Movie Review: ‘Brightburn’ Starring Elizabeth Banks, David Denman, Jackson A. Dunn

Posted: May 25, 2019 at 11:20 pm   /   Film, Movie Reviews, Reviews

What if Superman were evil? What if there was no hero to stop the villain? Sounds like a dark thought to me. Well, that’s exactly what Brightburn – the new film from writers Brian and Mark Gunn – is all about. If the Gunn name makes you think of James, don’t worry – he’s the […]

First Look: CW’s “Arrow”

Posted: March 20, 2012 at 4:40 pm   /   Local, Television

I am not all that familiar with the character Oliver Queen/ Green Arrow.  I have seen the DC animated short that is awesome, and I have seen him in a few “Justice League” episodes.  But that’s all I have seen.  I was slightly surprised when I first heard that CW was shooting a pilot for […]

Warner Brothers and DC Still Pushing On With ‘Green Lantern’ Sequel

Posted: June 26, 2011 at 11:33 pm   /   Film, Local, Movie News

I finally saw GREEN LANTERN a couple of days ago.  The nice thing was that I was sufficiently warned.  I read all the negative reviews.  All of the initial excitement for the film had totally went away before sitting down in the theater.  Films are always better with zero expectations.  I have certainly seen worse […]

Movie Review: “Green Lantern” Starring Ryan Reynolds, Blake Lively (Gossip Girl)

Posted: June 17, 2011 at 8:26 am   /   Featured, Local, Movie Reviews

I have to admit that growing up, Green Lantern was not my favorite superhero. I tend to lean more towards the Marvel universe, with Batman almost evening things out on the DC side. So I wasn’t quite sure of what to expect of a “Green Lantern” movie starring Ryan Reynolds and Blake Lively. But I […]

NEW IMAGES FROM GREEN LANTERN

Posted: April 20, 2011 at 9:41 pm   /   Film, Local, Movie News

I had very high hopes for GREEN LANTERN.  I like Martin Campbell as a director.  Ryan Reynolds can portray a funny, action hero really well.  Blake Lively is easy on the eyes.  Mark Strong as Sinestro is perfect.  But then the trailer came out, and I have been very apprehensive since.  Yeah, the newer footage […]

THOR AND CAPTAIN AMERICA GET CONFIRMED SEQUELS

Posted: April 19, 2011 at 7:48 pm   /   Film, Local, Movie News

Is it just me or are superhero films counting their eggs before they hatch?  I thought it was ridiculous that the studio would green light a GREEN LANTERN sequel before it was even close to hitting theaters, but evedentally that is becoming the norm seeing that THOR and CAPTAIN AMERICA are both getting solo sequels. […]

TV Gets A New Wonder Woman In Adrianne Palicki

Posted: February 17, 2011 at 10:06 am   /   Local, Television

I am all for bringing superhero projects to television.  I would much rather watch a weeklyseries that puts our title characters in new adventures, facing new villains, and delving deeper into their characters.  That is one of the reasons I am still watching The Cape.  It’s not a great show, but I think it’s fun […]

Wonder Woman TV Series Will Happen Eventually

Posted: January 14, 2011 at 2:26 pm   /   Local, Television

David E. Kelley has been very successful in the television community.  Doogie Howser, M.D., Ally McBeal, and Boston Public are just a few of the television successes that he has created.  So it seems odd to me that every major studio would pass on his pitch for a new show.  It seems even more odd […]
