Overwatch is Still Making Cartoons, Because Fun

Overwatch has been out for awhile now, and I have yet to take the plunge and dive in. I’m sure it’s a super fun game and a lot of people are loving it, but I make weird decisions with money. Anyway, Blizzard has decided to keep making Overwatch cartoons, because they’re just so damn good at it! Here’s one about Bastion the nature-loving robot!

Blizzard is just so damn good at these! Where’s the animated series? Or the movie? Though I’m sure they make more than enough money with all the video games…

Right in the Heartstrings

Want to see 40 seconds that will jab you right in the feels? How about this awesome Firefly animated teaser!

Oh man, that’s a gut punch. That’s a…that’s a whallop. Professional animator Stephen Byrne put this together, and if any of us wins the lottery, we need to hire him to make this a reality. Simple as that. Whoo boy.

Hellboy is an All-Time Classic

Hellboy is an all-time classic, but it’s not perfect — which is why we have Cinema Sins.

It’s an ultimate shame that we’ll never get Hellboy 3. Those movies were a real gem and still hold up. This was superhero movies done near perfect. Ron Perlman is a national treasure.

The 6 Spookiest Comic Book Necromancers

Necromancy is pretty spooky stuff. Raising the dead, summoning skeletons, speaking to ghosts; it’s a creepy treasure trove of super-powers that don’t exactly lend themselves to anyone heroic. But I’m actually a big fan! The Necromancer was my first hero choice in Diablo II, and just the other day, I started a brand new Skyrim character with the intent to build her into a Necromancer. And remind me to tell you (and the world) someday about Mandi, the World’s Most Adorable Necromancer.

This takes me back

As I embark upon my new Skyrim quest of raising zombies to fight dragons (because video games are awesome), I’ve decided to look over the comic book universe to see what heroes and villains share in this power. Considering how often superheroes come back from the dead, you’d think it would be more common! But nope, there’s only a handful, and they are a pretty spooky bunch!

Arrival Looks the Appropriate Amount of Cool

Arrival could prove to be the new sci-fi movie of the year. The trailer looks especially thrilling.

Everybody likes Amy Adams and the rest of the cast, and this film looks especially cool. Exploring an alien invasion from the ground floor with a focus on linguistics sounds neat! Consider this one marked on my calendar for November.
