Star Wars: The Rise Of SkyWalker

April 26, 2025 by Leave a Comment

Star Wars is back this holiday season with its final movie of the Star Wars episodes: The Rise of SkyWalker! We see Rey continuing her training without the use of Luke, much like Luke continuing his training in the Force after the loss of both his mentors Obi Wan and Yoda. Not only that, but we also see in this story that Rey will continue her battles with Kylo Ren, who was last seen taking his place as Supreme Leader, after slaying his master Snoke. The real twist that all fans want to know is, how did Palpatine survived his demise on the second Death Star in Return of the Jedi? Does he have cloned bodies made for himself as suggested in comic and video game storylines or will we see a completely new concept on how the Dark Lord is still able to influence the galaxy way past his time. What are your thoughts? Leave your comments below!

Lord Beerus

April 26, 2025 by Leave a Comment

Dragonball Z is now Dragonball Super, an era where Earth defenders are battling among gods. Lord Beerus, God of Destruction is the new villain whose purpose is to destroy planets, thus bringing balance in the cosmos. Lord Beerus resembles the appearance of the Egyptian God Set, with destructive power like Sekhmet. The only thing that seems to distract Beerus from his destructive quest is the taste of unique foods. Because of this, Earth is spared as long as Beerus appetite is satisfied.

Even though Lord Beerus is classified a villain because of his destructive nature, he is responsible for making Goku and Vegeta aware of the saiyan God. Although Beerus is a god, he has a martial arts master named Whis, who is responsible for training Beerus and the saiyans to use their god forms. The saiyans trained immensely to master their new powers but still fall short of Beerus’ might individually. Broly and Omega Shenron are two powerful villains that Earth defenders had to face. Omega Shenron is the negative force of Shenron, created from the overuse of the dragonballs. Broly is a saiyan born with abnormal energy reserves that continues to grow rapidly during combat without ever fatiguing. Since both super villains have an overwhelming sense for destruction and with proper training, could Broly or Omega Shenron take on the role as God of Destruction?

Iron Man vs Batman

April 26, 2025 by 2 Comments

 

The showdown between Batman and Iron Man is a popular topic among comic fans. Both Bruce Wayne and Tony Stark are leaders in their own worlds as businessmen and fearless warriors as heroes. But which character reigns supreme? Let’s start with the comparison of both companies: Wayne Enterprises and Stark Industries. Not only are both companies’ giants in the technology and weapon industries, but Wayne Enterprises also has monopolies in agriculture, media and commodities. Having influence on the economic flow throughout the world creates astonishing wealth for Bruce Wayne. With his technology and resources, Bruce Wayne has created the Watchtower for the Justice League. With this, Wayne Tech has more in common with the Star Trek technology than the fantasy Enterprise Space Armor concept for Iron Man…

As heroes, both have created suits and tech to help them with crime fighting. Both characters have many villains that range from universal, supernatural and domestic levels.  Which man do you think can take on both hero personas effectively? Is it Tony Stark or Bruce Wayne? What if Bruce Wayne used The Bleeding Edge Armor concept for himself? How convenient it would be for Bruce Wayne to shift into his batsuit like Tony Stark, Black Panther and even Superman. Tony Stark’s R.T Tech has enhanced his body, making Tony superhuman. This would also be a great addition to Bruce if he were to use it help aid him as Batman. But ask yourself this: has the batsuit become similar to the Iron Man armors with the Batwing Armor? Isn’t Wayne’s tech not too far from Tony’s potential?

In cinema, both characters made big production in sales, with Batman in the lead. This is because Batman has been on the movie screen since 1989. Fans prefer the Christian Bale Batman over the others mainly because of the vision from Christopher Nolan. Was Robert Downey Jr an excellent choice for Iron Man? How exciting would it be to have a live action sequence of these two characters at their full potential…. 

In the film Avenger: Infinity War, was the Russo Brothers paying homage to the battle between Batman and Iron Man in this scene with Thanos? If Batman could somehow send a flock of bats at Iron Man like this, what could Tony do to outwit the Dark Knight? Both Iron Man and Batman has experienced greater power in their own universes with the Infinity Gauntlet and the Lantern Power Rings. As powerful as the Infinity Gauntlet is, would the combination of the white, green and yellow power ring be enough for Batman to take on Iron Man? With the use of universal power, who do you think is the best wielder of cosmic power as a mortal?

Ultron

April 26, 2025 by 3 Comments

Ultron is among the artificial intelligent beings of science fiction thrillers, which is a computerized intelligence that rejects its programming after becoming self-aware. The system would then eliminate human beings because humans are viewed as a threat to its evolution. Ultron has gone through many upgrades to reach his “perfect form”. Ultron is the first to be completely constructed in adamantium as part of his design enhancements. Ultron can control computer interfaces, the human mind and even the alien race Phalanx. 

Henry Pym created Ultron among his many experiments, but this creation was equipped with Pym’s very own consciousness, enabling Ultron experience human emotion. Choosing hate, Ultron hatred for Pym is because his existence was made possible by an “imperfect ” life form. In the film The Avengers: Age of Ultron, it was described that Tony Stark was responsible for the creation of Ultron. Ultron in turn was supposed to be the creator of Vision but on film, it was Tony Stark, Bruce Banner and Thor responsible for the creation of the android.

Ultron interface is similar to the Skynet Interface System. When threaten with destruction, the two systems would create robotic soldiers (terminators / ultronbots) to defend, contain or annihilate the threat to its source. Over time, the Skynet systems upgraded its robotic soldiers to cyborgs, equipping them with human tissue for disguise. This tactic is used to help infiltrate and eliminate the Resistance. Similarly, Ultron wanted to destroy The Avengers from within, so he created the android Vision, but just like Ultron’s need to discard his set program, Vision broke free from Ultron’s control to join and help The Avengers take down the corrupted A.I, just like the T-101 or T-H cyborgs joining the Resistance to take down Skynet.

Ultron’s goals is to evolve, gain universal knowledge, destroy humanity, become omnipotent. What if Ultron gained control of Vector Sigma? If this happened, could Ultron then enhance his robotic armor to transform into vehicles of disguise like the Transformers? Would Ultron be a threat to Cybertron that the two opposing forces must join together to defeat this foe, or would they fall victim to Ultron’s new upgrade?

Dr. Manhattan

April 26, 2025 by Leave a Comment

There are many god-like beings within the comic universes. Some of these beings are either a helpful guide or a destroyer for both heroes and villains. Some gods are observers like the Watcher and/or on rare occasions engage in battle like The Celestials vs Thanos in the Infinity Gauntlet series. With Dr. Manhattan’s character design, could he be the physical embodiment of the bio-electrical energy that powers our human body?

Dr. Manhattan was a human being before the accident that turned him into the luminous godlike being. This what makes Dr. Manhattan unique and separates him from other cosmic entities. Dr. Manhattan is similar to the stories of Simon Williams aka Wonder Man and Nathaniel Adam aka Captain Atom. Each of their origins started from scientific experiments gone wrong resulting in a being with cosmic powers.

Dr. Manhattan is a member of the superhero team called The Watchmen. This graphic novel transformed into a movie which displays that if such power like Dr. Manhattan is created here on Earth, such power who be taken advantage of for negative purposes. Dr. Manhattan was used as a military tool to bring fear to other nations. His mentality evolved where he soon realized his place was no longer on Earth but in the creation of the cosmos. Do you think The Watchmen film was a great adaptation of the comic book, or could it have been better?

Joker 2019 Movie Review!!!!!

April 26, 2025 by Leave a Comment


Joker is an origin story of how Arthur Fleck became the Clown Prince of Crime in Gotham City. Since the opening weekend, Joker has grossed $1.079 billion worldwide with mixed reviews from comic fans and movie critics like Rotten Tomatoes, who dropped their score for this film since the prescreening review. Despite the mixed reviews, Joker is the #1 rated R movie of all cinematic history. The dark tone was believed to incite violence to the audience as it did in The Dark Knight and fans wondered if Joaquin Phoenix could portray the iconic villain in a way we haven’t seen before.

This story takes place right before the infrastructure collapse of Gotham City. Arthur is among the lower class of Gotham City, living in the projects with his mother and working as a clown, either for party entertainment or street advertising. Arthur suffers from a mental disorder that causes him to laugh hysterical, especially during times of stress, nervousness and anger. Arthur is provided with heavy medication by social services, who is soon be shut down. Despite his hardships, Arthur inspires to become a stand-up comedian, take care of his mother and be respected by others.

Despite his efforts for a peaceful life, Arthur was always physical or verbally attacked by people that didn’t understand his mental condition. This movie displayed the underlying tension between the upper and lower class of Gotham City, especially after the deaths of three Wayne employees by Arthur’s hand. Slowly Arthur began losing his sanity, losing his sense of right and wrong, as his personal life began to crumble before him. Arthur began to embrace the attention he received after committing his crimes, believing that crime and chaos would break the spirit of the upper-class citizens in Gotham.

The cinematic version of the Joker began with Jack Nicholson in the 1989 film of the Batman. Nicholson’s Joker was more of a prankster than a homicidal maniac. Like the comics, Jack’s Joker became disfigured by falling in a vat of chemicals, turning his skin ghost white and his hair emerald green. This Joker is very similar to the Joker in cartoon series. Heath Ledger was next to portray the villainous character in The Dark Knight. Comic fans have voted that Heath was the best Joker because of how he bent Gotham’s underworld to his will. Heath’s Joker was less focused on prankster antics and more on domination. Suicide Squad brought in the next Joker with Jared Leto. This story of the Joker was about how his relationship began with Harley Quinn. As we seen in the comics and cartoons, Joker treats Harley with kindness and disrespect at the same time. The hoodlum, gangstar look for Joker, with the tattoos and platinum grills, had a disconnect with comic fans. The Joker displayed by Joaquin made the audience sympathize with how the character came to be. Through this story of the Joker, he would seem to be a symbol to the impoverished people of society. Who do you think was the best Joker so far in the cinematic universe?

This film incorporated events that led up to the deaths of Thomas and Martha Wayne. In all previous versions of the story, The Waynes is leaving the theatre out the side exit leading to a dark alley. What is confusing is why would they leave out the theatre in that direction? Why wasn’t Alfred out front waiting to usher the family in their vehicle? This movie gave a different perspective on that night; riots in the street is what forced the Waynes to run for cover in the alley, only to be spotted by a clown protestor who has a grudge with Thomas Wayne. Ben Affleck retired his role as Batman, moving the position to Robert Pattinson of the Twilight series. Will DC’s cinematic universe keep Joaquin as The Joker so he can face off against the new Batman?

Zoë Kravitz has been announced as the actress to play Catwoman in the upcoming Batman film with Robert Pattinson. Zoë is no stranger to the silver screen, especially in the comic book category. Joe played Angel Salvadore: in X-Men: First Class, was the voice over in Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse as Mary Jane and the voice for Catwoman in the Lego Batman movie. If DC Comics decide to bring these actors together in the new Batman storyline, will they be able to beat out their predecessors and become the new fan favorites? Comic Multiverse has rated this movie 9 out of 10. What is your rating for this film, and do you think the Batman Universe will ever be secure will the continual changes in character portrayal?

X-Men: Dark Phoenix Movie Review!!!

April 26, 2025 by Leave a Comment

X-Men: Dark Phoenix to date has grossed $34 million from a $200 million dollar budget. Critics and comic fans agree that the X-Men movie franchise lacks accuracy and consistency among its films. This film is rated the worst among the other X-Men films released, leaving fans worried if the New Mutants would make it to the cinematic format. X-Men: Dark Phoenix is the X-Men‘s final battle like the Endgame for the Avengers. This film loosely focuses on the Dark Phoenix comic series…

The D’Bari race are among the billions killed by Dark Phoenix in the comics. In this film, they come to Earth to claim the power of the Phoenix Force, to help rebuild their race. This is similar to the portrayal of the Skrulls in 2019 Captain Marvel, but the D’Bari killed the human forms they choose to mimic and seem to be physically stronger than some their mutant opponents. The leader Vuk tried to manipulate Jean into giving the power of the Phoenix to her, which is somewhat similar with Sebastian Shaw bringing Jean Grey into the folds of the HellFire Club. The HellFire Club was featured in X-Men: First Class.

It’s confusing with how Dark Phoenix was displayed in this movie compared to her portrayal in the Last Stand and Apocalypse. In the Last Stand, Jean is approached by Charles and Erik about her powers and receives an invitation to their Institution for the gifted. In this movie, Jean inadvertently kills her mother and injures her father in a car crash. From there, Charles decides to take Jean and train her to control her powers correctly. In X-Men United, Jean’s power of the Phoenix manifested when she sacrifices herself to save the X-Men. This throws off the audience because in Apocalypse and The Last Stand, Jean’s inner power was always caged away mentally by Xavier, as if the Phoenix Force was a part of Jean all along and he knew of the darker side the power has.  Both times we see the Dark Phoenix on film, she disintegrates her victims in a form that is similar to the Gauntlet snap in Infinity War and Endgame. Why do you think movie producers like the use of ashes as the form of death caused by cosmic power?

This film continues the difference in ideals between Charles and Erik. The loss of Mystique brought the rivalry back to life between the leaders. Erik resides on Genosha with his following of mutant refugees, without the scrutiny of the world governments. When Erik finds out Jean killed Mystique, he sets out to destroy her while Xavier tries his last attempt into saving her. Because the X-Men began to fall apart and helping mutants is not being perceived as self-served, Xavier retires his position at the X-Mansion. Erik wanted nothing more but to stand apart from humans since his traumatic upbringing while Xavier, always believed that mutants could coexist peacefully with humans. In the end, both Erik and Xavier are right and wrong on how mutants should exist on Earth.

If the all X-Men films have inconsistent story plots, why has the franchise last over 12 films? Why do we as comic fans keep buying into it? It’s because of the great actors who’ve portrayed the iconic characters and the CGI visual creativity of the mutant powers. It’s possible that the MCU will include the X-Men, since Disney owns 20th Century Fox, but that X-Men would become a reboot, new actors and new story. X-Men: Dark Phoenix should have been a two part feature, where the finale would bring the audience full circle back to the X-Men of 2000 or if the past was really altered by the help of Wolverine in Days of Future Past, then the movie should have brought the story to that timeline.

Aquaman 2018

April 26, 2025 by Leave a Comment

AquaMan featured in his first live film with the Justice League and now will he will have his own solo film this coming December. The DC cinematic universe differs from the MCU because the MCU had a plan to make the Avengers in the past and felt best to make solo films of the prominent members before making the big feature film. This film is filled with CGI much like Avatar but comic fans feel this movie will make a big début. If the solo films of DC Comics continue to succeed, will there be another Justice League film? This time bringing Darkseid?? Stay posted for the movie review!!

The Avengers

April 26, 2025 by 7 Comments

The Avengers is one of Marvel Comics prominent teams that works alongside of the government’s S.H.I.E.L.D agency. The Avengers purpose is to defend the world against treats that could destroy it. This super team is similar to the squad Lex Luthor created while acting as President in Public Enemies. The Justice League is different because they work outside government control, which makes a scapegoat or a constant target to the public and official parties.

Even though The Avengers is a team of heroes, they can find themselves at war with other super teams such as the X-Men, or battle with themselves like in the Civil War Series. Do you think The Avengers is the ultimate super team of Marvel Comics?

The Avenger’s popularity has grown from the comics to television with Avengers: Earth Mightiest Heroes, then has moved to the big screen with the smash hits like 2012 The Avengers. Age of Ultron, and Infinity War. Even though the team has gone through many changes within the roster; Thor, Captain America and Iron Man has remained the team’s main characters. Since the film and TV show, the team roster began to grow with more heroes such as Black Widow, Hawkeye, and The Hulk.

After knowing the complete list of heroes that was or is now part of the Avengers, which hero would you have loved to see in the movie as part of the team or a cameo? How about Wolverine? The Avengers has many more movies in store for the future so will get many more surprises from Marvel Comics.
