6 Characters I’m Willing to Let Die in Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3
The highly anticipated Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 is coming out this week and I am very excited! It’s gonna be a blast, and I even took the day off from work so that I can go to the early Thursday afternoon showing in my local theater! But the awesomeness comes with some bittersweetness, as this will be our last adventure with these Guardians. James Gunn is moving on to other pastures and has said he’s done. So even if Marvel continues the franchise, it’s going to be entirely different, probably.
And everybody is pretty sure that a lot of Guardians are going to die
Now, I don’t want anybody to die. I don’t require character deaths to give a movie stakes or real emotion. But death is probably inevitable in this movie for someone. So who could I handle dying? If somebody has to die, will I be OK if certain characters bite the dust over others? I’m going to have to be! This might be a morbid list, but fate has brought us to this point, and some of these characters are going to have to face the music.
Join me after the jump for the six characters I’m willing to have die in Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3.
Read the rest of this entryDisney: The Last Wish
Disney Animation has revealed their first look at their next movie, Wish, which I think is about the magic of Disney making a wish upon a star. Just like how Puss in Boots made a wish upon a star?! I kid. But so far, this teaser looks pretty generic. Heroin, villain, animal sidekick.
They even included the little star dude from the Mario movie!
Still kidding. Anyway, I’m a big fan of Disney animation in recent years. Encanto was great! I don’t remember what they did after Encanto…oh right, Strange World! Yeah, Strange World was fine. So we’re just gonna have to hope — rightfully so — that Wish will also be fine. That’s my hope, at least. Or perhaps it’s my…wish?
Anyway, Wish comes to theaters on Nov. 22.

Hench-Sized Comic Book Reviews – 4/29/23
I’m back. I’m still reading comics and still writing reviews for them. Sometimes we get a week like last week, where all my favorites come out. And sometimes we get a week like this one, where some of my side comics are piled up. We’ve got a brand new relaunch for Green Arrow, which I decided to check out, along with more Captain American and Iron Man. I even went back to Tim Drake: Robin to check in and see how things are going.
Comic Book of the Week goes to Wasp #4 for an excellent wrap up to a wonderful little series. This comic has it all, and should be a big hit with Wasp fans. Characters are treated well, the ending ties everything together nicely and it’s all quite pleasant.
Meanwhile, I did not buy Star Wars Jedi: Survivor this weekend because I’m saving my money for Legend of Zelda in a couple of weeks. So I’m missing out on that game. But I did get the new DLC for Horizon: Forbidden West, so at least that’s something. I beat Gotham Knights and put it down, content that I had experienced everything I needed to experience with that game. I fully understand why it crashed and burned, which is a darn shame.
Comic Reviews: Captain America: Symbol of Truth #12, Green Arrow #1, Invincible Iron Man #5, Strange Academy: Finals #6, Tim Drake: Robin #8 and Wasp #4.
Read the rest of this entryNo Silverbolt in Transformers: Rise of the Beasts
I kid. Silverbolt is my favorite Maximal, but there’s no sign of him in the new Transformers: Rise of the Beasts trailer. That’s fine. I’ll make due! There’s a new trailer, and it all looks big and explosive. The beasts seem to be secondary to the whole thing, but perhaps they’ll find a way to make them cool.
Why is this movie set in the mid-90s? Are they trying to stick to some weird continuity still? Like, the Bumblebee movie and then this one take place before the previous movies from the 2000s? Why stick to that continuity? Why stick to any continuity at this point? Just churn these things out! Anyway, this thing should be some degree of fun.
Transformers: Rise of the Beasts will come out on June 9, which isn’t too far away.
