GPC Episode 59 - X-Men Origins: Wolverine (2009)

The GPC returns as X-Men Month continues!

The research into not being dead brought some success with regeneration, so delving deeper into the origin of the X-Men's Wolverine is the way to go, with X-Men Origins: Wolverine!

How does the franchise fare in its shift from the Last Stand low point to a solo action movie?  Come and find out!

GPC Episode 58 - X-Men: The Last Stand (2006)

The GPC returns with another summer of superheroes, and the start of X-Men Month!  First up is the third film in the franchise, X-Men: The Last Stand!

Does it hold up to the lofty expectations of its two predecessors or does it suffer from superhero sequelitis?  Is Brett Ratner a fair trade for Bryan Singer?  Do they screw up the Dark Phoenix Saga?

Odds are you already know the answers, BUT as always I dig deep to show you the good and, yeah, this one is literally good AND bad like some sort of mutant...  Perfect!

GPC Episode 46 - The Incredible Hulk Returns (1988)

The GPC returns to superheroes AND vikings, with the 1988 TV movie The Incredible Hulk Returns!

Why?  Because Thor Sequel that's why!

This is known as being super cheesy and outright bad, but is it?  I'll have you know it's FAR better than most give it credit for.  Come see!

GPC Episode 44 - Ghost Rider (2007)

Happy Halloween!

The Guilty Pleasures Cinema returns to celebrate spooky month with the original movie that was going to be my first Halloween review (until a veto came in from a vampire hunting president): Ghost Rider!

Come watch one of the most visually impressive comic characters ever in a movie by the director of Daredevil and starring the Cagiest Cage Who Ever Caged!
