Though 2019 will certainly boast its share of superhero movies, I must confess that one of the films I'm looking forward to most is that of John Wick: Chapter 3. Well, at least that's what we'd been calling it up until today.
Normally, those bizarre DC-Marvel hybrid characters native to Amalgam Comics spring to mind whenever we think of oddball mashups to be produced by this art form, but the House of Ideas themselves have been going hog wild on this concept like never before in 2018.
Even if you're only vaguely familiar with the A Nightmare on Elm Street saga, there's still a fine chance that you're familiar with the basics when it comes to Freddy Krueger's origin: Long story short, he murdered a bunch of kids in Springwood before local parents hunted him down and burned him alive. Then, he came back to slaughter many more youths where nobody could protect them - in their dreams.
Even though we have the unfortunate situation that is the Friday the 13th film franchise being left in a state of legal limbo to deal with, fans of Jason Voorhees have at least had something to enjoy in recent memory. Thanks to a seriously bloody video game, one of horror’s greatest icons has been resurrected in an immersive experience, with Killer Puzzle also satisfying those of you who dig mobile gaming.
With production on Arrow's seventh season now ready to commence, we fully expect for lead actor Stephen Amell to continue sharing cryptic teasers on social media, and to perhaps continue making DC TV announcements on behalf of The CW.
Though we can’t be sure of which DC films beyond Aquaman, Shazam! and Wonder Woman 1984 will actually make it to the finish line, one of those seemingly gaining the most traction is that of Birds of Prey.

Because of that, I think this picture stands a far better chance of seeing the light of day than, say, The New Gods.
Despite the fact that we have to wait three more months until Legends of Tomorrow's fourth season officially commences, it's quite comforting knowing that cameras have begun rolling on the next leg in the Waverider crew's journey. That's right, now that production on DC's time traveling series is well underway, maybe it'll create the illusion of premiere night being just around the corner.
Though the Webhead is easily one of the most popular and enduring superheroes the world over, he's had somewhat of a bizarre cinematic history over the past two decades. Don't get me wrong, the wall-crawler has raked in a lot of dough, but let's not forget that he's been rebooted twice already - and in such a short timespan.
If you required more proof of Hollywood being a strange place, one need not look any further than the confusion surrounding the Child's Play franchise.
Unless you've been living under a rock, you've probably heard about how Catwoman decided not to go through with her wedding to the Dark Knight well before Batman #50 saw release. Even so, there's one huge detail that'd been left out of reports prior to the book hitting shelves.
