Galactus Cast!
So it looks like Galactus is going to be in the new Fantastic Four movie after all! We already know who’s going to play Silver Surfer, and now we’ve got actor Ralph Ineson as Galactus! I know I’ve seen him in plenty of things, I just can’t really picture anything off the top of my head. He does have a great voice, at least.
This is all fine by me. I know people will say they would have liked Mole Man or someone less all-encompassing for the first villain of the movie, but I’m fine with Galactus an the Silver Surfer. They are some of my all-time favorite comic book characters going back to my childhood, and the world deserves to see them done right on the big screen.
And I have to hope that Marvel knows they need to do Galactus right this time around. Surely they know what must be done…right?!
Anyway, word is that John Malkovitch and Paul Walter Hauser have also been cast in the movie, their roles not yet revealed. Neat! Loving the cast of this movie for sure!

Our First Look at the New Movie Superman
James Gunn posted this picture online today to reveal our first official look at the new movie Superman, played by actor David Corenswet. I think it looks great! This image is going to be picked apart by the various vultures on the internet, and I’m one of them, to a degree! Only my picking apart is all praise. Looks great to me.
I’m looking forward to this new movie — which comes out on July 11 next year. I have nothing but complete and total faith in James Gunn and his moviemaking. He’s going to make an incredible film! And he’s going to hopefully spearhead and incredible new DC Cinematic Universe.
The suit looks good to me. It’s a bit on the dark side, but that’s fine. Honestly, I would definitely prefer this look over some bright, skintight spandex. The suit looks good, the colors are good, the symbol is good; he’s apparently wearing the red trunks, which I fully support. The cape attachment looks fine to me. Yeah, I’ve got no real complaints! Bring on the new movie!
And here’s a List of Six I did some time ago for everything I’d like to see in the new movie.

New Deadpool & Wolverine Trailer Does Not Disappoint!
Deadpool & Wolverine is, probably, the most highly anticipated movie of the year. It’s the only Marvel Studios movie this year, and caps off the much beloved and praised Deadpool trilogy. It’s got everything going for it, and, thankfully, looks awesome to boot!
That was great! Still not much revealed in terms of story or what’s going on, but there’s so much beautiful Deadpool & Wolverine action and humor! Loved the melodic “Like a Prayer” soundtrack. Loved the humor. Loved seeing Wolverine in costume with his arms bare. Loved the MCU Easter Eggs. This thing looks awesome!
Deadpool & Wolverine comes to theaters on July 26!

There Have Been Far More Mechagodzilla Than I Ever Knew
It’s Tell It Animated time! And this time around he’s doing Mechagodzilla. Everybody loves a good kaiju. And I had no idea Mechagodzilla made so many appearances out there in this wide pop culture world.
That is one detailed, fancy-looking giant robot. The animator really went to extremes to get this guy done for this video! Kudos all around! And next video is the 50th! I doubt he’ll take my suggestion to do Robin. But who would be worthy for a 50th video? Maybe an update on every video he’s done so far? Or an update on his first video, whoever that was. My legit guess would be…Link! But we’ll see.
Also today is supposed to see the release of a new Deadpool & Wolverine trailer, so check back later! I’ll get that up as soon as I see it posted.

Animated Transfomers Origin Movie Incoming
So, huh. I have been vaguely aware of Transformers One for some time now, but I had no idea it was going to be this: an animated origin story that leans into every possible trope imaginable, while trying to tap into the same magic of TMNT: Mutant Mayhem. See for yourself.
The tropes are unending. Enemies started out as best friends in lowly jobs. They’ve got the comic relief character and the girl character to round out the squad. A-list actors brought in to do voice actor work. Man, this trailer has it all! The humor is maybe funny. The action and animation look fine. The exploration of Transformers lore feels forced. And it doesn’t help that the big screen Transformers franchise is all over the place these days. So I’m just not sure what this movie is trying to accomplish.
But I guess we’ll find out when Transformers One comes to theaters on Sept. 20.
