I’m Alive and Still Posting!

So I haven’t really posted much for the past two weeks and that’s all for one very big reason: the election. I’m physically and personally fine. I was just really anxious before the election, and now I’m pretty depressed after the election. So, y’know, just didn’t feel like posting.

But I’m coming out of that fog and am not going to give up all the fun stuff I do in my life just because my country and likely the world are doomed. I’ve got some comic reviews coming tomorrow, and hopefully my review of The Penguin next week. I even hope to review Agatha All Along! And heck, the second season of Arcane kicks off tomorrow, and I plan on going out and buying myself the LEGO X-Mansion. So it should be a pretty fun weekend at least.

As for today, here’s the latest Tell It Animated! This one is about horror clowns.

I don’t have any problem with clowns. I’m not afraid of them and think they have an important role in a circus. But perhaps they are very fun to draw.

Anyway, enjoy the video! I’m gonna go buy LEGOs and watch Arcane.

How About Another Look at Star Wars: Skeleton Crew?

What a couple of weeks. Election anxiety and life anxiety are eating me alive, or at least they’re eating at the parts of me that can focus on blogging. So I haven’t posted much. But it’s Monday, I’ve got to get to work, I’m cold, and I’m finally posting this Star Wars: Skeleton Crew trailer from late last week. This show definitely looks fun, as far as I’m concerned.

This looks fun. A 1980’s style kids adventure flick set in the Star Wars universe? That sounds neat! Star Wars is definitely transitioning into something similar to the superhero genre, where they explore other genres within the existing framework. Sounds fine to me! We’re always going to get new Star Wars stuff, so they might as well be experimental and interesting, and, of course, good.

Star Wars: Skeleton Crew is coming to Disney+ starting on Dec. 3.

Season 2 of Squid Game Might be Good!

Like everybody else, I loved the first season of Squid Game! I cried! I got annoyed at the ending! I didn’t think there needed to be more! But a second season is coming whether we like it or not, and with this first trailer, it actually looks really good.

I’m in. Seong Gi-hun has ditched the bright red hair and looks like a man on a mission. And I really like how he’s portrayed in this trailer, as someone attempting to step up and just lead the others from the very beginning. Could be pretty awesome. And the show is coming sooner than anticipated, with more Squid Game before the end of the year!

Jeez, the first season came out three years ago!

Squid Game returns to Netflix on Dec. 26.

Did You See This Sweet Marvel Disney+ Trailer?

To coincide with the Agatha All Along finale, Marvel put out this sizzle reel of upcoming Disney+ releases. This teaser trailer delivers our first official looks at Daredevil: Born Again, Ironheart, Eyes of Wakanda, Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man and, especially, Wonder Man! Everything looks so good!

I remain a staunch fan of Marvel Studios content. Agatha All Along was very good and I really enjoyed the finale. And I can’t wait for these shows! I know people aren’t too excited for Ironheart, but I think it looks good! I prefer my Iron People to be nuts and bolts, not nanomachines. And Wonder Man could be a real sleeper hit. Daredevil: Born Again will hopefully live up to all the hype. And the various cartoons should be a hoot!

Granted, this means 2025 is going to be full of Marvel content, with three movies and now half a dozen shows. But I think Marvel just needs to burn off all these completed projects before they slow their releases. And I’m all for it!

6 Thoughts on Venom: The Last Dance (Review)

Man, I really hated Venom: The Last Dance. Everything about this movie bugged the heck out of me. And I’m not some hater. I actually mostly enjoyed the first two films, and even gave them positive reviews on this same blog. So I went into Venom 3 with relatively OK expectations. Those very same expectations were very quickly dashed.

Movie Rating: 2/10 – Very Bad

Something went wrong with this movie. Was it edited to within an inch of its life? Did nobody care? Did SONY throw in the towel immediately after Morbius and Madame Webb and just not bother with Venom 3, despite the box office success of the earlier films? Why was the editing so sloppy? Why was the script so terrible? Did anyone actually care about making this franchise work? Ugh.

Anyway, join me after the jump for my thoughts and full review of Venom: The Last Dance. Expect FULL SPOILERS for the whole film because I’m just going to ramble on about it however I feel like.
