We Started the Week With Some Awesome Music, Lets End the Week the Same Way!
This one is for all the fans of David Grohl and the Foo Fighters! Some dude in Italy put together a 1,000-person rock band to play a massive cover of ‘Learn to Fly’. Since I love the song, let’s enjoy us some rock and/or roll!
That was pretty awesome! I especially enjoyed all the in-sync drummers. Now let’s all make this a Rock & Roll weekend! Personally, I’m off to Boston Comic-Con! Woohoo!

This Takes Time, Dedication and a Probably a Bunch of Arts & Crafts!
Kudos to the CineFix people for the neat stuff they make, like this homemade Ant-Man trailer!
Sometimes I wish my job involved being awesome and zany on the Internet. This blog isn’t nearly zany enough sometimes! But man, just look at all the work that had to have gone into this thing. The costumes, the sets, the actors, the neat little details.Why aren’t my friends or co-workers more into zany arts & crafts?

My 6 Favorite Superhero Movie Costumes
Once upon a time, it was not cool to be a superhero movie. Nowadays, people are gushing about Spider-Man’s next cinematic costume at Marvel, and movie-makers are promising that the X-Men in their new Apocalypse film are going to wear comics-accurate costumes. But back in the day, superhero costumes were too dorky to wear! Do you all remember the original X-Men movie and the matching black leather? That’s what you needed to have to make a superhero movie before they were cool.
Thank God we don’t live in that sort of world anymore!
They were indeed dark days
I have long since given up being a stickler about comic-to-movie adaptations. I’m actually in favor of changes, cosmetic or otherwise, as long as it’s a good movie. I didn’t mind the all-leather X-Men costumes, or that weird homemade costume in the first Amazing Spider-Man, or even the original red leather Daredevil costume. But like everybody else, I’ve got my favorites!
Join me after the jump to see my six favorite superhero (or villain) costumes at the movies!
The Wasp is Definitely Coming to the Marvel Cinematic Universe!
Normally I try to stay on top of cool casting announcements in all the best superhero TV shows and movies, but this one is trickier. If you haven’t seen Ant-Man yet, I don’t want to spoil anything. But at the same time, this is a pretty big deal. Anytime Marvel pushes a female superhero in their movies needs to be a big deal now.
She was a founding Avenger, gosh darn it!
So I’m going to save all the key information until after the jump. Just know that Marvel Studios Grand Master, Kevin Feige, has confirmed that the Wasp will appear somewhere in Phase 3. She won’t show up with Ant-Man in next year’s Captain America: Civil War. But there are going to be a bunch of Phase 3 films, including the two-part Infinity War. So she’ll likely debut in one of those.
Join me after the jump for the lowdown on the Wasp and a look at her costume! SPOILERS for Ant-Man — which, for the record, was a really good movie!
I’ve Seen Better Batman vs. Superman Battles
It seems that Batman fighting Superman is all the rage now, and the Internet isn’t about to deal with that lying down.
Not quite an epic rap battle of history, but I’ll take it! Quality animation, stylish rhymes, hip beats…and the like. I dunno. I’m hardly a good judge of a rap battle. But major kudos to Top Trending for making this happen!
