Do we need to know Marvel?




So Marvel I love you, you always do a good job with Superheroes. OK maybe your villains are a bit well meh, sorry but besides Loki who else stands out as a great villain? But everything else has been great. Well mostly everything. Can you do me a little favour though, can you start phase three before you announce phase four? 

I understand your announcing new movies for phase three, the addition of Ant-Man and The Wasp is great, even if it does sound like a weird 70's cop show. I'm also on board even if it means three marvel movies a year until 2019, even if it does mean that alongside DC and Sony movies I'm going to be living in my local cinema for the next few years. Even bringing Black Panther and Captain Marvel forward is great, more great superheroes to add to the never ending mix. 

But to announce three untitled movies for phase four before we even know what they are, is just too much. Wait until the last year of phase three for new information. Why are you trying to get us all excited about untitled projects? I don't need to be thinking about movies that I will probably be going to see in five years time. Can you imagine Marvel announcing phase three before phase two had even started? 

Is anyone starting to get fed up saying the word phase? Anyway Marvel, I feel like you're dictating my future movie going experiences. I know you haven't announced the phase four movies, or given any spoilers but please, stop announcing movie projects, at least give it a year. We'll all still go to see them, unless that is the superhero fatigue sets in. 

I'm getting fatigued just now thinking about it! Is it too earlier for phase four speculation? Are you excited? Which Marvel superhero would you like to see get its own movie? 

I'd like to see a Rogue movie, yes I know it's Sony but if they could pull a Quicksilver then they can pull a Rogue. She deserves it, and is my favourite ever superhero.

Agents of Shield - Purpose in the Machine

So yeah I just finished watching Agents of Shield episode two. I was going to leave it until tomorrow morning but I found myself wanting to write about it.  I really enjoyed this episode guys and I am going to tell you why. SPOILERS ARE COMING! Now let's talk about Ward (Brett Dalton), I love hydra Ward best. If Grant has an evil purpose he is better for it, he might not have the girl, but he has a team. Ward is going to cleanse Hydra of all its money lovers. He will form Hydra 2.0, only in it for the destruction. Now that's the Ward we can all get behind, he might be the bad guy, but he's our bad guy. So the episode starts in 18th century England inside a creepy mansion with men in powdered wigs and such. They are technically drawing straws but with stones, the white stone goes in the Portal. He will be missed but they throw out a hydra-esque quib about how they have to sacrifice to learn, wait no one actually comes back. Oh no Simmons! We cut back to present day a...

Game of Thrones - Who Else Could Return From The Dead?

Spoilers ahead for episode seven of this sixth season, The Broken Man.  Last week I was so relieved to finally see the Gravedigger Theory  confirmed, us book fans had an idea that we hadn't quite seen the last of that loveable Hound, Sandor Clegane (Rory McCann), and it was nice to see him appear lugging a tree. Now we are faced with wondering who else could potentially rise from the dead before this sixth season is over. Stannis the Mannis Stannis Baratheon (Stephen Dillane) was apparently killed by Brienne at the end of last season, but the shot cut away before we saw his head being chopped off. If watching the show or reading the books has taught us anything it is to not believe someone is dead until we actually see it happen with our own two eyes. The Hound was in a similar position, we all thought he would die from bleeding out in the middle of nowhere but he had help in the form of Brother Ray (Ian McShane), who had stumbled upon him and saved him from dea...

Daredevil Season 2 Trailer

SPOILERS, as always for those who haven't watched season one.  So everyone's favorite Blind(ish) Superhero is back in a new trailer. Matt Murdock (Charlie Cox) is feeling guilty, maybe for the death of Ben Urich (Vondie Curtis-Hall) last season, maybe for something completely different. Father Lantom (Peter McRobbie) tells Matt that guilt can be a good, although Karen (Deborah Ann Woll) and Foggy (Elden Henson) also look plenty guilty in this teaser trailer. We then see a bunch of clips including Claire Temple (Rosario Dawson) in her nurse scrubs, and Elektra (Elodie Yung) getting her mask on, all while hearing a voice over from Father Lantom who indicates that it may be because Matt's work as Daredevil is not yet finished. We then see Karen Page holding a Punisher skull on a x-ray and looking pretty freaked out by it. Then comes what I am most looking forward to, Frank Castle (Jon Bernthal) is here, in a hospital (watch out Claire) and looking pretty bad ass if I do...
