Hello, Fellow CBM Users
           I'm back and none of you probably know who i am so let me give a little backstory. About a year ago i did my first article which was an iron man 3 review and after looking that over i decided to work on my writing skills and try again writing articles at a later day and that day has come.
           
        The 2014 Comic Con is pretty much over and while we did get some pretty nice announcments, i have to say this SDCC was pretty disappointing in terms of what people were expecting. I expected WB/DC to announce who the rock was playing and maybe announcing a solo wonder woman movie but all we got was a teaser trailer for BvS:DOJ and wonder woman picture and while both were really good I think its fair to say people were expecting more

      Fox pretty much gave us NOTHING AT ALL, no fantastic four, no xmen... there was nothing i think they could have at least released an offical picture of the fantasic four in costume since they've been filming for about 2 months. In hinsight though they did say there would be nothing at comic con so i guess we should have listened and trusted them

     Legendary to me was the big winner of the Con with the announcments of which monsters would be in Godzilla 2 and that they were making an orgin story of skull island which is the home island of the MONSTROUS KING KONG!!!(GODZILLA VS KING KONG, ANYONE) Legendary also deserves credit for actually giving us the first true surpise of comic con in some time

    Marvel, the one we've been waiting for, were they finally going to give some of those mysterious release dates, how about who's going to play Dr. Strange. What we got was a release date of GOTG 2(July 27), 2017 and teaser footage of A:AOU(which wasn't relased or leaked to the public!!). This was the biggest let down for me, first why announce several release dates 1 WEEK before Comic Con and announce something we already knew was coming. What happened to Dr. Strange announcments. I love Marvel very much but what they released was very dissappointing.

    Overall, while this comic con had its fair share of announcments and some surprises i was pretty let down by it, but should I and other nerds really be complaining because 10 years ago everything we did get this year would never be announced back then. We're living in a golden age of Comic Book, Sci-fi, and Fantasy films and I know i feel pretty lucky. 

What are your thoughts on this year comic con. comment below and if you read all of this article through I thank you!!
