Iron Man & Hulk: Heroes United Minimate Offer

The Blu-ray and DVD are headed our way December 3rd with the mind blowing CGI that made that Max Steel cartoon from some years back so damn..umm..popular? appealing? cutting edge? Listen, we know if you are a die hard Marvel fan, you're probably not looking forward to this DVD, and I can already report I attempted to show the film to a bunch of friends last weekend and we got 20 minutes or so in before we unanimously voted to switch over to some film with Sam Jackson cursing a lot (which could mean one of 500 films). Hulk makes constipated faces, Iron Man sounds like Spider-Man and the main bad guy appeared to be Zzzax..which is about as exciting as it sounds. One shining moment has Hulk using Iron Man as a club, but that's as awesome as it gets..well..in the initial moments we've watched so far...but I digress.

Marvel Back to Animated Features

It's been a very long time since Thor: Tales of Asgard. Did you catch that film? Neither did I. That was 2011. Now, fresh from the success of The Avengers with legions of fans wondering what a company like Disney might do with a blockbuster stable of characters and access to animation technology that is, no doubt, the best on the planet..Marvel answers the call for new direct to DVD animated features....or ANYTHING awesomely animated!

The project is called "Iron Man and Hulk: Heroes United". ~snore~ The title just smacks of the Avengers: Earth's Mightiest Heroes cancellation in favor of something more kid friendly...even though they also cancelled Super Hero Squad..which was specifically for kids. ~grumble~ EW.com reports the pair of heroes will take on Zzzax, a creature of pure energy you may remember from pas Hulk comics.
