Marvel Considering Resurrecting The Original Avengers

Marvel Considering Resurrecting The Original Avengers

, , , 3

Variety published a pretty damaging report today on closed-door discussions at Disney, where the faltering sales and interest of the MCU is starting to concern them. Fan reaction and box office sales just haven’t been the same since after Endgame, and they’re starting to regret putting all their eggs in the superhero basket. Apparently they’re starting to feel desperate enough to consider making the next Avengers film about the original Avengers, instead of the new team that would rise from the critically panned Multiverse Saga. The only problem with that is, they killed off several of them already. They could resurrect Black Widow and Iron Man though comic book weirdness, sure, but making death cheap and easily reversible in the comics has had a damaging effect, and spreading that to the movies would be a mistake. The report also states that, contrary to what it seems like, Disney IS, or WAS concerned with all the bad press surrounding actor Jonathan Majors, who plays Kang the Conqueror — unavoidably the centerpiece

New Court Case Opens The Door For Lawsuits Over “Deceptive Trailers”

New Court Case Opens The Door For Lawsuits Over “Deceptive Trailers”

, , , 12

For as far back as I’m aware of, Hollywood has always had a problem with putting things in their movie trailers that don’t show up in the finished product. But that could change — MAYBE — if a new court ruling holds any legal weight. U.S. District Judge Stephen Wilson ruled on Tuesday that two fans of actress Ana de Armos, who rented the movie Yesterday on the false promise she was in the Beatles-centric film, were intentionally misled by Universal Studios due to their trailer. Armos appears in it, but she was ultimately cut out of the final film due to test audiences not liking her character. Universal has been ordered to refund Conor Woulfe and Peter Michael Rosza the $3.99 each they paid to rent Yesterday — just kidding, the actual amount they want is $5 million. “At least,” they say. No one expected this case to result in a win. There is actually a valid, understandable reason why most trailers have scenes that aren’t in the movies

Deadpool 3, Blade And Other Marvel Movies Hit With Delays

Deadpool 3, Blade And Other Marvel Movies Hit With Delays

It’s not always a good idea to announce a release schedule that stretches out for years. The more you promise, the harder it is to commit, and you have no real way of knowing the future. It was only a few months ago that Disney unloaded a massive Marvel Movie release plan that stretched through much of the coming decade, and now for unexplained reasons they’re revising those plans. Most of these movies weren’t due out in a while, but that “while” is now further back. The first is Blade, which moves from a planned November 3, 2023 release date to September 6, 2024 (almost a full year, yikes). Deadpool 3 had the September 6 slot, but now the Merc will return two months later on November 8, 2024. And THAT day was meant to be the premiere of Disney’s take on the Fantastic Four, but now that won’t happen until Valentine’s Day of 2025…which pushes an unannounced Marvel movie meant for Feb. 14 to November 7, 2025. That day

Hawkeye Series In Development For Disney+

Hawkeye Series In Development For Disney+

Who has probably been least served out of all the Avengers? Who’s gotten the least amount of screentime and a complete lack of attention? That would be Clint Barton, AKA Hawkeye, the neglected child in Marvel’s super-family of Earth’s greatest heroes. Clint survived the Snap last summer but he’s still the Avenger people care least about. Maybe they just need to get to know him. Hawkeye is getting his own series, Marvel announced today, and it’s destined for the new Disney+ streaming service they’re launching soon. The show (which has no revealed title but we’re guessing “Hawkeye”) will take place after the events of Avengers Endgame. From the trailers we know Clint deals with his grief by abandoning his former getup to become a more angsty superhero called Ronin. Depending on how Endgame goes, this could still be the case after the credits roll…so would Hawkeye not technically be in “Hawkeye”? Actually, sharp-eyed viewers have spotted a shot in the trailers of Clint helping a young girl aim a bow.

Avengers Endgame: The End Trailer

Avengers Endgame: The End Trailer

Did you all see Captain Marvel this weekend? Wouldn’t it have been neat to get a new Avengers 4 trailer before it? For whatever reason, the latest preview of Avengers Endgame did not show up there. Instead it appeared on YouTube six days later. But if you did see Captain Marvel, you also know how overpowered Carol Danvers is. No cinematic Marvel superhero has been able to [SPOILER REDACTED] with her bare hands before. The number of Avengers may have thinned a bit, but CM has the strength of ten Groots, plus two. She appears at the end here, and Thor seems pleased. Given that we have a little over a month before Avengers Endgame actually hits theaters, this could very well be the final trailer, and if so, Marvel is REALLY keeping the events a secret. Notice how half of this trailer is composed of shots from previous movies, run through a grainy black-and-white filter. What do we really know about Avengers Endgame based on all the previews we’ve

Avengers 4 Is Called Endgame — First Trailer

For the last few months, Disney and Marvel Studios have kept the subtitle of Avengers 4 a tight secret. It was assumed that to know this subtitle would reveal massive spoilers for the movie’s plot. As of today, we know the full name…..Avengers: Endgame. It would have spoiled nothing, even if it was revealed prior to Avengers 3. Marvel, you worry too much. Ironically, the trailer confirms Hawkeye will play a large role in the movie. After being completely absent from Infinity War, he happens to survive the Snap (the official in-universe term is “The Decimation,” by the way). Then again, so do all seven of the original Avengers, so he’s not THAT special now. We don’t know where Hawkeye’s family is, but given the look on his face, we fear the worst for Linda Cardellini. Briefly, you can see a shot of Hawkeye dressed in black wielding a katana on a neon-tinted urban street. This most likely means he’s dealing with his grief by changing his superhero persona into

Marvel Studios 20th Anniversary Film Festival Starts August 30

Marvel Studios 20th Anniversary Film Festival Starts August 30

, , , , , 0

There are now 20 Marvel Cinematic Universe movies in existence, which means it’s time to screen all of them in one giant festival. And we mean “giant” in both senses of the word — this festival is exclusive to IMAX theaters. Three of the movies in the list below, Iron Man, The Incredible Hulk and Captain America: The First Avenger, were not originally released in the IMAX format. Now they will be! Fortunately for human biology, Disney does not plan to screen every single one of these in one sitting. That’s why it’s a “festival” — the marathon has been broken up into four movies per day, which is still a lot considering none of them run below two hours. Fortunately this is NOT a ticket you have to buy in bulk — they’l be sold individually. Pick your favorites from this schedule and see ’em on the REALLY big screen. August 30: Iron Man, TheIncredible Hulk, Iron Man 2, Thor August 31: Captain America: The First Avenger, The Avengers,

Infinity War Says That A “High Cost” Will Come To Undo The Ending

Infinity War Says That A “High Cost” Will Come To Undo The Ending

, , 1

If you haven’t seen Avengers: Infinity War yet, and you haven’t seen spoilers as to what happened, you really should look away now, you’ve been warned. At the end of the film, Thanos, who had all the Infinity Stones and the Infinity Gauntlet, snapped his fingers and wiped out half the universe. This included 11 major characters who were alive by the end of the film, leaving the “major character” death count at 15. However, as I noted in my review of Infinity War, while the move was bold, we as fans know that a majority of these deaths have to be undone, especially since some of these characters are going to have sequels. In an interview with Variety, the directors of Infinity War, The Russo Bros basically admitted this to be true, but, also admitted that such things must come at a cost: “I will say this: There is a real commitment on our end to the stakes,” Anthony Russo said. “Yes, this is a fantasy world, and yes,

Avengers: Infinity War Is Now The Biggest Movie Opening Of All Time

Avengers: Infinity War Is Now The Biggest Movie Opening Of All Time

, , 0

While somewhat expected, and predicted, Avengers: Infinity War has not only soared to the top of the box office, it has become the highest-grossing movie opening of all time. To be clear, this was no small feat. The previous record hold for the domestic box office was Star Wars: The Force Awakens, which grossed $248 million worldwide. Infinity War grossed $250 million, which is absolutely incredible from start to finish. Now, on the worldwide scale, the previous record holder was The Fate Of The Furious, which got around $541 worldwide upon its release. Well, Avengers: Infinity War got $380 from the international market, meaning, that the film has grossed in one weekend, $630 million dollars. This is a huge achievement for both Disney and Marvel Studios, especially coming off the success of Black Panther (which is still in the Top Ten of the box office for the record). And this proves that long build-ups like this can be fruitful even 10 years after they were started. The only real question now is

10 years, 18 films, and billions of dollars (both spent and made) have all been leading to this. Infinity War. There was a lot that had to be done in order to make this film work, and despite all the hype, it still had to deliver. So, did it? In my opinion, it did, however, it was not a perfect film, and there are some flaws that hold it back from being a masterpiece. Allow me to explain in this Avengers: Infinity War review. WARNING: There will be spoilers in this review. You have been warned. Let’s get right to the heart of the matter, and no, I don’t mean the Avengers or the Guardians of the Galaxy. This film has to live or die on the back of Thanos. The Marvel Cinematic Universe hasn’t always had the best luck with villains. For every Loki or Kilmonger we get, we got a Malekith, a Yellowjacket, or a “Colonel” Zemo (still mad about that one for the record). Thankfully for EVERYONE…Thanos isn’t

In the internet-fueled world we live in now, there is nothing worse than having a major thing spoiled for you. NOTHING! After all, you want to see a film, a TV show, a video game, or even a book (comics or otherwise) and not be burdened by the fact that a major twist has already been spoiled for you. Well, Marvel is known for having things spoiled ahead of time, whether by leaks or by people with loose lips. Yet, with the upcoming Avengers: Infinity War, they’re working very hard to prevent that. We’ve already seen a “memo” given to fans by the directors of Infinity War, the Russo Brothers, begging fans to not spoil anything for those who haven’t seen the film yet. But, on the off chance that people STILL don’t get the message, Marvel has released a special “PSA” with the stars of Infinity War to declare the message, “Say No To Spoilers”. And having lots of subtle messaging about how the stars are keeping their mouths shut,
