Batman v Superman had the potential to be the greatest superhero clash ever. Sadly, it crumbled under the weight of its own ambition. Zack Snyder’s visually stunning, but tonally heavy film tried to combine "The Dark Knight Returns," "Death of Superman," and Justice League setup all at o
Kingdom Hearts 1 's Halloween Town doesn't feature any elements of Christmas, but Kingdom Hearts 2 's incarnation of Halloween Town actually takes place a year after the original Nightmare Before Christmas and lets Sora explore Christmas T
Critics slammed Fantastic Four ’s pacing, tone and lack of fun. Even Trank publicly disowned the final cut. What could have been a bold reimagining turned into a lifeless origin story that alienated viewers and embarrassed marvel’s spider-man 2 dlc|https://spiderman2Mix.com/ most enduring t
The Kingdom Hearts series is famous for perfectly merging the worlds of classic Disney films with the edgy fantasy designs of Final Fantasy and while Kingdom Hearts 1 does explore The Nightmare Before Christmas a bit, Kingdom Hearts 2 does more
Tim Burton’s Batman opens with a scene that immediately defines the hero’s mythic presence . After stopping two muggers on a Gotham rooftop, Batman (Michael Keaton) dangles one over the edge as the terrified man pleads for his life. Batman growls, "I’m not going to kill y
This line rarely gets mentioned alongside the film’s flashier moments. In an era before cynicism colored most hero stories, Superman stood as an embodiment of pure hope . The quote reminds audiences that being a hero isn’t just about saving lives, but believing in something bet
For years, on both Game Rant and Screen Rant, we've suffered through the awkward video game-film relationship. The sad reality, as we so often repeat, is that movies based on video games and video game movie tie-ins all suck, with the rare exception here and th
Pro - Disney is a universal name with pockets so deep that God's hand would have a hard time reaching the bottom. Marvel is no slouch either in the household name department - but let's face it, they are no Disney. All that extra money, means way more marketing and increased traffic within the theme parks (sorry Universal but looks like you might lose the X-Men characters in your parad
Overall, I feel that this game catered more towards pinball enthusiasts than Marvel fans. Don't be fooled true believers. The novelty of having Marvel characters wears off once you realize that this is in fact a pinball game. It is not only a pinball game, but a pretty challenging one to boot. If you're a pinball fan, by all means this one is for you. If you're not too big into pinball, then chances are you won't be too impressed with this one. This is by all means not a bad game. However, I can't say the same about it not being uninspi
Con - With movies like Iron Man 2 , Spider-man 4 , The Incredible Hulk 2 , Thor , The Avengers and Captain America on the horizon, what does this mean for their development? Iron Man 2 is already in full swing so I doubt we see any type of delay with that one, but with no other pre-production or principle photography under way on some other films, could we see some eventual delay
Andrew Garfield’s charm and Emma Stone’s chemistry couldn’t save The Amazing Spider-Man 2 from collapsing under its own ambitions. Sony packed the film with villains and sequel teases , desperately trying to launch a cinematic universe instead of focusing on a coherent story. Electro, the Green Goblin, and Rhino all fought for screen time without quite getting eno
X-Men: The Last Stand is the third film in the X-Men series, featuring the conflict between mutants over a newly discovered cure for mutations. The film showcases the X-Men, led by Professor Charles Xavier, opposing the Brotherhood, led by Magneto, as tensions escalate within the mutant commun
Pro - On the flip side, with Disney having such deep pockets, that means much more available funds to push MORE movies into production. It's not like Disney is buying Marvel because they were threatened by Marvel's market share and were trying to buy out the competition. No, Disney bought Marvel to use the property rights, not sit on them. This could mean we start seeing Marvel characters pushed into multiple forms of media. More cartoons, more comics, more live action TV shows and definitely more mov
Catwoman wasn’t just disappointing, it became a cinematic punchline. Starring Halle Berry as Patience Phillips, the movie followed a completely new character unrelated to Batman Return’s Selina Kyle . As a result, the film ignored decades of comic lore in favor of a bizarre fashion-magazine aesthe
Con - We could find ourselves over-saturated with watered down superheroes, quickly written scripts and under produced adaptation that are Disney is just looking to make a quick buck with. They are, after all, trying to re-coup $4 billion dollars of investment. It is distinctly possible that quality could suffer. Hopefully that won't be the case, because whether Disney knows it or not, they are now under intense scrutiny from one of these largest, if not the largest, fan base in the wo
