Movie Addicts. Celeb Dishers. Gamers. We're All Here.

Dark Horse Comics, the people who brought you comics like Hellboy and a host of Star Wars comics, have just signed a five-year deal with Universal Studios. What this means is that Universal now has carte blanche to develop all Dark Horse characters, properties, and future properties into movies.

It’s true that Dark Horse has some of the best comics out there, and Universal definitely has the mojo and box office might to get some of these comics converted to movies in grand style, but I’m concerned, somewhat. Comic book movies aren’t exactly proven as good sources. Sure, there’s some good examples out there, again, like Hellboy…but there’s also plenty of weaknesses out there, like Constantine. It all sort of depends on how the scripting turns out, but if Universal’s smart enough to put the comic book writers into the movie writing arm, we may well be in for a LOT of fantastic movies.

And until then, try the fantasy movie trivia on Kwanzoo.
