Batman (1989) – Well given my reviews of all the Spider-Man movies a few weeks ago it should really be no surprise that with The Dark Knight Rises being all anyone’s talking about lately that I would go back to the start of the Batman franchise. Okay, technically not all the way back to the start. … Continue reading →

The Amazing Spider-Man (2012) – Well, it was fifty years ago that Stan Lee and Steve Ditko brought Spider-Man into the world. It was ten years ago that Sam Raimi brought the character to the big screen. It’s only been five years since Spider-Man 3 stank up cinemas and some say that’s far too soon … Continue reading →

Spider-Man 2 (2004) – There is no more ridiculous blanket statement that permeates the world of film snobbery than “sequels suck.” If you say that, you don’t know what the fuck you are talking about. Yeah, many series have a case of diminishing returns as they go on and on, but there are sequels that … Continue reading →

Spider-Man (2002) – Okay, let me start by saying that fuckin’ hate fuckin’ spiders. They terrify the fuck out of me. Also I curse even more than I already fuckin’ do (which is a lot) when talking about the evil little fuckers. That being said, I’ve always liked Spider-Man. Go figure. It probably has a … Continue reading →

The Avengers (2012) – Many many decades ago, Timely Comics decided to take its two most popular comic characters, the Human Torch (the original 1930s robot one, not the Fantastic Four’s Johnny Storm) and Namor the Sub-Mariner, and have them fight each other. Timely (eventually renamed Marvel Comics) really ran with this idea and soon … Continue reading →

Superheroes (2011) – Last year there was a movie (based on a comic book) called Kick-Ass, about an ordinary teenager without any special powers who decides to become a superhero. The movie started fairly “realistically” (he gets beat up, suffers some nerve damage, manages to beat some criminals up, becomes a YouTube celebrity) before venturing … Continue reading →
