What can I say about Thor that hasn’t already been bellowed from every other blog mountain? I liked it, didn’t love it. It was enjoyable, but not necessarily good. Performances all around were solid. But I guess I should fill out a few paragraphs right? I can’t just say “it’s worth your money but not your 3D money” and then move on can I? Ok fine, here we go.
I feel much better about this whole project now. We finally have a trailer that manages to capture the scope that Kenneth Branagh is probably going for. The Destroyer’s model details look to have been tightened up and we get to see the lighter side of Thor. Check it: Pretty sweet, right? That’s how I’m [...]

Zack’s Odyssey Chapter 1 Where we are introduced to a new kind of art-form and where no one is let off the hook. So I’ve heard before from creative peoples that if you want to be happy with what you’re doing, you have to create for yourself and not for anyone else. Which is an [...]

I’m not going to go so far as to say that you’ll love Iron Man 2. I don’t know you. That’s even considering that whoever might be reading this is more than likely a nerd. There are many kinds of nerds out there and some just don’t dig comic books or the movies that are birthed from them. Hey, I can’t fucking stand card games like Magic. See? Different classes of nerds. With most of the reviews from people who get paid to do what I’m doing saying that this movie is “so-so” and folks who have similar tastes to us here at Media Breach saying this is a “smoldering load of goodness you want in your face”, I can understand how one would be conflicted about the actually quality of this film. I’ve let my initial reaction to this movie die down to try and figure out exactly why anybody wouldn’t like this film or flat out not love it and I think I figured out why.
That’s right, haters, I loved it. Loved, loved, loved, Iron Man 2. As soon as the opening credits started being displayed, I knew it would rule. This is the kind of summer/sequel/comic book movie I love to see. There’s mounds of payoff, call backs to the first film (which I had the pleasure of seeing in the theater again just before the midnight screening of IM2), way more laughs than I expected, and just some all around great action littered with fanboy moments. I know a lot of people said the same thing in May 2008, but the rest of the films releasing this summer are on notice; the bar has been set so good luck.

The Hollywood Reporter has an exclusive claiming that Chris Evans (Fantastic Four) has been offered the role of Steve Rogers/Cap in Joe Johnston’s The First Avenger: Captain America. There could be one minor complication though, and that would be Chris Evans has already committed to shooting What’s Your Number? with Anna Farris this summer. ¬†To [...]
