Marvel’s “Captain America: Civil War” finds Steve Rogers leading the newly formed team of Avengers in their continued efforts to safeguard humanity. But after another incident involving the Avengers results in collateral damage, political pressure mounts to install a system of accountability, headed by a governing body to oversee and direct the team. The new status quo fractures the Avengers, resulting in two camps—one led by Steve Rogers and his desire for the Avengers to remain free to defend humanity without government interference, and the other following Tony Stark’s surprising decision to support government oversight and accountability.

We see Peter Parker back in his room after the fight checking out some new gadget he (presumably) got from Tony Stark. It is a projector of some sort emitting red light towards the ceiling. Aunt May enters the room with some ice in a towel, and Peter quickly folds his arm to hide the gadget. He mentions that he got a beating from someone named Steve from Brooklyn and that the other guy was huge. After Aunt May leaves the room, he continues to project the gadget towards the ceiling and the camera pans up, to show a Spider-Man logo with some text and what appears to be buttons or something similar around it. The screen fades to black and we see the message: Spider-Man will return.

Memoriam: In Loving Memory of Mitzu

Elstree 1976 (2015)*

Title: Elstree 1976
Rating: NR

IMDb

In 1976, during the hottest summer on record, Star Wars was shot in suburban North London. Nobody involved had any idea how big the film would become, many couldn’t even remember the title.

Yet for the bit-part actors and extras, their faces hidden in masks and helmets, this seemingly insignificant job would go on to colour their lives even four decades later.

ELSTREE 1976 is a portrait of a cross-section of these people; from the man inside the most iconic villain in film history to the guy whose character was completely cut from the final film. It tells the stories of their lives and explores the eccentric community they have formed, traveling the world, signing autographs for fans.

Pelé. A name known around the world, a sports legend who changed soccer forever, and a national hero who carried the hopes and dreams of a country on his back. But before he was an icon, he was a kid from the slums of São Paulo, Brazil, so poor that he couldn’t afford a real soccer ball. Charting his meteoric rise—from scrubbing floors to support his family to honing his electrifying playing style on the streets to leading Brazil’s national team to its first World Cup victory at the age of 17—Pelé vividly brings to life the greatest sports story of the 20th century.

Starring: Nick Robinson, Common and Cary Elwes
Release Date: 5/6/2016

Charlie (Nick Robinson) is a smart, privileged eighteen-year-old with a mile-wide reckless streak. That personality cocktail lands him in a Utah rehab ranch from which he promptly escapes, assisted by his best friend, Adam (Toronto’s Devon Bostick). Charlie’s father (Princess Bride star Cary Elwes) is running for governor and can’t afford to have a volatile son with a taste for expensive drugs threatening to derail his campaign. And so it’s off to a new rehab, run by Travis (Common), who stands a better chance of gaining Charlie’s trust. But Charlie also meets Eva (Morgan Saylor) at the rehab, and she’s exactly the kind of trouble Charlie likes — as clever, verbal, and messed up as he is. They both know that relationships are forbidden among residents, but they’re headed for love, no matter what the cost.
