Your Top Five Superheroes Of 2012 Are...

Posted 12/27/12 9:39 am EST by in Commentary, Hot Stuff

With Loki reigning as your pick for Best Supervillain of 2012 (not to mention his status as one of our Heroes of 2012, which is, we admit, kind of awkward), the time has come to assemble a group of superheroes to take him down. With over 15,000 votes cast in our poll for the Best Superhero of 2012, the results are in for your top five heroes.

(Spoiler: most of them are very mighty!)

Dark Knight

5. Batman
Eight years of retirement couldn't stop the big bad Bat from making one hell of a comeback in "The Dark Knight Rises." Though Bruce Wayne has hung up his cape and cowl for good now, he put on one final rager of a show in "Rises," bringing all of his might to bear upon Bane and Talia al Ghul.

Your Top Five Supervillains Of 2012 Are...

Posted 12/26/12 10:14 am EST by in Commentary, Hot Stuff

We asked you to vote, and vote you did! Thousands of votes were cast for the Best Supervillain of 2012 poll, and today, we present to you the results. Read on to see who you voted as the Top Five Supervillains of the year.

Marion

5. Talia Al Ghul
The secret villain behind Batman's final battle clocks into our list at the number five spot. She might have had the silliest looking death of the year, but there's no doubting the damage Talia unleashed upon the people of Gotham City and the spirit of its greatest defender. Plus, Marion Cotillard is one hell of a liar, which surely earned her some points.

The Dark Knight Rises Over 2012: A GIF Guide

Posted 12/7/12 2:24 pm EST by in Commentary, DC Comics, Hot Stuff

Dark Knight Rises

Even if "Avengers" ruled over 2012, it didn't happen without stiff competition from the Caped Crusader. The second highest-grossing film of the year and the end of an era, "The Dark Knight Rises" brought Christopher Nolan's epic Batman trilogy to its natural conclusion. It was a full circle ending, one that, in retrospect, we should have seen coming, but didn't because of that signature Nolan-wizardry he's perfected over the years.

Relive the greatness of "The Dark Knight Rises" and its reign in 2012 with our handy GIF guide!

POLL: Who Was The Best Supervillain Of 2012?

Posted 12/6/12 1:00 pm EST by in Hot Stuff, Polls

Supervillains

In a year of excellent comic book movies populated by excellent superheroes, it would be foolish to dismiss 2012's excellent villains: a boy who became mad with power, an assassin with a decaying touch, a time-traveling alien, a vengeful trickster god, a science experiment gone wrong, a back-breaking terrorist and his duplicitous lady love, and the queen of a dystopian drug empire.

From Loki to Bane and beyond, here are your picks for Best Supervillain of 2012. Vote for your champion in the poll below, and tune in later this month for the results.

Posted 12/4/12 10:20 am EST by in Casting Call, Commentary, Hot Stuff, Marvel

Dane DeHaan is Harry Osborn. But who should play his dad? Between a reference to the ailing Oscorp figurehead in the first "Amazing Spider-Man" to DeHaan's casting, it's only a matter of time before we find out who is playing Norman Osborn — the man who ultimately becomes Spidey's arch-nemesis, the Green Goblin.

Norman Osborn

Before Sony and Marc Webb have a chance to announce their choice (assuming Norman's in the movie at all), we wanted to get a jump-start with our own list of actors perfect for Osborn. Click on for our Norman Osborn casting call!

Seven X-Men Bryan Singer Should Bring Back

Posted 11/28/12 10:31 am EST by in Commentary, Hot Stuff, Marvel

"X-Men: Days of Future Past" will combine new mutants with old ones, as Bryan Singer has officially announced the return of Patrick Stewart and Ian McKellen to the Marvel franchise. And that's not all: Singer teased that there's "more to come" as far as big casting news is concerned.

X-Men

Clearly, it's not just the returning "First Class" players like James McAvoy and Michael Fassbender that Singer is bringing into the fold. He's looking into his own "X-Men" past for some new (old?) recruits. Assuming that Stewart and McKellen aren't the last of the old "X-Men" guard to be asked back, then, we're left to wonder… who else from the original trilogy deserves a spot on the "Days of Future Past" roster? Read on to see our list!
