You didn’t miss anything. It wasn’t great. The premise has potential, but this particular follow through was disappointing.
What's going to cause the biggest freakout, do you think? Orko (Griffin Newman), Andra (Tiffany Smith), Teela (Sarah Michelle Gellar), Roboto (Justin Long), and Evil-Lyn (Lena Headey) on Masters of the Universe: Revelation.
From the trailer, and from the art in that image above, it looks like Orko might actually be POWERFUL and not just a joke character. To me, that's pretty cool.
The backstory with Orko was that he actually WAS a powerful sorceror in his home dimension, but his magic didn't work as intended once he ended up in Eternia. It's possible he's finally figured it out, or this is a one-off "gotta do this or we're all dead" moment of things just going his way for a change.
"Fortress Of Solitude". About two friends from Brooklyn in the 70's that receive magic power rings. One friend white, one black. The black guy gets screwed over even with powers. https://www.darkhorizons.com/gomez-rejon-to-direct-fortress-of-solitude/
Chronicle 2! But with girls!* https://www.darkhorizons.com/gender-swapped-chronicle-2-in-the-works/ *Cue wails of "the heroes don't have pee-pees!! It's woke!! ".
The article itself doesn't seem to know. My money is on it being like Craft 2, mostly a re-do, but with vague mention of the first.
The flick would have been greatly improved if David Duchovny got puked on by the Cheddar Goblin from "Mandy".
It's pretty good. It slipped under most people's radars, cuz MCU was becoming a thing. Came out same year as Avengers 1.
It's definitely worth a watch, although I've grown tired of the shaky-cam first person found footage film style (or whatever you want to call it). I think it came out near the tail end of that fad, which started with The Blair Witch Project through to Cloverfield and then Chronicle.
It doesn't look like it's streaming for free on any of the multiple platforms I have. Is it worth a $4 rental on Amazon Prime?
Okay, seen some more reporting on this. It's ten years after the first one and another small group get powers and go nuts. So a sort-of sequel.
Q-Force. Nope, not about Qanon attacking a pizza parlor, about LGBT super-spies. Ehh...super-spies technically aren't superheroes...but Black Widow has blurred that line until it's gone, so fuck it. With- -Wanda Sykes -Laurie Metcalf -David Harbour -Sean Hayes -Gary Cole -Patti Harrison -Matthew Rogers -Gabe Liedman
Kevin Smith's He-Man/Masters was for adults who grew up on the property, this one's a reboot for the kiddies. ...meh. Although! They did finally use the thing where Keldor/Skeletor is He-Man's uncle.
No news, just randomly felt like listing what I consider the best off-brand superhero movies. In no particular order... -Super (by James Gunn) -Dredd -Toxic Avenger 1, and 4 -Kick-Ass 1 and 2 -Unbreakable, Split, & Glass -The Crow -Chronicle -Hellboy 1 & 2 (the Del Toro ones) -Robocop (1987 original, duh) -Darkman At least those are the ones that are clear-cut superheroes. I head-canon that "The Purge: Anarchy" is an Elseworlds Punisher. And Jack Burton from "Big Trouble In Little China" fights superpowered villans, so that dances the line. Any others?
