MOVIES & TV: MY UNPOPULAR OPINIONS VOL. I...(READ MORE)

SQWAD
My oldest daughter and I went to see "Suicide Squad" on Sunday. Thought that it was going to be a rough day after my lady let it slip to my youngest that we were going to see a "Harley Quinn" movie. It was a slip of mind saying it that way, and lead to a small freak out. Why? Well, the baby of our SQWAD is named Harleigh Quinn. And even with the femme form of the first name, she is a blonde haired, blue eyed, super smart, and just as strong version of the character. Had to kind of lie to her, saying it is "Suicide Squad" and not "Harley Quinn". Luckily, she is only 3 (going on 4 this Halloween) and bought it...(READ MORE)

JUSTICE LEAGUE ON TV POSSIBLE NOW?
It was reported that the version of the Suicide Squad on televisions "Arrow" was scrapped due to the upcoming live action version. So, it was likely that a t.v. version of DC Comics ultimate team of superheroes, Justice League, was not going to happen. However, now we see "Supergirl" moving to the CW and joining "Arrow", "The Flash", and "Legends Of Tomorrow" ("iZombie" too but separate universe). Not only that, she is bringing one of...(READ MORE)

BATFLECK'S UNIVERSE
There is at least one Batman solo movie in the works, hopefully more as to cover his massive rogues gallery. Sure, Ben Affleck will bring the goddamn Batman to the upcoming "Suicide Squad", but will that be the only interaction we will see between Bats and The Joker, Harley Quinn, and even Killer Croc? Some may not want another Batman V Joker film, but I am not one of them. Especially given that there is also a Harley Quinn to add to the mix this time around via Margot Robbie. But, I would also like to see more, and more characters involved as well. Both returning and debuting. And they would be...(READ MORE)

SUICIDE SQUAD OFFICIAL TRAILER

COMIC-CON HAD A PRETTY MASSIVE DAY
Things being revealed at San Diego Comic-Con is almost traditional, this year the live action comic book worlds joined Star Wars Ep. VII The Force Awakens in stealing the spotlight today. Perhaps the reason why Marvel Studios opted to not really join in, given the size of reveals and what not from FOX owned titles Deadpool, X-Men: Apocalypse, and Fantastic 4. And of course there was the Batman V Superman: Dawn Of Justice trailer being revealed (which you can find HERE), and the television series (Arrow, The Flash, Legends Of Tomorrow, Supergirl, and Gotham) panels and news...(READ MORE)

BATMAN V SUPERMAN: DAWN OF JUSTICE TRAILER

COMIC-CON HARD TO BEAT THIS YEAR
San Diego Comic-Con 2015 is here, and there is plenty to see. Most notably the Batman V Superman: Dawn Of Justice trailer (which you can find in the article). Weekend isn't over yet either, and there will be more to come...(READ MORE)

BATFLECK SET FOR SOLO VENTURE
It isn't in the "news" category, as it was expected as Ben Affleck had signed on for multiple films. To star and direct. For some, the initial thought might have been him involved with only Batman V Superman: Dawn Of Justice, and the "Justice League" follow-ups. It was just hard to imagine DC Comics and WB finally creating and expanding a movieverse, and not including the goddamn Batman...(READ MORE)

DVR/PVR GETTING A WORKOUT
Sure, everyone's DVR/PVR has been used for anything and everything they like. But, for the "comic book" centric, it is about to get bigger. Of course, it depends on peoples preferences as always. However, starting next season there is an abundance to pick from and thus far, everything has been top notch or close to it....(READ MORE)

WHEN WILL LANTERNS BEGIN TO APPEAR?
During the "Arrow/Flash" crossover earlier in the season, there was a very clear reference to the emotional spectrum. As most fans are aware, Latnerns of all colors get their powers from the spectrum. That episode even had a meta-human who used "rage" as his weapon. Although not an outright "Red Lantern", coupled with the spectrum reference it almost "opens the door" for there to be one...(READ MORE)

THE JOKER NOT GETTING MAD LOVE?
If not for the internet, we wouldn't get to see anything beyond what would be shown on Entertainment Tonight (or something like that). But then, if not for the internet we wouldn't be exposed to so much hate. Unjustified most of the time. There was the Batfleck casting drama, Wonder Woman not being "big enough" type bullshlacka, and this time around even a clown can't get no love...(READ MORE)

NGN's ALL-TIME FAVORITE COMIC BOOK CHARACTERS ON THE BIG AND SMALL SCREENS


Everyone has their own favorites, whether it is the characters, the actors who played them, or a combination the the two. Some characters have only been portrayed by one actor/actress, while the others have had different people take the helm. But, here is a list of favorite characters from both movie and television shows of the comic book genre...(READ MORE)

DC COMICS TV-VERSE, WHO STILL NEEDS TO BE IN IT
With the movieverse (for DC Comics, as well as with Marvel), we focused slightly more on who has and is scheduled to appear on the big screen. Unlike with the movieverse, where everything is really still in the infancy stage, the "tv-verse" is new, but much more evolved and bigger. At the present time, there are 2 different worlds on...(READ MORE)
