“Someday” Cover Animated Video

This animated video, for “Someday”, that was added to  “DjBestOfRmxSerbia” YouTube channel is a great animated video and fits the single perfectly.  Of course “Someday” is performed by Michael Buble and Meghan Trainor and has a light hearted bubbly sound that is infectious.  The music video is just as infectious.  The CGI is spot on and the story that you follow is fun to watch as you listen.  So take a moment and enjoy Michael Buble and Meghan Trainor’s “Someday” from “DjBestOfRmxSerbia’s” YouTube channel – Richard:

Alita: Battle Angel Trailer

Alita: Battle Angel is getting a little flack about Alita having larger than normal eyes.  For me this aspect fits perfectly with this movie.  It is an adaptation of Yukito Kishiro’s manga titled Gunnm so the larger than normal eyes fit perfectly.  Also Alita is a cyborg so she is a construct that was designed and the designer decided what her look was going to be.  I enjoyed the larger eyes and the trailer and am looking forward to this movie.  Check out the trailer here through MoiveClips Trailers YouTube channel:

Constantine: City of Demons Trailer

Warner Bros. Animation and DC Comics is giving us another “R” rated animated movie.  I’m glad to see that the North American market with DC are making inroads into a mature market with animation.  Constantine: City of Demons continues DC’s venture into mature animation.  The animation looks nice and the story is what you would expect in a Constantine story.  Can’t wait to see this movie and I definitely want to see additional mature animated movies or shows pop up with not just DC, but other companies as well.  I don’t want it done just to do it, but only if the story fits the mature rating.  Here’s the trailer to Constantine: City of Demons from DC’s YouTube channel:

Nisekoi AMV

Time for a little fun.  We have an AMV for everyone to enjoy from 2015.  This takes scenes from Nisekoi and weaves them to the single “That Girl” from All Time Low.  If you have read the manga or seen the anime then you will know that this AMV fits perfectly with the single.  The AMV is done by DiabyX and the AMV won some awards at the 2015 AnimeFest.  So thanks to DiabyX for producing a great AMV and sharing it with everyone on their YouTube channel – Richard:
