VENOM 2018!!! I'm not buying it





By Corey Floyd



Last week Sony announced that they are doing a Venom film to be released in 2018. Now this sounds good, but I took a deeper look. According to my sources they are not even in preproduction. The only names attached to the project are a couple of screenwriters and a producer. Dante Harper is writing for Venom. His credits are a bunch of behind the scenes documentaries, so I guess he’s gonna be doing that. The other writer attached is Jeff Pinkner who wrote the Amazing Spiderman 2. He is also the executive producer of the DARK TOWER film, and has written the upcoming Jumanji sequel starring the Rock. Now this writing team doesn’t sound too bad, but I must admit the producers do makes this sound a lot better. We have Avi Arad most known for his work under Iron Man and the first two X-Men films. To be honest, he has been more involved in comic book related entertainment than anyone else in the industry. The other producer is Scott Rosenberg, most known for “High Fidelity,” “Con - Air,” and “Gone in 60 seconds.”
This is a pretty wild mix, right?
Sony said that Venom will not be part of the MCU. I doubt that. I think they need to play ball. Overall, I’m not buying a 2018 release. Like I stated earlier, they are very far away from just basic pre-production, casting etc. I see this as a 2019 thing. If they try to rush this movie, I predict that it will be a huge failure.  But hey, I could be wrong. (I’m usually not tho… lol)

Iron Fist…. More like Tin Fist! TV Review


By Corey Floyd


Hey, Folks! Now a about a week ago, I did a piece about Iron fist not being about appropriation. I was even looking forward to the series. I just finished it ………………. LAME! This was the Last piece of the puzzle before we get the Defenders on Netflix and it wasn’t great.

 Finn Jones previously known for playing Loras Tyrell on Game of thrones is our hero. I feel that this is not the role for him. His acting comes off too stiff. I don’t think he ever picked up the comic to study the character which would have been essential to capture this character correctly. 

The fight scenes were okay I guess.  IF DAREDEVIL DIDN’T DO IT BETTER. The fight scenes that don’t involve him went well. Any fight that involves him was stiff. You can see them counting their moves and because of his ridiculous hair style, his stuntman can only do so much. 

The supporting characters and antagonists were actually really good except for a few assassins but that might have been Jones fault for lack of physical prowess in choreography. The storyline isn’t that bad, but it is swiss cheese. I will not spoil it because you won’t remember it anyway I hope the Defenders will save Iron Fist or maybe they will recast him before they do a second season.

 (P.S Defenders just finished filming) The only thing that saved this was the supporting cast and the fact that I love Rosario Dawson. Iron Fist was an Iron Miss.
