Despite having an arrow aimed at a depowered Thor and having set Loki up for a Hulk ragdolling of note, Jeremy Renner’s Hawkeye has been absent from the current phase of Marvel movies.

Chappie may have taken first place at the box office, but considering the overall results for the North American top ten, it was like winning a foot race against a coma patient. Neil Blomkamp’s third movie crashed and burned in terms of cash, taking in a mere $13.3 million on opening in the slowest weekend of 2015 so far. In …
We’re all getting old. Some quicker than others, as Kervyn and Nick now resemble a horribly miscast reboot of Grumpy Old Men when they leave for work in the morning. It can be difficult to keep up with life, and just about everyone here has a family member who has no idea what the hell a FaceBook is. That’s pretty …

Well, then step over this way my pretties (and Nick) as …
Ah, John Travolta. What an actor. He’s been on the scene for so long it’s difficult to remember him as Danny in Grease and since then he’s been nearly as sporadic as the Crazy Nicholas Cage. Well he looks to be on form in this trailer for The Forge – no, not the 2012 movie of the exact same name starring Josh Hutcherson. …
