Today has been the greatest day of my nerd life.

If you are a fan of comics, video games, movies, TV shows, anime, or anything similar…this is the weekend for you. This weekend was the famous San Diego Comic Con, and if you ask me it was the best. Since it started, There have been so many amazing announcements about so many amazing projects. One of my favorites being the official announcement of Ben Affleck directing his own solo Batman movie! Also there were a few comic projects that have me giggling with excitement. One of those being Max Landis finally returning to DC Comics to write a new Superman limited series! These were among the many things that got me going crazy! But there was one thing above all else that I was excited for.

That was the Warner Bros Panel that happened today at Hall H. Rumors had been floating for months that WB would be going nuts this year. Specifically with their DC Comics movies Batman v Superman and Suicide Squad. We also heard that we might finally see the entire cast of the Justice League movie coming out. Sadly, we didn’t get The Justice League. But I’m very happy with what we did get. And I mean VERY HAPPY! One of those things was a first look at Suicide Squad. David Ayer, the writer and director, came up on stage and gave fans a trailer for the upcoming film. He also made a slight joke at the fact that so many aspects of his movie leaked online during filming. Well, looks like it happened again. Some ballsy fan decided to leak the trailer online. And no! I won’t leak it here. You’ll see it when it’s released officially! Also I can’t find a good link, but still!

Anyway, the trailer was amazing! The characters look pitch perfect to me. Whom ever decided to cast Margot Robbie as Harley Quinn is the smartest person alive! The nerd side of me thinks she nails the role perfectly. The guy side of me….Lets just say I have an eternal crush. The other stand out in this trailer was Jared Leto as The Joker. I know people have been bugging about this Joker’s look. Honestly, I think he looks awesome. Sure the forehead Tat is weird, but still. Not a deal breaker. Especially now cause his performance in the trailer alone is perfect! His Joker voice gave me the chills, as well as his laugh! Joker is tied with Batman as my favorite character, and I’m so happy so far with these two new takes.

Speaking of which, The other trailer they played was for Batman v Superman. The previous trailer I thought was pretty awesome, but this new one….OH. MY. GOD! This trailer made my entire day! First off, this trailer was epic. Every aspect of it was grand and exciting! Everything! The dialog, the action, the background score, the costumes! OH! MY! GOD! I hate to say this stupid phrase, but I just can’t even! I really can’t! Second, I loved seeing the new characters in this trailer. Gal Gadot as Wonder Woman looks incredible! Bad ass and Beautiful. Her role is still a mystery, but I’m alright with that.

Affleck really looks like the perfect Batman and Bruce Wayne. We get more of the latter in this trailer, but we also get some awesome action scenes with The Dark Knight. The real stand out was Jesse Eisenberg as Lex Luthor for me. A lot of fans were skeptical about this casting choice, but I’m already sold. Eisenberg’s performance in this trailer alone is better than most of the comic book villains we’ve had from other movies. He has the Lex attitude, but brings his own flair to the table. And I love the stupid wig he has on. Classic. Anyway, you probably are getting tired of me rambling on about this trailer. You’d probably like to watch it yourself. GUESS WHAT?!?! If you click on that awesome new Comic Con poster for BvS, it will take you to the new trailer!! So? What are you waiting for? GO WATCH IT!

Jesse Eisenberg as Lex Luthor!!! (COMICS!)

SEE! I told you it was gonna be awesome!

So, we have slowly been getting first looks at all the various characters that will be appearing in the DC Cinematic Universe. Mainly just the cast of Batman V. Superman. First we had a look at Batman. Followed by Superman and Wonder Woman at Comic Con. And most recently we saw the awesome Jason Momoa as Aquaman! However the one character we’ve all been curious about mostly, and you know it’s true don’t deny it, is Lex Luthor. Now, after a really LONG wait, we’ve finally got our first look! Zack Snyder, director of Man of Steel and Batman V. Superman, had an interview of Entertainment weekly. And along with the interview, we got our first look at Lex! I’ve always been a supporter of the Eisenberg casting since I heard it. It’s not the first choice, but it’s an excellent choice anyway. And now seeing him as Lex makes me even more ecstatic! Eisenberg looks incredible! Very sinister and maniacal. Now all I wanna see is that trailer! GET THE HECK ON IT WARNER BROS! Anyway, what do you all think of this? Let me know in the comments!

HELLO EVERYONE!!! Man, it feel’s like it’s been forever since I posted something! How have you all been? Good? Bad? Hopefully the former and not the latter. ANYWAY, I am back and I’m ready to rock! For today, I have a video game review…and a Movie review and a Blu-Ray review.

That’s right, folks. I review three big geeky things in my latest video. First up, I take a look at the blu-ray release for the most loved and hated superhero movie of 2013: Man of Steel. If you don’t remember, I actually enjoyed the film a lot, especially after a few more viewings, but how is the blu-ray? Watch the video and find out!

Also, I take a look at Thor: The Dark World, which is the latest film released in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. I was incredibly excited to see this movie. I mean, who wouldn’t be? You have a Game of Thrones director tackling Thor! Who wouldn’t be pumped! All that being said, was it all worth it in the end? Again, watch the video and find out! Finally, I review the latest Batman game to hit the shelves: Arkham Origins.

This item takes top billing this week, mainly because I felt this would grab more attention than the other two things. Either way, all of this stuff is reviewed! It’s pretty exciting, right? Anyway, as usual, if you want to watch the videos, click on the pretty picture above! Also, if you like what you see, go ahead and subscribe to my YouTube channel: Channel23hahaha!

BatFleck: The Silver Linings (COMICS!)

Batfleck

“Argo f@*k yourself, Superman.” (Can this please be a line in Batman vs. Superman?)

As you may have heard, Warner Bros has announced that Ben Affleck will be playing Batman in the Man of Steel Sequel, also known as Batman vs. Superman, coming in 2015. If you HAVEN’T heard about this, GUESS WHAT?!?! Anyway, when I first heard this news, I turned into a raging fanboy. I was so upset about all of this! I belted out things like “WTF IS THIS S#!t!” and “Affleck?! NO! NO! NO!” It got pretty ugly, let me tell you! However, as time had past, I was able to calm myself. I was able to think on this news rationally and logically. At this point, I had made my Affleck as Batman video, which I posted on this site, giving my thoughts on this news. Spoiler Alert, I basically said I’ll give Affleck a chance. While I don’t think I can see Affleck in the role without me going “That’s just Affleck as Batman”, I’m willing to give him a shot. Because, the thing is, you can’t judge someone’s performance without even seeing it. It’s not fair to the performer, you know?

Now, unlike myself, it seems the internet has continued to rage on and on about this. So much so, that fans have started to make petitions and death threats. Yea, I’m not even kidding you. Fans are so mad about this, they have made petitions and death threats because Ben Affleck is playing Batman. Seriously? Seriously, fanboys? Why are you making Batman fans look bad? First you attack critics about hating on The Dark Knight Rises, and now this? FOR SHAME, BATMAN FANS! So, because of this continued rage fest on BatFleck, I felt I should make a part 2. A second take on this news that, hopefully, will show fans a few silver linings in having Ben Affleck as Batman. Silver linings, mind you, that have come from a Batman fanboy whom still doesn’t see him in the role!

Silver Lining #1: Ben Affleck is a comic book fan

It’s been stated in the past that Affleck is, in fact, a big comic book fan. I mean, with friends like Kevin Smith and his crew, your bound to end up being a fan! This is a great thing because Affleck can use his knowledge of the source material, and apply that to his performance. That’s exactly what he did when he played Daredevil! Granted, Daredevil isn’t a well liked film, even by Affleck, its safe to say he wasn’t the reason it wasn’t good. In fact, while I didn’t love him, he was probably my favorite thing about that movie. Affleck was able to capture the true essence of the character, even if it was hard to see him as Daredevil without seeing Affleck. This is especially the case in the awesome director’s cut of the film, which I just watched today! So, to have a fan of the source material playing the role is a big benefit, I think.

Silver Lining #2: The guy looks like a superhero

You have to admit, with that jaw and his good looks, the man looks like a superhero. I mean, if he didn’t, director’s wouldn’t have cast him as a Daredevil or George Reeves as Superman, am I right? Admittedly, I do think Affleck should bulk up a bit, which He has started doing, but other then that he has the look. Plus, if you look up some of the photoshop work of Affleck as Batman, you might be surprised how great he looks. Again, it’s just a photoshop, but it still looks great:

Silver Lining #3: The possibility of Ben Affleck directing the Batman reboot!

This is probably my biggest silver lining! It’s so big that, if it were announced in the next few weeks, I’d be a BatFleck super fan! As it is well known, Affleck has been trying to start a career as a director. So far, the guy has yet to miss a step! Gone Baby Gone, The Town, and Argo are, in my opinion, three of the best films to come out in the past few years! So, now that he is cast as Batman, we are that much closer to the possibility of Affleck directing a Batman film! How f@*king awesome would that be, huh? It would be the greatest news ever! I mean, the simple notion of him being asked to direct a Justice League movie a while ago was exciting. To be honest, I could see Affleck making BatFilms far superior to Nolan’s! YEP! I SAID IT! SO, DEAL WITH IT!

So, those are my silver linings to BatFleck! Hopefully this will calm down some of the nerd rage. I doubt it will for many reasons, but I hope it helps, anyway. At the end of the day, and I’m sure this is true for other BatFans as well, all I really want is a great live action portrayal of Batman on screen. As I’ve said in the past, I don’t feel there has been a perfect live action Batman performance yet, but there have been great versions. If Ben Affleck can deliver that performance, then that will be awesome! I will gladly stand corrected, and support Affleck all the way! In conclusion, I say this: To all the BatFans out there. If someone with similar thoughts can find the silver linings to BatFleck, can’t you?

“I am vengeance! I am the night! I AM…..hopefully not being played by Ryan Gosling.” – Batman

As you may have heard, Zack Snyder is going to follow up Man of Steel with a Batman/Superman film! Now, depending on your opinion of MoS depends on your excitement about this news. For me, I am freaking out! Batman and Superman! Together in a live-action movie! So, in hearing this news, the biggest question fans have been asking is this: Who is going to play Bruce Wayne/Batman?!?! That is the question I address in my latest episode of COMICS! I talk about the various actors, the qualities needed to play Batman, and my choice for who should play him! To view, as usual, click on the photo above!

Man of Steel’s Ending: Good or Bad? *SPOILERS* (COMICS!)

562090_591741157504154_187639523_n

Another Man of Steel video? REALLY?!?! DISLIKE!

Man of Steel. We’ve already talked about it a bunch. Dan did an episode on it. I did an episode on it. Man, what more is there to talk about? Well, there is this one thing. Whenever I talk to my friends that didn’t like Man of Steel, the main complaint they mention is the way the movie ended. I won’t say what, but something happens that others have argued is VERY out of character for Superman. No, he doesn’t reveal himself to be a British actor, if you get my reference. So, I wanted to address this event in it’s own video. Why? I really don’t know, but I did it anyway. So, to hear my thoughts on Man of Steel’s ending, as usual, click on the picture above!
