Thank Jeebus, Arrow is Gonna Get a Real Mask
Though there’s still a little makeup around the eyes
I complained about this a long time ago, but man, Stephen Amell looked stupid with the green makeup brushed around his eyes on the TV show Arrow. Plus, in season 2, he’s not longer hiding in the shadows. He has face-to-face conversations with a lot of people who personally know Oliver Queen. The makeup just wasn’t cutting it anymore. And it never looked anything other than stupid. So good call, fine folks at Arrow. It’s nice to know you’re using your heads.
Also, how great has season 2 been, amiright?
The Only Batman vs. Superman Fight We Really Need to Worry About
The Batman/Superman film may be making all the headlines these days, but let’s give it up for those wacky voice actors!
The idea that former Superman voice actor Tim Daly and his son Sam, who also voices Superman, would go around making fun web videos is just the neatest thing ever. That they brought Kevin Conroy into the mix is just plain boss. Thanks to Henchperson Xavier for the tip!
Hench-Sized Comic Book Reviews – 11/16/13
The week after Marvel puts a new Thor movie in theaters, they put a new Thor comic on the shelves. I hope someone in their publishing division got a promotion out of that genius move. The comic even has Malekith in it! Talk about synergy! Marvel should also be grateful that Jason Aaron writes an awesome Thor. Who could have guessed that the Asgardian God would be such a hot commodity these days?
He’s not alone, we’ve got swell comics for Batman, Nightwing, Spider-Man and the X-Men. Though Superman and Wonder woman break the streak with their ho-hum attempt at romance. Oh well. Love isn’t for everybody. But it might be for the teenagers in the original X-Men. Those kids are all about feelings. The hilarious and adorable All-New X-Men #18 wins Comic Book of the Week with ease. Check out their fancy new costumes!
I wish I had a costume that cool
Comic Reviews: All-New X-Men #18, Batman #25, Nightwing #25, Superior Foes of Spider-Man #5, Superior Spider-Man #21, Superman/Wonder Woman #2, Thor: God of Thunder #15.
Will We See a Kingdom Come Batman in the Man of Steel Sequel?
Rumors are swirling left and right about the upcoming Batman/Superman movie, everything from Wonder Woman and Flash having cameo appearances, to the batsuit being based on Jim Lee designs. Normally I wouldn’t write about these kinds of rumors, but now that they involve the possibility of Dick Grayson appearing in the film, I am all over them. I can’t help it. I want Robin to appear in this movie more than I want a low calorie french fry.
Today’s new rumor comes from Warner Bros. producer Daniel Alter who sent out a Tweet about the film this morning that makes me think the Ben Affleck Batman will be based on the comic book series Kingdom Come.
It’s not as religious as you might think
I’m saving the Tweet until after the jump so that you don’t have to be SPOILED if you don’t want to be. There’s also the possibility that this is a total lie and none of it’s true. Such is the problem with rumors. But if that’s the case, who the heck does Daniel Alter think he is that he can make up lies about the new movie?
All thanks to ComicBookMovie.com for finding this Tweet.
Honest Trailers: Man of Steel
If ever there was a movie that needed to be mocked, Man of Steel is it. I dislike that movie more and more as time goes on, and the DVD will be out soon, so I can watch it again! Good job, Screen Junkies, for nailing another one.
