Supergirl Teaser Trailer

By

On December 11, 2025

In DC, Movies

It was rumored that December 11th would be the premiere date for the Supergirl teaser trailer. The rumors are true. This is the second film in James Gunn’s DC universe. Milly Alcock‘s Supergirl was teased at the end of the Superman movie released earlier this year. She returns as the titular character to tell the tale of Kara Zor-El before she arrives on Earth. Some may recognize Milly Alcock as young Rhaenyra Targaryen from House of the Dragon.

I’m a little undecided. This trailer doesn’t quite ignite the excitement and enthusiasm as the Superman trailer did. Coincidentally, the Superman trailer came out almost exactly a year ago. It’s a pretty unknown cast, other than Jason Momoa as Lobo. Perhaps when we get the official trailer, I’ll feel a little more interested in the movie.

Movie Review of Fantastic Four First Steps

Fantastic 4 First Steps poster

Directed by: Matt Shakman
Starring: Pedro Pascal, Vanessa Kirby, Ebon Moss-Bachrach
Release Date: July 25, 2025
Runtime: 1 h 45m
My Rating:

It’s been four years since Reed, Sue, Johnny, and Ben took that fateful trip into space and became Earth’s protectors. Now, Galactus threatens to consume the planet to satiate his life force, and it’s up to The Fantastic Four to stop him.

This is the first film of the Sixth and final phase of the Multiverse Saga. I’d say that this is a solid start to this phase. I had my doubts when the trailer premiered, but after hearing good things and seeing it myself, those doubts are gone. If I’m being honest, I enjoyed Superman more, but as a bigger Marvel fan, I’m giving this movie the same rating.

Movie Review of Superman (2025)

Superman (2025) poster

Directed by: James Gunn
Starring: David Corenswet, Rachel Brosnahan, Nicholas Hoult
Release Date: July 11, 2025
Runtime: 2 hr 9 min
My Rating:

I am going to try to keep this review spoiler-free because it’s still new in the theaters. As such, I’m just going to come right out and say that I enjoyed this movie. I’ve always been a bigger Marvel fan, but in the DC Universe, Superman is my favorite. Perhaps Christopher Reeve is to thank for that. Admittedly, I was a little nervous; DC has been struggling to match Marvel’s success. I think James Gunn has started strong, and I’m excited for the next story.

This is a retelling of Superman, so they change a few things from the versions you’ve seen before. This is an especially important note for us Gen-Xers who grew up watching the Christopher Reeve movies.

Super Hero Month (2025) – Superman (OG-ish)

By

On July 6, 2025

In DC, Monthly Movie Theme, Movies

For Super Hero Month (2025), I revisited my childhood with the original Superman, played by Christopher Reeve. While I am predominantly a Marvel fan, I do appreciate the DC universe. When it comes to DC Comics, Superman is probably my favorite. I grew up in the 80s and 90s, and the Superman theme was part of the soundtrack of my childhood. Honestly, anything composed by Sir John Williams is part of my childhood soundtrack.

Fun Fact: Christopher Reeve was trained by David Prowse to get in shape for his role as Superman. David Prowse was the man in the Darth Vader costume; therefore, Superman was trained by Darth Vader.

Here is the Super Hero Month (2025) list.

Trailers: Fantastic Four: First Steps – Final Trailer

By

In Marvel, Movies

Ok, I’m a little behind posting about new MCU trailers. A couple of days ago, the final trailer for Fantastic Four First Steps came out. If, by chance, you haven’t seen it yet, or want to watch it again, here you go:

This trailer is a little more exciting than the previous trailers we’ve seen for this movie. This cast and story are starting to grow on me, but it’s probably going to be one of those movies that I wait to see the audience’s response. I don’t care about the critics.

Just a note in regards to the MCU, this movie is the first film in Phase Six. Phase Six is also the final set of films in the Multiverse Saga.

The movie comes out on July 25th. If you see it, drop a comment about what you thought. I’m interested.

Trailers: Thunderbolts* Final Trailer

By

On April 17, 2025

In Comic Books, Marvel

It’s a busy week. The start of Star Wars Celebration begins tonight and we have two new Marvel trailers this week. Here is the final trailer for Marvel’s Thunderbolts* coming out in a few weeks on May 2nd.

I’m glad I saw this trailer after the Fantastic Four First Steps trailer. There is significantly more energy coming from this trailer and I’m far more compelled to see this movie in the theater.

I don’t really have much to say about this trailer. The villain appears to be “The Void” or Dark Sentry, which I know nothing about. A quick Google search told me he (or it) is a dark force that tries to take out the “New Avengers” and even spars with the Fantastic Four and Doctor Strange. Perhaps this explains why we are also getting the Fantastic Four movie this year as well.

If you are savvy in Marvel canon please feel free to enlighten me more on The Void/Dark Sentry.
