Wondering how soon it will be before you can watch Captain America: Civil War in the privacy of your own home? We were — we were trying to figure out when to go see it again before then. Conveniently, I just got the press release announcement. Captain America: Civil War was a great movie, really an Avengers installment with all the other heroes involved. The highest-grossing film of 2016 will be available on Blu-ray and DVD on September 13 and […]

Warner Bros. Home Entertainment has announced a new entry in their Lego DC Comics Super Heroes direct-to-video movie line. Lego DC Comics Super Heroes: Justice League: Gotham City Breakout has an adorable concept. Batman (Troy Baker) needs a vacation, so Nightwing (Will Friedle) and Batgirl (Sarah Hyland) take him out of town. The Justice League agree to watch over Gotham while he’s gone, and they have their hands full when the Joker (Jason Spisak), the Penguin (Tom Kenny), Harley Quinn […]

Warner Bros. Animation has announced that the DC Super Hero Girls, the branding program with toys, dolls, and books featuring younger, cuter, more covered versions of DC female heroes, will have a movie released in August. DC Super Hero Girls: Hero of the Year is due out August 23 on DVD with an earlier Digital HD availability date of August 9. Like the other products, this direct-to-video movie is aimed at girls 6-12. The teen characters attend Super Hero High, […]

I had a fun time seeing Captain America: Civil War. The two and a half hours flew by, although when I left, I wasn’t as thrilled and excited as I have been after seeing other Marvel superhero movies. I think we’ve all become jaded and spoiled. A film like this — one that is really an Avengers movie, with so many superheroes battling each other under questionable premises — would have been amazing if released a few years ago, but […]

The Warner Bros. Studio Tour Hollywood (is there another one?) has announced they are adding a “new interactive experience” called “DC Universe: The Exhibit”, which seems to restrict the DCU to Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice and the upcoming Suicide Squad movie. The new exhibit will open May 24 and feature “Harley Quinn’s original Belle Reve prison cell”, as well as additional props and costumes from Suicide Squad and costumes and Batcave props from BvS. Much attention is paid […]

I am mentioning this only because I a bit surprised at how many different people saw and really enjoyed this movie. Deadpool, rated R, will be on Blu-ray and DVD on May 10, and my comic reading club wants to hold a release party. Normally, we talk about graphic memoir and women-focused adventure titles (Saga and Bitch Planet are big favorites), but those who haven’t seen this yet (like me) are intrigued, and those who have seen it want to […]

The premise of Lego DC Comics Super Heroes: Justice League: Cosmic Clash is one many comic and superhero fans are familiar with. Brainiac is shrinking planets for his collection, and his latest target is Earth. In order to get rid of the Justice League, who are in his way, he sends the members to other time periods. This “split the team up and give them separate challenges” is classic Silver Age Justice League plotting. Combined with the amount of humor […]

The Lego DC Comics Super Heroes: Justice League franchise continues with a new movie, Cosmic Clash. It’s available now digitally; March 1 if you want to buy a Blu-ray or DVD edition; or if you’re in the Los Angeles area, you can get free tickets to the World Premiere on February 13. The “family-friendly event” starts at noon at The Paley Center for Media (465 North Beverly Drive in Beverly Hills). It will include a post-screening interactive panel discussion, photo […]
