Originality RIP

OK, the headline may seem a little over the top, and yes, we have heard this argument many, many times. Unfortunately, however, the necessary people are not listening.

Video of the Day: How Lou Ferrigno Made it into The Avengers

Lou Ferrigno The Incredible Hulk

The work done by the Soundworks Collection to illuminate the architecture of the sound of the modern blockbuster is always something special, even when I have no interest in the film (Transformers: Arse of the Moon is a recent example) I’ll always make time to watch the short videos Michael Coleman and his team produce.

Name-Change: Thor Might Just Be The Mightiest Avenger

Thor Action Figure

Mere days after Mattel teased a hitherto unseen character in Martin Campbell’s Green Lantern movie, another toy manufacturer - this time Hasbro – has brought into question the official name of Marvel’s upcoming Thor movie. Glimpsed at New York Comic-Con (courtesy of Coming Soon), the action-figure’s packaging advertises Thor: The Mightiest Avenger rather than just Thor. While [...]

On paper, Marvel’s “wedding cake” plan seems like a masterstroke. You own a film studio recently bought out by the giant Disney, with access to about 5000 superheroes.
