Who Are The Timekeepers And What Could Their Comic History Mean For Loki

Who Are The Timekeepers And What Could Their Comic History Mean For ‘Loki’? By Joshua Meyer/June 8, 2021 8:00 am EST It’s hard to believe it’s been over two years since Avengers: Endgame, but when Loki hits Disney+ on Wednesday, it will mark the long-awaited return of Tom Hiddleston’s character, who teleported out of the movie with the Tesseract in April 2019. Since then, the world has undergone a pandemic and the Marvel Cinematic Universe has pivoted to the small screen, with WandaVision, The Falcon and The Winter Soldier, and now, Loki, luring Marvelites to Disney’s streaming service, even as Black Widow revs up to finally lure them back to theaters this summer....

‘Infinite’ Review: This Blah Reincarnation Sci-Fi Action Flick Should Be Sent To Digital Purgatory By Chris Evangelista/June 10, 2021 7:01 am EST “There are among us a people gifted with a perfect memory of all their past lives. They call themselves Infinites!” So says Mark Wahlberg less than a minute into Infinite, the hacky and dreadfully blah sci-fi action pic from director Antoine Fuqua.

‘The Suicide Squad’ Review: James Gunn Serves A Splatter-Filled Superhero Romp With A Sprinkling Of Sweetness By Hoai-Tran Bui/July 28, 2021 9:00 am EST Warner Bros. has prided itself in making “director-driven” DC superhero movies, and rarely has that directive paid off as gloriously as it has with James Gunn’s The Suicide Squad.
