Walking Dead Trailer Delivers Them Chills and Thrills!
I’ve stuck with The Walking Dead this whole time and still very much enjoy the show. The new season premieres in October, as always, and Comic Con has delivered a big, rip-roaring trailer!
Looks good to me! Bring on the war!

New Inhumans Trailer Still Looks Terrible
Comic Con has brought us a new trailer for the upcoming Inhumans show, and it’s pure garbage. Like, it’s clearly cut and cued like a professional trailer, but the material is just nonsense and terrible.
Somebody definitely wants to make a great trailer, but it just didn’t work out. The special effects are especially terrible. Can you believe Medusa’s hair in that trailer? Holy cow, that looks terrible! How did they let that see the light of day? And the makeup is bad, too. Triton just looks plain weird!
Inhumans might be the first Marvel project that I think looks bad from the get-go. This isn’t going to turn out well.

My Thoughts on the New Doctor!
This is going to be a super spoiler for Doctor Who, so if you don’t want the Doctor’s new actor to be revealed, don’t watch the clip below and don’t read any further. They announced the new actor today to follow Peter Capaldi in this year’s Christmas special. You can watch the announcement video right here!
The 13th Doctor will be played by Jodie Whittaker, making her the first female incarnation of the Doctor in the show’s history. This isn’t too far-fetched. It has been clearly established that when Time Lords regenerate, they can change sex and race and pretty much everything else. Plus, a very vocal fanbase has been clamoring for a minority Doctor.
Personally, I am very pleased with this choice and excited for the new seasons. Whittaker was great in Attack the Block and everything else I’ve seen her in. I’m sure she’ll be great as the Doctor.
I wonder if they’ll give her a male companion!

Squirrel Girl Has Been Cast!
Attention, attention, all ye geeks everywhere! Marvel has cast Squirrel Girl for their extended Cinematic Universe! She’s gonna appear on a New Warriors TV show on Freeform, but let’s not hold that against her!
Squirrel Girl will be played by actor Milana Vayntrub. I have no idea who that is.
Vayntrub has starred in a ton of stuff, according to IMDB. Most recently, she was in This Is Us, which I haven’t seen. But I bet I’ve seen her on College Humor!
So bully on her. Squirrel Girl is awesome and I hope the show can do her justice.
According to The Hollywood Reporter, all the other roles have been cast as well. There’s Derek Theler as Mister Immortal, Jeremy Tardy as Night Thrasher, Callum Worthy as Speedball, Matthew Moy as Microbe and Kate Comer as Debrii. Good on them!
The show will last 10 episodes and is about a bunch of young people coping with young people life and super-powers. Here’s hoping it’s a good show!

The Inhumans TV Show Looks About as Interesting as the Inhumans Comics
I don’t care for the Inhumans comics. And from the looks of this first trailer, I don’t see myself caring about the Inhumans TV show. See for yourself.
Everything looks so…awkwardly wooden. None of the characters really stand out, unless you count Maximus the Mad doing all the shouting. Black Bolt and Medusa look dumb. Lockjaw looks fake. There’s no prestige. There’s just weirdness.
And don’t get me started on not tying into the Inhumans in Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.
