Marvel is moving forward with their plan to continue dominating the comic book movie world, and that means looking ahead to the future. That future, just got a little bit more royalty in it. According to The Hollywood Reporter, the studio has hired documentary writer Mark Bailey – who has tackled subjects like AIDS and Abu Ghraib – to write a screenplay for a forthcoming Black Panther movie. The character is the first black superhero in mainstream comics, and the first fictionally African hero as well. The alter ego of Black Panther is, of course, T’Challa – the chief of the Panther Tribe in Wakanda. It’s a bold character that’s ferocious and unafraid to spill a little vein juice. Plus, if a screenwriter is cracking the whip on it now, that means the possibility of a Black Panther cameo/reveal in The Avengers.

The past few weeks have been incredibly light when it comes to DVD Tuesdays, but that streak of limited releases appears to have come to an end.

Titles out this week include Animal Kingdom, Dark Skies, Justified, Freakonomics, Death Race 2, and more. And yes, I was as surprised as you that Takers is worth a rental.

The Rejects put their considerable nerd knowledge to the test in breaking down the secrets of Iron Man 2 gleaned from repeated viewings. What did we find? Oh nothing really, just a map of the Marvel Universe.

The Wakandan King could be coming to the big screen relatively soon.
