Anyone who's seen my collection can easily glean that I am a big Captain Marvel fan so I am excited to see that DC will be producing a Captain Marvel movie, called Shazam! (for legal reasons) *Ugh*.

With a release date of 2016 I wanted to do an infrequent update on the movies progress. Here is my first update... it's been pushed back to 2019. I do believe they WILL make it since Disney/Marvel is rolling around in dough and DC needs to get SOMETHING in the theaters to compete but seriously, five years!?!?! My daughter in daycare will be in third grade by the time the movie comes out. The only upside is that it will give me more time to build my collection before the possible spike in value.

Now Disney/Marvel has officially announced they will be releasing a Captain Marvel movie... IN 2018!!!!! This is a family friendly message board but I really want to use profanity. I don't know who I'm madder at, Disney for CLEARLY taking aim at WB's groin or Warner Brothers for racing at the speed of a sloth. Warner Brothers will likely get up to speed just as the superhero genre begins to sputter out.
