New X-Men: Days of Future Past Trailer + Poster

20th Century Fox is stepping up the marketing and showing off just how awesomely dark and action packed X-Men: Days of Future Past is going to be. They released a new darker trailer for it along with a well....let's put it as ill-advised layered poster. *Prof. X is farting a trail of fire by the looks of it*.

Wolverine has his consciousness sent back to 1973 to convince and help young Professor X (James McAvoy) and Magneto (Michael Fassbender), and the rest of the First Class team stop Bolivar Trask (Peter Dinklage) from starting the rise of the Sentinels, giant cool robots programmed to kill all mutants.

Days of Future Past will have the "big comic-book tentpole film of the summer" in it's sights when it hits theaters on May 23rd.

Bryan Singer Announces X-Men: Apocalypse for 2016

Bryan Singer is king of X-Men movies and with good reason. He has started the series off with great characters and a realism factor that hasn't been seen with Superhero movies. So to further the great stuff he does with the franchise, he announced that a new X-Men film will be released in 2016 via twitter. 

He said on twitter "X-Men: Apocalypse” would arrive in 2016." That raises a lot more questions than just when it will be released in 2016!

Fox came back later and gave more info on the project. When I say a more info, I mean just release date... Memorial Day weekend on May 27, 2016. That's not too far away!

The questions that is raises is: Is it based on a crazy epic 90s storyline? The storyline revolved around the first mutant, Apocalypse, who wanted to become the conquerer of the world and more. Now things start to make more sense when you take in consideration that this storyline is based around time travel and an alternate reality.

In this reality Professor X is murdered before he could form the X-Men. So in a turn of events, Mageneto makes a group of mutants and leads them through a post apocalyptic America. Things get pretty cray cray up in there. (Yes, I just said that in a sentence).

Mark Millar Says X-Men and Fantastic Four will Share Same Universe

Shared Universes have been on the rise with superhero films. Marvel got it right and now DC wants in with Batman Vs. Superman. Well another wants into the trend. 20th Century Fox owns the rights to Marvel properties including The Fantastic Four and X-Men. 20th Century's Marvel Consultant Mark Millar seems to think a crossover will happen very soon.

In a recent interview with SFX, he stated when asked if they will be crossing over at any point

“Without question I think you have to see some of these guys showing up in each other’s movies. I think the most exciting thing in superhero movies, until The Avengers came along, was when Nick Fury showed up in Iron Man. Even though it was a guy with an eye patch it was really cool – and I expect we will see more of that.”

Now honestly do they need to crossover? Not for sometime in they to be at all. X-Men has a vast cast of characters already and it grows with each film. Where does The Thing fit in? I guess I should leave that up to Mark Millar. He's good with those kinds of things. 

Still very exciting to maybe one day see two great teams cross paths. Lets still hope for a big meeting between all of them and Marvel properties. 

Quicksilver Cast in X-Men: Days of Future Past! (Will Cause Problems for Avengers 2?)

Marvel Studios and 20th Century Fox are going to cause problems in the Marvel Universe. 

Well, before I get into the big legal problems that are sure to arise. Bryan Singer announced through twitter that actor Evan Peters (Kick Ass, American Horror Story) has been cast as Quicksilver in X-Men: Days of Future Past. Now commence how this causes a lot of problems. 

Where to begin? Hmmm. Lets start with Marvel Studios announced that in the current script for The Avengers 2, Quicksilver and Scarlet Witch were going to be joining the cast. Thats cool and all, but they problems were they are Magneto's kids and thats were it gets legal fuzzy. 

20th Century Fox owns the rights to X-Men and it's catalog of mutants. That includes Scarlet Witch (Wanda Maximoff) and Quicksilver (Pietro Maximoff) kids to non other than Magneto himself. So Marvel Studios, owned by Disney, have their legal hands full of how to get this scenario to work. Well, reports are saying Marvel could use the two characters as along as they don't say who they are kids of or they are "mutants". Yes Fox has the rights to "mutants". 

Does Marvel and Fox have an agreement to use the characters 2 separate films? Or did Fox just pull this out of nowhere to really stick it Marvel about stealing two of their characters? You don't see Captain America aka Steve Rodgers showing up in The Wolverine without the Stars and Stripes. 

Apparently more reports are coming in saying that Marvel can indeed use the characters, but not the mutant names, but can use, Piertro and Wanda, their real names. That makes sense but sucks for fanboys seeing these characters in separate universes a year apart. They could somehow down the road merge the universes into a super marvel cinematic universe. 

HitFix reports "we're going to see is a legally-negotiated stand-off in which we'll get two totally different versions of one character. While (Fox and Marvel) may act like things are amicable in public, HitFix sources say otherwise." They add, "The way the arrangement works, Marvel Studios cannot refer to the character as a 'mutant,' and they can't mention Magneto at all. Likewise, Fox can't make any reference to The Avengers in their film.  That means they'll have to either explain his powers in a different way in The Avengers 2, or they'll just have to make no mention of his origin at all."

More info to come in due time when this all gets figured out

Top 10 Best Comic Book Cartoon TV Shows of All-Time

We all love our cartoons when we are young and even older and even older. The ones that tend to stick with us even after we get "too old" for Saturday morning cartoons are superhero themed ones. Particularly ones based off of comic books. So I have complied a list of what I consider the beset tv shows based off comic books. The range is big and a few are highly predictable, but they are all truly great for separate reasons.

The Batman (2004-2008)

The Batman is a series that I despised when I first saw it because 1. It wasn’t Batman The Animated Series 2. It wasn’t in the DC Animated Universe. After watching the first episode, I was instantly hooked! Who Knew? This show changed the way animated cartoons were done in the DC/WB area of animation and it brought to screen great villains and great redone legendary villains like The Penguin and The Joker and Heroes. They were just fun and the younger Bruce Wayne was great with adding Robin and Batgirl than doing Justice League in final season. Bringing back some DC Animated Universe (DCAU) Favs to voice their characters again. Gave me a soft spot for this series. 

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles aka TMNT (2003-2009)

Don’t get me wrong, I love the original 80s version for what it is..but...the series in TMNT fan eyes is lackluster and too childish. Than came the 2003 series and it was way different and more adult. Still not as adult as comic, but it gave us funny one-liners and great action with a cool shredder. The series had cool seasons and even went into the future. It just covered so much of the turtles world.The best part was the series finale/tv film that combined all the different series into one great tv movie. TMNT does have a new series that is growing on me nicely, it gets the humor spot on. 

Spider-Man: The Animated Series (1994-1998)

Here is the longest running series based on Spider-Man and 2nd longest Marvel series period. Fox Kids had the best superhero programming in the 90s with this, X-Men, Batman, and others. I was glued to that channel. Spider-Man has had more tv series since way back in the 70s, but this 90s modern take on him was the absolute best. It gave us Peter Parker during his college years working at the Daily Bugle. The animation was superb and the dialogue was actually really great with the inner-monologue of Spider-Man himself, just like the comic books. We got to see the classic spidey villains like Kingpin, Green Goblin, Lizard, Doc Ock, and Venom. Although, my favorite part was we got to see The Punisher make his appreance a few times along with Blade, Doc Strange and even Captain America. There was even a great crossover with X-Men. What else could you ask for in an amazing Spider-Man series. (see what I did there). 

Teen Titans (2003-2006)

The animation alone is drastically different then almost every other DC cartoon, and that is a great thing! The anime animation style was able to bring the emotion and humor out of the characters that made the show memorable. We finally got to see Robin and the team take main stage and Cyborg is just hilarious. Don’t think the show was all fun and games, it did get pretty serious in a lot episodes, with Ron Perlman as Slade. The characters were well thought out and presented perfect for the age group they were made for, but they did impress the older group with the humor. You have to love this show. 

Batman Beyond (1999-2001)

Batman in the future. Period. Also, takes place after Batman:TAS, which makes it even more awesome! Batman Beyond took the Timmverse into a big new direction with going into the future so far we actually get to see an old (very old) Bruce Wayne, still being voiced by Kevin Conroy. Bruce hangs up the cowl in the first episode and we meet the new Batman, Terry McGinnis. This new batman still has all the humor and will to do the job, but we get a brand new suit that is awesome (and capeless) and new gadgets. Bruce became an Alfred role, while Barbara Gordon is chief, and Robin is a tech guy. Pretty cool to see where they all ended up going.We also get some awesome new villains in Gotham and return of some old ones. This series was a Timmverse high that ended too soon in my opinion, it was even green-lit for a 4th season, but Justice League deterred that. I hope one day we see more of this world and it’s heroes/villains in animation or film. 

Do you have an idea what they top 5 shows will be? Well come on and see if you know what it is. 

Read Over 700 Marvel First Issues Now for Free!

UPDATE: The servers through Marvel's app and website to get the free issues seems to be down most of the day because all of us fans are stocking up on this pretty sweet promotion here, I'm assuming. So keep eyes peeled for when they come back. I just want my comics Marvel! (pretty smart to market this and not be able to give the people the product due to "issues" with server…sure Marvel *wink wink*)

Marvel announced that they will letting over 700 first issues ranging from the beginnings all the way to Marvel Now books, which are very recent. This is a pretty big marketing tool Marvel is taking and pretty smart one too. It will draw old readers back and draw new readers in to the dark side of geek world.


“This is the perfect way to show everyone how much we believe in our material by letting them try the first issues for free, because we’re sure once they start, they won’t stop,” says Marvel SVP – Sales, Digital & Print David Gabriel. “Week in and week out we ask fans to come check out our new releases—both in print and digitally—with the promise that we’ll bring them the best comics made by the best talent and managed by the best editorial team in the industry. Now, existing and news fans [alike] can discover the heroes they know and love and learn about new ones all at the same time.”


There is a great mix of recent comics—such as UNCANNY AVENGERS, ALL-NEW X-MEN, CIVIL WAR, AVENGERS VS. X-MEN—in here alongside classic #1’s—AMAZING SPIDER-MAN, FANTASTIC FOUR, CAPTAIN AMERICA COMICS—so I’m confident in saying that no matter the era or the character you’re going to be very happy.

Also, I know many of you can't read 700 comics within a day. Not everyone can be like Will Hunting (too old of joke?). So Marvel is allowing you to download them all and they will remain on your account that you create through their website at comicstore.marvel.com or through their mobile app to read on your own slow paced time.

Bryan Singer Tweets Pic of X-Men: Days of Future Past Wheelchairs

Bryan Singer is one of few directors that is cool in the sense he keeps the fans updated on the movie he is currently filming. So, with a huge film like X-Men: Days of Future Past, we are bound to see some cool tweets and even better…pics from set! So this little behind the scenes look is pretty awesome. We get to see the wheelchairs used by the Professor X's from both time periods. The cool slick one on the left is the older Charles Xavier (Patrick Stewart) chair, while the still cool, yet, retro one on right is the 70's Xavier (James McAvoy). 

X-Men: Days of Future Past hits theaters on July 18, 2014

First Official Pic of Hugh Jackman in The Wolverine!!

Hugh Jackman is a beast to say the least. The Wolverine has been in production for a little bit of time for now, but we are now getting our first official look at Hugh in his Wolverine glory. The hair is a little short, but we can work with that because just look at his physique! I'm pretty sure nobody wan't to mess with a guy that cut with big pointy claws.

The image is pretty cool to get a hint of Japanese atmosphere with background and color. This film is looked as a stand-alone film and not a sequel to X-Men Origins: Wolverine (because it sucked so bad, I mean nice animated claws that makes Terminator 2 look like state of art *actually it does still I think* )

The Wolverine hitting theaters on July 26, 2013

Matthew Vaughn is returning for X-Men Sequel!!

After A very long debate whether we would end up getting a new director for the sequel to X-Men: First Class because Vaughn wasn't contracted for another film. All of the cast was, so be rest assured they will be back. Earlier it was announced that Vaughn has reached a deal with 20th Century Fox to return to directed the sequel with a script being written by Simon Kinberg (X-Men: First Class). So the original team is back even down to Bryan Singer producing again. I cannot wait to see what they have in store for the X-Men and who will they introduce.

New X-Men: First Class Posters

Some new poster have been released for X-Men: First Class and they show the same thing previous ones have, but they're not the best. They sell the concept of the movie being a prequel origins story, but its just a bad photoshopped head on a weird shadow figure of themselves.

X-Men: First Class will hit theaters on June 3rd

New X-Men: First Class Poster and Photos

Just hours after that not so stellar photo was released, they decided to release some new shots and a teaser poster. I like the recovery effort a lot. 

The three images show some interesting shots of the cast, Very hot or icy January Jones and a very awkward chess game. The released poster does seem to be paying homage to the original X-Men poster back in 1999. It is cool and cliched that they did that. 

X-Men: First Class fights into theaters on June 3, 2011

The rest of the awesome photos and Poster are after the jump. Check them out

Hi-Res X-Men: First Class Photos

I kept off on posting this photo because of rumors it was a fake, but a photo made its official debut online today and guess what? It's the same image. There were many doubts because of the off lighting, head to body ratio and January Jones basically naked.

The banner was released and then the higher-resolution photos came online. It doesn't look too much different. So, I guess I was fooled by some big shot Hollywood photoshop people into thinking it was fake. You guys got me. Honestly, it looks better in Hi-Res.

X-Men: First Class will get released on June 3, 2011

Here is the original small image

Here is the Hi-Res Pics

More news to come later and hopefully a better poster or even a trailer

First Look at January Jones As Emma Frost

INF Daily released some shots of January Jones as Emma Frost on the set of X-Men: First Class in Buckinghamshire, England.

She was seen walking around the set between filming, just taking photos of cast and the set. She has the "white Queen" theme going on and It's pretty hot. I love the huge russian hat. Anyway, she eventually put on a super long coat and walked talked to her body-double. You have to love two January Jones's more.

X-Men: First Class hits theaters on July June 3, 2011.

The shots are a little blurry, but you get the idea.

Win a Tour of the X-Men: First Class Set

CharityBuzz posted a new auction for a set visit on the new X-Men movie X-Men: First Class. Producer  Bryan Singer (X-Men 1& 2, Superman Returns) has donated the set tour to give a lucky fan a glimpse of how a X-Men film gets made. Also, the proceeds will go to Project Angel Food.

Some more details... Share the excitement of film making with a set visit of the next installment in the highly successful film series, X-Men to meet producer Bryan Singer. Although cast information has not been announced, the next X-Men film, X-Men:First Class, is sure to be an action packed classic. This once-in-a-lifetime experience will also give the winner a chance to meet some of the actors who may be on set that day. This set visit will take place in Fall 2010 in the United Kingdom.


Before Charles Xavier and Erik Lensherr took the names Professor X and Magneto, they were two young men discovering their powers for the first time. Before they were archenemies, they were closest of friends, working together, with other Mutants (some familiar, some new), to stop the greatest threat the world has ever known. In the process, a rift between them opened, which began the eternal war between Magneto's Brotherhood and Professor X's X-MEN. 


Terms: To be scheduled at a mutually agreed upon time and date. To take place this Fall (2010) in the United Kingdom. Travel and accommodations are not included. Cannot be resold or re-auctioned.


I probably wouldn't pay to go because I would still have to pay hundreds of dollars for travel and accommodations, but that shouldn't stop all of you die hard fans.

The bid is currently at $550 and the next bid will have to be $650. The auction in estimated to go for $5,000.

Robert Rodriguez Directing Deadpool?

There is some unconfirmed reports that 20 Century Fox has sent an offer to Robert Rodriguez (Sin City, El Mariachi Trilogy) to direct Deadpool the spinoff of X-Men Origins: Wolverine. This doesn't mean that he will be up to taking the job as director because he has a full plate of pics to get started on in the near future. He is attached to Sin City 2, The Jetsons, Barbarella, Madman, Red Sonja, Spy Kids and maybe more. The man basically just attaches himself to almost every movie in production for reasons unknown.

I will admit it would be awesome if he directed it because I know he would get away from the ignored character in Wolverine and go for the witty french assassin he is in the comics. Also, they will most likely keep Ryan Reynolds as Deadpool, which isn't bad.

Any Thoughts? Should Rodriguez direct it? Should Reynolds return?

Daily Movie News

Its Tuesday time for Daily Movie News

* Director D.J. Caruso (Eagle Eye, Disturbia) and Chris Pine (Star Trek) are targeted by Paramount Pictures to make "The Art of Making Money" next year. Pine would play Art Williams, the alias for a Chicago man who rose from petty thief to master counterfeiter. Based on the book by same title.

* J.J. Abrams' Company Bad Robot and Paramount will team up on a untitled movie by screenwriters Aline Brosh McKenna (The Devil Wears Prada) and Simon Kinberg (X-Men: The Last Stand). J.J. will not reveal the plot but said the pitch got them Salivating. So, it sounds like one to keep an eye on.

* Director Roland Emmerich (Indepedence Day, Stargate) has said he would like to make a sequel to ID4 with Will Smith. There is a script turned into FOX but FOX has it in limbo. Also, Roland said he would like to make Stargate into a trilogy as he had envisioned.

* Director Sam Raimi (Spider-Man 1,2,3) has said he likes The Lizard as a villian but hasn't said about him being in Spider-Man 4. He also said he isn't really familiar with the character Carnage. So it looks like The Lizard is the most likely villian for Spider-Man 4.

* Director Brian Singer (X-Men, Superman Returns) has said he wants to get back into the X-Men franchise. He has been talking with FOX about doing it.
