The Avenger Initiative: Some Assembly Required
We look back at what got us to The Avengers movie today, starting back in 2008.
Wrath of the Titans
Who knew that the 2010 remake of Clash of the Titans would fare so well at the box office that a sequel was warranted? Medusa is dead, the Kraken has been released, and yet Perseus still has more to do? Wrath of the Titans picks up about 10 years after the first movie. Perseus is [...]
Mission: Impossible – Ghost Protocol
Is this the best Mission yet? A lot of people don’t think so, but I’d have to say that it far outdoes any of the previous movies by a pretty wide margin.

Jason Bourne is dead.
It seems that my favourite trilogy of all time is going to remain just that: a trilogy. And surprisingly enough, I’m fine with it. In a recent interview about his upcoming (no doubt Bourne-inspired) film Green Zone, when asked if there would be another Bourne movie, Matt Damon flatly spoke: “No”. As the raving fan [...]
