What a year, in all honesty, 2018 felt like two years- both of which still kinda sucked. But a year in review, when I think of 2018 there is a lot which comes to mind, first of all, is Infinity War, the film that I and many others have been waiting for for the past half a dozen years- it came and it was awesome. Thanos was a great villain and a great Fortnite character for a limited time. I never actually played Fortnite, but yet I know a decent portion of the dances... somehow. I spend most of my time on YouTube and my lord, the first day of the year we saw the suicide forest video from older brother Paul which was appalling but yet something to make fun of. Not because of the contents of the video, but the sociopathic lack in judgment on Logan's half, which lead into a drawn boxing match. In terms of tv, there was no Game of Thrones this year, but there were a few things to make up for it. We got Daredevil season three, and along with half the other Marvel Netflix sh

Hey everyone, I just wanted to say to have a Merry Christmas, I have put out a few things in the past week, I know that the schedule of completely out of whack, but I do have a few things planned between now and the new year, along with more Bumblebee and Aquaman stuff. So Happy Holidays, Merry Christmas, and enjoy this season. Thank you for reading, take care.

The characters from the 1992 Aladdin animated film are iconic in their design and costumes, and here we are with the first character reveals of the Guy Ritchie directed live-action Aladdin. We have seen Mena Massoud as Aladdin, but now we have the reveal of  Naomi Scott as Jasmine, and Will Smith as the Genie. To start off, Naomi Scott looks amazing as Jasmine in this image. The costume has the light blues which the character is known for, and they translate well into live action, along with the subtle middle eastern designs. I am glad that Scott is playing the part, and the character if Jasmine is aged up from the disturbingly young age from the animated film. Aladdin looks like what a live action Aladdin would look like, I did mention before that the age gap between Aladdin and Jasmine is closer and legal. I know that this is a promotional image, but Aladdin does look a little clean, considering that he is more or less a local street boy in  Agrabah. The things I am lookin

The DC Comics story "Crisis On Infinite Earths" is one of the greatest stories ever told in comics, as it involves an infinite amount of characters from around the multiverse, a high range of stakes for the heroes to win, a grand villain, a series of deaths from famous heroes, and of course it all acted as more or less of a reset button on the DC Comics continuity in a fashion. So at the end of the Elseworlds crossover, we got the teaser that next year in 2019 we would see the Crisis on Infinite Earth's storyline be adapted in the DCTV universe. Well first, I want to discuss the original plans I thought would happen with the inevitable Crisis crossover, and what it will turn out to be. So let's get started with my original thoughts back in the earlier seasons of the Flash and DCTV universe. Well, one of the biggest events in Crisis in the comics is that Barry Allen runs so fast to save the multiverse from the anti-monitor which he sacrifices himself to save e

In this episode, we see the introduction of Gotham city in the Arrowverse, as well as Batwoman, and her ties to the urban legend of the "Batman". I will also be calling the character's by their real name, and not their body switch. So spoilers ahead for this episode lets recap.

The Flash, Arrow, and Supergirl come and save Diggle and take down Jericho. At Argus, Felicity is called in and Oliver tells Barry to not tell her about the body switch.

On Earth-90, the Flash is crawling towards a book on the ground among his fellow fallen heroes, however, the book is picked up by the Monitor. The Flash runs away as the Monitor uses the book. On Earth-1, Gotham City, the Monitor hands Dr. John Deegan the book to rewrite reality as he wants.

Back at STAR Labs, the team notices that something is up with who th

Okay, it is finally here, the trailer for Avengers 4, which has been revealed to be “Avengers: Endgame” which I will get into at the end as this trailer offers a series of other things which hint at what is happening in the film such as returning characters, Thanos farming, depressed and shaven Avengers, and a new release date. So let’s get into the trailer breakdown. The trailer opens up with Tony Stark (Robert Downey Jr.) on the ship that the Guardians of the Galaxy used to get to Titan, the “Benatar”, with Nebula (Karen Gillan) to get back to Earth. In this specific scene, we see Tony recording his last message in his nearly destroyed Mark 50 helmet to Pepper as resources are running low. (Even with 5/7th of the Guardians gone, there still aren’t enough resources for two) One thing which stands out in this shot is that Tony looks like what he looked in the cave in the first Iron Man, with the black tank top and the flat hair, a neat parallel to point out from this fil

Season 5 Episode 8 Episode 100 Wow! Time has moved in a flash, as we are here with the 100th episode of the Flash, directed by Tom Cavanaugh himself. In this episode, we see a delightful way that the show honors its past, while also driving this seasons' plot forward. So spoilers ahead for the episode, let's recap. The team needs ways to take down Cicada, and their best shot is to create a device which can counter the bond which Cicada has to his dagger. For this the team needs three items: A piece of strong metal A dark matter transmitter A dark matter power source To get these items, Barry and Nora travel back in time to the night of Savitar's defeat (3.23) for the metal, when Zoom took Barry's speed (2.18) for the dark matter transmitter, and the night the particle accelerator went off (1.01) for the dark matter power source. Suiting up the two go back to the night Savitar is defeated where Nora grabs a piece of the exploded Savitar suit whi
