Sure, The Avengers may have made over a billion dollars worldwide and vindicated Joss Whedon's career, but Whedon wants you all to know that just because he wrote and directed one of the single best summer blockbusters of all time, that doesn't mean he's getting $100 Million for the sequel. Entertainment Weekly reports ... Since the massive opening weekend release of Iron Man 3, there have been several reports surfacing around the web about MORE
With The Avengers making a ton of money at the box office and thus cementing half a dozen bankable characters on which to base lucrative movies, Captain America is getting a sequel called Captain America: The Winter Soldier. No, I have no idea what that means; yes, you can probably get away with a "The Winter Soldier is coming" joke if you're willing to stretch for that one. Anyway, Scarlett Johansson is reportedly going to be appearing in the MORE
Since The Avengers made enough money for Disney to fill an Olympic swimming pool with beluga caviar and sail across it in yachts made out of gold and mink fur, it probably shouldn't be too surprising that they're already planning on turning it into a TV show. So prepare yourselves for the best news ever, as ABC has ordered a pilot from Joss Whedon for a show called S.H.I.E.L.D., which will focus on Nick Fury's law enforcement gang. Entertainment MORE
The Avengers was an awesome movie, we all know that by now. And a huge part of that was the fact that it was written by Joss Whedon, a man who knows how to put a bunch of strong, witty characters in a room and have them convincingly work together even though they sometimes hate each other with a passion. Well, good news! He's coming back to write and direct the sequel, and oh my money can't fly out of my wallet fast enough. From HuffPo ... The MORE
Like all internet nerds, I love Nathan Fillion with a white hot-passion and want to dirty-but-not-too-dirty-maybe-some-PG-13-hand-stuff-or-maybe-mouth-stuff-depending-on-the-energy-at-the-time things with him. (That's not weird at all.) Anyway, despite our nerd love, Hollywood does not appreciate the Fillion, which is why even he admits he'll never be in The Avengers sequel, even though he should. DigitalSpy reports: Fillion said of his MORE
Since The Avengers made enough money for Joss Whedon to build a 30-story tall monument of himself tea-bagging Rupert Murdoch as fireworks spell out the phrase "How my nuts taste, biatch?!" in the sky (theoretically speaking anyway ...) it only makes sense to make a sequel. I mean ... seriously, did you see how much money the first one made? Can you imagine doing that again? THEN WHY WOULDN'T YOU? And Scarlett Johansson is already being offered an MORE
Men in Black III, the new installment in the series that you never knew you wanted and still aren't sure you really needed, finally managed to usurp the box office throne from The Avengers, raking in $55 Million over the Memorial Day, which admittedly isn't too shabby for a series we haven't heard from over a decade. Speaking of The Avengers, despite slowing down after nearly a month in theaters, it's still raking in impressive holding onto MORE
Because North America just can't resist the appeal of six major super heroes eating shwarmas, The Avengers brought in another $103.2 Million at the box office this week, bringing its domestic gross to a total of $373.2 Million. The bigger news, however, is that The Avengers' total gross, with international box offices, is estimated to have passed the $1 Billion mark. In related news, Joss Whedon reportedly sent the CEO of 21st Century Fox a MORE
Because Hollywood knows full well that sticking the number two behind the title of a successful movie is an excellent way to MAKE ALL THE MONEY, it really shouldn't come as a surprise that The Avengers is getting a sequel, now that everyone has finally realized the undeniable genius of Joss Whedon and everything he does. Seriously, maybe it's just me, but all of the best parts of the movie were just so characteristically Whedonesque, I actually MORE
Well, we knew it was going to happen: Despite only turning out the second biggest midnight opening gross ever (Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Pt. 2 beat it by a rather wide margin) The Avengers managed to walk off with the biggest opening week gross in history, earning over $200 Million bucks at the North American box office. Bow to Joss Whedon, your new king of everything! Via Huffington Post: That's what Captain America tells the MORE
Remember a few years ago when Joss Whedon was a lovable misfit who made great shows like Firefly and Dollhouse that could never quite get their foot in the door to another season? Well, his latest outing, a little film called The Avengers (maybe you've heard of it?) is set to rake in more money than any other film during its first week of release. Still lovable, but not really a loser anymore. Via Huffington Post: Hulk smash. According to MORE
