REEL FURY: Trailer 3 – The Dark Knight Rises

Dark Knight Rises

In our latest edition of CineFusion Weekly we posted some info on the Batman viral campaign not knowing that we’d actually get to see the final trailer early for one of the most anticipated films of the summer. I may be a Marvel Films/Avengers supporter before DC, but when it comes to Chris Nolan’s Batman, I’m equally a fanboy. Right now my excitement is even greater because The Dark Knight [read...]

FURIOUS POSTERS: The Dark Knight Rises Teaser

The Dark Knight Rises

After seeing all the different versions of The Caped Crusader on the big screen over the years, I can safely say that Christopher Nolan’s modern adaptation of the classic D.C. comic hero is by far my favorite. The director chose to keep the character rooted in reality, leaving the campiness behind while toning down the fantastical aspects in all the right ways. The casting for the movies has also been [read...]

REEL FURY: The Avengers assemble in a furious new trailer!

The Avengers

As a longtime comic book geek its been a dream of mine to see a super hero crossover movie happen. I also love the whole idea of the expansive Marvel Universe and how the different characters and various visual details can appear in each of the separate films.

FURIOUS POSTERS: The Dark Knight

Batman

Director Christopher Nolan‘s second film in the re-booted Batman series turned out be one of the best super hero films ever made.

This was straight up anarchy and terrorism in all its unbridled ugliness. The furious poster [read...]

Supes is worn out

“Look! Up in the sky! It’s a bird! It’s a plane! It’s ANOTHER REBOOT!” Superman: That name brings to mind three things right away usually: the colors red and blue…and the letter S. You also have to throw in him being a defender of truth, justice, honor and the American Way. It’s pretty amazing to think it’s been 72 years since he made his debut in Action Comics, that was [read...]
