The X-Files may return

"The Truth is Out There, Scully..."

News from EW and Slash Film reports that FOX is definitely weighing in a comeback to the 90's Sci-Fi TV Series "The X-Files", with stars David Duchovny and Gillian Anderson up to reprise their roles as Agents Fox Mulder and Dana Scully respectively.

While both actors are currently tied to other shows (like Californication for Duchovny and Hannibal for Anderson), it seems like the studios are in for a revival of the series, which also has two movies already to its name.

Only the future will determine whether we'll see the cases reopened.

Transformers: Age of Extinction has officially opened in theaters worldwide, and it continues the saga Michael Bay started in 2007 that brings Hasbro's Robots in Disguise into the big screen. This new chapter focuses on a very different set of human allies and enemies, but still features Optimus Prime and his heroic Autobots battling the evil Decepticons with the fate of Earth hanging in the balance.

However, if you haven't had a chance to catch up with the first three films of the Bayformers series, then Vulture (via Slash Film) has got you covered with the recap video that explains everything in just three minutes. Give it a go if you need a refresher before seeing the new film in 2D or 3D.

Batman Vs Superman: Ben Affleck calls Daredevil a regret, and won't compare his Batman to Christian Bale's

Many were surprised a few months ago by the announcement that Argo director and actor Ben Affleck had been cast as the new Batman/ Bruce Wayne for Zack Snyder's as of yet untitled "Batman Vs Superman" film that acts as a sequel to this year's Man Of Steel, and a wave of mixed emotion still reverberates around the interwebz over the news.

However, the actor has responded to those reactions, following an interview with Playboy Magazine, which was featured in Latino Review and posted in Slash Film:

"I understand I’m at a disadvantage with the internet. If I thought the result would be another Daredevil, I’d be out there picketing myself. [laughs] Why would I make the movie if I didn’t think it was going to be good and that I can be good in it?"

Speaking on Daredevil, the actor went on to say it was the "Biggest Regret of his career".


"The only movie I actually regret is Daredevil. It just kills me. I love that story, that character, and the fact that it got fucked up the way it did stays with me. Maybe that’s part of the motivation to do Batman."

And while pre-production has begun for the 2015 film, there has yet to be any official stills or footage showing Ben in the Batsuit, or his persona as Billionaire Bruce Wayne. Affleck went on to assure that playing the new Batman is to "redefine him", and "will not compete with the Bale and Chris Nolan Batman but still exists in the Batman canon". This collaborates with rumors that the Batman Affleck will be play will wear a "Black and Grey" color scheme like the comics, and will be a "40 year old plus" hero who encounters Henry Cavill's Superman.

Fan Trailer: Fanmade "Aquaman: The Movie (Fake Trailer)" is something else alright...

Despite a recent resurgence in popularity thanks to the impressive new ongoing series started and being currently written by Geoff Johns, DC Comics' resident water-based superhero Aquaman is often ridiculed for his powers and not given the proper respect by general audiences. All that changed during Peter David's run back in the late 80's, and then the aforementioned run by Johns and reestablishing the superhero identity of Arthur Curry as one of importance and once again making him a founding member of the New 52 incarnation of the Justice League.

Now, filmmaker and YouTube user "NigaHiga" has created something of a response to those who doubt the King of the Seven Seas.

The Expendables 3: Official Press Release reveals full cast and plot synopsis

Looks like Sylvester Stallone, Jason Statham, Jet Li, Arnold Schwarzenegger, and the rest of the gang from the first two Expendables are set to return to heavy duty action next year, along with new cast additions Harrision Ford, Wesley Snipes, Antonio Banderas, and Mel Gibson for one intense and personal adventure with The Expendables 3!

As seen in Slash Film and other movie news sites, Lionsgate and Stallone have released the official press release for the upcoming new sequel as production officially begins this month, revealing who's set to appear (minus Bruce Willis of course), as well as what exactly the plot is and what kind of villain Mel Gibson plays versus Sly's Barney Ross and his ragtag team of Expendables!

The Amazing Spider-Man 2: Entertainment Weekly reveals Spidey and Electro face off

It's the kind of image that shows that things are going to go down in the sequel, and there's plenty more danger to come for Peter Parker and his alter ego, The Amazing Spider-Man, for Marc Webb's next installment in his new Spider-Man film franchise.

Coming straight from the latest issue of Entertainment Weekly and featured by Slash Film, here's the new cover to the July 2013 issue of EW, featuring Andrew Garfield face to face against Jamie Foxx as their alter egos Spider-Man and Electro, in the showdown that'll happen in May next year with The Amazing Spider-Man 2. There's plenty of juicy info being teased for the second installment in Webb's Spidey movie series, and with the SDCC just around the corner, we can expect more things and a possible trailer to come soon as well.

Photos released in prior months have already been leaked online showing Foxx all made up and blue as Electro, but without the effects. This time the EW cover gives us a look at the official complete look, and he's about to square off against Garfield's Spidey, who's all dressed in the new suit debuting in the sequel.

The Amazing Spider-Man 2 swings into conventional and 3D theaters on May 2, 2014.

"Ghost Rider" and "Blade" join "Daredevil" and "The Punisher" back at Marvel Studios

Looks like the "Midnight Sons" are coming back home to Marvel... And join the other "Marvel Knights" in Marvel Studios!

Much like Daredevil and The Punisher now under the control of Marvel Studios after the character's film rights expired in 20th Century Fox and Sony Pictures/ Lionsgate respectively, two more characters can now be added to the list as returning to their home owner and developer - Ghost Rider and Blade.
Those who remember Nicholas Cage's time as the "Spirit of Vengeance" in two movies released by Sony will probably feel redeemed somehow now that the rights to produce a film to the character have returned to Marvel from Sony. New Line Cinema's rights on Blade, famously played by Wesley Snipes in three movies, has also returned to Marvel, and one has to wonder how the Daywalker and Vampire Hunter will fit into the scheme of things now that he's reset back to Marvel's control.

*Update Info:
Ghost Rider's rights reverting back to Marvel were announced in this month's issue of Entertainment Weekly. Blade reverted back in 2011 to Marvel Studios when Chief Creative Officer Joe Quesada made the announcement in SDCC '11. Punisher reverted back in 2010, with the call made by Kevin Feige.

Daredevil of course, reverted back officially last April 23, 2013.

Having these characters back does beg the question how they'll be interpreted in the big screen again since most of them , particularly Ghost Rider, The Punisher, and Blade, have pretty dark tales and violence attached to their characters. Since Disney owns Marvel, we'll find out just how things will work, and if they earn a spot in "Phase 3" of the Marvel Cinematic Universe in the near future.

Wreck-It Ralph: Awesome 60 second live action short film

Wreck-It Ralph has got to be one of my favorite Disney films in recent memory, and it's an admirable achievement for those behind the House of Mouse for combining an endearing story within a video game universe setting. Seeing tributes, nods, and cameo appearances of your favorite characters from such memorable gaming series as Pac-Man, Street Fighter, and Sonic The Hedgehog just hit the spot right on, and relating to the main character Ralph and his quest to become a true "Hero" just proves that even a bad guy has a big heart of gold when he tries to do what's right and important in life.

That being said, this awesome short film recreates the entire Wreck-It Ralph story... In a mere 60 seconds only!
