Batman v Superman is Here!
I don’t care what other people have to say I’m still excited to see Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice this weekend and will more than likely enjoy it. Is it because I’m a child of DC…probably. You can’t compare DC to Marvel in my eyes. They are completely different philosophies and I enjoy both because of these differences. Marvel is about the every day man or woman receiving powers and how they handle them. DC is about the mythology and their characters have always been about the characters having god like powers. And the main reason to enjoy this movie is that it is just a movie to take you away from the real world for a few hours. When you go in to watch any comic book based movie or any movie for that matter go in to the theater ready to relax and enjoy the story and effects. Yes you can point out flaws every story and person has them, but you don’t have to tear it or them down. Just my own meandering…go enjoy and have fun with it! – Richard Thanks to MovieClips Trailers for this trailer:
Anthem of the Heart Trailer
Aniplex of America will be releasing The Anthem of the Heart at the end of March. This one looks really well done. Sometimes it’s nice to get away from the big fighter robots or magical worlds and have a slice of life movie with just a hint of magic. Consider adding it to your collections. Thanks to Aniplex’ YouTube channel for the following trailer:
Miss Peregrine’s Home for Peculiar Children Trailer
Many of you have seen the trailer for Miss Peregrine’s Home for Peculiar Children. If you haven’t it is below through 20th Century Fox’ YouTube channel. However, I want to remind everyone that you can read the series from you local library or pick it up at you favorite book store. The series is written by Ransom Riggs and its third volume came out in 2015. I believe the studio made a wise decision to have Tim Burton direct this movie, it looks to be one of the good ones.
Empire of Corpses Select Release
Project Itoh’s The Empire of Corpses will be getting a limited release in select theaters in North America. FUNimation will be the distributor and has scheduled April 19 and 20 for these releases, however, no theaters have been named for the release yet. If you are in a larger metropolitan you might ask around your area and I am sure the closer it gets to the release date FUNimation will have places listed on their website. At least I would hope so, so fans can attend. Here is the teaser trailer that FUNimation’s YouTube channel has put out for Empire of Corpses:
