RoboCop was one of those movies that stuck with me from childhood all the way into adulthood. I was probably too young when I first saw it, but oh well. It was worth it. The moral of the story is: it was a damn good film that was ahead of its time.
Admittedly, I haven’t really seen actor Tim Blake Nelson’s work before until recently with HBO’s Watchmen. He quickly captivated me with his character, Looking Glass; a brilliant, yet damaged and paranoid detective. I was a fan of the graphic novel, and even with Looking Glass being an entirely new character, he fast became my favorite part of the show.
Olivia Wilde’s first effort directing a feature-length film quickly earned her a fantastic reputation as a director. And enough so, that various studios bid against each other for her next movie project, with New Line winning the rights. While her first film, Booksmart, leaned on comedy, her next effort is a psychological thriller.
It feels like the final season of Agents of SHIELD is fast approaching, and so far from what we’ve seen, it’ll be a fun but bittersweet final season.
What’s that? You wanted to see the trailer? Just look above!
I’ll admit. I had zero interest when Venom came out in theaters. It looked ridiculous. Plus, how can there be an Eddie Brock without a Peter Parker out-photographing him? Or a Venom without a symbiote that is hellbent on revenge against Spider-Man for being rejected?
I eventually gave in and watched the movie and I was more than pleasantly surprised. I enjoyed it a lot. Tom Hardy made a very interesting and weird Eddie Brock, and his Venom felt like a teenage oddball. It was fun.
It’s no secret that Marvel’s Agents of SHIELD is one my favorite television shows. The cast has great chemistry together, and the writing is fantastic. The story arcs never meander and the character development feels organic and always moving forward.
I’m terribly late to the party, but oh well.
A while ago, The Batman director Matt Reeves released photos of his version of the Batmobile, with a couple also showing Robert Pattinson as Batman in the shadows.
