A dark version of Sam Raimi's **Spider-Man 2 ** takes place in a different universe. Often regarded as the definitive Marvel movie and one of the best superhero movies in history, Sam Raimi's Spider-Man 2 placed Doctor Octopus as a top-tier supervillain. Alfred Molina's Doc Ock wanted to push the boundaries of science, only to be turned into a monster by his own creati
The episode was action-packed, fun, and occasionally funny (Hulk repeatedly picks fights with The Thing and likes to make fun of the guy for never having won), and there was even a twist ending (SPOILER ALERT
Next was the animation portion of the panel, where Loeb debuted some of the very first footage of **Ultimate Spider-Man ** (written by Paul Dini and the Man of Action team – Joe Casey, Joe Kelly – with additional help from Brian Michael Bendis, Joe Quesada, Dan Buckley, and more). Some things of note about the foot
It’s a moment of pure dominance and psychological menace . It perfectly encapsulates his worldview. He warns his fellow inmates that justice isn’t bound by walls, and fear is the only law that truly rules in his prese
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, official Spiderman 2mix blog if not the largest, fan base in the wo
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
Yet, Doc Ock's plan to cremate Jean Grey before she turns into a zombie backfires in a way nobody expects. Instead of incinerating her body, Octopus' machine leads Jean to transform into the Phoenix, who may or may not also be a zombie. This version of Marvel Zombies ' infection may place Jean Grey in a similar spot as the MCU Marvel Zombies ' Scarlet Witch , who claims the title of the Red Queen, leader of all the und
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
As shown in the previous issue and in previous iterations of Marvel Zombies , infected superhumans are extraordinarily durable, and even more intelligent than traditional zombies. Similarly to Alfred Molina's Doctor Octopus in Sam Raimi's Spider-Man 2 , Marvel Zombies: Red Band 's Doctor Octopus creates his small star with noble intentions, though "the power of the sun" could quickly get out of control, as it's capable of incinerating anything it comes in contact w
Also on ABC Family will be Mockingbird , a story about Bobbi Morse – Hawkeye eventually married her in the comics – a freshmen in college (perhaps Stanford in California) who gets contacted by S.H.I.E.L.D. and becomes a secret agent. Basically, the thrust of the show is, "College student by day, secret agent by night," and according to Jeph Loeb, it’ll be like J.J. Abrams’ Felicity meets J.J. Abrams’ Alias . That's a lot of J.J. Abrams going on th
As a pinball game, Marvel Pinball is as solid as they come. The physics featured in this game are identical to pinball machines you would find at your local arcade. Plus, you get to enter and record your high scores, compare them up against the world, compare them against your friends, and even the vibration feedback makes you feel that much closer to the real thing. You also have all the standards that come with a pinball table, including bumpers, rails, stand-up targets, etc. I especially like the fact that the game has the courtesy to move the Xbox Live notifications to the middle of the screen instead of at the bottom, because, if you know anything about pinball, you know that covering any part of the bottom of the screen could result in the loss of a ball. You lose three balls, and you're out. Game o
Hellboy is a 2004 film directed by Guillermo del Toro, featuring Ron Perlman as the titular character. Rescued by Allied forces during World War II, Hellboy is a demon who grows up to combat dark supernatural forces as an agent for the Bureau of Paranormal Research & Defense alongside allies Abe Sapien and Liz Sher
What do you think of this mega-acquisition of Marvel by Disney ? Does it make you as apprehensive as me for the future or elated that we may have an enormous opportunity to see more comic films in the fut
