We are just having fun reviewing and discussing comic books, graphic novels, manga, anime/animation, music and movies that we have recently read, listened to or watched.
With talks of Wonder Woman getting a movie again, hopefully it will happen, Chris Pine has been cast as Steve Trevor, according to The Wrap. The picture above gives a comparison of Pine with one comic book version of Trevor. For me that casting works. Pine will play opposite Gail Godot’s Wonder Woman and the director assigned to the film is Patty Jenkins.
Growing up my parents always picked up the DC Comics for me. So I’m more of a DC guy instead of a Marvel guy even though I love Marvel as well. But man I love see the small screen and big screen coming to life with what to me are my heroes. So you knew I couldn’t let the weekend come without posting the trailer to the new Batman v. Superman: Dawn of Justice trailer that debuted at ComicCon. All I can say is it looks good. Seems to pick up within the Man of Steel battle, with Bruce Wayne present in Metropolis at the time. So that was a nice tie-in. Plus Batman has always been about protecting the people even to include other heroes that might turn. Check out Justice League: Tower of Babel for this concept. Thanks to Warner Bros. for streaming this on the YouTube channel for us to share with everyone – Richard:
Check out the Flash trailer/highlight reel from SDCC. The CW and DC are just have a good time right now with interesting, fun shows. Thanks to Warner Bros. for streaming this on their YouTube channel:
Warner Bros. Animation announced that the next three DC Comics animated features. They will be Batman: Bad Blood, Justice League vs. Titans, and Batman: The Killing Joke. The Killing Joke is a very dark story so that is an interesting choice and how they will approach the story. Hopefully they will go a little beyond the story to show that Barbara Gordon doesn’t descend into a dark depression, but works her way through the incident that has changed her life.
Marvel has evidently gotten to big and is pulling a DC move with the merging of worlds in the 2015 Secret Wars titles. Sounds like what DC had to do with their Infinite Crisis story and Convergence story. Even Star Wars had to do something like this with it’s Expanded Universe that was axed and continuity started again. Check out the trailer for the Battleworld segment of the Secret Wars through Marvel’s YouTube channel:
CBS doesn’t want to be out done. They have released a trailer for their upcoming Supergirl series. The trailer is long but it not bad. This actually looks to be interesting and fun. So far I have enjoyed what DC Comics has done with their television entries. Check out the trailer from CBS’ YouTube channel:
Check it out the first trailer for DC’s Legends of Tomorrow television series, from CW Television Network’s YouTube channel. Side note to Michelle, it has Firestorm in it. Firestorm is one of her favorite characters. Anyway it looks like Legends of Tomorrow might be pretty good.
Are you ready for the collected versions of DC Comics Convergence story. This is one I don’t know if I’m going to love personally or not, and I’m a DC fan. Some of the images of new costumes has me a little worried. Especially my main man Batman. Oh well check out this video where Dan Didio has to explain the story (when you have to explain it, that makes me worry to) on CBR Trailers YouTube channel:
