Blade

Fact From the Vapor of Nuance

All Sides Suit Up To Negotiate the Future of Marvel… Maybe With Blade, Ms. Marvel, Black Panther, and The Runaways?

by Susana Polo | 11:47 am, May 8th, 2013

If you’ve been seeing a lot of news stories lately where Robert Downey, Jr. casually says something to the effect of “I’m not going to be playing Iron Man forever” or “yeah, I’d be interested in seeing who else could be Tony Stark,” it might be informative for you to remember that his contract actually is up to be renegotiated in this post Iron Man 3 era. These seemingly casual remarks are actually the first salvos in the epic game of moneyball that’s about to be played between Downey and Marvel Entertainment over what he’ll be paid to appear in The Avengers 2 and possibly The Avengers 3.

This means that some news outlets are pulling out all their unnamed sources to talk some straight insider talk about the contract negotiations between Downey, all of his Avengers co-stars, and Marvel. So you should take this with a grain of salt, but one of those news outlets is claiming that Marvel is mulling over script ideas for some pretty exciting secondary characters.

8 Great Monster Hunters

by The Mary Sue Staff | 12:26 pm, October 24th, 2012

Depending on which universe you live in, monster hunting can be lucrative business. Or not so lucrative, as the Ghostbusters have discovered from time to time. Monsters are, well, monstrous, and not many people can claim affection for them. So what’s a person to do? Kill them, of course! Some of the hunters we’ve included on this list work for an organization and/or get paid for their trouble, but most hunt down creatures of the night for revenge, for fun, or for some combination of both.

George Takei Calls For An End To The Star Wars, Presents A Common Enemy [VIDEO]

by Jill Pantozzi | 1:16 pm, December 12th, 2011

So you know there’s this weird feud that’s been going on between Star Trek’s William Shatner and Star Wars’ Carrie Fisher? First, Shatner talked smack about Star Wars. Then Fisher made a video trashing Star Trek. Then things got even more uncomfortable when Shatner made another video escalating things. I was patiently awaiting Fisher’s next installment  but we’ve got a surprise contender! Trek’s George Takei has entered the ring, not to back up his fellow cast member but to call for Star Peace! He also offers up a common enemy they could all rally against. You’ll never guess what is is. Hint: it’s something sparkly.

This video game me chills.
