John Favreau, Robert Downey Jr. and Gweneth Paltrow are back for the follow-up to Marvel’s incredible Ironman and joining them are Don Cheadle, Sam Rockwell, Mickey Rourke and Scarlett Johansson to bring Tony Stark face-to-face with at least one more iron man of his own design: War Machine! Plus, his industrial nemesis Justin Hammer, S.H.I.E.L.D. Leader Nick Fury, the composite villain of Whiplash and Crimson Dynamo PLUS his seducer and betrayer from Ultimates, Black Widow. It’s anybody’s guess where this sequel will be going, but with a fanboy like Favreau in the driver’s seat, we just KNOW it’s going to be a ride we’re gonna love!

Unfortunately, The Losers, which was adapted from the Vertigo comic by the same name, definitely lost something in translation from the incredible source material it was based on. Despite an amazing cast of Uhura, The Comedian, Human Torch and a Lost Boy, an espionage movie based on a comic wasn’t enough to bring out genre supporters and it suffered a crushing defeat at the box office. Probably based on ads that make the movie out to be the A-Team that you’ve never heard of. Which, is actually an honest depiction of the film, which lets fans of the comic down, as well as audiences expecting anything more than a typical action flick. Having said that, we’ll be damned if Chris Evans isn’t CRAZY amusing, as usual!

The good news is, we’ve got an AWESOME behind-the-scenes Ironman 2 Preview coming your way this weekend!

We couldn’t have been more blown away by Kick-Ass. A top-notch story, great performances (especially Chloe Moretz as Hit-Girl), incredible humour and a surprisingly meaty film-going experience were disguised as a goofy superhero comedy by Lionsgate’s one-dimensional advertizing campaign. If you haven’t seen Kick-Ass, and you can take some gruesome violence and potty-mouthed humour, you owe yourself a night out at the movies to let Matthew Vaughn and Mark Millar Kick your Ass!

Did Bruce Willis and Jonathan Mostow do justice to the critically acclaimed five-part comic written by Robert Venditti? You already know from the trailers that the stakes have gone up from the comic plot: now the operators die as well when the surrogates are fried. But did that ruin the entire motivation of “Steeplejack”? Or does this change in the plot give a whole new and higher message to Surrogates? Check out our review, it’s Spoiler-free at first and then quite Spoileriffic as we examine Surrogates as a standalone film, and then as an adaptation.

To say that Wolverine has multiple endings isn’t exactly correct, but it does have multiple post-credit bonus scenes. Much like the post-credit Nick Fury scene in Iron Man, or the Tony Stark scene in Incredible Hulk, X-Men Origins: Wolverine gives you a reason to sit through the credits… and it’s hard to know which one you’ll be getting since Gavin Hood has put at least two different versions out in theatres, that we know of. We’ve seen two different endings, one that’s Deadpool-centric and once that’s Japan-based, but it won’t take long to get to the bottom of how many there are, and to see them all!

With interviews with Hugh Jackman, Liev Schreiber, Ryan Reynolds, Daniel Henney and director Gavin Hood, the advanced preview clips we’ve got for you from Wolverine are high octane, funny, and classic Wolverine; just the thing to make Matt want to grow a mean set of mutton chops year round!

It’s been three movies of watching Logan share the screen with other mutants while we pretended he wasn’t the main character… and now we don’t have to pretend anymore. X-Men Origins: Wolverine centres on everyone’s favourite Candian Ball of Berserker Rage, and makes no apologies for it. With Hugh Jackman producing the film as well as starring, it looks like the man who might just know Logan best is shouldering a lot of the responsibility in bringing us his origin story well.

Thanks to an industry contact who has to remain nameless, we’ve managed to get our hands on a copy of the much publicized Wolverine Workprint… and boy do we have some things to say about it! Some good, some not so good, but this version is by no means the final film we’ll be seeing in theatres in May. It, in fact, is the version that lead to Fox commissioning millions of dollars in re-shoots and changes. Will that make it better? Worse? There’s no way to know yet, but this will give us some rare insight to the process of making a blockbuster!

More positive than we were expecting with an ending that just might take Alan Moore to school. And we’re saying ALL that without seeing all the extra DVD-released scenes that have been shot with Hollis Mason, Sally Jupiter– oh yeah and the Black Freighter! So you can bet this will be the first of at least two reviews we’ll be doing of Watchmen. Once that DVD comes out, we’ll be getting an even more accurate, comprehensive and faithful adaptation.
