Overwatch is Still Making Cartoons, Because Fun
Overwatch has been out for awhile now, and I have yet to take the plunge and dive in. I’m sure it’s a super fun game and a lot of people are loving it, but I make weird decisions with money. Anyway, Blizzard has decided to keep making Overwatch cartoons, because they’re just so damn good at it! Here’s one about Bastion the nature-loving robot!
Blizzard is just so damn good at these! Where’s the animated series? Or the movie? Though I’m sure they make more than enough money with all the video games…

Right in the Heartstrings
Want to see 40 seconds that will jab you right in the feels? How about this awesome Firefly animated teaser!
Oh man, that’s a gut punch. That’s a…that’s a whallop. Professional animator Stephen Byrne put this together, and if any of us wins the lottery, we need to hire him to make this a reality. Simple as that. Whoo boy.

6 Things I Want to See in the New Ghostbusters Franchise
I was a fan of the new Ghostbusters remake. A friend of mine was such a big fan that she’s seen it three times already! I don’t know the final numbers, but I would say it’s a relatively solid success and not the utter flop that the haters hoped for. I hope this means we’re looking at a new, revived Ghostbusters franchise.
Bustin’ makes me feel good
So what comes next? A sequel, hopefully. Perhaps even a trilogy. The action figures are selling well, and I might pick up one or two myself. I’ve definitely got my eye on that new LEGO Ecto-1. And one hopes that Halloween will be huge this year for little girl Ghostbusters! Elsa and Frozen had their day!
I am totally on board with making this a big, awesome adventure. And there are a few things I’d like to see from the franchise going forward.
LEGO Batman Movie Doesn’t Look Too Bad After All
Look, as a Robin fan, I’ve got to make my peace with the short shorts and the pixie boots. There’s just no other way around it. I hate them with a passion, and I hate that society as a whole has so maligned Robin because of them. So yeah, it bugs me that they’re the first go-to joke in the full trailer for The LEGO Batman Movie.
But other than that, I don’t think Robin’s portrayal is all that bad! And Michael Cera does a pretty great voice! I’ve just got to keep faith in the franchise. The LEGO Movie is one of the greatest movies I’ve ever seen, with a completely unexpected depth. If this movie can pull off that same trick with Batman and Robin, then wholly heck! That would be amazing.
Plus, it doesn’t look like we’re going to get Robin in the DC Cinematic Universe, so I suppose I should take what I can get.

New Justice League Cartoon Looks Pretty Neat
There’s going to be a new Justice League cartoon, and I’m always on board for new and exciting cartoons. I’m not a kid anymore, sure, but so what? I like cartoons. You wanna fight about it?
Anyway, it looks funny, and the animation is really cool.
No sign of Robin, though, which is what we’re all concerned about.
