It’s hard to not get excited for the newest incarnation of Spider-Man swinging into theaters this summer. It has been a long road to the Marvel Cinematic Universe for the wall-crawler, despite the fact that he and Sony have been in the blockbuster business since 2002. Now that Marvel Studios and Sony Pictures have shook […]

It has proven to be close to impossible to predict Warner Bros’ future moves when it comes to their growing DC Extended Universe. After announcing an ambitious slate of ten films in 2014, the studio has seemingly decided to change course with their movies in development recently.  While movies like Wonder Woman and Aquaman seem to be coming along […]

Fresh off of the news that Matt Reeves has signed on the dotted line to become the next Warner Bros director to helm The Batman, WB is at it again.

At one time The Batman was seen as the saving grace of the DC cinematic universe.

It seemed almost too good to be true… and […]

DC Films has been making headlines recently for a lot of the wrong reasons.

While the X-Men cinematic universe has been around for over fifteen years, in some ways it’s just finding its stride.
