I want to start this by saying I really, really want this to be good. Hell, I want it to be great. These trailers are not giving that much hope though. This one is a lot better than the last, but it's still not good. For everything you see that makes you feel a little better about this going in, you see just as much that makes you want to run away as fast as possible. Some of the effects look better than the last time around. Then, you get to the first shots of Medusa using her hair. All I could do was shake my head. They keep pumping this IMAX thing through the whole trailer, & I hope they realize they are just giving us a bigger canvas to tear apart their art. The acting looks high school play quality at times. I just don't know if this thing stands a chance. This thing just needs a proper budget. It's a lot to try to pull off on a television show budget. Even if it is a huge television show budget, these are actual super-powered heroes on a major scale. I keep thinking this might should've held off for the proper big-screen adaptation. Here's to hoping I'm wrong. I hope Sept 1st this thing blows me away at Imax. Until then what, do y'all think? Let me know down in the comments, like, & share.
Marvel's Inhumans Gets A Trailer To Go With It's New Poster
Inhumans got a new poster a couple days ago followed by the announcement of a trailer to release today. First of all this new poster is way better than the last one. It at least gives you a look at something for someone who don't know who the Inhumans are. Then we get to this trailer. I had already talked about the first picture released, & how I had seen cosplay done better than what was put forth. I bring this back up now because, I feel almost the same about this trailer. I still have high hopes for this, but to me it came off as being almost fan made. Even Lockjaw the Dog, which I thought was the best part of this trailer by the way, came off looking like a special effect. Even the sets screamed fan film. I know this is a television series & budgets aren't going to be the size of the theatrical films, but I figured with this thing being shot in Imax & debuting in Imax they'd come with it. At least for the pilot. Fingers crossed this thing has enough story to get past all that. We won't know for sure until Sept. 1 when this thing debuts in Imax theaters, but I'm a little worried. What do y'all think of this trailer? Yay or nay? Are we all still excited for Inhumans or am I right to be a little concerned? Let us know in the comments, like. & share.
Did Y'all See The Cast Pics For The Upcoming Marvel "Runaways" & "Inhumans" TV Shows?
Earlier this week two cast pictures were released. One of which via Twitter, the cast of Marvel's Runaways, coming soon to Hulu, about a group of teens who find out their parents belong to a secret evil organization. While the second came from Entertainment Weekly in the form of the fully costumed cast pic of Marvel's Inhumans debuting on Imax Sept 1, & later following up on ABC. You'll see below I've labeled those pictures Exhibit A & Exhibit B. We'll start much like our alphabet with A. All Exhibit A needed was a diverse cast of teens from all different backgrounds. Mission accomplished. That success keeps me fully interested. Then there's Exhibit B. The internet has not been kind. The words cosplay & Walmart Halloween costumes have been thrown around, & I've got to say, not without merit. This is very 1994 Fantastic Four-ish. And maybe it's only because I've seen these done sooo much better by cosplayers. I'm hoping they come off more believable in action, but this picture is not encouraging. It is just a picture, but man. What so y'all think? Leave it in the comments, like, & share...
Marvel's "Inhumans" Teaser Trailer?
If you're wondering why there is a question mark after the title, it's because I'm not sure you can really even call this a teaser trailer. It's more of a movie poster with dialog. Don't expect much even for a teaser in this one. Once again this is kinda aimed to people who are already Inhumans fans. September 1st is still pretty far away though & they have plenty of time to really push this thing onto the casual movie goers they'll need for the Imax premier. What do y'all think? Did you gain some grand insight I might have missed? Let us know in the comments, like, & share.
Marvel's "Inhumans" Gets Imax Poster
Marvel took to Twitter today to release the first Imax release poster for September first's Inhumans. It's definitely geared towards people who are at least somewhat familiar with Marvel's Royal Family. To those for which the name Black Bolt doesn't ring a bell, this poster might as well be blank. I think it's awesome, but I also pick up a significant amount of comic books every Wednesday. I'm not betting on the average movie-goer to have this info though. So while I think it's cool to use Black Bolt's insignia, my Dad would just see some squiggly, lightning bolt looking something's. All in all this is an awesome pitch to the fans, but we're going to need one helluva trailer now to get some Imax theaters filled on Sept 1. What do you think? Dig the poster? Let us know in the comments. Also, let us know if you're familiar with the Inhumans or not just out of curiosity.
Inhumans Medusa Missing Something
So @Hawaii_isla808 has been releasing set photos from Waikiki Beach for Marvel's Inhumans series debuting on Imax Sept. 1 & one just so happened to catch my eye. As you could probably tell by the title of this article it involves Serinda Swan's Medusa & yes, she is missing something. What is that something you ask? Her hair. While still sporting red, it's been shaved to almost nothing. For most characters I would just think, okay, they're changing her look up a little. It wouldn't be the first or last time we get an appearance change from comic to film. This one however has major significance in the fact that Medusa's power is full control of her unbreakable hair. Quite a lame power set if you don't have the hair in the first place. Now I'm all for the rumor the hair will be CGI in the long run, which makes sense as it moves around & there's a lot of it. That's a rumor until we see otherwise though, making me think we might have a powered down Inhuman team. Hopefully we get a trailer soon & put some of this speculation to rest. Let us know in the comments what you think of Medusa's hair or lack there of? While you're there like & share.
Imax Sets Date for Marvel's Inhumans
Imax released the date for the arrival of Marvel's Inhumans. The royal family will hit the enormous screens of Imax theaters in the form of a two episode pilot on Friday, September 1st. This will pop off the series full eight episodes later this fall on ABC. I'm a fan of Marvel's Agent of S.H.I.E.L.D. on ABC. Though I will be the first to admit that it's not the best series ever. In fact, sometimes it's bad, but overall watchable. I've followed a lot worse actual comic book storylines. I guess what I'm saying when it really gets down to it is, though enjoyable, I really hope this outing is better than that one.
