An Explanation has Arrived!

 

Hello Everyone! Hope you all had a great new year and a wonderful holiday. 

I decided I should probably give you guys an explanation as to what happened to me over my winter break and what the future of the site will be like. I decided to do this as a video because I have a lot to say and I know everyone doesn't have to time to read paragraphs and paragraphs of explanation. 

For those of you wondering though, I will be returning to the site now even though I am at school. Yes, I am busy during the school semester, but I saw a lot of movies over break and I want to be able to give my opinions on them since I know some of you enjoy them and I enjoy doing them. Also, there will not be as many trailers and movie news coming out. I will still post both trailers and movie news, but only the stuff I think people would really want to know about. 

So be prepared to see new reviews out, trailers, and movie news! 

Thank you all so much for the views and being patient with the site, it really does mean a lot to me!

Foxy Update

Hello Everyone!

Just letting you know that since Christmas is finally over and most of all my family has left, I am going to start putting reviews up. So far I need to do reviews on "The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn Pt. 2" since I went to midnight release of that back in November, "The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey" since I was able to see that over break, and I should be seeing "Les Miserables" in the next couple off days. I also have a ton of other reviews to catch up on such as "The Hunger Games", "The Dark Knight Rises", etc. So keep an eye out for reviews, trailers, and news because, like I said, the site will be back up and running for a short period of time.

Again thank you all for the views, I greatly appreciate it!

I'm Back!

Hello all my viewers!

I have finally returned! Well only for a bit for now. I know a lot of you have probably been wondering where I have been, and I said earlier (around August/September) I am a college student and that part of my life is very demanding at the moment. I tried providing you all with at least movie news, but even trying to do that took to much focus away from my school work. Well, here in America us college students are on winter break, and I have more than a month off. With that being said, I am going to have the site back up and running again for the rest of December and half of January; until I go back to school. There will be plenty of movie news, trailers, and even reviews coming your way since A LOT of anticipated movies will be released over Christmas. Thank you all for bearing with me not being around so much, and thank you for all the page views! It does mean a lot to me to know people are looking at the site. I do have a lot of family visiting for the Christmas holiday so I might not have a review out immediately since I will most likely be with them as much as I can, but I will try to post movie news as much as possible. I promise it will definitely pick up after the Christmas holiday.

Again thank you all for the views and being great fans!

And it's on my Birthday?! (Yes that really is my birthday!)

Whether you were pleased with how Christopher Nolan ended his "Dark Knight" franchise, there is finally a release date for the DVD/Blu-Ray. "The Dark Knight Rises" is suppose to be released on December 3, 2012. There will still be speculation over exactly what extra features will be included along with the theatrical cut of the film, but according to Warner Brothers, "The Dark Knight Rises" will be available on DVD/Blu-ray and for digital download on that date. 


Here is the trailer for "The Dark Knight Rises": 

                           "The Dark Knight Rises" is owned by Warner Brothers/DC Comics 
                                          DVD/Blu-Ray release date: December 3, 2012

Movie News--First Comes "Avengers 2" Then Comes "Incredible Hulk 2"?

Ummm......wait what?

So as we all know Marvel Studios is already doing it's "marketing scheme" of having a bunch of movies lead up to one big one. As it started its first cinematic "marketing scheme" with "Iron Man", it will begin again with "Iron Man 3" in spring of next year. Following that will be "Thor: The Dark World" and "Captain America: The Winter Soldier. Lastly, we will se the much anticipated "Guardians of the Galaxy". All of these will lead up to the 2015 release of "The Avengers 2". In seeing all these movie releases though, there is one question on everyones mind. Where does the Incredible Hulk fit in all of this?

Although Bruce Banner/The Incredible Hulk are the first characters to get their own live-action television show from "The Avengers", it doesn't look like he will be getting his own solo movie again any time soon. Do not worry though! Mark Ruffalo, the "new" Bruce Banner who replaced Edward Norton in "The Avengers", has a six picture contract with Marvel Studios and we will see him over and over again bigger and better. But with Marvel already starting its Phase Two of cinematic history, why will we not be seeing "The Incredible Hulk 2"?

Well looking at everything, Marvel has another couple big years coming up with creating their new cinematic universe. Everything has a release date, that is except for the "Ant-Man" movie which is estimated to possibly be released in 2014 now (That will be three movie releases in one year!). According to ScreenRant, this is what the studio had to say "In chatting with Louis D’Esposito, Co-President of Marvel Studios, he made it it clear to me that the studio doesn’t want to put too much on their plate and stretch their resources thin. Translation: it’s possible that Ant-Man could be a second release alongside The Avengers 2 in 2015, the same year Marvel’s President of Consumer Products, Paul Glitter, previously said The Incredible Hulk 2 was planned for." 









  


In all reality it all comes down to one thing, especially for Hollywood execs, what is going to make the company/studios more money. When "The Incredible Hulk" was released, it was the lowest grossing film out of all the Marvel films. It made nearly the same amount of money at the box office as Ang Lee’s "Hulk" did years before. By looking at that, Marvel execs, and with good reason, believe it would be a better business plan to expand the Marvel universe/franchise in hopes that it might make newer characters a hot topic and "sell" better. This is the same reason why characters such as Black Widow and Hawkeye will never get their own films or any other spin-off type thing. 

So where will the Hulk appear...he has to before "The Avengers 2" right? As most of us remember Mark Ruffalo NAILED the part of Bruce Banner/The Hulk in "The Avengers". It ended with him and Tony Stark/Iron Man (Robert Downey Jr.) driving off as our heroes split in the ending of "The Avengers". So does that mean The Hulk will be showing up in "Iron Man 3"? The answer to that is no. Is it possible that Bruce Banner is just going to seek isolation from the world for a bit? Possibly. Could he show up in other Marvel films such as "Captain America: The Winter Soldier"? Maybe. As of right now, though, there is no word to where the Hulk might show up or if he even will at all in the movies. 


Iron Man 3 releases May 3, 2013, Thor: The Dark World releases on November 8, 2013, Captain America: The Winter Soldier on April 4, 2014, Guardians of the Galaxy on August 1, 2014 and The Avengers 2 on May 1, 2015. 

So what do you think, is it better to see the Marvel universe expand in the movies, or would you rather see Hulk smash?

Movie News--Gwen Stacy in "The Amazing Spider-Man" Sequel

Easy come, easy go I suppose...














     





This summer, "The Amazing Spider-Man" opened in July and was a huge hit bring in over 700 million dollars worldwide. The reboot definitely had a new, refreshed feel to it; but it also stuck to the Spider-Man mythos enough for fans to like it. Two things that definitely enhanced the movies "greatness" was our new lead James Garfield who played Spider-man/Peter Parker, and the introduction to the new character (new to the movies) Gwen Stacy played by Emma Stone. Both of them gave performances that pleased audiences, and the chemistry between the two also didn't disappoint. With "The Amazing Spider-Man 2" already in development, die hard Spidey fans have one big question: What is going to happen to Gwen Stacy?

For those of you that don't know (SPOILER ALERT AHEAD!!!), Gwen Stacy does die in the Spider-Man comic by the hands of Peter Parker. In 1970, Gwen met her tragic end (fate) in "The Amazing Spider-Man" story arc called "The Night Gwen Stacy Died" (pretty forward enough). Peter Park (Spider-Man) finds out that one of his archnemisis Doctor Norman Osborn (The Green Goblin) has captured his classmate-turned-girlfriend Gwen Stacy, and is holding her captive at the George Washington Bridge. As Spider-Man arrives to the scene, he watches the Green Goblin throw his frightened girlfriend off the top of the bridge. Acting on instinct, Spider-Man quickly wraps a web around Gwen's ankles trying to save her. He thinks he does, but unfortunately he finds out that due to lack of his proper bungee support, he has accidentally snapped his girlfriend's neck killing her. Enraged, Spider-Man hunts down the Green Goblin and intends on killing him. He find him and beats him almost to near death, but in the end can't bring himself to actually kill him. The Green Goblin then uses this time to turn the tables by attempting to impale Spider-Man with sharp skewers on his glider. Spider-Man is alerted by his Spidey Sense though, and dodges the glider which then impales The Goblin (sort of like in the first Spider-Man film directed by Sam Raimi). This then ends the reigning terror of The Green Goblin. 









       











It was believed that Gwen's death was made because it eventually led to the romantic relationship between Peter Parker and Mary Jane Watson. Both were close friends of Gwen and found comfort in each other, which eventually led to being more than friends. In all reality though, Gwen was killed off because the writers simply did not know what else to do with her. As Peter and Gwen were graduating high school and were reaching adulthood, their very deep relationship was ending in one big thing...marriage. Marvel did not want Spider-Man to get married just yet because they felt like it would change the character and also would have made previously-planned plotlines difficult to initiate. Everyone thought a break-up would be too unrealistic, so Gwen's imminent fate was to die. 

So will Gwen meet her unfortunate fate in "The Amazing Spider-Man 2"? The answer seems to be yes. After Gwen was announced to play our leading lady in the reboot, most Spider-Man fans were waiting to see the funeral. There was one in the movie, but not for Gwen which left some die hard fans confused. So did this mean that her death was to be altered as well? The answer is no, it was just being delayed. Although some fans have been kicking and screaming about it, hopefully the sequel will stay true to its source material (Emma Stone has already admitted to wanting it that way). "The Amazing Spider-Man 2" is set to open May 2, 2014. 

So what do you think? Are you sad to maybe see Gwen go, or would you be happy if the sequel stuck to the comic?
