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.

First Captain America: The Winter Soldier Trailer is Pretty Epic!

Finally the trailer for Captain America: The Winter Solider is online and its pretty epic! I wasn't really expecting the step-up from Cap but I was proven wrong. Check out the trailer below to see Captain A in kick ass mode.

 Captain America: The Winter Soldier will pick-up where Marvel's The Avengers left off, as Steve Rogers struggles to embrace his role in the modern world and teams up with Natasha Romanoff, aka Black Widow, to battle a powerful yet shadowy enemy in present-day Washington, D.C.

Captain America: The Winter Soldier hits theaters on April 4th, 2014

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 

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 assemble in theaters on May 4, 2012

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.

Black Widow Solo film Happening

Marvel Studios head Kevin Feige has finally confirmed that they are currently in discussions to have a solo film based on their heroine Black Widow. The Russian spy character was portrayed by the beautiful Scarlett Johansson in Iron Man 2 and will be featured in the mega-film The Avengers in 2012.

Feige stated "We've already started discussions with Scarlett about the idea of a solo movie and have begun putting together concepts, but 'The Avengers' comes first."

So look forward to see a Black Widow solo film sometime after 2012.
