How The Mandalorian Should Have Ended

The How It Should Have Ended gang has gone above and beyond for the first season of The Mandalorian, giving us alternate endings for all 8 episodes! Let’s give it up to these creative so-and-so’s!

Pretty funny stuff. And great animation, as always! They drew a glorious looking Mando.

Now we just have to sit back and wait another couple of weeks for the new season! Woohoo!

6 Surprise Siblings of Popular Characters

Siblings; can’t live with’em, can’t live without’em. Or something like that. I have two younger siblings, and they’re pretty cool. But this isn’t an article about them. You know who else has siblings? Pop culture characters! And you know what’s even more fun? When those siblings randomly show up out of the blue and are sometimes never heard from again!

Like Enola Holmes, the hit new Netflix movie about Sherlock Holmes’ younger sister.

It’s nice that Millie Bobbie Brown is getting work

I watched Enola Holmes this past weekend and rather enjoyed it. But did you know that she is not canon to the actual Sherlock Holmes stories? Enola Homes is a creation of American author Nancy Springer, who wrote a series of young adult novels about the character between 2006 and 2010. So, surprise! Sherlock Holmes has a younger sister! Kind of!

Turns out, this happens every once and a while in pop culture and I’ve tracked down a couple other random, surprise siblings! Join me after the jump and be in awe!

I Don’t Know the First Thing About Lupin III, But This Looks Fun

Anybody know anything about Lupin III? I don’t know if he’s French or Japanese or what, but he had a CGI movie in his home country…last year, I think? Suffice to say, I am doing absolutely no research whatsoever for this blog post. I’m just sharing the new English dub trailer!

Looks like he’s some kind of thief…and has wacky adventures? That seems about right. Lupin III: The First is coming to select theaters on Oct. 18, and then will be available digitally in December. Looks like I’m waiting until December.

Kipo and the Age of Wonderbeasts is Coming to An End!

The final season of Kipo and the Age of Wonderbeasts is coming to Netflix in two weeks! This is a wonderful little show and I’m excited to get a fitting conclusion.

Kipo and the Age of Wonderbeasts is only three seasons long and it’s all wonderful. Highly recommended. It does go in some weird directions here and there, but it’s overall a really nice adventure.

Kipo and the Age of Wonderbeasts season 3 arrives on Oct. 12!

I Am Loving Star Trek: Lower Decks!

I have never been much of a Star Trek fan, but I’ve finally found my series: Lower Decks! The animated, Rick and Morty-esque cartoon, is a real delight! A bunch of episodes have come out so far and they’re all great! And a new trailer was revealed for the rest of the season at recent Star Trek Day.

Love the show. If you’ve got CBS All Access, give it a watch! It’s true to the spirit of Star Trek, while also being well-written and hilarious.

There was also a trailer for the next season for Star Trek: Discovery. I enjoy that show as well, for the most part.

Now that I have Lower Decks, I don’t know if I need Discovery anymore…not that I need either. But hey, Discovery is still going, so hopefully people are enjoying it.

But seriously, watch Lower Decks, it’s my new must-watch cartoon now that BoJack Horseman, Steven Universe and Adventure Time are over, and we don’t know if we’ll get a season 3 of Harley Quinn, and Rick and Morty remains up in the various airs.
