Daredevil Season 2: Thoughts and Trailer

Netflix has released their second full length trailer for their upcoming season of Daredevil. First trailer after the jump.
--

Now I'm not complaining about having Elektra or the Punisher in this season, as I think both characters are really strong additions. My only concern is; is it too much too soon? I trust Netflix with Marvel properties. Jessica Jones went from no name to main stage pretty quickly and we can't pretend it wasn't helped by the uncensored world of Netflix storytelling. We got action, we got pain and overall, the stories are based in a lot more realism than the Marvel movies.

Yes I know, suspension of disbelief is important, but when you do such a good job with Jessica Jones, and we barely see her use her powers, it proves a good story can be told in the right way. I didn't have to see her use her powers and when she finally does in the end, it was almost jarring to me. 

Daredevil, Elektra and Punisher don't really have powers to speak of, they just happen to be at peak performance and specialists in their respective combat styles. Which is why I'm concerned about two major players being added to the story. If Netflix is staying true to their format, we can expect 13 episodes... That means 13 episodes to introduce Elektra, Punisher, The Hand, deal with the law practice and the fallout from last season. All this to say... either we are getting the high, intense and fast paced telling of these tales or unfortunately poor ones.

Production to begin on "Justice League" in April




"Justice League Part One" will begin filming April 11. According to "Entertainment Weekly", the news comes from both director Zack Snyder and Warner Bros. Snyder is currently in the UK preparing to start production, which will begin just a few weeks after the release of "Batman V Superman: Dawn of Justice." "Wonder Woman" is also currently filming in the UK.

 “The idea that we could begin to boot up a Justice League concept was a cool thing,” Snyder told EW. "It was a little bit of an ‘about time’ moment, and I don’t blame [the studio] for feeling that way, because it’s a long time coming. But I do feel like it’s a little bit of a creative hurdle. It seems like an easy thing to do at first glance, the idea that, ‘Oh, we just get the rest of the superheroes in there.’ But you have to [establish] a world where they can exist.” 

"Justice League" arrives in theaters on November 17, 2017.

S̶u̶p̶e̶r̶ Black Superheroes: Rising from the Underground

     Guess who? This black superhero has been around for 50 years, but only 3 black men have ever written him. Give up? The answer is...Black Panther. The point is, there is lack of genuine input from people of colour in writing about...well, POC in comics.

Kurt Russell to play Star-Lord's SuperDad

If you're an 80s kid, Kurt Russell has been a pretty steady part of your cinematic life. His acting career dates back to the mid-sixties where he was a child actor, even starring in his own show. He, later on, moved into movies (if you got the Superdad reference; you are a true movie geek) and by the 80s he was a household name starring in Escape from New York, The Thing and one of his most well known films; Big Trouble in Little China

Todd McFarlane completes new Spawn screenplay

In a world where remakes are a dime a dozen, and quite frankly most are worth less than a dime, we get a new one spawned (pun intended) on us today. The cult classic Spawn, one of my favorite black comic book characters growing up aside from Blade, seems to be en route to getting a silver screen re-adaptation. 

Trailer for Bastille Day Equals Foreign Box Offices are ready Black Leads

The net has been saying that Idris Elba should take over as the new Bond, and don't get me wrong, as amazing as he would be, I've been saying since day one that we don't need a black Bond. We simply need to depict a more diverse spy world as a whole. StudioCanal heard the voice of those who want to see more POC (people of colour) and produced their soon to be released thriller; Bastille Day.`

Deadpool: The Palate Cleanser

 
It seems like late January or February is becoming a good time slot for rated R movies based on comic books. Last year was one of the best spy movies of 2015, Kingsman:The Secret Service. This year, Deadpool

In Honour of Dilla

He inspired some of the best. Heck he's inspired some of the worst, but all of us that are inspired by Dilla, are just trying our best at doing what he did better than the rest... loving music.
Every beat, every sample, every sound and mix was a careful dedication to music and music lovers.
So today on his birthday, take a moment (or in this case an hour) and remember the late and forever great J Dilla with a mix from another one of the most respected music lovers; ?uestlove.
