Awesome Marvel

Before you have a full-on nerdgasm, this isn’t a real film, but a fan edit by MR8866 & Alex Luthor (nice name), which envisions a universe in which intellectual property rights mean nothing and all comic book characters could freely roam.

Honest Trailers reminds us just how silly the concept was for what somehow became the most fun and popular movie of 2014. When you really think about it, the premise sounds like something that should have been a box office flop.

Marvel’s Agent Carter is an 8-episode TV series about Peggy Carter, a British secret agent who helped fight HYDRA during World War II. The show is set in 1946, shortly after the war ended and her love Steve Rogers disappeared.

Comics Alliance made this neat chart that catalogs the announced lineup of superhero movies from Marvel/Disney, Warner Bros., Sony and Fox. 2017 is crazy packed. We can’t wait for Black Panther and LEGO Batman.

The alternate debut trailer for Avengers: Age of Ultron starts out with a lighthearted scene about Thor’s hammer. Perhaps this was supposed to be the original trailer, but after it got leaked Marvel rushed the other one out.

It’s official. Disney will release a limited edition replica of the Guardians of the Galaxy Awesome Mix Vol. 1 cassette tape. It will be exclusive to Record Store Day outlets from 11/28 to 12/31 and will come with a digital copy of the album.

The Honest Trailers guys do their best to disrespect what was actually a good movie that was overshadowed by two other great Marvel movies released in the same year. Though their Terminator 2 plot observation is a little too true.

Saturday Night Live pokes fun at Marvel’s successful movie adaptation of the relatively obscure Guardians of the Galaxy. A Deadpool & Moon Knight movie could be weirder than all of these. Unofficial YouTube mirror here.

Sideshow Collectibles’ Marvel 1/6 Scale Merc with a Mouth comes with 6 pairs of hands, 2 heads, 3 blades, 3 guns, and of course speech bubbles. The Sideshow exclusive also comes with a zombie head. Pre-orders start 9/25 for $230.

Guardians of the Galaxy star Chris Pratt gives a Cribs-style tour of the set that they used for the Milano, Star-Lord’s ship in the movie.The ship’s comic book name would’ve been more fitting of its owner’s character.

MTV points out the Easter eggs from the past nine Marvel Studios movies – Iron Man to Captain America: The Winter Soldier – from Stan Lee’s cameos, hints to future movies and numerous references to Marvel’s comics.

Freelance illustrator and diehard Deadpool fan Marco D’Alfonso loves to mashup comic book characters and covers with pop culture, often as submissions to Comic Book Resources’ contests. We’d share all of his art here if we could.

1/6th scale action figures of Groot and Rocket Raccoon based on the Guardians of the Galaxy movie. Both come with extra interchangeable hands and Rocket has his rifle. The 2-in-1 set has additional Groot head and hands.

Whether he did it on purpose or not, YouTuber MR8866 satirizes bombastic, VFX-drenched summer blockbusters by combining just about every major franchise into one flick. Hollywood, just make this movie and get it over with.

Ronan the Accuser speaks, Star-Lord’s teammates keep asking him the same stupid question and the Guardians bicker about percentages in the latest trailer for Guardians of the Galaxy. Damn, Groot.

Get a glimpse of Star-Lord’s back story, the villain Ronan the Accuser and some passive aggressive banter between Star-Lord and Rocket Raccoon in the third trailer for Guardians of the Galaxy. #GiveVinDieselanOscar.
