I’ve Seen Better Batman vs. Superman Battles
It seems that Batman fighting Superman is all the rage now, and the Internet isn’t about to deal with that lying down.
Not quite an epic rap battle of history, but I’ll take it! Quality animation, stylish rhymes, hip beats…and the like. I dunno. I’m hardly a good judge of a rap battle. But major kudos to Top Trending for making this happen!

Only Leigh Knows the Dark Truth About Marvel Movies
Only Leigh remains the best. And only she seems to understand!
I don’t know why everybody’s getting burnt out about superhero movies. They’re all still awesome films and very entertaining. There are always going to be more movies, why not let them get made by people who clearly know what they’re doing and make good movies?

A Cinematic Robin has Been Confirmed!
Just not the one we’re hoping for.
Michael Cera has been cast as LEGO Robin in the upcoming LEGO Batman spin-off film. I’m fine with Michael Cera, and considering the tone they’re probably going for with a LEGO Batman movie, he’s probably the perfect bit of casting. I just hope they apply some legitimate cleverness to his character and dialogue instead of doing some wimpy Michael Cera riff.
He played Scott Pilgrim, after all…
The LEGO Batman movie will come out in February 2017. I loved The LEGO Movie as much as the next guy (perhaps even more so), but I’m not at all optimistic about the plethora of spin-offs and other attempts to cash in on the success. And does anybody else find it weird that the two guys behind The LEGO Movie, Phil Lord and Christopher Miller, are being announced for EVERY movie coming out in the near future? It’s insane!
Still, at least we’ll get one Robin in an upcoming movie…

The Five Stages of Watching a Pixar Movie
Thank you, Only Leigh!
I saw Inside Out the other weekend and it was very good. Not one of Pixar’s best, but still an awesome flick. Unique premise, fun characters, great ending, quality bits of humor and emotion; solid Pixar all around. Of course, considering it came in at #2 behind Jurassic World (which I also saw), probably means that we’re going to get three more highly profitable Cars sequels before we get another really good Pixar movie.
Sigh.

We’re Getting More Rick and Morty! And Soon!
The second season of the amazing, hilarious cartoon Rick and Morty is coming to televisions on July 26! Hip, hip, hooray! Wubba Lubba Dub Dub!
Looks like plenty of awesome wackiness, but that trailer doesn’t even touch the depths of how crazy this show can get it. If you haven’t seen the first season, now is the time to get caught up! It’s on Adult Swim! Rick and Morty forever!
