This is such exciting news. I knew that I had to share it with all you!
DOCTOR STRANGE starts in a familiar way, very reminiscent of
the first IRON MAN movie. Stephen Strange is an intelligent, snarky, self-absorbed
man looking to raise his status and increase his wealth.This all changes when tragedy strikes, and a
new self-discovery story begins.While
this could be the same description of Tony Stark’s story in Iron Man, this is
where the similarities end. Instead using technology to battle war overlords,
Dr. Stephen Strange opens his mind to change fate and reality while battling
mystic beings in this Marvel film.
The Who, What, When, Where And Why You See Doctor Strange
Who Should See Doctor Strange?
If you are a fan of the Marvel movies, then you should
already be in line to see this film.
For those with younger children, please note there is
violence and some graphic accident and hospital scenes.
What Should You Bring With You To Doctor Strange?
The only requirement beyond your movie tickets is your
imagination. Doctor Strange will mystify you with its story and scenery from
the beginning to the end of this film.
When
Right now! The movie was released yesterday. Check your
local listings. We think it's great timing for the release being that he sports facial hair and it's MOVEMBER!
Where Should You See Doctor Strange?
Anywhere they are showing the film in 3D! While I know many
people who are not fans of these types of movies, 3D is actually party of the
experience of this film.It is the best
way to see how the characters shape their reality.
Why Should You See Doctor Strange?
We think you will enjoy this film for so many reasons. It is
an all-around fantastic movie, but there’s much more!
While you will soon understand the phrase,"Dormamu
I've Come To Bargain"
We believethat’s not the
only time a bargain is to be made with Doctor Strange. While you already know
that from pictures that Doctor Strange wears the Eye of Agamotto on a chain around his neck, from the movie posters,
it’s what the eye
contains that may be the bargaining chip that connects the Avengers to the Guardians
Of The Galaxy. Plus while you wait during the credit roll (you know to do
that with all the Marvel movies right?), you see that Doctor Strange is
creating another bargain to connect with someone already familiar. (FYI still
stay until ALL the credits roll for another glimpse of what Doctor Strange will
be up to next). It seems to us that it's just what the doctor ordered!
The next evolution of the Marvel Cinematic Universe brings a founding member of The Avengers to the big screen for the first time with Marvel Studios’ “Ant-Man.” Armed with the astonishing ability to shrink in scale but increase in strength, master thief Scott Lang must embrace his inner hero and help his mentor, Dr. Hank Pym, protect the secret behind his spectacular Ant-Man suit from a new generation of towering threats. Against seemingly insurmountable obstacles, Pym and Lang must plan and pull off a heist that will save the world.
Marvel’s “Ant-Man” stars Paul Rudd as Scott Lang aka Ant-Man, Evangeline Lilly as Hope van Dyne, Corey Stoll as Darren Cross aka Yellowjacket, Bobby Cannavale as Paxton, Michael Peña as Luis, Tip “T.I.” Harris as Dave, Wood Harris as Gale, Judy Greer as Maggie, David Dastmalchian as Kurt, and Michael Douglas as Dr. Hank Pym. Directed by Peyton Reed and produced by Kevin Feige, p.g.a., Marvel’s “Ant-Man” delivers a high-stakes, tension-filled adventure on July 17, 2015.
ANT-MAN Will Ensure You Know #ItsAllConnected
From the moment the movie begins you know what Marvel means when they say #ItsAllConnected. For those who are fans of the Marvel Movies and Marvel Television Shows you can see how they continously link the storylines together. I don't want to give to much away, as I think the less you know about the film, the more you will enjoy it, but Marvel fans will be happy with the way this movie comes together.
What I Liked Most About ANT-MAN
I think ANT-MAN is reminiscent of the first Iron Man film in many ways. It's about a man who goes through a serious life change to begin on his journey. There's a lot of funny scenes a bit of romance and detailed scenes with the villan. How it was different is that unlike Tony Stark, Scott Lang is not a millionaire playboy, instead he is crook wanting to change his ways.
As A Marvel Fan You Know To
Look for S.H.I.E.L.D Easter Eggs
Watch for the STAN LEE Cameo
Stay in your seat when the credits start rolling
Another perk of seeing ANT-MAN in 3D is getting to see the Star Wars - The Force Awakens trailer in 3D too!
Last week we had to opportunity to attend the advanced screening of the new MARVEL film AVENGERS: AGE OF ULTRON
at the Scotiabank Theatre in Toronto thanks to our friends at Walt Disney Studios / Marvel Canada. Being that Diane is new to the Marvel movies, with Guardians of the Galaxy being the first Marvel movie she went to see, I needed to give her the background on all the previous movies that involved the characters known as The Avengers.
My hour long synopsis went from the first Iron Man movie to the most recent Captain America: The Winter Solider and include tidbits about Marvel's Agents of S.H.E.I.L.D. and Agent Carter.
It was a good thing I covered all the bases as a bit of everything was touched on in this film.
What You Will Love About Avengers: Age Of Ultron
This is a 3D film and from the moment it begins you feel like you are in the middle of an action packed video game. With explosions and stunt driving throughout the film you are sure to feel surrounded by the cinematic experience.
I was also having an 80s fan girl experience knowing that LESS THAN ZERO actors Robert Downey Jr. and James Spader were once again reunited to make this film.
This is one of the scenes I enjoyed most, which while it's not an action scene, it is very memorable. I love the quick quips and sarcastic banter that is part of these films.
What Is New About This Film
While the previous films were very story driven, the stories take a bit of a back seat to the action scenes. There are great plot lines in the film, but they are more about the team working out there issues.
A Few Surprises In The Mix
No spoilers here, but there are a few things that will catch you off guard.
Marvel Studios presents “Avengers: Age of Ultron,” the epic follow-up to the biggest Super Hero movie of all time. When Tony Stark tries to jumpstart a dormant peacekeeping program, things go awry and Earth’s Mightiest Heroes, including Iron Man, Captain America, Thor, The Incredible Hulk, Black Widow and Hawkeye, are put to the ultimate test as the fate of the planet hangs in the balance. As the villainous Ultron emerges, it is up to The Avengers to stop him from enacting his terrible plans, and soon uneasy alliances and unexpected action pave the way for an epic and unique global adventure.
