With all the brouhaha (brood-haha?) surrounding Batman v Superman, you may have forgotten that there’s another DC Comics property hitting the screen this year, and boy does it look bad. And that’s both like a 80’s Michael Jackson “bad” (youngsters: that actually means good, just ask your older siblings/parents to explain) and because of all the bad guys that are in …
It’s still very early days into the DC Comic Cinematic Universe, but it seems like they are certainly trying to move ahead with expanding on it as much as possible, despite all the debates over whether Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice is actually going to spring a profit or not.

If you’re anything like me your reaction to this news is also… wait, what? Well, it’s true. Will Smith and Joel Edgerton (via TheWrap) are attached to star in Bright – a cop thriller with fantasy elements set in a world where orcs and fairies live among humans, and that features an Orc cop as the main protagonist; presumably not a …

The announcement of the Academy Awards nominations is never without some surprises. Movies and actors that you thought were shoe-ins might have been snubbed, while other nominations might have come out of left field.

Forget about heroes. It's time for the villains to shine in DC's upcoming Suicide Squad film that features the worst of the worst coerced into working for the US government.
In case you somehow haven’t noticed, there are a lot of superheroes hitting our screen. So many in fact, that most of them just end up fighting each other (see: Captain America: Civil War and Batman v Superman: They’re Really Sticking To This Dumb Title). Thankfully, we’re also getting something to balance out all that smug, square-jawed goodness with DC and …
2016 is a big year for DC as their shared cinematic universe kicks off in earnest. While Batman v Superman: The Trailers Spoil Everything! Dawn of Justice is getting most of the headlines ahead of its 25 March release date, we shouldn’t forget Suicide Squad is also being released later in the year. There’s even a rather brief synopsis: A secret …
Have you ever double-checked your doors at night because something just didn’t feel secure? …
A spooky European village. Properly scary castle mania. Vampires. Werewolves!
