It’s Basically Just Game of Thrones By Way of Bohemian Rhapsody

The inventive people at VG934 have done a mash-up between Game of Thrones and one of the Suicide Squad trailers…but in the end, it’s really just some awesome Game of Thrones footage cut to the powerful strains of Bohemian Rhapsody. And that’s alright.

Watch out for Season 6 spoilers, in case you haven’t seen those episodes yet.

Sometimes trailer mash-ups are really clever and well done. And sometimes you just make a really awesome video about one thing. That’s good too.

Hench-Sized Comic Book Reviews – 7/9/16

Wow, so, uh, for the first time in the history of my doing this blog, I forgot to post these comic book reviews this morning. I had them all written up and almost ready to go, but I woke up Saturday morning and thought to myself…nothing. I forgot all about them. Then I downloaded Pokemon Go and went for a walk around the city. Well, you understand what that would have done to me. Still, not an excuse! These are super late, and I hope they’re still good!

I tried out Kim & Kim from Black Mask Studios. I read through both Amazing Spider-Man and adjectiveless Spider-Woman. And I even gave both Batman and Punisher a try. Pretty standard week of comics, if I do say so myself.

Comic Book of the Week goes to Silver Surfer #5, because it is still a very delightful comic book.

In this issue, Silver Surfer meets the Amish

Comic Reviews: Amazing Spider-Man #15, Batman #2, Invincible Iron Man #11, Kaijumax #3, Kim & Kim #1, Punisher #3, Silver Surfer #5 and Spider-Woman #9.

Big Hero Six is Still Mostly Cool

Honestly though, I mostly still like it.

Of the recent Disney animated movies, Big Hero Six is not my favorite. But it’s still good, and I can definitely get behind the team-up of Marvel and Disney making movies together. I still wanted an animated Silver Surfer film like this. It would be beyond epic. At least the Screen Junkies are here to tease the movies that do exist.

How Captain America: Civil War Should Have Ended

This one is actually pretty good.

Funny, insightful, well-acted and animated, and with some legit new endings. Hats off to the HISHE people, they did a quality job on this one. And with a quality movie, too. So far, Captain America: Civil War is the film of the summer.

6 Other 90s Kids Show That Deserve a Movie Adaptation

There’s going to be a Power Rangers movie, you guys! Mighty Morphin’ Power Rangers was the show of shows when I was a kid in the 90s! I watched it every day after school. I still consider the Green Ranger one of the greatest heroes of all time. And I have nothing but fond memories of Zordon, the Black Ranger, Lord Zedd and all the rest of those multi-colored knuckleheads. I don’t know if this movie is going to be any good, but my fuzzy memories will never die.

I recall the costumes being plainer

This Power Rangers movie has also got me thinking: have we finally moved on to adapting 90s kids’ shows into live action, realistic movies? Are the 80s already tapped out? We’ve had movies for the Transformers, G.I. Joe, the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, Jem, and I know a new He-Man movie is in the works. The 80s have given us many good to blah movie franchises, but their well of quality kids’ shows is not infinite. Is it time to move on to the 90s?

Good thing I watched kids’ shows back then too, and I’ve got some solid suggestions for Hollywood!
