Avenger’s Doomsday Trailer

Out of the blue, the first official Avengers’ Doomsday trailer dropped. I was not expecting this. They had a few teaser trailers a few months ago featuring Thor, the X-Men, The Fantastic Four and Wakandans, and Steve Rogers. If you haven’t seen it yet, check it out …

It looks pretty good. I’m excited to see more of Channing Tatum as Gambit; he was always one of my favorites from the 80s cartoons.

I wonder if this will be enough to pull the MCU out of its downward spiral. Since the Infinity Saga ended, the films have had hits and misses. More of the latter.

We have to wait until December 18th to find out.

Before I say too much about this trailer, you should probably check it out. FYI, if you saw the newest Avatar movie (Avatar: Fire and Ash), apparently, this trailer premiered with that movie. Watch this trailer before reading any further.

James Gunn’s story about the son of Krypton has its first teaser trailer. It’s not often that I post many trailers that don’t pertain to Star Wars, but maybe I should. Perhaps I will try to do more of it as long as it’s something I think is interesting and I have some thoughts to share. Without further ado, here is James Gunn’s Superman teaser trailer.

The Case for Jar Jar Binks

Jar Jar

It seems I’m always defending Jar Jar, the movies, or Ahmed Best. While I still live by the philosophy to “be your own fan“, sometimes I like to discuss my reasons. My intent is to inform and not to persuade. Admittedly, Ahmed Best (and vicariously Jar Jar) is receiving more adoration than animosity. However, sometimes I still like to make a case for Jar Jar Binks.

Why am I talking about Jar Jar, again?

Happy Geek Pride and Towel Day

Happy Geek Pride and Towel Day! Today is the day you celebrate what makes you a geek. Do something that really makes you happy. Something that you are passionate about. It could be watching your favorite movie or TV show, reading your favorite book, playing a video game, running a race, building a car, baking anything! Anything that brings joy to your life and reduces stress. After this past year, we all need to embrace the things that help us get through the rough times.

It’s also Towel Day so remember, whatever you do today, always know where your towel is!

Aside from working, my plans for the day will be watching A New Hope (since May 25th is its US release anniversary), probably some reading (most likely Dresden Files), and playing some video games (World of Warcraft). I will be doing all of that, with a towel in my hand.

Happy Geek Pride and Towel Day to all the geeks of the world!

“When I was a kid, it was a huge insult to be a geek. Now it’s a point of pride in a weird way.” – J.J. Abrams
