Avenger VS The Dark Knight Rises: The Battle Begines

On May 4th Marvel's The Avengers hits theaters. Needless to say it will be one of the biggest box office hits this summer. Already reports are coming in that it will reach over $500 Million World Wide when it finally lands in theaters on the 4th. Also, when you go to see The Avengers make sure you stay through the credits. There is a mid-credit scene and an after credit scene. The second scene is supposed to be more for laughs, while the first hints at the future of the franchise.

Next, The Dark Knight Rises. Back in 2008 The Dark Knight was the biggest comic book movie to come out. As it stands 3rd in the US box office with over $533 Million, can Marvel's The Avengers top it? For that matter can the 3rd and final act for Christopher Nolan's Batman top its own record. The latest and possible last major trailer hit the web and will play with Avengers.

What will be the final gross for each film?

New Avengers Movie Poster

May 4th is just around the corner, and The Avengers will be one of this years highest grossing movies. The poster features all the Avengers with Robert Downey Jr. front and center. This movie will be one heck of a ride.

Amazing Spider-Man and Avengers Trailer

If you watched the Super Bowl you just may have caught the new trailer for the Avengers coming out this May. In the trailer we get a very good look at the Hulk and a quick glimpse of just who else The Avengers are fighting.

  Sony opted out of the Super Bowl and released the new Trailer for The Amazing Spider-Man online. In it we see the new villain The Lizard causing havoc and a good look at how Spider-Man's web-shooters really work.

Biggest Superhero Movies of 2012

There has been a recent wave of superhero movies as of late. Some good, some bad, some great and some not worth mentioning, but how will this year stack up to the rest? That is the question. We are now in a day and age where the superhero can come to life as is was written and drawn in the comic books themselves. But sometimes what's lacking is story. Beyond the mystical images full of splash and lights and slow motion action it is the story that is some times left behind. The year 2012 just may change that.

I will start with a superhero movie that is not based on a comic book. Chronicle is a story about three high school kids that gain super powers one day. They proceed to use their powers much like any kid that gains power. They use it recklessly. But it seems one goes a bit too far with his deeds. This seems to be pretty fresh take on the genre as not only comic book superhero movies have been become popular but original superhero movies as well. Most of those are never good. But this one seems to break that mold. Chronicle hits theaters February 3 2012.

Next on the list is Ghost Rider: Spirit of Vengeance. Nicolas Cage come back with a, well, with Idris Elba and this would be Elba's 3rd comic book movie to boot. Cage comes back as Johnny Blaze trying to stop the devil from being reborn in human form. The trailer hit not too long ago and it looks promising. But something about it just does not sit well with me. Ghost Rider uses his abilities in frightening new ways that look great on screen and it seems some pop up in Ultimate Marvel VS Capcom 3. Christopher Lambert is in it as well. Needless to say I am there when the movies come out. Ghost Rider: Spirit of Vengeance rides in to theaters February 17.

Originally a novel by Edgar Rice Burroughs John Carter of Mars has been made and remade in to comics since the '30s and has even showed up in both Marvel and DC Comics. Taylor Kitsch plays the title character and has also appeared as Gambit in the Wolverine movie. John Carter is brought to you by Disney and will be Pixar's first live action movie. I am eager to see this movie. It's full of aliens and strange landscapes, action and cool battles. Needless to say this should be a fun ride; this will be another on my watch list. March 9 2012 is when John Carter lands in theaters.
