Fantastic Four Getting Eviscerated All Up In This Place!
Reviews are pouring in for the new Fantastic Four movie, and they’re not good. Looks like the film is probably as bad as we all assumed it would be. I haven’t seen it yet, and I’m not sure if I’ll have the time this weekend. But man, how disappointing.
Of course, let’s not forget how terrible the first Fantastic Four movies were!
Thanks, Screen Junkies, we all needed that reminder. And let us never forget that ‘Hemi’ line in the second one. Ugh.
Let’s hope this film is the final nail in the coffin for Fox’s Fantastic Four plans — although we all know it probably won’t be. Like they care at all about the sanctity of the franchise. They probably hate Marvel as much as Marvel hates them. I can see Fox holding on to the movie rights out of pure spite at this point. They did announce a sequel already, I highly doubt they’re going to cancel.
Ah well. Such is life.

The Deadpool Trailer Has Finally Arrived!
The first full trailer for the Deadpool movie debuted on Conan last night, and I’m only going to post the Red Band version, because this is the Internet!
I like it…or at least I think I like it. I want to like Deadpool, the character, but he’s attained a strange level of annoying to me in recent years. That’s evident in this trailer, as well as in his monthly comics. It also doesn’t help that I watched the leaked trailer from Comic-Con, so some of the jokes and gags were already spoiled. But the costume looks great, the action looks crazy, and I’m generally a fan of Ryan Reynolds.
I’m also really curious what regular, non-comics reading folks think of this trailer…What’d you henchies think? Yay? Nay? Sound off in them there comments!

Sorry for the Long Weekend, Here’s Everything Wrong with The Incredibles!
I love The Incredibles! It’s still my favorite Pixar movie. But Cinema Sins isn’t going to go easy on it!
Sorry about the long weekend! I was at the Boston Comic-Con, spreading the good word about my comic, Gamer Girl & Vixen. It was a nice trip, met some great people, and I love comics even more now! Good times all around!
Also, tune in later today for the first full trailer for the Deadpool movie!

This Takes Time, Dedication and a Probably a Bunch of Arts & Crafts!
Kudos to the CineFix people for the neat stuff they make, like this homemade Ant-Man trailer!
Sometimes I wish my job involved being awesome and zany on the Internet. This blog isn’t nearly zany enough sometimes! But man, just look at all the work that had to have gone into this thing. The costumes, the sets, the actors, the neat little details.Why aren’t my friends or co-workers more into zany arts & crafts?

My 6 Favorite Superhero Movie Costumes
Once upon a time, it was not cool to be a superhero movie. Nowadays, people are gushing about Spider-Man’s next cinematic costume at Marvel, and movie-makers are promising that the X-Men in their new Apocalypse film are going to wear comics-accurate costumes. But back in the day, superhero costumes were too dorky to wear! Do you all remember the original X-Men movie and the matching black leather? That’s what you needed to have to make a superhero movie before they were cool.
Thank God we don’t live in that sort of world anymore!
They were indeed dark days
I have long since given up being a stickler about comic-to-movie adaptations. I’m actually in favor of changes, cosmetic or otherwise, as long as it’s a good movie. I didn’t mind the all-leather X-Men costumes, or that weird homemade costume in the first Amazing Spider-Man, or even the original red leather Daredevil costume. But like everybody else, I’ve got my favorites!
Join me after the jump to see my six favorite superhero (or villain) costumes at the movies!
