I ran to the restroom to remove my contacts.
I watched World of Warcraft themed FaceOff last night on SyFy and completely geeked out at the draeni and troll! It makes me want to start playing again! Also super excited for the first Warcraft movie in June!!!! :D Been waiting years and years for this!
Just saw Batman V Superman. The entire movie was fantastic. I thought the whole movie flowed and had continuity, but I'm a DC fan and I know all the backstories. I literally cried when Wonder Woman enter the main battle scene. It was blow your socks off awesome, so amazing!!!
Ok, I have to admit something. I finally made myself watch the JJ Abrams' Star Wars, and....wow. I've never liked Stars Wars ever in my life. I always thought it was dumb, boring, and just couldn't follow it. But the new one was excellent! I should have known, everything JJ Abrams touches turns to gold.
Saw this last night. After hearing all the negative reviews, and the steep box office drop, I went in with low expectations. Overall, I enjoyed it, but felt it was a little too long. Yes, it helps a LOT if you already have a thorough knowledge of the comics, and I can understand why many average moviegoers may have been confused as hell about certain things, like [SPOILERS] Robin's costume, the Parademons, and especially the time-travelling Flash cameo.
Also:
Kinda got lost on how everyone figured out everyone else's secret identities.
Really liked Ben Affleck's Batman, and Jeremy Irons' Alfred.
Loved Gal Gadot (and her accent) as Wonder Woman.
Did not care for this version of Lex Luthor, although it's not really Eisenberg's fault. I may be harboring resentment that those early Bryan Cranston rumors weren't true.
Oh, and Batman seems to kill a lot of people. That's not right...
Surprised that they're apparently doing the "Death of Superman" story. I wonder if they'll adapt the comics and include Cyborg Superman et al.
Did you notice that the actors who play Bruce's parents are Maggie and Negan from "The Walking Dead"?[/SPOILERS]
Bonus: the trailer for the LEGO Batman movie ran ahead of BvS. Awesome.
ROGUE ONE trailer. Thoughts?

^^Honestly, that doesn't look interesting to me at all. All the characters are different, wtf? And it doesn't have the same feeling as The Force Awakens. Did JJ Abrams even do that one?
It's supposed to be a prequel, set just before the first movie (the 1977 original). This isn't a main sequence film. Rey and Finn and Poe aren't in it. Disney hasn't done a very good job of explaining that. Good news, though, is Ewan McGreggor is open to an Obi-Wan Kenobi movie...
Its about the people who stole the plans for the original Death Star.
If any of that makes sense.
I wonder why they thought "Rouge One" was a story that needed to be told? We already know that they succeed in stealing the plans, so where's the drama? And why make yet another movie set before "A New Hope" when there's so much interesting ground to cover between "Return of the Jedi" and "The Force Awakens"? I think the answer may be: DARTH VADER. There have been rumors that he appears in this movie, possibly playing a large part.
There's a very brief shot of the Emperor's guards (the red guys) in the trailer, so it seems likely that the two of them will show up. Vader=$$$
And the red guys were my favorite Star Wars figure as a kid. They had cloth capes and were just so damn cool looking...
How else are you going to have Darth Vader? He dies in Return of the jedi. Disney is not stupid. Wanna use Darth Vader, gotta make a disconnected movie of it. One doesn't pay four BILLION dollars for a property and not use every aspect of it.
Disney paid four billion for this franchise, there is no way they would limit themselves to a trilogy every 20 years.
Elektra, look!
Neil Gaiman to adapt Terry Pratchett’s "Good Omens" for TV.
Wow...
Quote:
Gaiman previously stated that he would not be adapting the novel without Pratchett, who died in March of 2015 of a rare form of early-onset Alzheimer’s disease. Recalling a conversation with Pratchett’s longtime assistant Rob Wilkins, Gaiman explained why he didn’t want to adapt the work.
“Terry and I had a deal that we would only work on ‘Good Omens’ things together. Everything that was ever written – bookmarks and tiny little things – we would always collaborate, everything was a collaboration. So, obviously, no.”
However, the author had a change of heart after he received a letter written by Pratchett, intended to be read after his death, urging Gaiman to write the adaptation himself. Gaiman made the announcement that he will be penning the adaptation at a memorial held for Pratchett in London earlier this week. It was also revealed that the adaptation would be in the form of a six-part television series.
Holly shit so am I!!!
Last week's "Game of Thrones" premiere was a little disappointing to me.
Tonight's episode made up for that.
Apparently there's a new Lara Croft (Tomb Raider). Alicia Vikander (not sure who this is, though). She was in Ex Machina as Ava. A movie I've heard good stuff about yet have never seen.
