This Week's Haul!

This has been a great week, I must say. GotG has been released in theatres, Marvel Studios put Squirrel Girl into their vast and ever growing library, and a video with every Easter egg was uploaded to the interwebs.

I guess we'll start with GotG, which was freakin' awesome and incredibly fun. I'll try not to spoil anything, but be warned, their might be something below that might contain some stuff from the movie. Anyway, Guardians has been a critical success, with a 93% rating on Rotten Tomatoes, and earned $37 million on it's first night. It is projected to make $95 mil. on it's opening weekend, and it has bumped up the summer box office slump by 38%. This is great news for Disney/Marvel, James Gunn, and us fans. But especially James Gunn.

I am Groot.

You see, Mr. Gunn has other plans for the MCU (He wants to do a Thunderbolts like thing...) and the god known as Kevin Feige told him that he could do anything if GotG did well, which it did.  I would like to see more of Gunn in the MCU, because he did spectacular with the franchise's tenth movie, blending in action and sci-fi and comedy all in one movie. I really enjoyed the humor in the film, adult jokes that go over the kids' heads and the jokes that the whole family could enjoy.

The movie was great. From unique characters, to amazing special effects, the movie was certainly different: in a good way. But the one thing that truly stood out in this film was Awesome Mix Vol. 1. Hooked on a Feeling, Ain't No Mountain High Enough, I Want You Back, they all were chosen well for the certain scenes they were put in. If you, too, loved the AMV1, then you could buy the album on iTunes for $8.99. (Or you can download an MP3 app and download the songs.) Here is a list of songs if you are choosing the second option:

1. Hooked on a Feeling
2. Go All The Way
3. Spirit in the Sky
4. Moonage Daydream
5. Fooled Around and Fell in Love
6. I'm Not in Love
7. I Want You Back
8.Come and Get Your Love
9. Cherry Bomb
10. Escape (The Pina Colada Song)
11. O-O-H Child
12. Ain't No Mountain High Enough

 

Squirrel Girl. A woman, with the power, of squirrels. (Those things are evil. Planning to take over some day them pests.) In my opinion, she is pretty cool, and is definitely unique, which makes her perfect in the MCU, which is now trying to diverse-itize things. (Like when they put in GotG, and with Ant Man and Doc Strange.) Even though it would be neat to see her in the limelight of a movie, we all know that she isn't going to get one. She isn't big enough of a character to hold on her own film, but she definitely could see herself standing by Jessica Jones and Luke Cage. (She hung out with the two in the comics.) By that, I mean she could be put into the booming world of television, possibly being a Defender (Because ya' know, the MCU is different from the comic universe.) and would work well in the TV.

 

To wrap up this week's haul, here is a video of all the MCU Easter eggs.

What was your favorite part of Guardians of the Galaxy? What do you think about the possibility of Squirrel Girl in the MCU? Is there any Easter eggs that MTV missed? Tell us in the comments below!

 

That's all we have for this week's haul, but be sure to follow for more news on Earth's Mightiest Franchise!

Things we Learned at SDCC

Hey guys! It's been awhile since any notable news has been out, but now that SDCC is finishing up, there's some worth talking about.

First off, the full poster for Avengers: Age of Ultron, has been released, along with a piece of the poster for each main Avenger.

 

 

At the Marvel panel, we got to see the cast of the second assembling of Earth's Mightiest, excluding Scarlet Johansson and Joss Whedon, due to one being pregnant, and the other having just gone through knee surgery. (You know what that means: Joss Whedon is going to have a baby!) But before the AoU team came out, the cast of Ant Man came out to the stage. Paul Rudd said his experience at Comic Con was amazing, with Evangeliene Lilly joking that he was a CC virgin. Corey Stoll (The Strain) was announced as the movie's main antagonist, Darren Cross, aka Yellowjacket.

 

 

Since there was no footage of Ant Man, we didn't see anything for it, but we got to see a trailer for AoU, along with some "terrifying" pictures of Ultron. After the trailer, the crowd was abuzz, but silenced themselves when GotG director James Gunn and actor Chris Pratt (Star Lord) came on to the screen, and announced that Guardians of the Galaxy 2 would come out on July 28th, 2017. This doesn't surprise me, because GotG was given a total rating of 100%.

 

 

 

 

Sure, all of that was great news and cool beans. But what was truly awesome was when Josh Brolin walked out to the panel, wearing the Infinity Gauntlet. This was certainly a big tease for the future of the MCU, which at some point, will lead up to the Infinity Gauntlet crossover.

 

 

That's all I have to tell you guys, but stay tuned for more updates on the worlds best franchise.

Movie Timeline Complete!

As said in the title, the Movie Timeline is complete!
Now, you can see all nine released movies- plus GotG- with a list of the cast and crew, along with budget, box office, running time and a detailed plot summary. Hopefully you guys will check it out, along with subscribing to the blog, and (if you kindly would) share the blog on Facebook and Twitter! Next project, TV Show list!

EDIT:

 

 

Okay, the Small Screen tab is finished. Hopefully someone will read this eventually. 

Marvel Studios Releases Dates for Upcoming Films

Marvel Studios head Kevin Feige has released dates for five upcoming films.
The date lead up all the way to 2019.

 -July 28, 2017
 -November 3, 2017
 -July 6, 2018
 -November 2, 2018
 -May 3, 2019.

I hope one of them is GotG 2, which is confirmed to be in development. One could be Black Panther, which has been continually hinted in the MCU for years, starting with an easter egg in Iron Man 2, showing Wakanda (and the Savage Lands) on a map in the background. Also, we can take a very good guess and say that one of those dates are for Avengers 3, which will feature Earth's Mightiest pitted against Thanos, who is going to be portrayed by Josh Brolin, starting in GotG.

What do you guys think about these dates? Tell me in the comments below!
Be sure to follow me for more updates, and I'll see you guys later.
