Batman: Caped Crusader Looks Pretty Sweet!
There’s a new Batman cartoon coming! We haven’t had one of those in a few years, and this one looks to be pretty spiffy! Batman: Caped Crusader is going to focus on Batman in a 1920s/30s/40s aesthetic, I don’t know which decade this looks to be exactly. It’s all tommy guns and gangsters in full suits. I love the look and feel of the show, based on this first trailer.
As always, I hope we get Robin eventually. But even without the Boy Wonder, this looks very awesome to me. I love the look, I love the feel, I love the focus this trailer puts on detective work. I love the sense of Batman being this lone crusader working from the shadows, instead of already being an omnipresent superhero of might. This trailer looks great!
Batman: Caped Crusader is coming to Amazon Prime starting Aug. 1!

Some Good TV Shows Are Coming Back!
The finale of X-Men ’97 dropped today, but I can’t watch it until my viewing buddy gets online later tonight. So expect my season review List of Six tomorrow! Today, I’ll busy myself with some trailers for some TV shows I like.
For example, turns out they’re making a second season of The Rings of Power! Not everybody enjoyed that show, but I definitely did, and I’m looking forward to a second season!
I enjoyed the first season of The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power, despite the clunky name. It had plenty of great LoTR elements, and I really enjoyed the mysterious figure and the proto-hobbits. This trailer leans far far more into the death, evil and destruction side of things, which is fine. But hopefully the whimsy isn’t gone forever.
The Rings of Power returns to Amazon Prime on Aug. 29.
Also, did you see that LEGO has announced an Eye of Sauron/Barad-dur set? Holy crap!
Moving on, there’s going to be a fourth season of Only Murders in the Building!
I enjoy this show as well! Though a lot of people do, so it’s definitely not Rings of Power. The three leads have great chemistry and are super fun together. And I enjoy the mystery element as well. I actually guessed the killer right in one of the seasons! Then guessed wrong in the other two seasons. Oh well. This looks like a lot of fun and can’t wait to return to the show!
Only Murders in the Building season 4 returns to Hulu on Aug. 27.

New Season of The Boys is Gonna Be Gnarly
The Boys is a pretty great show. I enjoyed the comic, but the show has definitely deviated a ton from the comics and is its own thing. And that thing is hugely entertaining! We got a trailer yesterday for the upcoming fourth season!
I don’t remember if the fourth season will be the last or not…probably not? But it looks awesome, looks to be more goodness, and the students from Gen V are mixed in there as well. That should be a hoot! The whole thing should be a ton of fun to watch and I can’t wait.
Oh, also, happy Star Wars Day! I don’t have anything Star Warsy to share…definitely gonna watch Tales of the Sith this weekend.
The Boys new season comes to Amazon Prime on June 13.

6 Thoughts on the First Season of Fallout
Like many people, I had my doubts about a Fallout TV show. Video game adaptations have a bad reputation, even though I still have faith in most of them. And I love Fallout as much as the next gamer. So could they pull it off? Could they make it work? Apparently, they can knock it out of the goddam park!
TV Show Rating: 9/10 – Great
I was a little worried after seeing the first teaser trailer for the Fallout show, but the second trailer was awesome and I was fully on board. I don’t think Amazon Prime should have released the whole show in one day, I think Fallout could have benefited from a weekly release, but those choices aren’t mine to make. I managed to finally watch all the episodes this week so it’s now review time!
Join me after the jump for my thoughts and review on the first season of Fallout. Expect FULL SPOILERS for the whole show! And feel free to share your own thoughts in the comments below.

We got a new trailer yesterday for the upcoming Fallout TV show, and I like this trailer a lot better than the first one. This trailer really shows off the world and plot of Fallout, from the Vault Dweller stuff to the Brotherhood of Steel to so much more. This is a great-looking trailer for a great-looking show!
I love the look of this. All of the iconography is perfect. The mood is perfect. Walter Goggins is going to really bring it! I really like the transition of the Vault Dweller from beginning to end. Everything looks solid!
And awesome news: every single episode of Fallout will be available on the same day, when it launches on Amazon Prime on April 11!
