The Batman franchise was practically dead and buried after the cinematic abomination known as Batman & Robin in 1997. Then along came Batman Begins to not only redeem the franchise, but make it far better than it ever had been before. Batman Begins is more than just another super hero movie, Batman Begins is a super hero epic!
This is a guest review written by Marcus from www.marcusmccurdy.com
When I first saw the previews for Hancock I couldn’t wait to see it. The idea of a bumbling super hero intrigued me and the physics of it all seemed more realistic to me what with him landing and destroying the street around him and stopping trains that ends up in their derailment. Preview after preview and my excitement grew. Then, as the release date crept inexorable closer I began to worry. Some preliminary reviews came out and from what I read Hancock did not sound like it was the movie I was hoping for or the movie the trailers portrayed. Will Hancock be able to save itself from the hype? Keep reading to find out!
Spiderman 2 is fantastic! It took everything that made Spiderman a great comic book movie, and made it all the better. Its one of the rare sequels that outdoes the original in every way, and it is one of the best super hero movies ever made. Read more
Ah Spiderman 1. A very enjoyable and fun movie. It makes me sad to know how big of a slap in the face Spiderman 3 was after two great movies. But Spiderman 3 can not dampen the greatness of the first two films.
Spiderman was really the movie that started the current success…
Ok so the upgrade is complete, but some of the files for the site’s theme got corrupted somehow so they had to be reloaded. Everything should be working fine now and back to normal, but some stuff is still being worked out and not all of the plugins are back in place yet. However, this shouldn’t really effect your reading of the site.
We are upgrading the site software to Wordpress version 2.6 so there may be some downtime if you try and access the site in the next 20-30 minutes, but we will be back shortly.
Hellboy II is a very fun movie. It has likable characters, good action, good humor and a very strong imagination (but that is to be expected from the director of Pan’s Labyrinth). It may just seem like another super hero movie in a year where men in iron suits, green giants and flying Will Smiths seem to flood the big screen, but Hellboy II is actually my favorite of the bunch so far.

To honor the release of The Dark Knight, I have decided to review a few super hero films leading up to the highly anticipated Batman Begins sequel. I plan on reviewing.
Hellboy II: The Golden Army
Spiderman
Spiderman 2
and of course, Batman Begins.
I have been so goosed up for The Dark Knight I had to give it the special treatment!
I know this movie came out in ‘06, but I feel the need to write a review on something horrible. I really do hate this movie. Read more
I recently received the Nintendo Power 20th anniversary issue! I think it’s probably the best issue in a while. They have a good interview with Keiji Inafune (the creator of Mega Man) about the epic Mega man 9 and a review for Final Fantasy IV for the DS (of course who in the world reads a console specific magazine for the reviews). The best part of the issue (since I already know about Megaman 9) is the “Best of the Best” section which is a list of the 20 best games for every Nintendo console. Here’s how said lists ended up.
