Season 2 of Harley Quinn Looks Dope!
The second season of the Harley Quinn cartoon starts on April 3 and I’m excited! Turns out, WB and DC ordered a full 26 episodes and then decided to split them into 13-episode seasons. That works fine for me!
Because check out this sweet as heck trailer!
I love this show! It’s hilarious, it’s raunchy, it’s emotional, it’s well-written and well-developed. It’s perfect all the way around. And the new season is going to feature Catwoman, Batgirl and the ever-evolving relationship between Harley and Poison Ivy!
This show is great and I highly recommend it to all of you! It comes out weekly, though, so you can’t binge it in the virus apocalypse.

6 Classic Video Games That Need Modern, R-Rated Cartoons
In these virus-ridden times, the only thing we all have to look forward to is crashing on our various couches and binging Netflix. I recently finished the latest season of the Castlevania cartoon, and it was awesome! Great character work, fun and clever writing, glorious animation and an eye-popping amount of Hard-R-Rated gore and more. They went all out with this cartoon.
Go ahead and binge all three seasons while you’re in quarantine!
So let’s kill some time in our new virus reality by daydreaming about other modern, Hard-R-Rated versions of classic video games. Why not? What do we have to lose? Sure, some of these could be turned into goofy, kid-friendly cartoons. But I want more total badasses kicking butt and being hardcore! That’s the sort of world we deserve. That’s the kind of world we should live in!
Join me after the jump for six classic video games that I think should get the modern Castlevania cartoon treatment! Life will just be more fun that way.
It’s the Leprechaun!
The fine chap at Tell It Animated has decided to celebrate St. Patrick’s Day with a fun Leprechaun video! The poor fella is probably running out of horror movie villains to animate, but he’s still a master at the whole thing!
Meanwhile, I’m still not sick during this whole Coronavirus thing. So I’ll keep right along posting whatever pop culture stuff interests me. This is probably not the place to come for any news or tips about Coronavirus.
This remains the place for some listicles, videos and comic reviews!

So, Uh, Some Movies Are Still Coming Out
The world is coming to an end, but I’m still here and posting on this ole blog. Might as well. Today I’m sharing the new trailer for the next Pixar film Soul! It looks pretty good!
I saw Onward the other day and it was just fine. It had a really strong climax, but the movie itself was just OK. Worth a watch, but not something that will stick around. So I’m excited for Soul. It’s directed by Pete Docter, the genius behind Inside Out and Up, along with a bunch of other great Pixar films. So this could be another one of those really smart, really creative, really emotional Pixar movies.
Meanwhile, the rest of the world is shutting down! Mulan and a bunch of other upcoming movies have been delayed until who knows when. That’s pretty disappointing.
I’ll let you all know if and when I have to self-isolate!
Soul comes out on June 19…for now.

How About a Blood-Soaked Mortal Kombat Cartoon?
Mortal Kombat Legends: Scorpion’s Revenge comes out next month and they’ve decided to entice us with a blood-soaked new trailer! Let the cartoon blood flow!
This movie looks interesting…to an extent. It’s weird how the first half of the trailer is all about a cool Scorpion origin story…and then the second half switches over to Liu Kang and company. It’s like the movie wants us to think it’s all Scorpion all the time…but it’s probably just another retelling of the same old Liu Kang story again.
Which is doubly weird, because aren’t we supposed to get a new live action Mortal Kombat movie soon? And won’t that movie probably also focus on Liu Kang’s story in the first tournament? Why do MK producers keep going back to that story? Surely we’re all bored of it by now?
If you had to choose between Scorpion and Liu Kang, I think 99% of us would choose Scorpion.
Or better yet, Sub-Zero! Like this write-up I did last year on my idea for a Mortal Kombat movie! It’s time we leave Liu Kang, Sonya Blade and that third guy in the dust! Focus on the actually interesting characters! You’re already most of the way there with Scorpion’s Revenge!
