Despite reports of a troubled production, Rogue One: A Star Wars Story exceeded expectations last December, though one talking point which divided fans and critics alike was the decision to add younger versions of Grand Moff Tarkin (Peter Cushing) and Princess Leia (Carrie Fisher) to the movie via CGI.
We recently learned that Logan is the highest grossing movie of 2017 and while Beauty of the Beast is likely to dethrone it over the next few weeks, it's easy to imagine Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 beating them both when it finally reaches theaters in May.
The past few years have been very interesting for Doctor Octopus in the pages of Amazing Spider-Man. After learning that he was dying, the villain managed to transfer his consciousness into the body of Peter Parker and became the Superior Spider-Man. After giving the wall-crawler control again, Otto placed his mind inside a robot before getting a brand new body courtesy of The Jackal in the pages of The Clone Conspiracy.
Wonder Woman is going to be a big test for Warner Bros. following what some might call a disastrous 2016 for the DC Films Universe. While both Batman V Superman: Dawn of Justice and Suicide Squad were financially successful, both drew the wrath of critics and signalled that something may be wrong with how the studio is approaching its comic book properties.
This September, the first two episodes of Marvel's Inhumans will premiere on IMAX screens before heading straight to ABC where they'll air with some additional material before the next six instalments follow. Big money has been spent to ensure the show feels like more than just your average comic book TV series, and while we still haven't seen any footage from it, some new photos have found their way online today as shooting continues in sunny Hawaii.
It's been confirmed for a while now that the Guardians of the Galaxy will be making an appearance in Avengers: Infinity War, but it doesn't sound like we should expect them to receive quite as much of the spotlight as Earth's Mightiest Heroes will. That makes a fair bit of sense all things considered, but may still disappoint fans who were hoping that this movie and its currently untitled sequel will essentially be a huge team-up between the two groups.
Almost two weeks on from its release, and Logan is still all that anyone can talk about. It's not surprising, either, given what a fantastic film it was, not to mention how incredibly successful it's proven to be at the box office.
We've seen a lot of photos from the set of The Defenders, but the full team hasn't assembled in a single one of them. Matt Murdock has spent some time with Jessica Jones and Luke Cage has been reunited with Claire Temple, but the group of street level superheroes haven't gotten together in front of the paparazzi yet.
When we last saw Samuel L. Jackson's Nick Fury, he was providing some much-needed assistance to Earth's Mightiest Heroes in Avengers: Age of Ultron. Conspicuous by his absence in Captain America: Civil War, the hero looks set to make his presence felt in Avengers: Infinity War, but will he be joined by a fan-favourite villain?
We've known for a long time that Rogue One: A Star Wars Story underwent some significant reshoots which reshaped the entire final act (and perhaps as much as half of the movie), but surprisingly, it's now been revealed that the film's best scene wasn't even included in the original cut.
