So today’s big story, hands-down, is that Quicksilver has ignited a war between Marvel and Fox. Out of all the characters the two either have dual ownership of or would want to use in a movie, who would have thought it would be Pietro Maximoff that set it off? Well if you’ve been under a [...]
The trailers, clips, posters, and teasers we’ve seen for The Wolverine make it seem like we really will be getting a good Wolverine movie for once.

Typically with this series, I try to take on rogues that are a bit more obscure and a bit less obvious, a majority of which have yet to be seen in a big screen production. However, there are a few villains that were either handled so poorly in other films, or just need a revamp, that I [...]
