Here We Go: Avengers: Doomsday Trailer!
I was at work in a courtroom yesterday morning, followed by watching the 3-hour The Odyssey movie, so when this Avengers: Doomsday trailer randomly dropped on a Monday morning, I was in no position to post it. So I waited until today. That’s good enough.
I like it, but I’d say I’m not too hyped. I’m at a plateau of hype for most Marvel projects these days. I have enjoyed every single one — with the exception of Secret Invasion — so I fully expect Doomsday to be good. I fully expect to enjoy it. Bring it on. Let’s have a good movie where everybody shows up and teams up and Doctor Doom is awesome. Should be a hoot. Should be a good time. Cameos just don’t wow me at this point in my jaded life. So I’ll just have to wait and see the movie and enjoy it.
Avengers: Doomsday comes to theaters on Dec. 18.

Tell It Animated: Bowser and Punisher
One of my favorite little channels on YouTube is Tell It Animated, where a dude draws character evolutions from over the years/decades. He’s a cool dude with a great gimmick. And I like sharing what he’s made, even if I’m rather late with at least one of these.
First up is Bowser, or King Koopa for those of us who grew up in the 1980s.
And then we’ve got the Punisher, ahead of his upcoming appearance in Spider-Man: Brand New Day.
Good videos, both! Hopefully they brighten somebody’s Monday. I gotta get some work in today and then I’m going to see The Odyssey, so hopefully it’ll be a good day for yours truly.

Hench-Sized Comic Book Reviews – 7/18/26
So it’s gonna be a weird week for comic book reviews from me, dawgs. I had some work and some traveling and this and that, and then, frankly, I wasn’t too impressed with what was on offer. So it’s gonna be a quick week from me.
Comic Book of the Week goes to Absolute Green Arrow #3 for another strong issue, though it was a bit scattershot to my liking.
Meanwhile, I dunno, I keep doing the same stuff. Still playing Crimson Desert, though I’m probably nearing the end. I’m gonna go see The Odyssey in theaters on Monday, though not in IMAX. The closest IMAX theater is nearly an hour away and not worth the hassle of getting to. So pretty chill time to be me.
Comic Reviews: Absolute Green Arrow #3, Avengers: Armageddon #2 and Mighty Morphin Power Rangers #2.
Read the rest of this entryMovie Trailer Wednesday: Mayday and Digger
The Odyssey is coming out this weekend and a lot of new movie trailers have arrived so that they can be attached to The Odyssey. Or maybe they’re just coming out for the fun of it? I don’t know how movie trailer releases work, despite being a big fan of movie trailers for 30+ years. Oh well. These two came out yesterday and I wanted to share.
First up is Mayday, an action comedy starring Ryan Reynolds and Kenneth Branagh coming to AppleTV.
I think it looks great! Looks like a ton of fun. I have no turned on Ryan Reynolds like most people, so I’m all in favor of this. The biggest pull is that the film is directed by John Francis Daley and Jonathan Goldstein. These are the geniuses behind Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves, with some solid writing credits under their belts. These guys make good movies, so I’m definitely keeping an eye on Mayday, and you should too.
Mayday comes to AppleTV on Sept. 4.
Next up is Digger, this super important Tom Cruise movie. I saw the Digger teaser trailer ahead of a movie in theaters a few weeks ago, and the trailer was like 5 full minutes of glazing Tom Cruise’s career. So I guess everything has been building to Digger?
It looks neat. Looks like a smart satire, which I always enjoy. And it’s got John Goodman, so that’s great. I guess it just looks like a big, important, funny movie that will use star power to stay something powerful? I dunno. I just thought it was a trailer worth sharing.
Digger comes to theaters on Oct. 2.

Movie Trailer Monday: Not Alone
It’s Monday. I’m going back to work. Life moves on. How about a new movie trailer? It’s Not Alone by Illumination! Looks pretty cute.
I think it looks pretty neat. The movie could go in very many directions. Since it’s Illumination, it will probably going in the direction where those little alien are the entire stars of the film. But the soundtrack to the trailer, and the little love story they’ve got going on, could be fun, right? Could be something different? I’ll just keep hoping.
Not Alone comes to theaters…next April. That’s forever in the future!
