When I first sent out this week’s Roundtable topic to the staff, it was intended as a tie-in with the theatrical release of ‘The Green Hornet‘, which I had in my head as a comic book movie. As some of you probabl...
Comic book stories about superheroes have remained a staple of cinema and television screens for decades. Over the last couple of years, a peculiar sub-genre has permutated in which ordinary people get inspired by comics to dress ...
Finally, some good news has emerged from the clusterfrack that is the MGM financial crisis. While the studio is still terribly mismanaged and basically bankrupt, it has somehow scraped together enough money to put the next James B...
Honestly, did anyone expect NBC’s new superhero series ‘The Cape’ to be good? No, we didn’t. Everything about it looks atrocious. Now it’s aired and, no surprise, it is atrocious!
