AVENGERS: INFINITY WAR Character Posters Are Still Missing THAT Guy….

Some more poster profusion is abound for netizens gearing up for Avengers: Infinity War on April 27. I have to say though, as electric as the mood is, the continued lack of Jeremy Renner’s Hawkeye since the most recent official poster is starting to feel like a running joke. It’s almost ominous in a sense what with all the hype stirring about someone’s death.

Even so though… it does feel erroneous to leave out an Avenger not just once but several times over in lieu of such a stellar event film. Whether this is actually just a small issue or not remains to be seen though, but it’s hard to ignore and it makes you wish the Russos would come either get their PR shit together or come clean about these Hawkeye-less posters…

This, of course, coupled with the fact that the film has already bested Black Panther in advance ticket sales, means the hype is working (not to mention the shenanigans happening here)…and THAT is how you sell a movie, kids.

Peep the new character posters below.

AVENGERS: INFINITY WAR Seethes With Foreboding Doom In The Final Trailer

Leave it to the Russo Brothers – Anthony and Joe – to make your Friday one to remember. Under Marvel’s care and nuturement they’re ever closer to bringing fans another epic step closer to the very “end” they continue to tease with the forthcoming April release of Avengers: Infinity War, and with it, a final trailer to happy segue fans from the thrills shared in Taika Watiti’s Thor: Ragnarok and the global billion dollar success earned by the fruition of Ryan Coogler’s Black Panther.

Bear these in mind with more on the way from the studio along with earlier spin-off and solo hopes of Scarlett Johansson’s Black Widow and Danai Gurira’s stellar role as Okoye in the Chadwick Boseman starrer. Time will surely tell if things take shape, but alas, Thanos’s reckoning awaits and nearly a decade later and following the fallout from Captain America: Civil War, it’s up to our heroes once again to take the mantle and save the world.

So, busines as usual? Yes.

Trailer and brand-spanking new animated poster below!

Destiny arrives. Get tickets to @Avengers: #InfinityWar now!

FIVE-A-DAY ROUND-UP XIV: Aquaman, Deadpool 2, Avengers: Infinity War, Black Panther, Alpha

Veering off of superhero movies for this last one, Kodi Smit-McPhee has an extra mouth to feed in Albert Hughes’s striking new adventure, Alpha. Opening on March 2, the film is set in the last Ice Age where an injured young boy and a wounded wolf abandoned by its pack become unlikely allies as they brave the elements and unrelenting dangers of the wilderness to find their way home. I was compelled by the trailer when I first saw it and best of all, I love stories about animals and humans co-existing together. This is gonna be fun.

Marvel Announces New Dates For Nine New Films!

The on-going war for bragging rights continues as Marvel and DC continue to duke it out, toe-to-toe, neck and neck for ultimate live-action comic book TV and film glory. DC is currently in the running following its most recent productions of productions for Batman V Superman: Dawn Of Justice, as well as the developing TV universe between current shows like Gotham, Arrow and The Flash, and upcoming teleivison properties like Titans, Supergirl and Krypton.

Of course, Marvel wasn’t going to let all that slide, especially after having just announced what it has in store for their cinematic universe at least twice in the past month. So on Tuesday, they held an epic event to shut down all epic events (at least for now), and it’s safe to say thay the fans are happy (seriously, I think one of them shit their pants – their words, true story). On that note, here it is, all nice and thick and whatnot:

May 6, 2016 was the official release date already pre-determined for the newly announced and officially-titled Captain America: Civil War, which will see title actor Chris Evans and fellow Avenger Robert Downey Jr. in front of the camera with directors Anthony Russo and Joe Russo helming. Afterward, Scott Derrickson‘s Doctor Strange was tacked for November 4, 2016 with Benedict Cumberbatch in talks to star as of Monday.

The 2017 slate would also be kicked off with the advanced May 5 announcement for director James Gunn‘s ensemble rock-and-roll space hero thriller, Guardians Of The Galaxy 2 followed by actor Chris Hemsworth‘s return in the title role of the July 28 installment of Thor: Ragnarok, with scribes Craig Kyle and Christopher Yost writing the script. Actor Chadwick Boseman‘s presence at the event also ended specualtion for his confirmation in the November 3 release of Black Panther, much to the delight of fans after the appearance of the character Ulysses Klaw in last week’s Avengers: Age Of Ultron teaser.

Blasting off the 2018 slate, Marvel then followed through with an announcement for the July 6 date for Captain Marvel, in parallel to DC’s upcoming Shazam film for which actor Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson was confirmed to play the film’s anti-heroic villain, Black Adam last month. Moving on with the big announcements of the day were updates for the two-part third installment to the Avengers saga with Avengers: Infinity War – Parts 1 and 2 set May 4 and then May 3, 2019, respectively, with the other Vin Diesel-hopeful starrer, The Inhumans slated for a November 2, 2018 date in between; it has been reported that Marvel took an interest in bringing the Russo brothers aboard to round off the 3.4 part Avengers finale, so details on this are still pending.

New banners are now online as well to announce the releases. As usual, these films will set the course for plenty of changes to come, turning the comic book genre into a pure, rich platform for bringing spectacular saga-storytelling to the big screen as a game changer in many ways. Its what some fans have wanted over years, and the number has increased tremendously. Marvel is heeding the call, so…you’re welcome, and more to come. In the meantime, check out the banners below, and stay tuned for more footage to go viral for the May 1, 2015 release of Avengers: Age Of Ultron, directed by Joss Whedon, and director Peyton Reed‘s July 17, 2015 release of Ant-Man!
