Deadpool 2 finds its Director
2 hours ago
Our Chimichanga loving Merc with a Mouth has found himself a new director! And I don't know about you, but I am super hyped!
No more then a month ago it was reported that Tim Miller, the director of the long awaited, financially and critically successful Deadpool film had exited the much anticipated sequel. Rumors swirled about why the director and the project split ways, with the official word being creative differences. Whether it was the casting of Cable, or story, we had to move forward without Miller. We didn't fear too much knowing that this project is Ryan Reynolds' baby and it would still be in good hands. And it seems those hands have surfaced.
According to THR, the man taking over the directors duties of the sequel will be the rumored John Wick Co-Director David Leitch. Word is that Leitch beat out such prospects as Rupert Sanders »

The Green Lantern Corps May Appear in Justice League
12 hours ago
Will we see a Green Lantern in the upcoming Justice League movie? According to The Wrap, we will. It may not be Hal Jordan, but if their inside information is true, expect to see a green-garbed, Power Ring-wearing corps member pop up during a “key sequence”.
The information we had up until this point indicated that Hal Jordan, Aka the Green Lantern, would not have any part in the 2017 DC/Warner Bros release Justice League. He will not be joining Batman, Wonder Woman, Flash, Cyborg, Aquaman and the soon-to-be-resurrected Superman as a founding member of the iconic team. Many people were disappointed to hear that the emerald-clad hero would be Awol.
However,there is some good news. The Wrap reports that it has unearthed some information saying, “A member of the Green Lantern Corps will be seen in Justice League in a key sequence”.
This is rather vague, and it »

Movie Theaters May Start Charging Higher Prices for Popular Films
13 hours ago
The AMC Theater chain is talking about instituting a variable pricing model for films, which would see the big blockbusters cost more for admission than other releases. The theater chain feels that it’s standard business practice in most industries to charge more for in-demand products, so they are considering bringing that practice to movie theaters.
Get ready for the possibility of dishing out more of your money when you go to the movies. According to the Hollywood Reporter, it could be happening soon. They report that AMC Entertainment CFO Craig Ramsey was speaking at the Mkm Partners Entertainment, Leisure and Technology Conference, when he announced that AMC is seriously considering this idea.
AMC was inspired by two European theater companies they recently acquired--Odeon and Uci--to initiate a model of variable pricing. Ramsey said, “They are further advanced in variable pricing, where tentpole movies are priced-up upon release. That’s »

5 GameCube Games Deserving of an HD Remaster
15 hours ago
Today marks the 15th anniversary of the GameCube's North American launch and while many gamers still feel the tiny console marked the beginning of the end for Nintendo's dominancy, it did give us some great titles worthy of remastered versions for the new generation.
It's hard to believe that it's been 15 years since Nintendo brought out the GameCube to compete with the PS2 and Microsoft's new-fangled machine, the Xbox. Despite it's size, the house of Mario managed to pack in quite a bit of power in the machine, giving us some great games along the way, though the quantity of them seemed to be lacking...
These days, HD remasters from previous generation titles are not uncommon. Hell, Kingdom Hearts has been remastered for Two generations at this point, and fans are gobbling them up. Nintendo has been slower in this area, however, giving us updated versions of some Zelda titles, »

Third Version of Pokemon Sun and Moon Coming to the Nintendo Switch?
18 hours ago
Today sees the launch of Pokemon Sun & Moon games on the 3Ds, but also brings about an intriguing rumor for Pokemon fans that, if true, would finally bring the beloved franchise (in it's traditional RPG form) to the home console. Come inside to learn more!
Since the very first Pokemon games, the developers have always launched multiple versions of the game, two at a time to start (Red and Blue, Gold and Silver, Ruby and Sapphire, etc). On top of that, they've almost always launched a Third game a year later within the same generation that would be something of a "Director's Cut" a year later, which would add new gameplay and story elements (Yellow, Crystal, Diamond). While we didn't end up with Pokemon Z (though evidence points to it being planned, but ultimately scrapped with ideas rolled into future titles), it sounds like Sun & Moon will bring about a »

First Spider-Man: Homecoming Trailer Could Be Attached to Rogue One?
20 hours ago
If you've been anxiously awaiting your first glimpse at the new Spider-Man movie, after his incredible debut in Captain America: Civil War, it looks like your chance is coming up...At least according to a new rumor making the rounds.
With 2016 starting to wind down, movie studios are beginning to give audiences their first glimpses at 2017's biggest films. The last few weeks have been loaded with trailers (Wonder Woman, Kong: Skull Island, Valerian, etc) and I expect the next few weeks to be much the same.
According to a new report from sources over at ComicBook, we can expect to add Spider-Man: Homecoming to the list of trailers on the horizon. While fans in attendance at Sdcc earlier this year got a sneak peek at the upcoming superhero reboot, the rest of the world has seen very little of Sony/Marvel's upcoming release. If the rumor turns out to be true, »

Pokemon Anime Makes the Switch to Disney Xd
21 hours ago
The long running Pokemon anime is set to continue with Sun & Moon, which will see Ash interact with new characters/creatures from the newly launched games of the same name. What's different, however, is that the new series (along with all the previous seasons) will now debut on Disney Xd, along with a new movie. Come inside to learn more and watch the English trailer!
Normally, I don't report on all the changes going on with the Pokemon anime. Despite being a huge fan of the games, I never got into the series, but today's news is a little bit different and something fans of the show will want to know. For as long as I can remember, the Pokemon series was something you could watch on The WB (or CW now) and Cartoon Network. No more!
Disney Xd will be the new home of the Pokemon Anime and movies, »

Focal Point: All Aboard for the Switch!
17 November 2016 1:20 PM, PST
After a long (and what was assumed to be permanent) hiatus, Focal Point is back with an all new comic strip, in which we abandon all pretenses and feel legitimately excited for the Nintendo Switch. Come inside to check it out!
I suppose it's fairly safe to say that I'm a Nintendo fanboy. Since the Nes was my first gaming console/experience, followed by the GameBoy it's a company that I literally grew up with. While I've never shied from criticizing them in their failings over the years, I still feel a good deal of excitement when it comes to any new Nintendo announcements.
I bought the Wii U when it launched and can't say I regret it. It has some serious problems and isn't everything I wanted it to be, but it's still a system I play quite often, especially with the kiddos. That said, I really wanted more »

Last week gave us our first official image of King Kong in all his glory in the upcoming film, Kong: Skull Island. We saw a monster that's at once familiar while markedly different from all modrn incarnations of the creature. Today, we get to see him in action, and it's glorious:
I was pretty much sold on the film since the first amazing trailer, but now the wait feels almost unbearable. What do you guys think of today's new Kong: Skull Island trailer? Are you anxious to see the King's return to the big screen? If all that wasn't enough for you, we also got a »

Paramount Looking to Reboot The Green Hornet
15 November 2016 6:12 PM, PST
Ah the Green Hornet, definitely an underused property. I mean yes we had a remake a few years ago that was okay but luckily there’s people out there that see potential in a reboot.
Okay so was I a fan of the original Green Hornet, nah. I mean the biggest thing for me was that it helped the career of Bruce Lee. And even as a comic reader the times the character has appeared have never been long lasting. What I can admire is that he still has a following of fans that know of the character and that alone shows there’s potential. Well the rights have apparently lapsed and have now been picked up by Paramount and Chernin Entertainment who are looking to make an edgier Green Hornet. Deadline is reporting that Gavin O’Connor (Warrior, The Accountant) looks to reinvigorate the almost 80 year old property.
