Metal Arcade: Zach Kircher writes: While perhaps not the best zombie flick, World War Z is a great summer thrill ride.
If there is any sort of horror device that can draw in a crowd, it’s zombies. However, these days the market has been flooded with so much zombie material that Hollywood is seemingly beginning to run out of ideas for the sub-genre. Studio executives have been turning to previously published works to satisfy their quotas, and the latest of these adaptations is World War Z, the newest film from Brad Pitt and director Marc Forster. Widely publicized for its dramatic departures from Max Brooks’ novel and its troubled production, does this film still have a chance at producing some intense thrills this summer?
After a rough start to 2025 with Brave New World, Marvel hopes to strike back with Thunderbolts. Featuring a ragtag group of misfits from previous MCU movies and a new character that’s insanely powerful, Thunderbolts tells the story of damaged people overcoming their trauma to become heroes. RPadTV host Raymond Padilla is joined by videogame industry veterans Paul Semel and Marcus Beer to discuss the movie and see if it lives up to its comic-book tagline of “Justice, Like Lightning.”
The three will discuss what they liked and didn’t like about Thunderbolts, including their favorite performances and scenes, as well as what could have been improved. Early reviews of the movie have been strong and RPadTV’s version of Thunderbolts (The Sparklers?!?) can’t wait to talk about the latest MCU movie with you.
Deeply disappointed that no one yelled, "Thunder! Thunder! Thunderbolts, ho!"
Good conversation otherwise, though.
The director of the new Evil Dead film wants to leave audiences physically exhausted.
Those pesky log trucks return in Final Destination Bloodlines.
I saw this movie and I had some mixed feelings about the end at first. Overall, I thought it was an EXCELLENT movie!!! The beginning apocalypse scene was just amazing, and the middle was action-packed suspense...I loved it!
