The Marvel movie to follow the soon to be released "Thor: The Dark World"

Another recently released trailer that I have been waiting for with baited breath is "X-Men: Days of Future Past". Bryan Singer, director of the first and second X-Men movies returns to the franchise and incorporates the casts of the X-Men franchise with the cast of the prequel "X-Men: The First Class", as well as, adding some faces by introducing some popular characters from the comic books. Brace yourself.

 

 

 

 

The newest DC Animated movie to be released on DVD/ Bluray is "Justice League: War" the origin story for DC Comics The New 52 relaunch. This is both the origin story for The New 52 version of The Justice League and the characters first time meeting each other. While this is not a literal adaptation of the actual graphic novel this animated movie looks to be as exciting and entertaining as the actual illustrated story was. Check it out and enjoy.
