Seven Day Geek: Batman, Iron Man 3, X-Men Days Of Future Past, Godzilla, Star Wars

A week is a very long time in the geekverse, with so many talking points it'd be hard for even a superhero (Superman / Matter Eating Lad, takeꦅ your pick) to keep up.

So, we've gathered all the week's biggest geek news in one place, so that those aforementioned pilots can get on with the very serious business of being ind🐲estr🍨uctible / eating stuff.

We'd love to hear what you th🙈ink o⛎f the below universe-shattering events, so comment your thoughts below, and we'll see you next week!

Wꦿithou🐽t further ado, let's get started. But first - what do you think of cars, Superman?

Fair enough!

The Big Event

As keen Game Of Thrones geeks, this makes us very happy indeed.

No announcements have been made as to who Dinklage will be playing, but we desperately hope it's Puck, because that would mean that Singer is planning on introducing Alpha Flight (by far the greatest Canadian super-team, well, aside from Broken Social Scenꦯe maybe) to the X-cinematic universe.

If there's room in your local Odeon for the G✅uardians Of The Galaxy, there'𝓡s space for Alpha Flight.

Good Week To Be...

Charlie Brooꦬker. Not only did the new series of Black Mirror start this week, but .

Maybe life's not so bad after all, eh Charlie?

Most Intriguing Story

, with this the most puzzling of them all.

We assumed it meant Venom is on his way back to the big screen (in Ultimate Spider-Man, the Venom serum was discovered in a very similar lock-up)🎃, but others have taken it to be a Green Goblin reference (check the number on the locker, then cross-reference it with the issue of Spider-Man in which Gobby made his first appearance. Clever, huh?)

Either way, it's great viral marketing.

Marvel Round-Up

Br🀅yan ဣSinger has been doing all sorts of hinting this week.

We look forward to his next nudging spree.

In more rumor news,

But it hasn't all been winks an🌸d whispers from Marvel this week, we got a ꧃ , and .

DC Round-Up

DC-wise,

Also this week, we discovered that .

Which, as anyone who has seen Daredevil with attest, is probably a bad idea.

Speaking of bad ideas, we were sad to hear that the

This.🍰 Can. Not. Happen. Seriously, we'll make one ourse🧸lves if we have to.

We've already started work o🌞n some early concept art (see above)

Delightful Discovery Of The Week

It's🅠 Chewbacca. Riding a squirrel. Fighting Nazis.

Not sure there's anything more we need to say here.

Bad News Of The Week

, going ⛎as far as to claim that the team won't work on the big screen full stop.

He makes some decent points - they are difficult characters to ܫget right - but we can't help but feel Mill💞ar's being a little bit unfair.

You could describe any comic-book character in those terಌms, and they'd sound ridiculous.

"So, he's a littl♎e kid who has no powers, and his outfit is sc𝔉uba gear? What's he called, scuba-boy?"

"So, this rodent man, the 𓄧guy with no powers, who's his main enemy? A clown who also has n♔o powers? This is the worst idea anyone has ever had."

"Okay, so, last chance. The God Of Thunder, very nice. I like it. Wait, he needs help fro✱m an ordinary bloke with a bow an arrow? And a women who can fight with a chair? Get o☂ut of my office."

Good News Of The Week

Which is exactly how we like our movies.
