最新一集Ironman上星期四於香港上映，至今已經累積超過4千萬票房。當我身邊大部人朋友都看罷並同時大讚今集的時候，小弟卻等到今晚才有空看 (遲左一個星期睇已經好似好OUT咁 哭!) 。 還記得早幾天小弟就於文章提到進入戲院之前不要接收有關電影的資料，以自己的幻想去享受戲院內百多分鐘的故事。今次小弟就失敗了，上星期看動新聞時不小心中伏，被完全劇透了 (包括知道了最後大佬並不是滿大人)。不過原來就算沒有被動新聞劇透了，單看電影的頭二十分鐘就已經知道最後大佬是誰。 既然我身邊的朋友都已經看過了這套戲，小弟亦不妨提一提今集的劇情。主要的故事大綱就是，當年Tony Stark還是自負的花花公子的時候戲弄了一位仰慕他的小Fans，而這位小Fans後來因此而報復。說到這裡有無人覺得好像迪士尼的一套卡通片超人特工隊 The Incredibles ，Mr Incredibles又是因為當年看不起Syndrome而到最後被其報復。當然，最後還是主角會勝出的 (笑) 。 不過今集亦鮮有地把Tony Stark設定到一個臨危邊緣的地步。記得無論對上兩集，甚至The Avengers內，Tony Stark出場總是自... read more »

I usually don't care about childishfeudsbetween the Hollywood elite. There other issues to worry about, including whether I should eat one more cracker--and whether it requires another dab of crab dip. But recently The Dark Knight cinematographer Wally Pfister criticized The Avengers, calling the film "appalling" and "they'd shoot from some angle and I'd think 'Why is the camera there?' Oh, I see, they spent half a million on a set and want to show it off. It took me completely out of the movie...it was ... read more »
Here it is this week's recap of the reviews Blu-ray/DVD releases, as usual arrange by the grade they received. This week was dominated by lighthearted, comedic, fun-driven flicks. With 2 comedies (although very much distinct in their style) and one superhero film that doesn't lack in funny gags either. From the very raunchy, provocative humor of the Danish fatherhood comedy "Klown", to the elegant, witty, and delightful "Damsels in Distress", and the high profile release of the week "The Avengers" which ... read more »
Throughout human history there has always been a intricate fascination for divine beings. Creatures that exceed mere mortal capacities, they are either bound to protect or destroy humanity. Titans, gods, demons, wizards, etc. These fictional inventions served to put to rest anxieties and fears, to let the masses feel like there was an order in the universe, in which the good,divine entities will protect us. In our time, these mythological and epic battles have taken a less serious existence, to become th... read more »
Just recently ABC announced that not only was Joss Whedon back as a writer and director for the sequel to The Avengers (set for release May of 2015) but that the mastermind behind such cult TV hits as Buffy the Vampire Slayer and Firefly was going to be involved on a new TV show as well. Even though Whedon won´t helm the project (he´s too busy for that), he will at least be a consultant and will direct whenever he´s available. “The S.H.I.E.L.D. show kind of dropped in my lap, and I love working in TV... read more »
After The Avengers became the blockbuster hit of the year and the third most successful movie ever, it was only a matter of time that Disney would want to ink a deal for a sequel and secure the man behind the magic, director Joss Whedon.

Marvel Studios issued a statement to confirm the news... read more »

Miley Cyrus, looking pretty. Liam Hemsworth, quite dashing. Do I really care about Liam Hemsworth and Miley Cyrus? Sigh. Not really.I actually am quite more interested in Liam Hemsworth's older brother, Chris Hemsworth. You might recognize him from that little film, The Avengers. Chris Hemsworth played Thor, and he beat out Liam for the role! Burn.Anyhoo, why am I discussing Liam Hemsworth since I am only slightly interested in him? Husband wants to know, and if Husband wants to know, that means oth... read more »
