And we’re back! It’s been awhile since I’ve posted anything here, but it’s my blog and that’s life sometimes. Anyway, the new teaser trailer for Thor: Ragnorak hit the net today and I have to admit, I wasn’t expecting to be as bowled over as I was! Cate Blanchett as Hela makes all the sense in the world to me; there’s so much going on in the trailer that it’s hard to talk about all of it! You just have to watch it for yourself! I will say, seeing Thor getting his classic helmet back was one of the highlights for me!
Yes, yes, and double yes!! Finally! At last, I am finally excited for this movie! The previous trailer was kind of eh, but this one…holy crap! It had everything we wanted and so much more! Batman, Superman, Lex Luthor, Doomsday…and did I see Wonder Woman?! Yes, yes I did!
Do you like Super Smash Bros.? Of Course you do! Do you like Final Fantasy VII? If you say anything BUT yes, then why are you reading this?! No matter, it’s time get that adrenaline pumping because Cloud is coming to the much-loved Super Smash Bros. series! The video above showcases a ton of his moves, and by golly, Cloud looks like he’ll be an especially epic character; and can we talk about those finishing moves? The man can cut stages in half! At this point, I might just have to bite the bullet and buy the WII U.
Finally! I, like many comic fans, have been waiting a while for the new Jessica Jones trailer. We’ve seen a few teasers here and there, but nothing really showcasing the show or what we can expect. That all changed today when Marvel released the trailer. While not my favorite superhero, if you can even call Jessica Jones a superhero, it’s hard not to be impressed by the footage. While it’s cool to finally see Luke Cage, David Tennant as the mind-controlling Purple Man stole the show! We get to see the scope of the villain’s power and his sinister nature; only popping out of the shadows briefly, Tennant’s voice is enough to make us fearful for anyone and everyone. Coming out on November 20th, prepare to lock yourself in that weekend for some serious binge watching. If Jessica Jones is anything like Daredevil in quality, then we’re all going to be very happy.
And boy is it beautiful! I’m not one of those guys who looks for every single Easter Egg and detail, rather I merely try and and enjoy the marvelous spectacle that is the new, and final, Star Wars: The Force Awakens poster! I mean, can we just take a moment to appreciate all the glory? The colors! The heroes! The villains; and of course, the lightsabers! Really, this is one of those posters that would look good on my wall, or yours…if you like posters on your wall that is. One question I have though: where’s Luke Skywalker?
Turns out, today was the day of the second trailer’s release. Regardless, I cannot fathom an appropriate response to the level of greatness that you and I have just witnessed. Unfortunately, some of the San Diego Comic Con footage is not in this particular trailer, but that’s okay, you get the general flavor of the movie. Besides, if you’re going to end up seeing the movie anyway, then don’t worry about it. Just know that more fantastical goodness lies in wait!
Officially released yesterday, I can now spread the joy that some people, myself included, got to see at San Diego Comic Con this year. Despite it only being a teaser trailer, with the real thing scheduled to come out some time this week, already people are in love with Deadpool. And for the record, as amazing as the teaser trailer is, wait until the full thing comes out! I think people are gonna have their brains melted in ecstatic joy!
There’s been a substantial amount of talk revolving around Remedy Entertainment’s upcoming Quantum Break. Mainly focusing on how there’s been no real footage, minus a few seconds, but people were still looking forward to it. Today however, a full on trailer was released, and it certainly appears to be living up to the hype. With seemingly awesome gameplay, and a great cast of actors like Aidan Gillen, Dominic Monaghan, and Shawn Ashmore playing the characters, Quantum Break looks like it’s on the road to monumental success! Scheduled to come out April 5, 2016, we don’t have to wait too long!
Comic Con is such a magical place. It allows like-minded individuals to come together and celebrate everything comic/pop culture related. Another fine individual who I got to interview this year at San Diego Comic Con, was none other than Dark Horse’s Alex De Campi! Writer of titles like No Mercy and Archie vs. Predator, it was a joy, talking to her about the comics she’s written. Let me just say, Archie vs. Predator is one of the most mind-blowingly awesome, spectacularly gory, insane, and genuinely passionate comic books I’ve read in a while. Go to your local comic shop and pick it up! It’s only 4 issues! Anyway, check out my interview over at Bleeding Cool !
I’m occasionally skeptical about mashup fan videos. Usually they’re a hit or miss and it requires that special something to make them work. Lo and behold, introducing Road Wars- The Imperator Strikes Back! I can’t remember the last time I saw two, extremely, different movies mesh so well into a melting pot of greatness! Truly, I would like to see this get made into a feature length film! Hopefully director George Miller gets on that!
