Epic The Martian Trailer is Epic

The second trailer for Matt Damon’s The Martian flick landed on the Internet yesterday, and it’s pretty stunning.

Man, I can’t remember the last time a trailer really hit me like this one. It’s not as actiony epic as an Age of Ultron trailer, but this is some powerful stuff. Good use of music, good use of character. I’m definitely going to see this one when it comes out in November!

Everybody was a Little Surprised that Kingsman: The Secret Service was Such a Neat Movie

I liked it. And I like Mark Millar comics, though I haven’t read Kingsman. But it’s a neat, catchy, pretty fly sort of flick. And Honest Trailers has their usual fun with it.

Though I notice they didn’t make fun of the main character’s name being ‘Eggsy’. What’s up with that?

6 Superheroes Who Would Look Good in Robo-Suits

I don’t know about you, but I’d say the new Robo-Batman is a big success so far! The story is cool, the concept is engaging, and it’s a refreshing new status quo for the Dark Knight. We all know it won’t last, but for now, I’m enjoying the mech suit ride.

Bunny ears are optional

Which got me thinking: what other superheroes would benefit from a robo-upgrade? I’m talking the full Iron Man treatment! What superheroes would look pretty stellar in their own Iron Man-esque suit of robo-armor? Join me after the jump to help speculate!

And if it’s alright with you, I’m just going to pretend that Avengers: United They Stand doesn’t exit.

So Much Star Wars News!

Disney held their annual super-expo the other day, and among other awesome things, they revealed a ton of new Star Wars news! Being a big Star Wars fan, that seemed like a pretty swell thing to me.

First up, they released this awesome new poster for The Force Awakens, by artist Drew Struzan, who drew famous posters for the other movies!

So wait, the stormtrooper guy from the trailer now has a lightsaber? So much for my Stormtrooper Jedi fan-fic!

Looks pretty cool!

As for the other news? Disney has decided to build new Star Wars-themed additions to their theme parks! Both Disney World is Florida and Disneyland in California will be getting giant additions, multiple acres worth. People are calling them the biggest ever additions at Disney parks!

It's good to see that the Falcon will actually fly

These new additions will involve a new alien world, full of lush greenery, Star Wars-style buildings, and probably a 50s era diner populated by aliens and droids. Amiright?

There’s also going to be a ride based on the Millennium Falcon, and if this picture is to be believed, maybe a full-sized replica? That would be amazing!

Oh wait, this is probably just concept art

My family are huge Disney fans. I’ve been to Disney World three times in my life, and I have fine memories of each time. We’re definitely going to have to make plans to visit this new Star Wars park when it’s done. Maybe my parents will have grandchildren by then!

Glorious, glorious concept art

Captain America Gets a Wicked New Trailer

Some enterprising souls on the Internet decided to have some fun, as they are wont to do, and remixed a Captain America trailer in the hip hop stylings of the Deadpool trailer. It’s worth a watch on this Monday morning.

Good going, Daily Asgardian News!

In other Captain America news, the first trailer for next year’s Civil War was shown at the big Disney Expo over the weekend. From all accounts, it sounds pretty awesome. I doubt we’ll see anything concrete for awhile, but it’s good to know that people are excited for the next big Marvel movie!
