X-Men Film Review: Part One
As we keep chugging along on our adventure through all sorts of comic movies, it's always nice to take a look back at time when we didn't really think that was going to be a real possibility. I mean, we had a few here and there; Marc Goldblatt's "The Punisher" in 1989 with Dolph Lundgren, Todd McFarlene's "Spawn" came to life on the screen in 1997, and even Marvel's "Blade" started it's three film run in 1998.

'X-Men: Apocalypse' S.B. 50 Trailer!
'X-Men: Apocalypse' Trailer Has Arrived!
Since as far back as I can remember the X-Men have been a part of my comic book loving life. The animated series back in the 90's helped catapult me into this world, but the comics themselves seduced me into loving this team of extraordinarily evolved people. Probably my favorite run of books was the Age of Apocalypse series in which we see a world where Charles Xavier died before he could see his goal of uniting Mutants and Humans in peace. Also in this world, Apocalypse has taken control of the planet and rules with a vicious and evil fist. And now...now we get to see Apocalypse on the big screen for the first time and he's bringing his four horsemen with him. Today we got the first trailer of the latest X-Men film directed by Bryan Singer.
First Look Photos From X-Men: Apocalypse
As the dust settles from the amazing showing that FOX/Marvel Studios had at this year's SDCC, we're getting more and more information from our favorite shows and upcoming films. One of those films being Bryan Singer's X-Men: Apocalypse which had a huge panel of actors at Comic Con. Today we were given a bevy of photos (curtesy of EW.com) that showcase the new additions to the X-Men cast including, Apocalypse, Psylocke, Cyclops, Storm, Nightcrawler, and Jean Grey.
Review: X-Men: Days of Future Past (Spoilers)
In the past I've been very critical of the X-Men films. I'm close to this franchise, because as a young person it was my first real comic series that I fell in love with. There were the comics, the animated series, and the toys. I loved the X-Men and at a young age I couldn't get enough of them. Then as I got older, they announced the release of the first X-Men film. I could not wait to see it and it was amazing. Then X2 came out and it was even better than the first, but it was downhill from there. X-Men: The Last Stand left a very sour taste in my mouth. And it was all made worse with the release of X-Men Origins: Wolverine even though I finally got to see my favorite mutant, Gambit, hit the big screen. I was given hope, however, when X-Men: First Class came out. I enjoyed it a great deal and couldn't wait for more films with these characters and actors. So, now we have X-Men: Days of Future Past.
