Surprise! There’s a New Batman vs. Superman Trailer!

Like the sudden arrival of a bird or a plane, here comes a full-fledged new trailer for Batman v. Superman: Dawn of Justice. It opens with a pretty spectacular showcase of what our new Batman is going to be like!

This one doesn’t seem to give away any of the story, but hot damn, there’s a lot of action and excitement! Will it live up to the action and excitement of Watchmen? Or give in to the overly CGI’d action of Man of Steel? I have no idea, but we’re now only a month or so away from this movie coming out!

Let’s Get Honest About Scott Pilgrim vs. The World

Honestly, this is one of the greatest, coolest movies of all time!

And yeah, the Screen Junkies are always on point with their criticism. But man, this movie was so good, you guys! I’m still shocked it did so poorly at the box office. What were peoples’ problems? Scott Pilgrim vs. The World was exciting, musical and fun. And I liked the movie better than the comics! There, I said it.

Ant-Man’s First Interaction with the MCU…in a Coke Commercial

I didn’t watch the Super Bowl, I didn’t see any of the commercials in real time. But it doesn’t matter, because this Coca Cola/Marvel commercial would have won hands down.

Ant-Man’s first interaction with the rest of the Marvel Cinematic Universe is in a Coke commercial. This is not a criticism. We live in a world where Ant-Man and the Hulk can appear in full live action, with amazing special effects, in a TV commercial. They are part of the mainstream. This is normal, and it’s awesome.

Ant-Man and the freakin’ Hulk!

The New Ghostbusters are Getting LEGOs Too!

No sooner do I finally get my hands on the Ghostbusters LEGOs then a new Ecto-1 set is announced for the new Ghostbusters movie. Man, what’s single, childless adult man with disposable income supposed to do? This is, honestly, almost the exact same set.

And I still want it! Look at the detail, look at the characters, look at the new Ecto-1! It’s gorgeous!

You’ll also notice that they added Chris Hemsworth’s character to the set, whereas Annie Potts wasn’t in the original Ghostbusters’ set. Hmmm. Still, the whole thing looks great! And you can see some more pics and some close-ups here.
