It Seems I Missed Some Awesome Bebop and Rocksteady News!
I’ve already said it a few times on this blog recently, but I have developed a new respect for Bebop and Rocksteady in my growing years. I don’t think I much cared for them in the 80s, when they were bumbling henchmen to the Shredder in the old Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles cartoon. But as I grow older, I find myself liking them and their potential more and more.
Which is why I’m so ashamed that I missed this awesome Bebop and Rocksteady news from earlier this year!
They’ll probably moider me now!
Fortunately, there’s been a new bump in content, so I can safely announce it today without too much Internet scorn.
Is anybody else watching the new Ninja Turtles cartoon on Nickelodeon? It’s actually a very good show. The animation is top notch, the mythology is expertly crafted; it really is a love letter to all things awesome about the Ninja Turtles. I have nothing but good things to say about the cartoon – except that their villains are terrible. All of them. Across the board. For the most part.
Fortunately, that’s about to change!
In the interest of SPOILERS, I’m going to wait until after the jump to reveal the awesome news!
The Incredibles, But Even More Awesomer
The Incredibles done in the style of Christopher Nolan/The Dark Knight. I would say it was a definitely well-put-together bit of Internetery. Kudos to Bobby Burns, the man with the plan to mess with Disney movies.
Jimmy Olsen Can Only Put Up With So Much
This cartoon is probably much older than I realize, but I just saw it today, and it was quite funny. So I thought I’d share it with all you good people. These Tales of Metropolis shorts are the bee’s knees.
Animated Miles Morales!
The world announced today that Donald Glover, from Community, was going to voice Miles Morales in the Ultimate Spider-Man cartoon – which means that Ultimate Spider-Man finally gets to appear in Ultimate Spider-Man! That’s good news and all, but I’m even more excited for animated Miles Morales! He’ll probably never show up on the big screen, but this is cool nonetheless.
Glover is pretty awesome in the role. I kind of want to watch Ultimate Spider-Man now.
And for anybody keeping track, I totally owe you guys a review of the last issue of Miles Morales: The Ultimate Spider-Man. I’ll get to it, I’ll get to it.
Holy Crap! There’s a New Floating Hands X-Men Parody!
How is this possible? How did the Internet bring this about? Enough rhetorical questions! Let’s just enjoy this two-part parody of the Messiah Complex! It makes sense that the first video in 6 years parodies a storyline from 6 years ago.
Part 1
Part 2
Heh, those are still great. And Part 2 includes Multiple Man! How cool is that? I hope this is a sign that the good people at Floating Hands Studios will be making even more! I’ll definitely be posting Part 3 when it comes along – which, based on their current rate of production, should be some time next year! Stay tuned!
