Super Trailer Thursday!
For some reason, a bunch of interesting trailers have been coming out this week. And I love trailers. And they’re easy to share when I’m otherwise busy. So how about we enjoy a couple of trailers for shows and movies I have a vague interest in?
Like the live action trailer for Lilo & Stitch!
I enjoy the animated Lilo & Stitch as much as the next person. And I don’t care for the Disney live action movies as much as the next person. Heck, the live action Snow White comes out, like, next week. Does anybody care beyond the haters? Still, who doesn’t enjoy Stitch shenanigans?
Lilo & Stitch live action comes to theaters on May 23.
Next up is an animated show on Netflix that I just learned about: Devil May Cry! I never played the games, but I’ve enjoyed the animated Castlevania shows, so maybe this will also be good?
It looks pretty good. I’m all in favor of turning classic video games into cool new anime shows. I even did a List of Six suggesting some other shows! And maybe this will be a faithful adaptation and I’ll actually find out what Devil May Cry is about. Won’t that be something?
Devil May Cry, the series, comes to Netflix on April 3.
Lastly, there’s going to be a new season of Poker Face, the mystery show starring Natasha Lyonne and created by Rian Johnson.
For some reason, I didn’t care for the first season of Poker Face. It did nothing for me! Even though I enjoy Lyonne’s work and am a huge fan of Knives Out and Glass Onion. Just something about Poker Face didn’t click for me. So I don’t even know if I’ll watch this. But some of you might, so I thought I’d share.
Poker Face season 2 comes to Peacock on May 8.

Another Look at The Last of Us Season 2
The second season of The Last of Us is only one month away! April is gonna be a great month for television, between TLOU and Andor. I can’t wait! But I have to wait. And while waiting, I can watch this new trailer we got recently, and share it with all of you.
Looks good to me! I loved The Last of Us 2 the game, and I can’t wait for that drama to make its way into the show. I have full faith that the showrunners will do right by all that good character stuff, and we get hints of it in this trailer. So great trailer, I say!
The second season of The Last of Us comes to MAX on April 13.

Let Us Start the Week with a 10-Minute Trailer for Death Stranding 2
I keep forgetting that Death Stranding 2: On the Beach is coming out this year. There are so many new games that should be pretty awesome this year, and I have so little money. But Death Stranding 2 should be a hoot and a half!
Behold 10 minutes of pure nonsense!
I don’t remember anything about the story of Sam Porter, the baby and whatever else was going on in the first game. I just know that I loved the gameplay! I loved the walking and making deliveries. I loved finding paths. I loved gathering resources to build roads so that I could make my deliveries easier. And based on that trailer, I definitely see walking, roads and vehicles! So I am fully on board for this new game and can’t wait to play!
Death Stranding 2 is coming to the Playstation on June 26.

Remember Live Action Powerpuff Girls Reboot? Now You Do!
Once upon a time, The CW wanted to make a live action Powerpuff Girls. They casted a bunch of actual people, filmed some episodes or scenes, and then shelved everything, never to ever been seen. Until now!
Behold madness.
So as expected, YouTube took down the video. But you can watch it on Reddit.
I think it looks…terrible. Insane. Maybe good? This could have been the craziest thing on television. It looks like a bad College Humor sketch, but in a good way. I kind of love it. Anyway, enjoy it while it exists to watch.

More Tony Hawk Nostalgia in These Trying Times
We got the announcement trailer yesterday that they’re revamping Tony Hawk: Pro Skater 3 & 4, like they did with 1 & 2 a few years ago. I’m excited. I was a fiend on all those Tony Hawk games back on the original Playstation, and playing the 1 & 2 revamp a few years ago was liking stepping through a time portal. I actively hurt my thumb using the D-pad so much, just to get back into that old school mindset.
So I’m fully on board with a revamped 3 & 4, even though my memory of them isn’t as strong.
I remember the airport, but I can’t say I remember any other levels or details about Tony Hawk: Pro Skater 3 or 4. Was 4 the one that became more GTA-esque? Where you could walk around the city? I eventually fell off the games, but don’t remember when.
Still, I’ll very much enjoy playing these again when Tony Hawk: Pro Skater 3 & 4 comes out on July 11. This is a great year for video games!
