You’ve gotta appreciate a comic book movie where the filmmakers don’t suck all of the fun out of the hero being able to fly, shoot lasers and have super strength. As one comic book movie villain famously said recently “Why so serious?”
“Iron Man 2” happily embraces the playfulness of comic books and brings it to the big screen in a tremendously entertaining sequel that’s clearly set itself up as the summer blockbuster to beat. More

Chris Evans as back as the patriotic shield-slinger teaming with Black Widow (Scarlett Johansson) and S.H.I.E.L.D. to take on the notorious super spy The Winter Soldier.
Here’s a first look at Captain America on some down time at S.H.I.E.L.D. headquarters.

Rise of the Guardians – This was a film that deserved a lot more love last year and hopefully it finds a well-deserved audience on the home video market. Hugh Jackman, Alec Baldwin, Chris Pine, Isla Fisher and Jude Law lend their voices to holiday/weather icons like Santa Claus, the Easter Bunny, the Tooth Fairy and Jack Frost on an adventure to stop the world from plunging into darkness conceived by Pitch Black.

For your listening pleasure.
Here’s all the Oscar nominees for “Best Original Song.” They’re all exceptional — “Before My Time” by J. Ralph featuring Scarlett Johansson is a nice surprise — but my favorite remains Adele’s “Skyfall.” Give them a listen and let me know your choice about who should win. More

Sideshow Collectibles wisely became a major player with Marvel film properties just as they started to get really popular and now are reaping the benefits with increased interest from a new group of fans lured into the property on the strength of films like “Iron Man,” “Thor,” “Captain America: The First Avenger” and of course, “Marvel’s The Avengers.”
I’m loving what Sideshow has done with the Marvel line in general and this offering – from their premium format line – hardly breaks the streak. This is a bit of a throwback figure from them with a Black Widow from “Iron Man 2″ so right away you’ll notice the longer hair and the generic blue SHIELD agent attire. Course with the figure’s pose that may not actually have been the first thing people noticed, huh? The resemblance to Scarlett Johansson is kinda scary, no?

Drama, Movie Reviews Christian Bale, Christopher Nolan, Hugh Jackman, Marvel's The Avengers, Michael Caine, Scarlett Johansson, The Dark Knight Rises, The Prestige 2 Comments
I’d planned to look back at “Inception,” but finding that review is proving to be a super pain. Anyway, here’s another in a continuing line of excellent films by “The Dark Knight Rises” Director Christopher Nolan starring some of his frequent collaborators — Christian Bale and Michael Caine — and an actor I’d love to see him reunite with in the future in Hugh Jackman.

Christopher Nolan sets up a shot.
It’s no illusion. ‘‘The Prestige” is the best film of 2006 and represents storytelling at its finest. More
