What is This? A Trailer for Ants?!
Oh…yes. That’s exactly what it is.
Damn you, Marvel! I want to love you because you’re clever, but I want to hate you for delaying the first Ant-Man trailer for another four days! There is a part of me that is more excited for the Ant-Man movie than I am for Age of Ultron or The Force Unleashed, and I am not ashamed of that.
The trailer for humans is going to air with the premiere of Agent Carter on Tuesday. Hopefully HYDRA comes through for us again and leaks the full thing online before then, because I am chomping at the bit for this baby!

New Year, Old Stuff
Hey gang! I’ve been lazing about for the past week, what with the holidays and all. There’s also the fact that it’s been kind of a quiet week, geek news wise. So how about we start the new year with something classic?
I can always count on the good people at Cinema Sins to provide quality blog fodder. They’re the meat and potatoes of this business!

6 Pop Culture Resolutions for 2015
Welp, 2015 is here and I’m still fat and broke. Guess my resolutions for 2014 didn’t pan out…again! I did a little bit better with my pop culture resolutions last year, some of which actually came true. So I thought I’d go ahead and make this a new, annual tradition!
Plus this is definitely the year I get in shape and get rich!
There’s a lot in store for us in 2015, one of the biggest pop culture years in a long time. Not only is Avengers 2 hitting the big screen in the spring, but the year’s going to end with the Star Wars relaunch. How cool is that? We’ve got great TV shows, great video games, great comics, and great everything else. But how great can they be? What do I hope to see in 2015? Join me after the jump to find out!
First Semi-Official Look at the Ant-Man Villain!
The first trailer for Marvel’s Ant-Man is due to hit the web any day now (hopefully!), so Marvel is ready to ramp up the marketing on the film. Yes, Avengers: Age of Ultron comes first, but everybody in the world is already going to see that. Marketing will consist of Marvel simply telling everybody when to go to the theaters. Ant-Man is going to need to be sold, and with that we have a new banner image leaked online today.
Not only do we get another great look at the movie Ant-Man costume, but here is the first semi-official look at the villain, Yellow Jacket! Some blurry images leaked online weeks ago, but this picture is clear, bright and awesome!
You can check out a bigger version here.
I think Yellow Jacket looks pretty awesome, and he definitely fits as a high-tech, insectoid villain. But man, he’s going to be a hard sell. Hopefully Ant-Man will focus mostly on Ant-Man himself, and the villain won’t be that big of a deal. Most Marvel movies have lame villains anyway.

Honest Trailers: Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles
I still mostly enjoyed the new Ninja Turtle reboot. I went in with an open mind and liked this new take on my favorite Turtles. The simple thing to remember is that there are so many different versions of the Ninja Turtles out there. One shouldn’t get their panties in a twist just because Michael Bay gets to make his version. Give it another 10 years and we’ll have a new cartoon, new comics and new movies. You’ll see!
