Weird Trailers Could Be a Thing!
So apparently this guy Aldo Jones takes movie trailers and Photoshops the heck out of them! Or whatever the program is that allows him to completely alter video and add wackiness. You tell me. But here’s Jones taking a hilarious crack at the Justice League trailer.
That altered trailer is sufficiently wacky. And he’s got a whole bunch of Weird Trailers to enjoy and waste the day with! Sounds good to me.

6 Minor Things that Really Grind My Gears
This List is all about gripes. We’ve all got gripes. Be they big complaints or minor nitpicks, none of us is perfectly happy with every single facet of the world. I’ve gone on a few rants in my day on this blog, sometimes over little things. I can’t even remember them all. But over time, I’ve been collecting a few specific things that really grind my gears and I’ve put them into a new List of Six.
Too many listicles
I’m sure I have a lot more gripes and complaints with the world than these six. But these ones are still pretty good. They’re just facets of the world that get under my skin, like nails on a chalkboard. These are all probably completely innocuous, but I just want to get them off my chest.
Join me after the jump for six dumb little things that really grind my gears. And feel free to share some of your own in the comments!
Speaking of Batman Movies…
I haven’t seen Batman: The Killing Joke yet, and I don’t think I will. I haven’t been a fan of the DC animated movies for awhile now, and this one just sounds terrible. Thankfully, Honest Trailers sums it up for me nicely.
Honestly, I don’t even know if I’ve read The Killing Joke comic…

Deathstroke as the Batman Villain? Sure!
The big news that dropped yesterday was Ben Affleck teasing some test footage of Deathstroke the Terminator, with some people confirming that he will be the villain in the upcoming solo Batman movie. He may even make an appearance in the Justice League flick.
I am totally cool with this. Here’s a villain that Batman can actually fight hand-to-hand, and based on what we saw in Batman v. Superman, that’s hopefully going to be a priority. No more of this movie Batman who is too stiff in his suit to actually get into fisticuffs. Ben Affleck’s Batman is gonna kick butt from dusk until dawn, and Deathstroke is perfect for that role. Bring it on!

What Thor Did On His Civil War Vacation
I’ve been waiting for this comedy short to be posted since we first heard about it at San Diego Comic-Con! The director of Thor: Ragnarok has produced a little short about what Thor is up to during the events of Captain America: Civil War. Why didn’t he get involved? Why didn’t Tony or Steve give him a call? Watch and find out!
Hilarious. Definitely lived up to the hype. If this is the sort of quality and potential comedy we can expect in Ragnarok, I’m even more excited than ever! And I love that Marvel is open to doing things like this. It just enlivens the whole experience. Plus, they might as well use the actors for everything they can while the contracts still hold.
