Zoom/Flash or Flash/Zoom, theories are taking another (super-speed) step

(Try my latest! – The Flash Season 2 Episode 18: it get’s better and better, or faster and faster!) I am loving speculating as to the identity and origin of the Flash’s major season 2 adversary; Zoom. The most recent episode, episode S2E17, was brilliantly done. Basic plot: Barry wants to get faster and turns to one… Continue reading Zoom/Flash or Flash/Zoom, theories are taking another (super-speed) step

Captain America: Civil War – Baron Zemo must not be baron of character!

Aside from a brilliant Loki by Tom Hiddelestone, Marvel have failed to really provide audiences with memorable and believable villains; by this I mean they do not convince us that their cause is terrifying enough or that their will to achieve it is truly indomitable. To give examples, I felt very distant and therefore unfazed… Continue reading Captain America: Civil War – Baron Zemo must not be baron of character!

Reviews on Affleck’s performance as the Dark Knight have been largely positive and… Continue reading Here’s a Riddle…who should be Batman’s next Foe?

Batman V Superman: Dawn of Just…another slugfest – What I wanted instead…

Now first things first, I have not seen Batman V Superman: Dawn of Justice, I have not sampled leaked footage or read review containing spoilers and I fully intend on seeing this movie in the near, if not immediate, future. I have, however, read several highly critical reviews of the new DC epic and have… Continue reading Batman V Superman: Dawn of Just…another slugfest – What I wanted instead…

What Trajectory is the Flash heading? Not where I wanted…

(Try my latest – The Flash Season 2 Episode 18: it get’s better and better, or faster and faster!) Well…it had been coming…and even if it is The Flash, with the way season two’s storyline has been playing out, it should have been easy to see where it was all going. I recently summarised all the… Continue reading What Trajectory is the Flash heading? Not where I wanted…

Apocalypse: the X-Men world could be destroyed…not sure I want it saved

With all the hype surrounding Batman V Superman: Dawn of Justice and Captain America: Civil War you would be forgiven for forgetting that there is in fact a third major superhero team-up franchise about to release a major movie…I know I did. The build-up to the release of X-Men: Apocalypse is currently quite difficult to… Continue reading Apocalypse: the X-Men world could be destroyed…not sure I want it saved

Dawn of Justice v Civil War: this battle won’t be won on screen

Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice and Captain America: Civil War…what an incredible couple of months for superhero movies! I know I cannot wait for it, and even if you fall DC way or Marvel side you must be honest and say that you can’t wait to check out both of these giant match-ups in… Continue reading Dawn of Justice v Civil War: this battle won’t be won on screen

Kryptonite is not the only thing that makes Supergirl weak

Supergirl is problematic. The movie and television industry is crying out for female lead roles and the realm of female led movies/TV shows in the superhero genre is almost completely unexplored; making this show quite ground-breaking. However, I am not convinced as yet. I like the characters, I like the casting (generally), it has a… Continue reading Kryptonite is not the only thing that makes Supergirl weak

It’s not a question of who has the rights…it’s who can do it right

Now I know I have previously indicated the overwhelming abundance of superhero themed movies that have been, are being and are planned to be released in the previous and forthcoming decades; however, I have some desperate wants, needs and desires, especially from Marvel/Disney, for their future cinematic universe strategy. I have two major requests of… Continue reading It’s not a question of who has the rights…it’s who can do it right
