As a comic book fan and reader, I tend to set my standards high, especially for DC because those are the comics I buy. But ever since The Dark Knight, there hasn’t been a decent DC film. Until now. Personally, they either miss the mark on understanding the characters (Harley Quinn being the exception) or lack the humor needed to keep the audience entertained between all the drama and darkness.

Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice Starring Ben Affleck, Henry Cavill, Gal Gadot, Jeremy Irons, Amy Adams and Jesse Eisenberg Warner Bros. Pictures Image Credit: IMDB
As the title declares, this movie has two enormously famous superheroes, and we’re led to believe Justice will Dawn as a result of them facing off. But with a mouthful of a title, we have a little trouble figuring out exactly what kind of movie Batman v. Superman: Dawn of Justice is trying to be. On the surface, it’s a long one.

By: Cynthia Ayala Wonder Girl is awesome. At least she is now. Personally, I never liked her before the reboot. Okay, that’s being nice, she annoyed the heck out of me and just really got under my skin. She had none of the spunk or grace Donna Troy or Diana and always doubted herself. Always. Occasionally is fair and realistic, but for a leader, it … Continue reading Wonder Girl – New and Improved – DC Comics News
By: Cynthia A. There was a lot of controversy over this show around the fact that Blair Underwood is not a paraplegic. I don’t know why this show was isolated from other shows that do that, like Glee for instance. That really bothers me that a lot of people took immense offense to it and singled out this show. Personal feelings aside, if you disagree … Continue reading Ironside Cancelled
By: Cynthia A. So there has been many rumors about the King of Atlantis getting his own movie, especially after the success of the Batman Trilogy and Man of Steel and Warner Bros and Disney planon milking the superhero franchise for all it’s worth as they continue to compete against Marvel Studios which is rocking the film franchise right now. But is a Aquaman movie … Continue reading Aquaman movie in the works?
