So I Hit a Parked Car Today
That’s my biggest news of the day. And man did it suck! The Nissan came out of nowhere, right in my blindspot thanks to my overly frosted windows. I think there’s something wrong with my windshield because it gets frost on the inside. That’s not supposed to happen, right? But it’s impossible to completely clear up in the morning, because my heat only comes on when I’ve been driving for a few minutes. It won’t get warm if I just idle. So there I am moseying down the small alley behind my house, I can barely see out the driver’s side of my windshield, let alone the passenger side, and I go to make my turn and CRUNCH!!
How embarrassing.
Fortunately, no harm no trouble. Some plastic broke off their rear bumper, some plastic broke off my front bumper.
Oh, and my passenger side quarter panel bent so that the passenger-side door is wedged shut. Wonderful! That’s gonna need to get fixed.
On top of all of that, there’s absolutely nothing worth blogging about! No good comics to review, no good movie clips, no good comic book news. I thought about going to see the new Ghost Rider movie, but I’m not sure I could squeeze it in.
But rather than leave my blog empty, here’s a funny picture I’ve been holding onto. Laugh at it and laugh at my bad luck Someone should.
The Ultimate Avengers Trailer
I know I posted the real The Avengers trailer only a week or so ago, but then some fans at ScreenRant made this amazing extended trailer. They use footage from all the individual movies to build a larger story, then use all the footage that’s been released so far for The Avengers. This is a movie trailer on steroids, people. And it is gleeful.
Thanks to Topless Robot for the find.
Avengers Legos Look Awesome
Toy Fair 2012 is happening right now in New York City. It’s like a big, exciting toy convention showing off all the upcoming action figures and other knick knacks we can buy. I’ve been flipping through a lot of the pictures off the convention floor, but so far the action figures just look boring. The Amazing Spider-Man and The Avengers movies look like they’ll be producing the most basic action figures imaginable. We’re going to get a ton of Spider-Man figures, and then the various Avengers. Boring.
Fortunately, there are going to be some badass Legos.
I love what they've done with the Hulk
It’s like childhood dreams given physical form. Captain America? Hulk? The Avengers? they look so completely badass! Everyone except Iron Man, though. He looks stupid. But check out Black Widow’s hair. And Hawkeye looks sweet too. Plus turning Hulk into a ‘beast’ instead of just a regular mini-fig was brilliant.
Check out some actual Lego models after the jump!
The Avengers Super Bowl Trailer!
I’m not a sports guy, hence no mention of the Super Bowl on my blog. But I have been eagerly awaiting the new, extended The Avengers trailer set to debut! Everybody says the commercials are the best part of the Super Bowl, and with this commercial, I couldn’t agree more. It’s fantastic!
That was even better than the original trailer! It sets up the story nicely, gives us plenty of good shots of all the characters, and show a lot of the Hulk kicking ass! And how cool was that group shot where the camera pans around them? This commercial definitely has me salivating for the movie to come out on May 3. Let’s get this hype train going, people! ChooChoo!
Is Captain America Going to Have to Murder Everyone?
I’ve written extensively about my love of Legos on this blog, but I’ve never really gotten into also loving the people who make stop-motion Lego animation. Well Forrest Fire Films has gone ahead and produced a brilliant Captain America Lego clip where Cap kicks a lot of ass. Definitely worth a view.
If you can stomach the incredible amounts of gore in the video. What the hell, Cap?
