Heads up comic fans: Green Lantern opens in theaters today, and whether you're catching the flick this weekend because you're a fan of the comic books, or just a fan of Ryan Reynold's abs (we don't blame you), fact is, there are a few other green-faced characters we love; Some of which we can't wait to see hit the big screen again soon!

GeekSugar — Fri, 03 Jun 2011 12:26:05 PDT

As more and more films are being adapted from popular comic books, it seems every week there's a new superhero gracing the silver screen. X-Men: First Class opens in theaters today, and while BuzzSugar says it helps to revitalize the franchise, there are other comic book adaptations that you love as well. Check out this list of your top picks, and if you don't see your favorites there, share them with us in the comments!

What's the New Hulk Movie's Biggest Challenge?

BuzzSugar — Mon, 12 May 2008 06:30:25 PDT

Recently The LA Times ran a piece that analyzes the bumpy road it's been to bring the latest Marvel comic book hero, The Incredible Hulk, to the big screen.

First and foremost there's the question of "why?" Ang Lee's disappointing stab at it was out in theaters a mere five years ago. Fans feel burned by that adaptation and skepticism lingers that anyone can get it right.

More anxiety grew as the trailer was suspiciously delayed. Now that two trailers have been released it seems fans are feeling better about the film. Then again, behind-the-scenes rumors persist that the movie's star Edward Norton isn't thrilled with some of Marvel's choices. And while the trailers definitely look more action-packed than Ang Lee's movie, those CGI monsters running at each other in the end still strike me as a bit silly.

When all is said and done, I'm wondering if the good buzz will triumph over the bad in time for audiences to get on board by June 13. What do you think is the biggest hurdle the filmmakers are facing in getting people to see their movie? Do you have high hopes for The Incredible Hulk, or not so much?

Check Out the Latest Trailer For The Avengers!

Becky Kirsch — Mon, 06 Feb 2012 07:47:06 PST

The Super Bowl wouldn't be complete without some blockbuster movie trailers, and this year's big game came complete with a fresh look at The Avengers. This spot is short and sweet, mostly focusing on seeing the team assemble and prepare for epic battling. Though the first Avengers trailer is more satisfying and in-depth, this little teaser is keeping us excited for the film's Summer release. Plus, we get a much better look at The Hulk (who actually looks pretty similar to the big green guy we saw in the Ed Norton movie.)

Buzz Blabber: Fans Make Predictions For Breaking Bad Season 5

BuzzSugar — Sun, 16 Oct 2011 03:05:00 PDT

The season four finale of Breaking Bad was so intense that it had many of us atwitter for days after the episode aired. Once we processed all that went down, we couldn't help brainstorming what's in store for the show's final season. See the predictions that readers made, plus thoughts on other hot topics from the week.

Fans have ideas for Breaking Bad's final season

"I just love Breaking Bad. Love it! I can't wait until next season. I do hope that the final season gets the focus back on Jesse and Walt, instead of the supporting characters. Every character is great, but I miss Jesse and Walt!" - likethedirection
"My feeling is that the only real loose end is the fact that Walt and Jesse have thus far largely escaped criminal investigation. So, I'm thinking that for season five, they're going to address that. My prediction: the series ends with them heading off to jail." - mfox327
"I am still shocked that Walt poisoned a little kid to get what he wanted. I'm also wondering what will happen next season. Will Walt and Jesse try cooking again or will they finally quit? I also wonder what Hank's reaction will be to Gus getting killed by the bomb in the nursing home." - scubagurl7

To see how fans reacted to The Avengers trailer and the latest Gossip Girl gossip, just

"Dan and Blair have a brother and sister connection. Please. Blair and Chuck said they would ALWAYS love each other. The end." - ClueMeIn
"I actually haven't seen any fire between Blair and Dan, at least not on Blair's side. She clearly still wants a piece of Chuck - as well she should." - katiemacs
"Chuck is one and only Blair's soul mate! They belong each other!" - 1256867

The Avengers trailer sparks excitement

"I AM SO EXCITED! Hurry up Summer 2012!!" - gd101
"Not my kinda film but it looks intense!" - littlemunchkin
"Looks like a great movie, but this trailer was a little too Tony Stark heavy for me. I really wanted to see more of the other characters, especially Mark Ruffalo as The Hulk." - larisa5656

Gwyneth Paltrow Smiles and Shows Off Her Fitness on Set

Lauren Turner — Tue, 11 Oct 2011 16:15:00 PDT

Gwyneth Paltrow hopped on a bike to film Thanks For Sharing in NYC this afternoon. She changed into a black Stand Up 2 Cancer shirt for another scene with costar Mark Ruffalo after the duo started working together on set this week. Gwyneth made the trip to the East Coast from the UK on Sunday, and she was spotted at the airport with pal Cameron Diaz. The stylish girlfriends partied at The Arts Club and celebrated pal Stella McCartney's birthday during their time in London. Gwyneth may be back to work, but it looks like she's having a great time on set since she tweeted "Shooting in sunny central park. Reminds me of my youth." and was also spotted sharing a laugh with Mark. He's a little more serious in the new trailer for The Avengers, which gives fans a quick glimpse of him in character as The Hulk.

Watch the Explosive, Exciting Trailer For The Avengers!

Becky Kirsch — Tue, 11 Oct 2011 07:36:39 PDT

If you've seen Thor, Captain America, or either of the Iron Man movies, you have a pretty good idea of what you can expect from the first trailer for The Avengers, but that's a big part of the fun. The film calls together those three superheroes, along with Hawkeye (Jeremy Renner), Black Widow (Scarlett Johansson), and The Hulk (Mark Ruffalo). As expected, the group doesn't exactly mesh well when they're called to action by Nick Fury (Samuel L. Jackson), mostly because they've all got different personalities and temperament. Robert Downey Jr. is the center of attention (at least in this preview), with his snark providing the brunt of the comic relief. Still, the jokes are only made better by the reactions of arrogant Thor, nice-guy Captain America, and so on.

Though the actual premise of the story focuses on The Avengers trying to protect the world from Thor's villainous brother, Loki, it's clear that the real story here is the introduction of the group as a whole and the story of how they came together. I'm definitely looking forward to this one, if not just because I've grown to love many of these characters in their own right. The film doesn't open until next summer, but watch the preview (and be sure to stay tuned to the end for your first glimpse of the hulk), when you

Name That Movie: Robot Edition

BuzzSugar — Thu, 06 Oct 2011 03:05:00 PDT

Hulking robots take to the big screen in this week's Real Steel, but high-tech androids, cyborgs, and machines fueled by artificial intelligence have been powering their way through movies for years. While some are evil and clearly non-human, others are friendlier and surprisingly lifelike. For this week's challenge, see how many films you can identify based on images of high tech 'bots.
