I Told You I Was on a Dragonball Z Kick

Thankfully, the Internet is never short on awesome DBZ stuff! The above short video was made by Jordan Tseng and is all manner of awesome. I’ve said it before and I’ve said it again, if I had that kind of stop motion animation ability, I would…hopefully have an awesome job these days. Or at the very least, I could make some original content. That would be gnarly and cool!

6 Things I Would Want in a Justice League TV Show

Rumors and news tidbits have been swirling for a few weeks now that Warner Bros’ next live action superhero show is going to be a team effort. We’ve already heard that Firestorm, Atom and Captain Cold have been tapped to appear (along with Sara Lance, for some reason), and casting notices have teased a few more characters.

Something is definitely in the works. Could it be a live action Justice League TV show?

It’s been done

Considering how much I love Arrow and The Flash, I can’t wait to see what else this DC brain trust can produce! I’m excited for Supergirl and Vixen, and the idea of putting together a ramshackle Justice League TV show sounds pretty amazing. That Flash/Arrow team-up last year was great television. If DC and The CW can turn that energy into a whole TV show, they’ll have another hit on their hands.

They’ll also have a hit if they follow my advice after the jump!

The New Daredevil Trailer is Chillingly Good!

Somebody get me Netflix on the phone, I need to buy all the subscriptions! The second trailer for the upcoming Daredevil TV show has hit the web, and it is mind-blowingly cool!

Oh man, that was exciting! The characters, the physicality, the Kingpin, the MCU references, the blood, the music, the darkness, the dialogue; it all looks great! I am so pumped for this show. And I am so pumped for it to be amazing. I hope Daredevil really takes off for Marvel and Netflix. I hope people flocked to the show.

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again: this is a great time to be alive!

Our First Look at the New Supergirl TV Show!

Rather than let photographic snoopers spoil the secret, DC Comics and CBS have released a few official images of the new Supergirl costume! It looks pretty great! I guess this show is going to be real, and they’re not going to pull any Smallville garbage by saving the super-suit until the final minute of programming. I like that TV shows are embracing the costumes. Filming for the pilot is already underway. The actress is Melissa Benoist.

I like that they gave her leggings and long boots to go along with her skirt. No need for any unnecessary exposed skin. This is definitely a solid costume. It was designed by Colleen Atwood, who also designed the costumes for Arrow and The Flash, and it would definitely fit into those other shows.

I even like the new S-shield, even if it’s got more blue than normal.

If Supergirl is half as good as Arrow and The Flash, we’ll definitely have the makings of another great superhero show! Consider me finally excited for this show. What do you henchies think?

Someone made a Dragon Ball Z fan film, and you must watch it.

Close on the heels of the recent gritty Power Rangers fan film comes Dragon Ball Z: Light of Hope. This fan film was created by “Robot Underdog,” and it’s everything that fans didn’t get from Hollywood’s adaptation of the series a few years ago.

As best as I can abbreviate the series for those of you who are unfamiliar with it, Dragon Ball Z is about a group of martial arts experts who have unlocked the vast powers within themselves to battle seemingly unstoppable foes.

The above fan film takes place in an alternate timeline, where a pair of powerful androids have all but wiped out the human race. The younger character, Trunks, will eventually travel back in time to aid the series’s main characters in the present day.
