Guardians of the Galaxy, Marvel Superhero Team, 2014

From clipartsfree.net
Guardians of the Galaxy is going to stand on the foundations of the comics of 2008. In this storyline, aliens join forces against combatants like Thanos and Ronan the Accuser who is an affiliate of Accuser Corps. The Corps are military administrators of government and jurists.

Thanos tries continually to court Mistress Death, which is born out in the comics. His big play was grabbing the Infinity Gems. These jewels have immense power.

Nebula the space pirate is in the movie. She had formerly captured the huge spaceship, Sanctuary II, that Thanos had commanded.

The movie is sure to be an action, adventure, edge of your seat ride. The cheeky Peter Quill steals a secretive orb that Ronan lusts after, and a bounty hunt ensues. Quill joins in a letup of differences with four oddballs to dodge Ronan's fierce manhunt: Groot, a human kind of tree, Gamora, Thano's adopted daughter, Rocket, a gun packing raccoon, and Drax the Destroyer.

Quill learns of the authentic power of the stone, and the threat Ronan that would wield with it in his possession. He decides to assemble his oddball opponents against a huge menace to the universe.

It hits the theaters 08/01/14.

The Fly 1958 and 1986

The original movie, The Fly, was adapted from a short story written by George Langelaan. It appeared in Playboy in June of  1957. The original movie came out in 1958, the remake in 1986. Howard Shore composed an opera inspired by the plot of the remake.

 There were two sequels: Return of the Fly in 1959 and Curse of the Fly in 1965. This is quite a feat for a short story if we think of it as having a persona. Quite a bit of attention given to the story and creative energy expended beyond and including Langelaan's spark and flame.

This is the plot: A dreadful accident ensues when a scientist played by Vincent Price tries out his new invention: a teleportation  apparatus. Jeff Goldblum plays the scientist in the 1986 version.

The Rotten Tomatoes tomatometer scores the 1986 version at 91%.
