Han Solo's Jacket Just Sold For A Massive Amount Of Money

When we first met him in 1977's Star Wars, Han Solo had a sizable bounty on his head, due to debts owed to Jabba the Hutt. It's why he took a young Luke Skywalker and an aged Obi-Wan Kenobi aboard the Millennium Falcon, and eventually got wrapped up rescuing Princess Leia Organa from the clutches of the evil Darth Vader. However, if Han had just lied low and held onto some of his old clothes from adventures past, he might have been able to pay those debts off with an auction. The Wrap reported the massive amount of funds that ...

The Advantage Falcon's Wings Have Over Iron Man's Suit, According To Anthony Mackie

The dividing lines seem to be everywhere with Marvel's Captain America: Civil War. The latest battle is not that of abilities, but rather that of functionability, as Anthony Mackie was asked to weigh in on whether The Falcon or Iron Man's suit was tactically superior. Obviously, Mackie sided with his character's appearance, and for a pretty big reason: maneuverability. During an interview with Yahoo, Anthony Mackie made the case for Sam Wilson's wings, and he cited quite a bit of evidence in support. On top of the massive advantage of wings not depending on the factor of momentum as much ...

Spider-Man May Face Off Against This Classic Villain In His Solo Movie

Aside from Batman, Spider-Man arguably has the best rogues gallery in all of superhero history. For over 50 years, the Web-Slinger has battled a variety of super villains, from freakish mad scientist creations to alien life forms.

The latest news points in the latter’s direction, as The Vulture is apparently flying our way. Spider-Man& ...

Why Charlize Theron Wants To Do A Mad Max: Fury Road Sequel

There's absolutely no question that Mad Max: Fury Road made a serious impression on audiences last year. Not only did it revive a once defunct franchise, but it also introduced audiences to Charlize Theron's badass Imperator Furiosa. Her character became a fan favorite, and easily outshined even Tom Hardy's Max Rockatansky.

The past week has been awash with news related to the highly anticipated Kingsman: The Golden Circle. A sequel to last year's smash hit Kingsman: The Secret Service, the follow-up should do what sequels do best: go bigger.

Why Marvel TV/Movie Crossovers Are So Hard To Pull Off In The Movies, According To Its President

Marvel Studios have created the blueprint on how to build both big and small screen universes. The tales of The Avengers, Captain America, Thor, and Iron Man continue to thrive in cinemas, while Daredevil, Jessica Jones, and Agents Of SHIELD are just as successful on Netflix and TV. But there’s been very little crossover between these two mediums. And now Marvel’s head-honcho Kevin Feige has come out and explained why that’s the case, admitting that it’s just too difficult logistically. Kevin Feige made this revelation to io9 after being asked point blank ...

Will The X-Men Movies Ever Catch Up To The Original Timeline? Here's What The Producer Says

The X-Men franchise has a rather complicated timeline. Between being around for the last 16 years, a semi-reboot, and a dash of time travel, the continuity is a bit all over the place, and there are canon stories being told in multiple eras. It begs the question if we'll ever see all of these different portions eventually come together, and according to producer Simon Kinberg, that is definitely a goal. With Deadpool set to come out on Blu-ray early next month (May 10th), I had the pleasure of sitting down with Simon Kinberg and director Tim Miller in Los Angeles this ...

Will The Justice League Movie Actually Feature The Watchtower?

When you get enough superheroes working together on a regular basis, better meeting places are needed than a coffee shop, park or a creepy cave underneath one of your teammate’s mansion. They need official headquarters, and for the Justice League, this is usually the Watchtower, their base introduced in 1997 that’s located either on the Moon or floating in Earth’s orbit. The Watchtower has been seen in various animated adaptations, but with the League making the leap to live action next year in Justice League: Part One, could we see it appear on the big ...

The Star Wars Original Trilogy Is Coming Back To Movie Theaters, But Which Versions?

There may be no films ever created that are as loved as the original Star Wars trilogy. While those first films are approaching their 40th birthday, they have never gone out of popularity.
