Second Captain Marvel Trailer Is Here And It’s Kree-mendous (sorry but it was that or another MARVELous pun)
Captain Marvel is back in a second trailer – as is the sweet old tram lady who Carol Danvers whacked in Trailer 1. And it turns out she was right to do so as sweet old tram lady is a Skrull, and packs quite the return kick. Seriously, if you’re that fit at 80 you have… Second Captain Marvel Trailer Is Here And It’s Kree-mendous (sorry but it was that or another MARVELous pun) Read More
Train Like An Avenger – Marvel Avengers S.T.A.T.I.O.N. Is Now Open At Excel London!
We had a blast training to be agents of Avengers S.T.A.T.I.O.N. at ExCel London recently, though according to my 9 year old, I was embarrassingly bad at everything. THAT’S MY ACTUAL JOB, KID! Marvel’s Avengers S.T.A.T.I.O.N. has now opened to the public – with a huge collection of Avengers movie-based props and interactive technology.

First Captain Marvel Trailer – Old Ladies, Don’t Get On Her Bad Side!
Yes a sweet old woman has really pissed Captain Marvel off. So much so that the superhero punches her on a train. Only she’s not really a sweet little old lady, but almost certainly a Skrull, a shape-shifting villain. Or maybe she is just a sweet little old lady and Carol is still cross about… First Captain Marvel Trailer – Old Ladies, Don’t Get On Her Bad Side! Read More
Ant-Man And The Wasp 3.5 stars
Scott Lang – Ant-Man, father, and according to the trophy his daughter gave him, World’s Greatest Grandma – is only a few days away from the end of his two-year house arrest after his breaking of the Sokovia Accords. So it’s unsurprising he’ll end up entangled in a plot that requires him to be anywhere… Ant-Man And The Wasp Read More
Second Venom Trailer Shows Job-Sharing CAN Work
The new trailer for Venom is out, though probably best not to watch if you’re a germ-obsessed lickophobe. (Otherwise grab your hand sanitiser and check it out below, along with the first trailer in case you missed it.) Venom stars Tom Hardy as journalist Eddie Brock, who is infected with a symbiote. It’s a creature… Second Venom Trailer Shows Job-Sharing CAN Work Read More
Avengers: Infinity War 4 stars
I enjoyed Avengers: Infinity War, despite or perhaps because I wasn’t always sure what was going on. A familiar superhero problem for me, though at least this time I spotted Stan Lee. The movie is fantastic fun, a ballsy blast, though for me mostly emotionally unengaging. Admittedly I’m not that invested in superheroes, but also so… Avengers: Infinity War Read More
THE FINAL Avengers: Infinity War Trailer Is Here…
…and with so much Hollywood Royalty on display, I hope Marvel Studios makes them all travel in separate planes, just in case. The Avengers are pitted against Thanos (Josh Brolin), who wants to wipe out half the universe – depending which half, Thanos, I could be with you on this. And if he gets holds… THE FINAL Avengers: Infinity War Trailer Is Here… Read More
Black Panther 4.5 stars
A popular prince returning home to claim his throne after the death of a much-loved monarch is a chance to use the resultant outpouring of goodwill, and sheer spectacle, to bring a country closer together. But it’s also a time of disruption, when nations are most vulnerable; as CIA man Everett Ross points out later,… Black Panther Read More
Ant-Man & The Wasp Trailer: Insert “Gets You Buzzing” Joke Here (Keep It Clean, Please)
“Hold on. You gave her wings?” asks Scott Lang. “And blasters” replies Hank Pym. “So I take it you didn’t have that tech available for me?” “No, I did.” The trailer for Ant-Man And The Wasp, sequel to 2015’s Marvel Studios’ hit Ant-Man, is here – featuring Paul Rudd as Scott Lang / Ant-Man, Evangeline… Ant-Man & The Wasp Trailer: Insert “Gets You Buzzing” Joke Here (Keep It Clean, Please) Read More
The Avengers: Infinity War Trailer Is Here & I’ve Got A New Moustache
*** FINAL Avengers: Infinity War trailer is up now *** Not literally me. No, I take medication to prevent that. But this year has been the YEAR of the movie ‘tache what with Mindhorn, The Dream, Poirot, and Superman’s invisible one in Justice League. So it’s great to find a new moustache, stuck to Chris… The Avengers: Infinity War Trailer Is Here & I’ve Got A New Moustache Read More
