Pitch: My ‘Sinister Six’ Film and Making Sense of Nonsense

Ever since the latest Morbius trailer dropped, I just can’t stop thinking about the muddled and messy nature of the Sony Marvel universe and I’ve been dying to make some sense of this. So what better way to do that than to pitch my own film that doesn’t even include Morbius (punishment for my frustration), but manages to bring together all

Theory: ‘Hawkeye’ and Presenting the Sins of the Father from Both Sides

Disney Plus and Marvel Studios’ newest series Hawkeye just kicked off last week, and the two-episode premiere was satisfactory. Now, that’s not the glowing review I wish it could be, but at the very least I can say that this show has presented something with the potential to affect me incredibly deeply.

Speculation on Scarlett Johansson’s New Secret Marvel Project

Recently, Kevin Feige confirmed that Scarlett Johansson was producing an upcoming Marvel Studios project. At the American Cinematheque celebration for Johansson’s career, Feige indicated that the actress would be producing a “non-related Black Widow project.” It’s fantastic hearing that after all the drama, there is still a working relationship between the actress and the House of Mouse.

THEORY: ‘Hawkeye’ and Jack’s Role in the Journey of Clint

Watching the first two episodes of Hawkeye, I couldn’t help but fall in love with Tony Dalton’s portrayal of Jack Duquesne (aka The Swordsman).

Theory: How X-MEN ’97 Could Tie Into the Multiverse

While working on my recent piece comparing X-Men ’97 to the original X-Men ’92 designs, there was one huge difference I couldn’t overlook: Charles Xavier was nowhere to be seen. And on a deeper look, Xavier’s voice actor Cedric Smith is the only living actor from the main cast of X-Men who is not returning for X-Men ’97 without comment. (The

THEORY: The Future of Sony’s Spider-Verse Could Involve Miles Morales

Venom: Let There Be Carnage has topped off a theatrical run with nearly 450M dollars and Sony has carved out their nice little corner in the big-screen superhero genre. What more could they possibly want? Well, between the multiversal craziness in Into The Spider-verse and the upcoming Spider-Man: No Way Home, Sony could very well be paving the way to reintroduce

Considerations on Marvel’s Cosmic Plan Following Eternals

Eternals has set itself up to be what I consider the “Avengers: Age of Ultron” film of Phase 4. What I mean by that analogy is that the movie managed to essentially become the movie that will foreshadow the future events of the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Director Chloe Zhao was not kidding when she mentioned that the film would significantly impact the

Theory: How Bishop Security Could Open the Door For Jessica Jones to Return

A few weeks ago Marvel Studios released a new look at Hawkeye through some merchandise. One of the shirts sold at Hot Topic shows Jeremy Renner and Hailee Steinfeld together in their official Hawkeye uniforms. A tagline blazoned across the front reads “Partners, am I right?”. Which speaks to the comedy and fun this show is going to bring to the
