The Boba Fett Sixth Scale Figure captures the galactic legend of this feared bounty hunter in a never-before-seen way. Boba Fett features uniquely sculpted Mandalorian armor, including his iconic helmet with an articulating rangefinder, a flight suit and vest with body plate armor, knee pads, and weaponized wrist gauntlets. Each aspect of the newly crafted armor is detailed with distinctive Mythos weathering effects, telling the story of many hard-fought battles to capture some of the galaxy’s most elusive bounty. Boba Fett’s unique costume also includes a worn fabric poncho, a kama skirt with utility pouches, ankle spats, and several belts with side and waist pouches.

The Boba Fett Sixth Scale Figure packs a full arsenal of dangerous weaponry, including a removable Z-6 jetpack with articulating rocket boosters, four multi-purpose shin tools, and a tactical knife with an ankle-mounted sheath. He also features a variety of firepower, including an EE-3 carbine blaster rifle, a concussion grenade launcher, a BlasTech DLT-19 heavy blaster rifle with camo wrapping, and a Sacros K-11 blaster pistol. The figure comes with eight interchangeable hands, including a pair of fists, a pair of neutral hands, a pair of grip hands, a right trigger hand, and a left rifle support hand.

Every bounty hunter needs trophies to prove their skill- Boba Fett comes with three shoulder-mounted synthetic-hair Wookiee braids, and three unique lightsaber hilts taken from his fallen targets.

Kate Mara Reflects on Her Fantastic Four Regrets

Kate Mara Reflects on Her Fantastic Four Regrets

Kate Mara Reflects on Her Fantastic Four Regrets

Many fans would rather pretend that Josh Trank’s critically-maligned Fantastic Four reboot never happened. Regardless, the movie’s well-documented shortcomings essentially guarantee that we’ll be talking about it for years to come. This is mainly because every so often, someone close to the film has something new to say about it. This week, that honor falls to Kate Mara, who starred in the reboot as Sue Storm/Invisible Woman. In a new sit-down with Collider, Mara alluded to the abusive treatment she experienced while working with Trank (via SuperHeroHype).

Mara was expanding on comments she made while speaking to Emmy Magazine last month. In that interview, she described her Fantastic Four experience as “horrible” and wished that she “responded differently to certain things.” She didn’t go into detail or mention Trank by name, but she did imply that sexism was involved somehow. She also explained how that experience has stayed with her for the last five years.

“I think that the thing that I always go back to on that one is that I think I should have followed my instincts more,” said Mara. “Like when my gut was telling me, ‘You probably shouldn’t let that slide, what that person just said.’ Or if you’re feeling a certain way about what an energy is like and how that is affecting your performance. You’re being paid to do a certain thing. And if something is in the way of that, you have the right to speak up and say, ‘I’m actually not able to do what I am here to do because of X, Y and Z.’”

Of course, Fantastic Four wasn’t a complete disaster for Mara. She later married her co-star, Jamie Bell (Ben Grimm/The Thing), and the couple had their first child together last year. But her experience did remind her how important it is to speak up when something doesn’t feel right.

“I think that speaking up is something that I think that we all probably learn it over and over again, to follow your instincts and if you’re feeling a certain thing that is uneasy or whatever, there’s a reason for it,” added Mara. “But, because it was such a big movie and again, usually, except in this case, when you’re in a big superhero movie they usually do incredibly well, like almost always. So even if it’s challenging, or this or that, or not everything’s perfect, it’s probably good for you to do it.”

CS Soapbox: Marvel’s Moon Knight vs. DC’s Batman

Oscar Isaac has been cast to play Moon Knight in Disney+’s upcoming series set in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, with filming set to begin shortly. Casual moviegoers/non-comic-book enthusiasts (who haven’t payed attention to the latest in Keanu Reeves fan art) are probably asking themselves: “Who is Moon Knight?” Similarly to how Hawkeye is basically Green Arrow and Namor resembles Aquaman, Moon Knight is Marvel’s response to DC’s Bruce Wayne AKA Batman AKA THE Dark Knight. In fact, Moon Knight has drawn so many aesthetic comparisons to Batman -one of the most popular superheroes of all-time- that he gets lost in the cape crusader’s silhouette.

RELATED: Oscar Isaac in Talks to Lead Disney+’s Moon Knight Series!

Anyway, how do the two compare? Well, they’re both skilled hand-to-hand combatants and rich, using seemingly limitless wealth to fund their vigilante exploits, as well as create useful technology/gadgets. Where Batman has his Batmobile, grappling hook, utility belt and Batarangs, Moon Knight has his Mooncopter, Moonrangs and crescent-shaped glider. Moon Knight even has a rogues’ gallery, not unlike Batman’s. On top of all that they’re some of the “World’s Greatest Detectives.” 

The characters’ key differences lie with their backstories/origins. As a young boy, Bruce famously witnesses his parents Thomas and Martha’s murder in the streets of Gotham, prompting his self-righteous war on crime using nothing but his mind, body and billions of dollars. His prowess as a crime fighter ultimately leads to his association with the Justice League… but you already know all this. 

RELATED: Moon Knight: Egyptian Filmmaker Mohamed Diab to Helm MCU Series

Marvel’s Moon Knight, created in 1976 by Batman writer Doug Moench, has superpowers (point for Batman). Originally introduced as a villain in Werewolf by Night #32 but then recast as a hero (1976), Moon Knight became Marc Spector, a rabbi’s son who trades in being a boxer before joining the military. Years later, working as a mercenary, Marc has a near-death encounter with the Egyptian moon god Khonshu, who gives Marc a second chance at life -superpowers and all- if the latter agrees to a symbiote-esque partnership. Moon Knight’s abilities, such as increased strength and speed, are dependent upon the lunar cycles. The height of his power is when the moon is full. 

Using the wealth he accumulated as a mercenary, Marc creates two new secret identities: Steven Grant, a millionaire/businessman, and Jake Locksley, a taxicab driver. Living as Steven, Jake, and Moon Knight (largely ignoring Marc), taxes his psyche, leading to an identity crisis. The resulting schizophrenia becomes a staple of Moon Knight’s character, his mental illness making him erratic and unpredictable, especially when he fights. 

RELATED: Moon Knight Series Adds The Witcher Writer Beau DeMayo

In the comics, Moon Knight goes on to become a member of Hawkeye’s West Coast Avengers (for a time) and remains one of Marvel’s most complex characters, also becoming an addict at one point. The physiological aspect of Moon Knight’s story will undoubtedly play heavily into the Disney+ series and his implementation into the MCU. With Isaac on board, it’s sure to be a good time, one that will free Moon Knight from Batman’s shadow once and for all. 

But who would win in a fight? Batman. Batman always wins.

Solstice Studios sets Mark Wahlberg-led Joe Bell for awards season release

It’s been nearly a decade since Mark Wahlberg last saw Oscar and Golden Globe nominations for his work in the sports drama The Fighter, but Solstice Studios believes it’s his time again as they have set his upcoming biographical drama Joe Bell for an awards season release of February 19, 2021, according to Variety.

RELATED: Focus Features Sets Justin Chon’s Blue Bayou for Summer 2021 Release

Joe Bell, previously titled Meet Joe Bell, tells the true story of Oregonian father Joe Bell (Wahlberg) who sets out on a walk across America to raise awareness for bullying after his 15-year-old son, Jadin (Reid Miller), commits suicide after being subjected to torment by his peers for being gay. Following its debut at the Toronto International Film Festival in September, where it received generally mixed reviews from critics though praise was showered onto Miller’s performance, Solstice acquired the rights to the film for $20 million, with the studio working with the filmmakers and Wahlberg to develop a new cut of the film.

The version of the film that was screened at Toronto was very promising, and after working with the filmmakers and Mark Wahlberg on a revised cut, we feel it has now reached its full potential,” Mark Gill, President and CEO of Solstice Studios, said in a statement. “Thanks to a lot of hard work as well as the addition of a new original end title song from legendary songwriter Diane Warren, we believe this film now has newfound power and emotional potency that substantially elevates its very important message. We are grateful to the filmmakers and cast for bringing us the opportunity to carry on the work Joe Bell started.

The film hails from Academy-Award winning Brokeback Mountain screenwriters Diana Ossana and Larry McMurtry, with Reinaldo Marcus Green (King Richard) in the director’s chair; and will be produced by Daniela Taplin Lundberg (Honey Boy) of Stay Gold, Riva Marker and Jake Gyllenhaal of Nine Stories, Eva Maria Daniels of Vision Chaos, Cary Fukunaga of Parliament of Owls, Ryan Ahrens of Argent Pictures (Hacksaw Ridge), Wahlberg, and Stephen Levinson. Argent Pictures and Hercules Film are co-financing the film.

This is a story that is very important to me personally,” Wahlberg said in a statement. “Joe Bell is a man who didn’t understand certain things about the world until he was faced with them in his own life — as a father. As a parent myself, I know how much fatherhood can change a man. This is a story told from a very personal point of view, from the heart of a man who walked from town to town to reach families just like his, delivering a message of tolerance to people who often didn’t want to hear it at first. It shows us how a series of small steps can add up and make a big difference for the people in this country who need to know they are loved and accepted.

Jill Ahrens, Ben Renzo, Tony Parker, Derick Brooks, Michael Finley, and Drew Brees are executive producing for Argent Pictures. Good Joe Bell will also be executive produced by Ossan McMurtry along with Paris Kassidokostas-Latsis, Terry Dougas and Jean-Luc De Fanti for Hercules and Rhea Films.

Zack Snyder Talks Justice League 2 & Carla Gugino as Catwoman

Zack Snyder Talks Justice League Sequel Plans & Carla Gugino as Catwoman

Zack Snyder Talks Justice League Sequel Plans & Carla Gugino as Catwoman

In a recent League of Mayhem livestream appearance with The Nerd Queens, Zack Snyder has opened up about the future of Justice League beyond the HBO Max miniseries, confirming that he already has ideas for a potential sequel involving a story about Ray Porter’s Darkseid.

“If you said to any of the actors in the movie ‘well what happens in the movie’ or ‘what happens later’ or whatever for any movie. And they go ‘well I got the script and it’s cool and I kind of know this and-‘ so [Ray Porter] and I were talking about this and what’s cool or what’s the right response to some questions,” Snyder said. “It’s a fair question to ask me, you know, like what do I say to the world about, you know, what happens when Darkseid comes to Earth? Then what? You know, Is that a thing? And I think, listen, the truth is that, did I write and did I have and conceive a complete- do I know what happens when Darkseid… yes. I do know what happens. To say and to speculate about what that is and that that would be exciting, I think that’s a fine thing.” 

During the same livestream, when a fan suggested that frequent collaborator Carla Gugino (Sucker Punch, Watchmen) would have been a great Catwoman for Ben Affleck’s version of Batman, Snyder immediately agreed by providing the backstory of how Gugino’s Selina Kyle would have fit into Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice.

“Probably I would say Carla’s Catwoman [is perfect],” Snyder said. “You would have to say, there’s a flashback to ten years ago, where [Batman and Catwoman] were a thing. And then he had to arrest her, I don’t know what happened, or he had to let her go, and it tweaked him. And now, who knows what she’s doing now, she’s running some sort of international antiquities or something, and he needs to retire, and they find each other. Yeah, I do think Carla is — yeah, she is good.”

RELATED: Kevin Costner Will Neither Confirm Nor Deny Appearance in the Snyder Cut

Zack Snyder’s Justice League will reportedly cost around $70 million in order to properly finish the editing and visual effects of the director’s original vision, as well as the additional photography. The original post-production crew is also expected to return along with the cast members to record additional dialogue for the cut. 

It was revealed at DC FanDome that the movie will release on HBO Max in 2021 by being broken up into four one-hour parts that will also be released as one four-hour film.

Fueled by the hero’s restored faith in humanity and inspired by Superman’s selfless act, Justice League sees Bruce Wayne enlist the help of his newfound ally, Diana Prince, to face an even greater enemy. Together, Batman and Wonder Woman work quickly to find and recruit a team of metahumans to stand against this newly awakened threat. But despite the formation of this unprecedented league of heroes—Batman, Wonder Woman, Aquaman, Cyborg, and The Flash—it may already be too late to save the planet from an assault of catastrophic proportions.

Released in November 2017, the film earned mixed reviews from critics and audiences alike, praising the action and performances from Gadot and Miller while criticizing every other aspect of the film, namely the inconsistent tone that many fault Joss Whedon (The Avengers) for after taking over directorial duties from Snyder. With a large budget of $300 million and a break-even point of $750 million, the film is considered a box office bomb having grossed only $658 million.

Bram Stoker’s Dracula Starring Bela Lugosi

15 years after the novel’s publication, Dracula creator and author Bram Stoker passed away. He never got a chance to see how actor Bela Lugosi’s ground-breaking stage and screen portrayal of his character electrified and terrified audiences in the late 20s and early 30s. This performance became iconic and set the standard by which all actors taking on the caped mantle would be judged. With a story so rich in detail and atmosphere, the version of Dracula that Lugosi starred in departed significantly from Stoker’s original gothic tale. Now, for the first time, Bram Stoker’s classic tale of horror and Bela Lugosi are properly introduced in an all-new graphic novel. With the cooperation of Lugosi LLC, Artist El Garing, Art Director Kerry Gammill, and adaptor Robert Napton take us on a journey into the heart of Stoker’s masterpiece and reminds modern audiences why Bela Lugosi is Dracula
