It’s been a while since my last review but I had a few things I wanted to say about this movie. Let me start by saying that I really enjoyed it and thought it was a good movie. Anne Hathaway was excellent as Selina Kyle and could have had more time on screen. Tom Hardy’s performance as Bane was superb. As a matter of fact all the actin performances were great. Though it was funny how Michael Caine would cry and walk off at the end of every scene, but he was still great. The writing was good and Nolan’s …

Quick Review: Dark Knight Rises
Quick Review: All-Star Superman
All-Star Superman is the 10th movie in the DC Universe Animated Original Movies line. It’s based on a 12-issue series of the same name written by comic book fanboy favorite Grant Morrison. The previous movies include, Superman: Doomsday, Batman: Gotham Knight, Green Lantern: First Flight, Superman/Batman: Public Enemies, and Batman: Under the Red Hood. Basically, the story is about Superman’s impending death due to some maneuvering by Lex Luthor and how Superman/Clark Kent is dealing with it. Sounds like that could be a potentially great story.
Let me start by saying that of the previous 9 releases, I liked …
Idris Elba Talks Thor

Idris Elba who is most known for his role as Stringer Bell in The Wire is currently starring in Takers, a heist film opening this weekend. He talked about Takers and Thor in USA Weekend. Here is an excerpt from that interview:

What was the coolest part?
Just the bigness of the show. It’s so epic, these huge sets were just amazing …
Welcome back, Cloak and Dagger
It been a while but Cloak and Dagger are back this week. Its only a 5 issue run but you take what you can get. Cloak and Dagger are children of the 80′s premiering in Spectacular Spider-Man #64 (1982). They have always had a strong cult following but not enough to keep a series going for a extended run (I don’t think they have ever made it past 20 issues). Also you may want to check out the trade Child of Darkness, Child of Light on Amazon or the the …
