Retro Review: Alien

Well, it's Friday, time for another retro review. This time I'll be reviewing a cult classic, Ridley Scott's Alien. People love this movie now, but it's interesting because originally, people didn't know what to think of it. That being said, that makes it hard for me to be objective, but I'll try my very best to give you my opinion of Alien as a movie, and not as a fan favorite.

Retro Review: Terminator 2: Judgement Day

A huge success, there was no way that James Cameron was going to pass on creating a sequel to his darkand gritty sci-fi film, The Terminator. After the way 1984 changed cinema forever, it was time to take it to the next level. Now backed by Hollywood, and of course, by the same visionary that conceived the first film, T-2 brings about the next chapter in the Terminator story. He said he'd be back, and now, he is. Let's get started, shall we?

Retro Review: The Terminator

In 1984, James Cameron brought us the beginning of one of the most endearing cinema franchises of all time. Not many people know how low budget this movie was. It wasn't supposed to be a hit, but it was huge. Still one of the most infamous characters of all time, and still influencing Sci-Fi movies to this day. But... was it really that good? Is it really worth being declared one of the greatest Sci-Fi movies of all time? Maybe. Read on to see my opinion.

Review: Superman vs. The Elite

Right now, DC owns animated movies. Like, seriously, DC has put out some of the best animated films of all time, and every time I see a new one, I get reasonably excited. I was naturally excited about this one when I saw previews for it. But did it live up to the standard set by other DCAU films?

Retro Review: Superman Returns

Superman Returns. The man of steel spent twenty years away from the big screen, but was never really far away. Bryan Singer brings us a more emotional, and less campy movie, but still ties it to the first two, while ignoring the events of the third and fourth. Thank God it ignored the fourth. But it brings us an entirely new cast, and something completely new compared to the movies we all know and love. Just want to let you guys know that there IS a spoiler in here. I'll let you know when we get to it, but be careful while you read if you haven't seen the movie.

News: The Flash Coming Back to the Small Screen!

I honestly can't contain my excitement. Not only has DC announced that they're giving The Flash his own movie, he's also getting his own series on the CW. Am I in Heaven? Because I'm pretty sure this is what Heaven is like.

News: Quicksilver Might Be Cast. Still No Word On Scarlet Witch.

We've known for a while now that Joss Whedon is adding this brother-sister duo to the Avengers roster. I'm psyched, but I'm still concerned over the casting. Too soon to say how this'll turn out.

News: DC Announces Flash and Justice League Movie.

DC with a plan. I never thought I'd see the day. I've been saying for a long time that DC needs to stop, and
understand that they aren't going to get ahead of Marvel over night. They finally took a step back, and made a plan. And for me, they couldn't have done it any better. 

News: Superman AND Batman!

This is some old news, but I'm way behind in news stories, and I'm going to try to post several to get caught up. Man of Steel 2 WILL have Batman. Dude, I'm pretty sure this is what it feels like to live in a perfect world.
