WONDER WOMAN 1984 (SPOILERS)


   Finally after all this time because of COVID, we get to watch the second Wonder Woman movie. Thanks to the HBO Max app, I get to anyways. Of course I would rather watch this on the big screen and not my home tv, but cause of the current situations with the theaters it is what it is. 

   I really enjoyed the first Wonder Woman, even though the CGI ending was a little hard to watch. Over all it was a great movie portraying one of the greatest DC Comics characters. I have a lot of thoughts on this long awaited squeal.

BIRDS OF PREY REVIEW

   Harley Quinn has always been a favorite character of mine from the DC Universe since she debuted in the cartoon Batman: The Animated Series. I was excited to find out she was going to be brought to the big screen when she was in the Suicide Squad, which is not everyone's favorite movie, but I thought it was okay. With her popular soaring even more after Margo Robbie portrayed her in the Suicide Squad, it was a no brainier to have her star in her own movie. And with the big competition DC has in what Marvel has done with there superhero universe, it also makes sense to expand there's with spin off movies like this one.

TEEN TITANS GO! TO THE MOVIES REVIEW

   First off, no spoilers. Over the weekend I saw the new Teen Titans Go movie that came out on July 27, 2018. If you have been on the fence about see this movie, don't be, this is a must see. It had me laughing from start to finish. All the funny references, from past and current DC and Marvel movies and comics was brilliantly written in to the movie. And you got to love that Nicholas Cage finally got to play Superman, even if it was a voice over roll.

Who Will Win The Day:Marvel Or DC Comics

   In the next couple of months there are two huge comic book movies coming out. Captain America: Civil War for Marvel and Batman Vs Superman for DC Comics. The stage is set for hero vs hero. Which movie are fans wanting more? Both have big hype around them, but who will come out on top of the box office?

   I can only talk from my point of view, but I am excited for both these movies. As a superhero fan since I was a kid, this is a great time for me. Comic book movies are the new norm. Where as before, they was just looked at as something only for kids. Okay, okay, there kinda still are, but who as a adult now, not love all the superhero movies out from the comics we read as a kid? I am going to talk about both movies and my opinion from what we have seen so far in the trailers.

   Here we go....

IT'S A BIRD, IT'S A PLANE, IT'S...HYPERION?

   The latest episode of Disney's XD Avengers Assemble aired today.  The seventh episode of the new series is called Hyperion. This was my first experience with Hyperion even though I a  huge Marvel fan. So I was a little shocked at this character and his similarities to his powers and look to two DC Comic characters. He looked like Captain Marvel, cape to one side and same color scheme, with Superman's powers.

   The show starts off with the Avengers trying to stop a bunch of meteors from destroying the city. There where all doing pretty well until one huge meteor dubbed a "Earth-Eater" for its size, which would be enough to kill everything on the planet. Hulk and Thor use all of there might to try and break it apart and Iron Man tries to slow it down. Iron Man realizing that they where not going to be able to stop it in time starts saying his goodbyes to his teammates. Just then the whole meteor is blown into tiny cubes. As the Avengers regroup and try to figure out what happen, the see Hyperion standing about some of the cubes. He gives a wave and a wink and flies off.

GREATEST EPISODE OF YOUNG JUSTICE....EPISODE 16 "FAILSAFE"

   In writing a review on the new RPG video game Young Justice: Legacy that comes out in 2013, it really got me thinking about my favorite episode of the cartoon, Failsafe. This episode might be one of my favorite cartoon episodes ever. The writers really need credit for this one. I watched Failsafe over and over because it was not only a great episode, but it was a trip. At the end you were like,"Wait, WHAT?!" You connect with the characters.
   So the show starts up with the Young Justice team along side Red Tornado in Mount Justice watching a unknown alien ship heading towards Earth. The ship is met by Superman, Green Lantern, Caption Atom, Martian Manhunter, Caption Marvel, and Batman. Green Lantern tells the alien ship to identify themselves and there business. Next thing you see is a big bright light come out of the ship vaporizing Green Lantern. The rest of the team go into attack mode, all for not as they too get vaporized. Knowing that the team needs him, Red Tornado tells the Young Justice team to stay put for now, and takes off to help the rest of the League.

DC COMIC'S CARTOON TO BECOME NEW RPG.....YOUNG JUSTICE: LEGACY

  Young Justice is a DC Comic's cartoon that airs on cartoon network. And I personally love this cartoon. As I said before, I am more a Marvel guy, but DC has been really good about making shows and comics about sidekicks. Teen Titans, although very different style from Young Justice, was another great sidekick cartoon from DC that does not focus on the big name superheros, and help you get to know more about our heroes of tomorrow. Episode 16 of Young Justice called Failsafe was a awesome episode that was a major trip and had me watching it over and over.
