Notice: Season 3 of The Bear Coming Soon
The Bear is one of the best TV shows coming out right now. Believe me when I say that it lives up to all the hype. Had I watched the second season when it came out last year, it would have been my favorite show of the year with ease. I plan on watching season 3 when it comes out on time next month.
Some spoilers in this little trailer, so don’t watch if you aren’t caught up.
Season 3 should be a hoot! Plenty of places to go, plenty of drama and comedy to be had. I can’t wait!
The Bear returns to Hulu on June 27.

Hench-Sized Comic Book Reviews – 5/25/24
What am I supposed to do when all of my favorite comics come out in the same week?! I’m trying to give myself less work to do, but now we’ve got Power Rangers, Nightwing and Wonder Woman coming out in the same darn week!
Comic Book of the Week goes to Void Rivals #9 for an excellent crossover with Transformers.
Meanwhile, I’m still working my way through God of War: Ragnarok. I love these games and make sure to 100% as much as I can, just because the game is fun to play and the rewards are fun to collect. I’m just ahead of the endgame now, so it won’t be much longer. Beyond that, I started to read The Nice House on the Lake by James Tynion IV and Alvaro Martinez, and it’s great! I got Vol. 1 for Christmas, finally read it and immediately ordered Vol. 2. Really good comic!
Comic Reviews: Mighty Morphin Power Rangers #20, Nightwing #114, Void Rivals #9 and Wonder Woman #9.

So there’s gonna be a legacy sequel to Beetlejuice. Michael Keaton proved in The Flash that he’s game for playing his famous characters from the 80s again, so here we are. Beetlejuice Beetlejuice, which obviously implies the desire to make a threequel eventually. I dunno. I just don’t care about this one.
But maybe other people care, so I share the trailer so you can decide for yourself. Seems like they’re taking all the afterlife infrastructure from the first film and blowing it up. It also looks like they’re really leaning into the aesthetics and goofiness of the first film, in a throwback sort of way. That might be interesting. But I never particularly cared for the first film, so I don’t particularly care about this sequel.
I loved the spin-off cartoon show for some reason though…
Beetlejuice Beetlejuice comes to theaters on…Sept. 6…which is my birthday. Gorramit.

6 Things I Want To See in the Second Season of X-Men ’97
The first season of X-Men ’97 was a masterpiece. It was perfect from beginning to end. And one of the best parts of the series was how it took multiple storylines from the comics and condensed and reworked them to fit the show’s own, largely original storyline. It was brilliantly done. I gave the show a perfect 10/10 score in my review last week. Loved it!
So what about season 2?
X-Men ’97 has already been confirmed for a second and third season. In fact, season 2 is already in production. Showrunner Beau DeMayo has been fired by Marvel for reasons that have not yet been revealed, but he wrote a lot of the scripts for season 2, so there should be some quality assured. But aside from Apocalypse being a main focus, season 2 could feature pretty much anything and anyone. Season 1 was also filled to the brim with cameos and Easter Egg character appearances. Anyone could appear from anywhere in the franchise.
I did a List of Six years ago about characters and concepts I hoped to see in X-Men ’97. Nothing on that list came to pass. Now that we know what we can expect from this show, I’ve put together a new list specifically for what I’d like to see in season 2! And expect FULL SPOILERS for season 1 in this list as I discuss what I’d like to see happen next!

But, like, Wicked has been a famous stage play for a very long time now, so who is really complaining? I’ve never even seen Wicked on stage, but I’m pretty sure I know the story just from listening to the song and general online discourse. Still, consider this a warning before you watch the trailer for the upcoming Wicked movie: it gives the whole story away.
I think this movie looks neat. I’m never going to see the Broadway show of Wicked, so a movie is right up my alley. It’s supposed to be a great production, with great songs, and I think this movie — the first of two parts — should do nicely for my viewing needs. I wanna see Wicked! And on the big screen is the way I see things, so bring it on!
Wicked comes to theaters on Nov. 26.
