Fantastic 4 Trailer Review (COMICS!)

10922667_841218145935517_9056852729112896797_n

Before I even start this review, I should probably let you in on something. Something to help you, the reader, understand where my point of view is coming from. I have never cared for, nor have I ever liked, the Fantastic 4. I’ve read a few of the comics, both Ultimate and Regular universe, and non of them ever really caught my attention. I mean, yea they got some cool abilities. But so do so many other superheroes that I like 10 times more. Honestly, the only other character I like less than the Fantastic 4 is Spider-Man. Yea. I said it, and I’ll say it again. I DON’T LIKE SPIDER-MAN! I’m getting off topic. Nothing new, right?

Anyway, while I may not like F4, It’s become quite obvious lately that many many MANY people do. How do I know this? Because of all the constant hate this new Fantastic 4 reboot has been getting. I mean, fans must really care about F4 to give Fox this much crap about a movie that’s not even out yet, right? ALL ABOARD THE HATE-TRAIN! CHOO CHOO! Next stop…wait! THERE ARE NO STOPS ON THE HATE-TRAIN! CHOO CHOO! I’m….so sorry about that. I have no idea where that came from.

In all seriousness, I don’t really get why there is so much hate for this movie. Or any other movie based on a comic. It’s just getting annoying, you know? I get it. You’re upset, but will this really ruin your life? No. No it won’t. You’re life will be just fine. Why? Well, I shouldn’t have to explain why. I’m getting off topic again. DAMN YOU ADHD! SO! What did I think of this new trailer? It’s alright. To be honest, It’s not exactly the most amazing teaser I’ve ever seen. Actually, it’s kind of generic. It pretty much used the typical CBM teaser formula that you’ve seen many others use. That being said, I still found myself interested in what I saw. Not really loving what I saw, but interested. Curious.

First off, it seems like the film is going for a more sci-fi vibe. And not just any sci-fi vibe, It looks like they are trying to mimic Nolan, Kubrick, and Cronenberg. Not even kidding! You watch the trailer, and You’ll think they jacked actual shots from films directed by all three of those guys. I was waiting for the Monolith to start floating around behind Mr. Fantastic. It actually kind of took me out of the trailer a bit. It’s nice to try and mimic the vibe of someone else’s work, but don’t rip them off! Not that they are blatantly ripping off anyone, it just feels like it. That’s just going too far.

I do, however, like that the trailer does evoke a heavy sci-fi vibe. Something that could really work for Fantastic 4. If done well, of course. One thing I wish they showed more of is the team themselves. You see them pre-powers, but not much as the team itself. Because of the this, the trailer seemed like some random science fiction movie. You wouldn’t have known it was Fantastic 4 until they showed the title. Again, I like that they are making it more of a science fiction movie, but you can’t forget that it’s also a superhero movie. Over all, I’m not really super excited to see Fantastic 4. I am curious about it, though. I really do hope this does well. Just so I can watch all the angry fans start to praise it. As if that’s how they felt the entire time. Anyway, what did YOU think of the Fantastic 4 trailer? Let us know in the comment section below! Also, if you haven’t see the trailer yet, click on the picture above! And, as always, have a nice day!

Marvel Announces Phase 3 of the MCU! (COMICS!)

Phase 3

I know I’m a little late on posting about this, but at least I’m doing it now! Better late than never, right? At least, I think so. Anyway, Marvel has just made a HUGE announcement! Seeing as how phase two of the Marvel Cinematic Universe, or MCU for short, is just about wrapped up, Marvel felt it was time to reveal their plans for phase three. An entire line-up of movies were announced at a big event, and they even showed off a few clips from their next blockbuster event Avengers: Age of Ultron. Now, this is exciting to hear. However, I’m just not as excited as I probably should be. It’s kind of strange, but I’m just not leaping off my couch right away. I mean, there are a few titles I’m over the moon about. One of those being Captain Marvel. I really love Carol Danvers, as well as her most recent comic book adventures, so It’s exciting to see her getting a film soon. All Marvel has to do now is cast the right actress AKA Katee Sackhoff. Honestly, there really isn’t another perfect choice than Sackhoff. Lets get real, people!

Other than that, I’m just not pumped up about this. I mean, I feel like it’s a bit of overkill. I think I have Marvel fatigue, man! It’s just Marvel Marvel Marvel all the time, and It’s becoming over whelming. Also, we just got a trailer for Age of Ultron! Why are we getting a teaser trailer for Avengers 3? Can’t we just focus on that as apposed to what’s coming in four years? You know, I might not even see those movies in 2018 because the fatigue will have grown and festered inside me. Okay that sounded kind of gross. I’m very sorry about that. Obviously, I’m going to be in the minority on this. Especially with the loads of fans excited to see these movies, but It just seems like a bit much. Again, this is probably just me.

Truthfully, It is exciting as hell to see that there will be movies based on characters we’ve never seen on the big screen before. Same goes to DC and Warner Bros. They announced an entire line-up a while ago, and that was very exciting. Wonder Woman, Aquaman, Cyborg, The Flash, Shazam, and more are finally coming to the theater! At the end of the day, I’ll probably see these new Marvel films. Hopefully I’ll like them, and leave the theater a happy nerd. That’s what I hope for, ultimately. However, it probably won’t change the way I feel. Anyway, let us know what your most excited about with these phase three films! Also, as a special treat, if you click on the image you’ll be taken to a clip/trailer combo for Avengers: Age of Ultron! Trust me when I say this, It’s a pretty rad video!

Man of Steel Trailer #2 Review!!! (COMICS!)

It’s a bird! It’s a plane! It’s…..Crap what’s the last part of that quote?

Hello fellow Kryptonian survivors! This is Ran-Ze, aka Richard, coming to you live from the bottle city of Kandor! So, some of you might not know this about me. I, Richard Lee Purnell, am a Massive Superman fanboy! I know you don’t hear Batman fan’s proclaim this a lot, but it’s 110% the truth. Also, I’m a massive fan of this new Man of Steel trailer! Honestly, I really liked the teaser that was released over the summer. I know most fans didn’t dig the teaser, but I was feeling it, man! I loved the feel of it. It looked like they were going for a grounded approach to the character. This new trailer shows that as well, but It also shows the film is going to be equally epic!

Based on what this new trailer shows, this is going to be the ultimate Superman movie! I was so excited by this new trailer, that I made an entire review on it! To watch it, click on the image above! By the way, the image above is the beginning of my favorite scene in the trailer! Bone chilling, man! Also, to catch more wicked good vids and episodes of COMICS!, subscribe to Channel23hahaha on Youtube! I’d really appreciate it! Now, before I depart, I wanted to leave you with this awesome image from an upcoming Superman comic, possibly called Man of Steel but with no relation to the film, being written by my favorite comic writer Scott Snyder. Also, the artist on the series is the legend himself…Jim freaking Lee! If you aren’t aware of Jim Lee’s art, just look at the image below. It, alone, describes his legendary status, I’d say:

Evil Dead (2013) Trailer Review!

Wait….This has nothing to do with comic books? Why am I writing this?

So, when folks hear the word remake these days, the words “not again” is groaned in reply. It’s true that we’ve had an insane amount of remakes these past few years, and we’ve got more to come. Plus, the majority of these remakes released are based upon some of the biggest horror films ever made. You name it, it’s probably been remade. Friday the 13th, A Nightmare on Elm Street, Halloween, Dracula, Frankenstein, Last House on the Left, Psycho, Texas Chainsaw Massacre, the list goes on and on. Now, we have a new horror classic to add to the remake list: Evil Dead.

However, the horror remake list is slightly divided. Some horror remakes are actually not that bad. While others do nothing but give the middle finger to the original film and it’s many fans. I’m looking at you, Halloween! Yes…I’m looking straight at you, fother mucker! So, all that being said, where will Evil Dead end up? Well, based on this trailer, the film might actually end up on the good list! Yes, I actually liked this trailer a lot! I’m surprised as all hell that I liked it, but I did! I mean, It’s got the feel of Evil Dead, and It has the look of Evil Dead. Also, the original film makers (Sam Raimi, Bruce Campbell, and Robert Tapert) are heavily involved in this new movie! So, That makes me very excited!

It reminds me of when I made a crappy short called Specter Quest. Eventually, I made a better version that captured my original vision perfectly! That seems to be the reason Raimi and company, along with director and co-writer of this remake, Fede Alvarez, want to make this version. Well, that’s what Bruce Campbell said when He told me, and a few other press peeps, about the remake during the New York Comic Con. When they made the original, Raimi and Campbell looked to make a scary film. However, It ended up being more comedic and cheesy because of the low budget effects, and “melodramatic dialog delivered by bad actors” as Bruce Campbell said. ha-ha!

Fun fact, by the way, I’d never seen the original Evil Dead film until after I did the press round table for the remake. When I arrived back in Ohio, I immediately drove to Best Buy, purchased the original on Blu-Ray, and loved every second of it. It was such a fun film, but I didn’t really find it funny. It was pretty bloody, and cheesy, but I didn’t really find it all that funny. I mean, how can you find raping trees funny? I guess this world is full of sick sick people.

Anyways, so even though I liked the trailer, there were some stuff that bugged me. First of all, and this might just be me, but I loved the fact the original film didn’t feature crazy bad language. Not a single f-bomb was dropped. A few hells and damns sure, but no ships or trucks at all. This new film has an f-bomb dropped in the trailer! I just hope it’s not over used, like most horror remakes.

Second, the original’s crazy violence was fun because of the low budget effects. With this new version and it’s bigger budget, I fear the violence might come off as torture porn. Bruce Campbell spoke a bit on torture porn at NYCC, and how he felt it was just bad film making. I couldn’t agree with him more. I’ve always been incredibly against torture porn because it is just bad film making. He also said this new film doesn’t feature a single frame of torture porn in it.

Which would imply that the film cares about the story, and the violence is just icing on the cake. So, I hope that is the case with this version of Evil Dead. In the end, I was rather impressed with this trailer, and I am excited to see the final product. I just hope that I’m as impressed with the actual film when it’s released next year. If you haven’t seen the trailer yet, click on the picture above! I should warn you, though…It’s not for the faint of heart!

Hey Hey Hey! This is FAT RICHARD, here! Today, I bring you a quick video review of a highly anticipated trailer for the first film in Phase 2 of the MCU (Marvel Cinematic Universe): Iron Man 3!
