The Fantastic Four: First Steps marks the fifth live-action adaptation to date: there are two versions from 20th Century Fox in 2005 and 2007, a reboot in 2015, and let’s not forget the 1994 low-budget Roger Corman version that never saw the light of day. I’ve only seen the 2005 version, though the most memorable …

FlixChatter Review: THUNDERBOLTS* (2025) – a great mix of pathos + humor while still delivering fun action sequences. Florence Pugh is the clear MVP.
I’ve been feeling Marvel-ed out for some time, so I wasn’t exactly clamoring to see Thunderbolts*. This year has been especially packed with superhero movies, something I haven’t seen in a while.

FlixChatter Review – VENOM: The Last Dance (2024) – Tom Hardy bids farewell to his chatty, bombastic symbiote in a whirlwind of crazy fun
I came into the Venom franchise quite late as I just didn’t care for it initially, despite being a big fan of Tom Hardy. Then I saw the mid-credit scene of Spider-man: No Way Home featuring Hardy’s character Eddie Brock with his alien parasite in a Mexican bar talking to a bartender played by Ted …
FlixChatter Review: Deadpool & Wolverine (2024)–a bloody bonkers action comedy energized by fiery bromance + mind-blowing cameos + uproarious one-liners
I have been feeling Marvel fatigue for some time and I’ve been relatively blasé around all the buzz surrounding Deadpool & Wolverine potentially shaking up the Marvel franchise. I haven’t read the comics, neither the Deadpool nor the X-Men ones, though I still distinctly remember my excitement when the first X-Men movie came out in …
