‘Blade’ Paved The Way For All The MCU Blockbusters That Would Follow (Video)
Not everyone, but many folks ignore or outright diss the ‘Blade’ contribution to what Marvel has offered the movie world.
(Looking at you, too, ‘Deadpool’… ‘Blade: Trinity’ was my fave of the series, but you take shots at it. Hannibal King foreverrr!)
Check out this discussion clip giving the props that Marvel’s first Black hero [before all the #WakandaForever stuff] movie deserves.
And yes, ‘Black Panther’ is a far better movie than anything in the ‘Blade’ franchise. Not the point though. Just saying it before the haters do.

This “Deadpool 2” is gonna be so hilariously snarky and gory and ooohhh soooo right! Plus… X-FORCE (the way Deadpool says it though *bwaaaahahaaa*). Brolin’s performance as Cable looks bad azz af, too!
Marvel Releases The Latest “Avengers: Infinity War” Teaser (Trailer)
HOOOOOLY SHEEEIT!!! Let’s go. Let’s. F**king. GOOOOOOO!
The latest trailer for “Avengers: Infinity War” though… Everything!! And EVERYONE in the Marvel Comics Universe throwing in in what looks like the ‘war to end all wars’ in the MCU.
Or a great big nuisance, from Thanos’ point of view, most likely.
But this trailer is promising a cinematic Spring like none other. Hurry up and get here April!

Venom Is In Spidey’s Neighborhood, But He Is Not ‘Friendly’ (Trailer)
Okay, so they are playing this Spiderman comic spinoff story ‘anti-hero’ style… good guy adjacent, in the best worst way, like how The Punisher does. Marvel looks like they are gonna do it again. Very interesting. Cleaning up these streets could get messy. Ha!
Watch the #Venom teaser trailer now. 10.5.18.

‘Deadpool 2’ (And Cable) Coming To A Theater Near You In May 2018 (Trailer)
“Deadpool” was an epic cinematic bonus chapter of the Marvel Entertainment movie anthology. Take that part seriously, but not much else… even the serious characters. Like Cable: serious dude. But in this wacky Wade Wilson world, best believe you will be getting in quite a few chuckles.
After surviving a near-fatal bovine attack, a disfigured cafeteria chef (Wade Wilson) struggles to fulfill his dream of becoming Mayberry’s hottest bartender while also learning to cope with his lost sense of taste. Searching to regain his spice for life, as well as a flux capacitor, Wade must battle ninjas, the yakuza, and a pack of sexually aggressive canines, as he journeys around the world to discover the importance of family, friendship, and flavor – finding a new taste for adventure and earning the coveted coffee mug title of World’s Best Lover.

See? Can’t even be serious in the trailer write-up.
(Sidebar: How did Josh Brolin land the role of Thanos AND this Cable role?? Those are some huge Marvel characters; with a huge chasm between them in the Universe.)
Avengers: Infinity War (Trailer)
Can’t wait for next Summer. This is supposed to be the Grand finale linking many of the Marvel films & characters all together. Check out more about the movie & clues after the jump…
Doctor Strange (Trailer)
Lotta buzz over a lot of trailers dropped off at Comic Con, as is always the case. Don’t let this one slip by you. Marvel is already winning in theaters, but this trailer teases a comic storyline never brought to the big screen. “Doctor Strange” got a mention as a serious threat to Hydra in Captain America: The Winter Soldier, but to seriously roll the dice and make a whole film on the Stephen Strange character?
Yeah. Marvel’s doing it… BIG!
Captain America: Civil War (Trailer #2)
You know that dude that does the talkovers for the movies in theaters, always cool, always starting with, “In a world…” Well f#ck that cool sh!t. Even that dude is gonna watch this 2nd trailer for “Captain America: Civil War” and lose his damned mind! For real, dude would dump the script and lead with, “OHHHHH SH!T! OHHHHH SH!T!! OOOHHHHHHH SHHHHEEEEIIIT!”
The conflict ignites in a brand-new trailer for Marvel’s “Captain America: Civil War,” hitting theaters May 6!
And you will holler, too, right at, “Hey everyone.” Guaran-damn-teed!! Hurry up May 2016. Hurry!
X-Men: Apocalypse (Trailer)
If you’ve kept up with the Marvel over the years then you’d probably come to the same conclusion as I have that the actor Oscar Isaac portraying the villain “Apocalypse” doesn’t, by all appearances, seem like the proper person for the role. However the actress Alexandra Shipp who will play “Storm” in the film does appear to look the part. Just my two cents. We all know the keys to make the film successful is the acting, direction, & the script. We’ll see this summer. I’m looking forward to Memorial Day weekend when X-Men: Apocalypse is in theaters on May 27th, 2016.
“Following the critically acclaimed global smash hit X-Men: Days of Future Past, director Bryan Singer returns with X-MEN: APOCALYPSE. Since the dawn of civilization, he was worshipped as a god. Apocalypse, the first and most powerful mutant from Marvel’s X-Men universe, amassed the powers of many other mutants, becoming immortal and invincible. Upon awakening after thousands of years, he is disillusioned with the world as he finds it and recruits a team of powerful mutants, including a disheartened Magneto (Michael Fassbender), to cleanse mankind and create a new world order, over which he will reign. As the fate of the Earth hangs in the balance, Raven (Jennifer Lawrence) with the help of Professor X (James McAvoy) must lead a team of young X-Men to stop their greatest nemesis and save mankind from complete destruction.”
Captain America: Civil War (Trailer)
Okay, Cap and Falcon found Bucky… not The Winter Soldier… good ol’ Bucky! So, all’s well and we can hug and go home right? Aw hell naw. All HELL is about to break loose! Can you say love at first sight? The Captain America side of the Marvel Universe movies has always put incredible stories and action up on the big screen, and it looks like this “Civil War” installment will not disappoint on that front! Cap and Iron Man going IN… on each other? War! And is that Black Panther?? RAW!
Check out the trailer above. And do not make ANY other plans for May 6, 2016.
Decoding Marvel: All The X-Men Explained In One Clip (Video)

The Shadow League Gets Some Screen Time with Anthony Mackie Discussing His Role as ‘The Falcon’ In “Captain America: The Winter Soldier” (Video)
The second, action-packed installment of the Captain America series, “Captain America: The Winter Soldier,” stars Chris Evans (Captain America), Scarlett Johansson (Black Widow), Samuel L. Jackson (Nick Fury) and Robert Redford (Alexander Pierce). In this exclusive video interview with The Shadow League, Anthony Mackie (playing Marvel’s first Black superhero, Falcon) discusses working with Jackson, Redford, and the tireless work and payoff that will come in simply seeing little boys dressed as Falcon for Halloween.
Updating the original comic book storyline of Falcon’s Harlem hustler roots, in this screen version Mackie is a standout DC soldier. Thirsty and hungry for something new, he finds himself pulled into Captain America’s cavalry while on the run from the super assassin, Winter Soldier.

Thor: The Dark World (Trailer)
The comic-to-movie trend continues with the sequel to Marvel’s “Thor” – starring Chris Hemsworth, Natalie Portman, Tom Hiddleston and Christopher Eccleston.
‘Thor fights to restore order across the cosmos…but an ancient race led by the vengeful Malekith returns to plunge the universe back into darkness. Faced with an enemy that even Odin and Asgard cannot withstand, Thor must embark on his most perilous and personal journey yet, one that will reunite him with Jane Foster and force him to sacrifice everything to save us all.’

The Wolverine (Trailer)
The Wolverine has always been one of my favorite Marvel characters & I’m glad they are keeping the film franchise going with Hugh Jackman playing the lead. I’m definitely looking forward to July 26th as Marvel films delve more & more into the story of one of their most popular characters……
