Finally, Something That Isn’t Star Wars!
Although to be honest, I’m not sure why Honest Trailers isn’t doing Star Wars right now. Or have they already done those films? Either way, here’s the Screen Junkies‘ take on Dawn of the Planet of the Apes!
I like the new Apes franchise. The movies are well-made and Andy Serkis is a total star. Solid work all around!
I Think The Internet is Broken
I don’t…I don’t know what’s going on, everybody. I’m surfing the web trying to find some content to share, but all I’m coming up with is more Star Wars: The Force Awakens parody videos! Here’s one done with scenes from Spaceballs!
All anyone has been able to do for the past few days is make Star Wars parodies! It’s maddening! And if I had any skill whatsoever with those movie-maker programs, I’d probably make one too! This is what the Internet has become: an endless parade of Star Wars: The Force Awakens parody videos. Why didn’t anybody warn us?
At least Stephen Colbert is here to put the lightsaber argument to rest!
Another Star Wars Parody Trailer for this Slow Monday
Mondays are sometimes slow. It happens. I’m not a news machine. So without anything all that great so post for you folks, how about another parody of the Star Wars: The Force Awakens trailer? This time, Youtuber Bobby Burns did Guardians of the Galaxy in the style of the new teaser trailer.
And it’s terrible! Not Burns’ edit, mind you, but the trailer itself. Burns did a fantastic job, but man, if that was the actual Guardians of the Galaxy trailer, I would be so disappointed. It has exactly zero of the charm of the real Guardians of the Galaxy trailers. Remember those? Those were a work of art!
As is this, from a technical definition, in that trailer re-edits are probably some kind of art.
Star Wars: The Force Awakens Parodies Are Exactly What We’d Want
The Star Wars: The Force Awakens trailer was pretty awesome this week, and, of course, the Internet is full of parodies right now. Whether it’s mocking the new lightsaber, general fan art or everything else, everybody can’t stop talking about the new trailer! That’s a good thing. Fans are energized! And some fans have gone above and beyond, creating some neat parody trailers.
Like this trailer, done all in LEGO by Snooperking.
Good times. That’s a man who’s dedicating to his parodying. There are plenty of other LEGO versions on Youtube as well, if you want to check them out.
Then we have this gloriously hilarious trailer, showing us the George Lucas Special Edition version of the trailer!
Somehow, that joke never gets old. Kudos to timtimfed for getting it done!

Hench-Sized Comic Book Reviews – 11/29/14
Happy Turkey Week, Comic Book fans! Did everybody have a good Thanksgiving? And for those of you who don’t celebrate, did you have a good Thursday? I had a blast. I always get together with my family, and they’re a good group of people. I made banana bread, because it’s nice to contribute something, especially if it’s my favorite dish. I’m a grown up now, I should contribute.
Speaking of contributing, how about adding some more comic book reviews to the Internet? I know I can’t get enough! We’ve got new issues of Aquaman, Arkham Manor, Superior Iron Man and more, but the real standout this week is the (regrettably) final issue of Superior Foes of Spider-Man! Why couldn’t this series have done better or lasted longer? It was so much fun!
But all good things must come to an end. Or maybe it’s that we can’t have nice things? Surely one of the two.
Comic Reviews: Aquaman #36, Arkham Manor #2, Batman Eternal #34, Scarlet Spiders #1, Superior Foes of Spider-Man #17 and Superior Iron Man #2.
