Encanto has been an absolute hit for Disney and part of the reason for the movie’s success is how different it is from all of the movies that came before it. Encanto subverted expectations and tropes, provided a whole new setting for a Disney animated feature, had the first protagonist with glasses, dropped the whole romantic plot line and opted to go with a softer ensemble beat instead of melodical power ballads. But just because Encanto is different in many ways to other Disney movies, doesn’t mean it also doesn’t have similarities, and in many ways Encanto is part of a current trend with the films that the House of Mouse are pumping out. ...

WIth characters like seem like it with characters like Batman, Superman, and Wonder Woman grabbing all the attention as the Holy Trinity of DC Comics, but it could be argued that of all the members of the Justice League, the affable and well meaning Barry Allen, the Flash, might be the most important character in DC Comicis and the DC Extended Universe. All the way back in 1961 Barry Allen’s Flash introduced the concept of the multiverse and comic book and superhero stories have never been the same. For all the problems that being able to retell or reset stories in another universe solved, it brought with it its own complexities so it’s only fitting that it would be the Flash that would come along and clean up the multiverse mess…mostly by making an even bigger mess and having to clean that up. That’s the premise behind Flashpoint that set up the New 52 company wide relaunch of the DC titles. That story played out on the CW as part of the Arrowverse but now it’s bringing its reset magic to the big screen as movie Flash takes a crack and running to the past to save his mom and exonerate his dad. Of course with disastrous consequences. Are there any other kind? We’ll explore what the Flash has done to and for the multiverse and how that is set up to reshape the DC Universe and the ripples that will be felt in every movie after it. Who are you looking forward to seeing in the upcoming Flash? Let us know in the comments and while you’re there be sure to like and subscribe for the latest videos in your inbox....

Peacemaker’s first season has finally wrapped with some explosive set up for the future so let’s get into it. In this video we’re going over the ending, what it could potentially mean for the broader DCEU and what could happen in the recently confirmed season 2. Because Peacemaker doesn’t have a lot to draw from, which is probably one reason why James Gunn came up with the whole Butterfly thing to give Peacemaker a threat that can be totally his own, most likely season 2 will have even more original character’s and plotlines. With the rumors of the DCEU getting rebooted through all the time travel shenanigans of the Flash movie, Peacemaker might not even be in the same universe next time we see him so there’s a lot of possibilities for potential team ups and crossovers if that’s the direction they want to go in....

We’re not done with zombies yet. The revival of the classic movie monster is going strong, like a horde of unstoppable zombies in fact with another hit zombie drama this time coming out of Korea. Hot on the heels of the runaway success of the surrealistic Squid Game audiences have been watching the adventures of private school students as they fight off the zombie hordes without any adult supervision. Romances are romanced, rivalries are rivaled, undead people eat soon to be dead people, scientists stare at data wondering if they can do anything about it all, and of course buckets and buckets of bloody gore. The survival drama that’s running justifying your Netflix subscription sustains the stress of running and waiting for rescue and having rescue denied for 12 pulse pounding episodes. What does it take to keep the tension high as well as have all the human adolescent drama that goes with being a teenager even when your former classmates want to put you on the menu? The series based on a webtoon has been carefully guided by its director Lee J. Q. who has had some specific ideas about how to maintain the realism in a situation that is inherently unrealistic…we hope. From casting actors so new that they haven’t quit their day jobs yet to filming a massive set piece with dozens of actors in one take a lot of thought went into this latest addition of the undead genre. What was your favorite part of the series? Let us know in the comments and while you’re there be sure to like and subscribe for the latest in your inbox.... Read More إقرأ المزيد | Share it now!

With Matthew Reeves and Robert Pattinson’s The Batman approaching its March 4th 2022 release date, it’s time to dig into the secrets of all the gadgets the Dark Knight is hiding in that bottomless utility belt. Yes, whether it’s batropes, grapple guns, batarangs, smoke capsules, gas pellets, explosives, tasers, and much much (MUCH) more, gadgets are part of what makes the Caped Crusader great, and why, even after Batmen like Michael Keaton, Val Kilmer, George Clooney, Christian Bale, Kevin Conroy, and others, we still can’t wait for Robert Pattinson to don the batsuit....

Coming from the hilarious (and sometimes disturbing) mind of James Gunn, it is no surprise that the Peacemaker series is full of laughs, gore, great music, kooky ensemble characters, heart and references to the comic books and other movies in general. In fact there are so many references to just the comic books alone that there is plenty of material to make a video on just all the Easter Eggs and call backs to DC and the DCEU. So, that’s exactly what we did!... Read More إقرأ المزيد | Share it now!

Peacemaker has been a standout hit and to celebrate what I hope is a serious change with the DCEU, we’re making a different type of video about what makes it so different from DC’s other projects so spoilers if you haven’t caught up to at least episode 7.
The only thing that we can hopefully say for sure is that the positive press surrounding Peacemaker and The Suicide Squad since theyre so similar shows that DC is making better choices when it comes to the direction they’re going in. The Flash is pretty iffy to me, The Batman isn’t in the DCEU so it doesn’t count but Black Adam has both Hawkman and Dr. Fate in it which is dope but again, comes back to the problem we just talked out but… and this is a big but… maybe just maybe they won’t make the same mistakes…...

Get out your frame by frame examinations and open up your Marvel sourcebooks, the next chapter of the Marvel Cinematic Universe has dropped a trailer and some tv spots and it’s a cornucopia of easter eggs and hints that we’ve been in the shared universe this whole time. The unmistakable voice of Sir Patrick Stewart has upended the entire idea of canon in the MCU and that’s only the beginning of the implications in the trailer. It also comes down to why Sir Patrick is there and who his friends are. Marvel’s ultimate superband of superheroes, the ones brought together to prevent major Earth threatening events and instead either making them worse or causing them outright appears ready to set Earth 199999s Doctor Strange right, including it appears a total of four different versions of the Bleeker Street Magician to contend with from undead to slick hair to power hungry. Not only has the trailer inferred that every Marvel movie ever is canon to the multiverse, it has reached into the animated world as well with Sinister Strange joining super soldier Peggy Carter and the undead. A Marvel of either the Danvers or Rambeau variety will be taking on a Scarlet Witch who is having none of it. The second Strange movie might even reach into franchises that never were, with rumors of a Tom Cruise Tony Stark. WIth hints of the other reality ripping entity the TVA it’s safe to say that the MCU will never be the same again. Even the Merc with the Mouth appears to be part of the growing slate of characters.
