That's A Wrap! #3: The Wrap Is Back!

Hello and welcome to 'That's A Wrap!' The weekly post where I wrap up the film news for this week.

As much as I am excited for The Amazing Spider-Man  2  part of me feels that it is slightly worried about it.  With three villains already set to be involved (Electro, Rhino and Norman Osborn a.k.a. The Green Goblin) it has been rumoured that a fourth villain has been added. If you don't want any spoilers then I'd recommend that you skip this and move onto the next paragraph.  If rumours are true then it looks as though Colm Feore will be playing Adrian Toomes a.k.a. The Vulture.  The Vulture was originally rumoured to be in the once green lit Spider-Man 4  but with that obviously cancelled it looks as though we will finally see this villain on the big screen after all.  The reason I worry about this is because I really do not want another Spider-Man 3 .  I know the film having too many villains wasn't the only flaw but it was a big one.  Maybe director Marc Webb and his script writing crew have sussed out how to juggle all these villains at once.  We will just have to see.  However, this could lead up to the infamous Sinister Six which i would be very excited to see.

On the topic of superhero movies it looks like the Justice League  movie is back in progress after it was reported that director Zack Snyder believes other DC characters do exist in the universe that we has created for Superman.  Whether Znyder will be involved in the Justice League movie or not still has to be confirmed, however writer David S Goyer is writing a script for super hero team movie as well as the sequel to Man of Steel .  Warner Bros. are obviously seeing Marvel as their big rivals and whether a JL movie will work or not is still to be answered.  My opinion is that DC's characters besides Batman are far less interesting compared to Marvel's.  Marvel have also had an outstanding head start while DC seem to be failing with only Christopher Nolan's Dark Knight Trilogy   being a success with both critics and at the box office.  Whether Man of Steel   is a success we will have to see...

Another man of steel who will be returning soon is the Terminator.  It has been reported that Terminator 5 will start shooting next year with Arnie himself returning as the title role.  No director has been confirmed yet after Fast and Furious  director Justin Lin dropped out of the project.  I don't see a valid reason for there to be another Terminator movie but this could be a lot of fun.  I was one of the few you really enjoyed Terminator Salvation  and maybe if we had the amount of action from that film along with Arnie's presence we could have a fun popcorn movie heading our way.  Terminator   films will never be as classic as the first two so now I see these sequels being fun entertainment.

No doubt everyone by now has seen the trailer for The Hobbit: Desolation of Smaug  and have watched it multiple times and are excited for it the release but I want to talk about a different trailer that was released this week.  If you haven't already I would recommend watching the trailer for Alan Partridge: Alpha Papa .  I am not going to spoil anything for you but I found myself laughing out loud whilst viewing this bizzare but hilarious trailer.  Like the trailer for the upcoming The World's End  I found myself laughing more at the concept than the gags.  The gags are still very funny and quotable but I believe a comedy works best when it has a good story to accompany it.  maybe This will make us forget The Keith Lemon Film  and show that The Inbetweeners Movie  wasn't just a fluke.

More movie news coming next week!  Enjoy your weekend!
