Avengers Assemble (2012)

So who would take on such a hot potato and risk everything to bring The Avengers to the big screen? Who has the expertise of pulling together a group of miss-matched characters and forming them into a fighting force? Who has the support and the knowledge of these fanboys and girls, to keep them happy? None other than the geek god himself, Joss Whedon. However, with great power, come great responsibility; so does he pull it off and bring the culmination of these 5 films together and bring a movie that the fans deserve and want?

“Superheroes? In New York? Give me a break!”

Django Uchained (2012)

Quentin Tarantino’s spaghetti western opus is getting ever closer and to gear up the excitement of Django Unchained, a new trailer has been released. Showing more unseen footage and fleshing out the story a little bit more, that of a slave hunting down those that have taken his wife and wanting revenge for their deeds. With many colourful characters and cameos, including an appearance of the original Django, Franco Nero, Django Unchained looks like it could be another Tarantino classic.
