6 Most Excellent Ankylosaurus Characters
Open the door, get on the floor! Everybody walk the dinosaur! Today we’re going to talk about one of the best topics in the world: dinosaurs! To make it even better, we’re going to talk about the best dinosaur: the Ankylosaurus! It’s been my favorite dinosaur since I was a kid and it deserves the spotlight!
Some people out there would focus on the Tyrannosaurus Rex or the Velociraptor. Both are cool, but they get too much attention. And don’t even get me started on the Triceratops or the Stegosaurus. The Ankylosaurus is cooler than them all! Built like a tank, complete with armored plating on the back, and a massive tail bludgeon, the Ankylosaurus is just plain cool! So I went out and tracked down six different Ankylosaurus-based characters in pop culture!
Join me after the jump for six times the Ankylosaurus was used as inspiration for one cool character or another!
I’m 40% Dolemite!
Eddie Murphy is back! This time he’s making a biopic about comedian Rudy Ray Moore, who invented the Dolemite character. I only know the character by name, like when he was referenced multiple times in Futurama. So this new movie might be very informative!
Looks pretty funny. Dolemite Is My Name comes out sometime this fall, I think. And I might finally be able to put some history to the Futurama joke!

Also, You Should Watch Dora and the Lost City of Gold!
The live action Dora the Explorer movie is surprisingly great! The trailers for Dora and the Lost City of Gold looked pretty cool, so I went to see the film this past weekend and it’s surprisingly fun and charming.
It’s got something for both kids and adults, with a sharply written script. It’s easily risen to one of my favorite movies of the year so far. And I’ve never even watched the original cartoon! I already know all my vocabulary.

Watch She-Ra and the Princesses of Power Season 3!
It’s a pretty slow Monday in stuff I have ready to post on the internet, so I think I’m going to take this moment to remind you all that season 3 of She-Ra and the Princesses of Power is out on Netflix!
It’s a great season and a great show!
Also out is the third season of GLOW, which is another amazing show! Seriously, two of my favorite shows these days came out with their third seasons within a week of each other! I’m thrilled. And the next season of BoJack Horseman should be available soon.
Honestly, TV is great these days! I’m a very happy geek.

Hench-Sized Comic Book Reviews – 8/10/19
Interesting week of comics this week! Both Agents of Atlas and Future Foundation get their first issues this week, so Marvel is kicking off two new team books. But we’ve also got ongoing comics from Batman, Green Lantern and more! House of X shakes things up yet again and nothing will ever be the same!
Comic Book of the Week goes to Lois Lane #2. House of X is good, don’t get me wrong, but Lois Lane is damn good.
Meanwhile, I tried out the first issue of Absolute Carnage, despite not reading any of Donny Cates’ previous Venom and/or Carnage stories. The first issue is really great. It establishes the story well and delivers some quality Spider-Man and Venom entertainment, keeping the story grounded and realistic. Cates writes a really good Spider-Man!
I’ll probably keep reading this main series, but I’m probably only going to review the Scream mini-series, because I remain wholly dedicated to Scream for some reason. She’s my favorite symbiote and I’m happy to see her in action again.
Comic Reviews: Agents of Atlas #1, Batman #76, Black Cat #3, Future Foundation #1, Green Lantern #10, House of X #2 and Lois Lane #2.
