Chris Fox

Chris grew up during the Disney renaissance of animation and took his first trip to Disney World when he was ten. Even though he has loved Disney his whole life, his obsession didn't start until he began planning a trip for his honeymoon. Right now, his primary job (at least the one that doesn't pay the bills) is to indoctrinate his daughter with his love of Disney while at the same time convincing his wife to move to Orlando so he can become a tour guide in the parks. He can also be found indulging in his nerdy side (both Disney related and otherwise) at nerdintherealworld.wordpress.com.

Disney Infinity: Marvel Super Heroes

disney-infinity-marvel-super-heroes

I am so excited about this. Disney Infinity announced today that what was referred to as Disney Infinity 2.0 will now be Disney Infinity: Marvel Super Heroes.

The official press release (see below) says that the new set will feature more than 20 Marvel figures and original storyline from comic writer, Brian Michael Bendis.

It will also include a new Toy Box mode that will make sharing levels and games easier and all of the power discs and figures from the first run of Disney Infinity will be compatible with Marvel Super Heroes.

“Disney Infinity was, from the start, built to be an interactive experience where players could bring together their favorite Disney characters and stories to create new Disney memories. With the introduction of Disney Infinity: Marvel Super Heroes, we’re ushering in a new chapter of adventures, featuring a cast of the world’s most popular Super Heroes,” said Jimmy Pitaro, President of Disney Interactive. “Bringing popular and iconic Marvel characters to the Disney Infinity platform truly takes this game to the next level.”

Debuting with the game will be The Avengers themselves (Iron Man, Black Widow, Thor, Captain America, Hulk and Hawkeye) as well as additional Play Sets and characters from other popular Marvel and Disney franchises (I noticed Stitch and Merida in the background of the trailer), which will be announced in the coming months. Disney Infinity: Marvel Super Heroes will be available for the PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 3, Xbox One and Xbox, the WiiU (but not the Wii this time which means I’ll be upgrading before the Fall), PC and iOS tablets and smart phones.

Marvel’s Agents of SHIELD episode 20 preview – Nothing Personal

Last week saw more twists and turns. We lost another agent (can we start a #koeniglives trend? It’s worked before) and Skye discovered the truth about Ward. Unfortunately, she’s now alone on the bus with him. The rest of the team learned more about Coulson’s… Read More »Marvel’s Agents of SHIELD episode 20 preview – Nothing Personal

Star Wars and Disney Discard Expanded Universe For Alternate Universe

Will We Ever See Wolverine And Spider-Man Join The Avengers?

Well, that depends on who you ask. You may or may not know this, but not all Marvel movies are created equal. By that, I mean that Marvel doesn’t put out all of the movies that have their characters in them. Fox owns the movie… Read More »Will We Ever See Wolverine And Spider-Man Join The Avengers?

Agents of SHIELD episode 19 preview – The Only Light In The Darkness

Last week’s episode was not the most action-packed episode. The focus seemed to be more on setting up the final four episodes. But, for critics who felt like there needed to be more Easter eggs (a criticism that I never fully understood), this was the… Read More »Agents of SHIELD episode 19 preview – The Only Light In The Darkness

Agents of SHIELD episode 18 preview – Providence

When they said that no one can be trusted, they weren’t kidding. Last week, we got not one, but two betrayals. Overall, it was another great episode, though I’m very disappointed with what happened to Agent Hand. She’s a strong character in the comics and… Read More »Agents of SHIELD episode 18 preview – Providence
