A bounty hunter zips through the sky with his jet pack. A dark lord awaits her prey from the core of a dying planet.

The Suicide Squad: James Gunn Teases Starro Is ‘Only One of the Villains’

New DVD release, , , , ,
They’re not coy about it in The Suicide Squad marketing. As one of Amanda Waller’s underlings screams with utter joy in trailer, “Oh my God, we’ve got a freaking kaiju up in this shit!” Yep. The apparent lead villain of James Gunn’s wild reimagining of DC’s supervillain team is Starro: a Godzilla-sized alien starfish how has dreams on world domination. That makes sense. When we sat down to speak with Gunn last month, we brought up the character and just why the filmmaker felt so endeared to this creature that he wanted to see Starro go head to head with…

New DVD release, ,
This article contains spoilers for various parts of the Star Trek franchise. Last fall, airing just a few weeks apart, both Star Trek and Star Wars debuted season premieres of new streaming TV episodes in which the heroes of each show had to fight a giant, legless worm-monster. In Star Trek: Discovery’s “That Hope Is You Part 1,” it was the deadly Tranceworm, while The Mandalorian’s “Chapter 9: The Marshall” had the murderous Krayt Dragon. The differences between the Final Frontier and the Faraway Galaxy could not have been made clearer by these dueling beasts: in Mando, the plot involved…

Marvel’s The Falcon and the Winter Soldier: Who Are the Villains?

New DVD release, , , ,
This article contains speculation that could lead to spoilers for The Falcon and the Winter Soldier and the wider MCU. The Falcon and the Winter Soldier dropped a new trailer during the Super Bowl with some tantalizing new hints at the world Sam and Bucky are fighting in. And while we still don’t have a total grasp of the full scope of the story or what our heroes are up against in this post-Captain America world, we got glimpses of new characters, a new (possible) hate group, and a good look at a classic villain’s iconic ski mask. But who…

How Christopher Plummer Became One of the Best Villains in Star Trek Movie History

New DVD release, , , , ,
Christopher Plummer appeared in over 200 films during a storied career spanning seven decades. Though he first found fame as Captain von Trapp in The Sound of Music, that ultimately provided a springboard to an eclectic career that surprised and delighted in equal measure. Plummer was an accomplished theatre performer with an uncanny knack for stealing the show in minor yet memorable roles; a magnetic presence you simply couldn’t take your eyes off.  Everyone has a favourite Plummer performance whether it be as Rudyard Kipling in John Huston’s The Man Who Would Be King or his recent turn in Rian…

New DVD release, , , , ,
This article contains Wonder Woman 1984 spoilers. Our spoiler free review can be found here. It’s widely acknowledged that between DC and Marvel, DC has the best villains. From the volatile anarchy of the Joker to the delicious anti-heroine of Catwoman, some have even become worthy of their own spin-off movies.
