chris Evans) and Thor (Chris Hemsworth) looking up at what I assume to be the enemy. The second new image is of director Joss Whedon talking to Black Widow (Scarlett Johansson) with a guy posing like fonzie in the background.

Other photos are awesome and are worth looking at after the jump
