Star Wars By Way of Guardians of the Galaxy
Some Internet genius mashed up Star Wars with one of those awesome Guardians of the Galaxy trailers. The result is nothing short of brilliance.
Someone give The Unusual Suspect a medal, because he (or they) have won the Internet for today. That was probably the best trailer mash-up I have ever seen. And it makes me re-appreciate Star Wars like never before!
Hench-Sized Comic Book Reviews – 6/21/14
Now this was a good week. I love comics. I’m pretty sure that’s kind of obvious, what with this blog. And it’s weeks like this that remind me why I love them so much. So many good issues, so many fun characters, such good writing and art. Comics are so brilliant these days. And I’m sure I’m barely scratching the surface as I stick to mostly Marvel and DC. There’s probably a world of indie titles that are even better.
Unfortunately, this isn’t the week where I dive headfirst into indie comics. Instead, this is the week where Marvel and DC put out some great books! Not only to we get a couple of big finales in Uncanny X-Men and Thor: God of Thunder, but Wonder Woman has a pretty amazing pre-battle sequence. Quality comics, the lot of them. Over at DC, I was delighted with the new issue of Harley Quinn. And even Batman Eternal managed a few surprises. Can you believe it? Of course, the issue was still pretty crummy, but who doesn’t like surprises? The latest issue of Original Sin was also pretty crummy, but it had a neat surprise too.
Comic Book of the Week would have to be Silver Surfer #3 by Dan Slott and the Family Allred. It’s the most Doctor Whoish issue yet, and that’s just wonderful.
Comic Reviews: Batman Eternal #11, Batwoman #32, Harley Quinn #7, Original Sin #4, Silver Surfer #3, Thor: God of Thunder #23, Uncanny X-Men #22, and Wonder Woman #32.
Spooky Doctor Who Song is Spooky
So I was cruising around the Interwebs today on my day off from work and stumbled upon this nifty Doctor Who song. It’s a few months old, but perhaps you haven’t seen it yet!
I like the tune. It’s spooky and kind of neat. It’s exactly the sort of thing I’d be watching on my day off. It was posted by a fella named Alex Day from his band Chameleon Circuit.
Stop the Dawn of the Planet of the Apes, I Want to Get Off!
Two final trailers have landed for Dawn of the Planet of the Apes, and both are pretty epic. They should have just called this movie ‘Monkeys with Machine Guns’. Actually…I claim that title! Copyright pending!
I’ll definitely be seeing this film on opening weekend. I liked the first one, and this one just looks cool. Less James Franco is always a plus. The movie opens July 11.
Hello! How ‘Bout a Fun Broadway Song!
It took the geniuses of the Internet long enough to mash-up The Book of Mormon with South Park, but the results are just as wonderful as we could have hoped.
As we all know, Trey Parker and Matt Stone are the geniuses behind both, so it was only a matter of time before someone put the two shows together. Why we don’t have a full Book of Mormon cartoon in the South Park style is anyone’s guess. I also still need to go see the show on Broadway one of these days.
This mash-up was made by Simon Chong.
