The Avengers Super Bowl Trailer!
I’m not a sports guy, hence no mention of the Super Bowl on my blog. But I have been eagerly awaiting the new, extended The Avengers trailer set to debut! Everybody says the commercials are the best part of the Super Bowl, and with this commercial, I couldn’t agree more. It’s fantastic!
That was even better than the original trailer! It sets up the story nicely, gives us plenty of good shots of all the characters, and show a lot of the Hulk kicking ass! And how cool was that group shot where the camera pans around them? This commercial definitely has me salivating for the movie to come out on May 3. Let’s get this hype train going, people! ChooChoo!
Simpsons Vocal Cover
If the creators of the Simpsons like getting crazy with their opening credits, they could do worse than turning an episode over to this guy, Nick McKaig. This is apparently his shtick when it comes to Youtube, but this Simpsons video he posted a few weeks ago is just delightful. It’s no ‘Do the Bartman’, but take a listen!
Review: Punisher #8
Finally picking back up with the Punisher and the Bride facing off at the fireplace, the latest issue of The Punisher moves the plot forward in several ways. But it does so without fixing any of the frequent problems I’ve had with this series. Perhaps, like Teen Titans, I should just accept certain problems as part of the story and move on. Because if you overlook those issues, there really is a decent Punisher story here. And the twist ending is very exciting.
Punisher #8
We might finally get to see the Punisher doing some punishing next issue!
Comic rating: 4/5: Good.
The Punisher himself remains a quiet phantom, there’s no changing that. But at least we get appearances from all the other major players, we even learn a bit more about a lot of them. Not that this ‘bit more’ really adds anything, especially to the villains. As far as I’m concerned, The Exchange has fallen flat on their faces as bad guys. Adding a bit of tension between them means zilch at this point. But it’s better than nothing, I suppose. I enjoy plot progression at least.
But when is he going to lose that stupid eye patch? Did Punisher lose his eye or what?
Synopsis and spoilers after the jump!
Death and Return of Superman 4 Hire
Marking the 20th anniversary (almost) of the Death of Superman, “Chronicle” screenwriter Max Landis gives us this glowing tribute, featuring the talents of Elijah Wood and Mandy Moore. Enjoy! It’s perhaps the most accurate rendition I’ve ever seen.
The Day the Internet Broke in Half
All because of a T-shirt.
Or more precisely, the joke on that T-shirt.
I found this randomly surfing the web today, then followed the links back to a T-shirt you can buy from Threadless. This is such a simple idea, but I laughed out loud for a good solid minute. I’m still giggling now as I type this up. This is, by far, what the Internet was made for. This joke is the very definition of Internet humor. Behold!
