Centaurworld Looks to Blow Some Minds
I’m always on the lookout for new cartoons to enjoy. BoJack Horseman, Steven Universe, Adventure Time and She-Ra and the Princess of Power are over. I’ve got to move on. And I’m moving directly into Centaurworld, possibly the weirdest, wildest new show we’re going to get this year.
That looks spectacular. It looks insane and weird and creative and hopefully perfect. The creator said she based the show off her own experiences in college, coming in as someone focused on her studies who randomly joined a musical theater club and had her life changed forever. That sounds neat! And it definitely looks reflected in that trailer. I can’t wait to see what this show is all about.
Centaurworld arrives on Netflix on July 30.

Space Jam Looks Bad; Free Guy Looks OK
Couple of movie trailers came out in the past day, so I’m here to share! Neither one is particularly exciting. But they’re big movies this summer and I’ll definitely be watching them in theaters. It’s what I do!
First up is Space Jam: A New Legacy. I have slightly high hopes for this film, because I love the original Space Jam. It was a big movie for me as a kid.
But that trailer looks terrible. First off, it looks like a mess. It looks like a vomit of shiny CGI in every direction. And the dialogue is as cringe as it gets. This is just a trailer and I winced through most of it. It’s crazy!
Space Jam: A New Legacy comes out on July 16.
Then there’s Free Guy, a movie with Ryan Reynolds that should be more fun.
This trailer was not as good as its first trailer. This one is focused more on just the wild visuals of the film, which thankfully are not as wild as those in Space Jam. But we’ll see. I have a little bit more faith in Free Guy and I hope it is justly rewarded.
Free Guy comes out on Aug. 13.

Everybody Should Watch The Owl House
I just wanted to pass this trailer along as a friendly reminder that everybody should watch and enjoy The Owl House on Disney+. This is a cartoon I discovered late last year after deciding on a whim to give it a try. And it’s great! It’s funny, it’s creative, it’s badass when it wants to be; a solid, enjoyable cartoon adventure show.
The first season is fully available to watch, and the second season will kick off this Saturday, June 12. If you’re looking for a new cartoon to fill the void now that the likes of Adventure Time and She-Ra and the Princesses of Power are over, The Owl House is a solid choice!
Trust me, I know these things.

You So Silly, America
Well this looks neat. A new Netflix animated comedy movie about the “true” story of America’s birth. It’s America: The Motion Picture and it looks both silly and great.
Made by the guy behind Archer, with Phil Lord and Chris Miller on as producers, this looks like a hoot and a half! We’ve got Channing Tatum as George Washington, Olivia Munn as Thomas Edison, and this looks to be a crazy romp of sarcastic patriotism. I hope we can still laugh about such a thing.
America: The Motion Picture arrives on Netflix on June 30.

How About Some Rick and Morty Trailer?
Another Monday is here and we’ve got another trailer for the upcoming season of Rick and Morty. I mean, why not? We all love Rick and Morty. It comes out in a month. And it looks pretty fun!
I like Rick and Morty as much as the next person and the glimpses at the new season look great. What else is there to know? What else is there to talk about? They announced the other day that The Vindicators are going to get a spin-off show. That’s neat…except they’re all dead. So…huh?
Look, I gotta head out of town for work this morning and just wanted an easy share. I’ve got something a lot more fun — and tasty! — to post tomorrow! Just you wait!
Rick and Morty returns on June 20!
