VGR TRON 2.0: Killer App (Game Boy Advance)


You thought me long finished with the TRON series? (Those were some of my first reviews on my blog!)

Well, not exactly!

The Grid. A digital frontier. I kept dreaming of a world I thought I'd never see. And then, one day...

#MovieNews! Disney's 'Beauty and the Beast' (2017) Official Teaser Trailer

They're even remaking Beauty and the Beast now? Of course, they're remaking it, why am I saying that...



...at least the music's good, right?

#DOOM - "Bill Gates Doom"

I'm actually fairly certain I already posted this here on my blog once or twice on the past, but since I just found it again - here it is once more!

This is a video of Bill Gates announcing the Microsoft port of Doom as well as the arrival of Windows 95! Which marked the turn of games being played via DOS to Windows, a big moment in gaming history. Here's the promo video:

#Recap - X-Men: Apocalypse

Here we are. I came back from watching X-Men: Apocalypse yesterday. I can't believe this 4th X-Men film from Bryan Singer is already the 6th X-Men film since the first film was released in 2000 (9th, counting the Wolverine spinoff movies and Deadpool)


And you know what? I still enjoyed this film! Apocalypse was a far better film than I expected. It was fun. I actually would say the series' never been better as it is today, it's only getting ever closer and more faithful to the actual source material over the years. (WARNING! SPOILERS AHEAD!)

#Randomz - Ten years of saying NOPE to Half-Life 3

Here's an hilarious video compiled by CrowbCat, which has been going around news articles.

It’s already been a decade since fans have been awaiting for a sequel to Half-Life. Here's the various interviews where Gabe Newell's been seen talking about this vaporware of a game...



I love how it started with Episode 3, "to conclude the trilogy!", then morphed to simply Half-Life 3 because it had been too long since the actual episodes. And then at some point he went from "the game is coming up!" to "what game? I'm not talking..".

Haha.

As much as I adore the series, I honestly don't believe we're ever gonna see a continuation in my own lifetime.... HL3 is dead.

Now, where's Portal 3? (What? Valve don't know that number "3"? Just call it Portal: Episode 1 instead!)

Everyone's dead, there's mutants and robots running, an artificial intelligent wants to kill you and it's maybe your fault!

Welcome to System Shock. Now, REMOVE YOURSELF!

There's always a lighthouse, always a man and always a city... We all make choices, but in the end our choices make us.

#DC News! Supergirl Teaser | The CW

CBS didn't want to renew Supergirl, so the (co-owned) CW swept in to bring over Supergirl to their network next season, where she will join the ranks of DC programs such as The Flash, Arrow and Legends of Tomorrow.

To celebrate the arrival of the girl of steel (and tease the upcoming epic 4-way crossover next year!!!!) they released this nice little teaser montage:



"Time for a change"? Hope they bring her over (and SUPERMAN!!) to the DCW universe!!

All we need now is Constantine back as well! (or put him in Legends!!)

#Movie NEWS! GHOSTBUSTERS - Official Trailer #2

There's a new trailer out for the Ghostbusters reboot/remake. And it's looking slightly better now, I think:



I still would have preferred for it to be a proper sequel, but hey at least IDW's comics got me covered on that side.

#Comics NEWS! DC has a new logo! Again!

DC Comics just revealed the new logo they will be sporting on their pages starting with the whole Rebirth event. And all I can say is that it looks kinda retro:


Alright! I'm glad they got rid of the cheesy 2010s "pages turning" logo, it looked too much like something a random graphic designer came up with and not enough a comic book logo. This one actually seems to be a throwback to their silver age 70s classic logo:


But as fun it is to see them go back to that type of logo, I wonder how this one will look like on the big screen. That's right, with Geoff Johns now as the head of their whole entertainment division, this means this logo will also pop up on big feature films, TV shows and cartoons!

Part of me kinda wish they'd gone back to the '76 one, which is easily my favorite, personally.

VGR The Simpsons Hit & Run

#TV News! Phil Lord and Chris Miller's upcoming new show MAKING HISTORY is a time-travel sitcom!

I've been loving everything Phil Lord and Chris Miller lately. They have two upcoming shows scheduled for next TV season.


My most anticipated new series they have lined up is a time-travel sitcom for FOX titled Making History. Here's the trailer:



This one will start in 2017, same as Last Man On Earth season 3.

Speaking of, they also have Son of Zorn also on FOX.


Which I honestly can only summarize as a mix of "Roger Rabbit" with "Masters of the Universe":



Alright. Any time you got Lord and Miller evolved, you know I have to check those out no matter w

#RIP Darwyn Cooke

I just learned one of my favorite comic book artists just died...


RIP Darwyn Cooke.


This year is starting to sound really bad. Not only did we lose David Bowie and Prince already this year, but now Darwyn Cooke passed away from cancer at only 53....


He did a ton of fantastic work I particularly love such as the fantastic DC: The New Frontier and the modern DC Comics The Spirit series which I adored. 


He will be missed.


I'm still shocked, he was so young...


I didn't knew what to do, to celebrate this artist, so I'm just using this post as an excuse to post some of his best works.


If you didn't know the guy, take this occasion to check some of his work, his artwork is really well worth a look!

#Fanmade - Assassin's Creed Trailer // Re-edited with Game's Soundtrack

Alright, some fans - at BinarySunProductions - have re-edited the Michael Fassbender's Assassin's Creed film (or as I like to call it, Fassassin's Creed) with the actual game music. And it's a ton better than the cheesy cliché mainstream rap-music one. Check it out:



ALRIGHT! Now we're talking! I'm finally properly hyped for the film now! Why didn't they do that right away? Even for mainstream audiences this sounds a ton better, more appropriate and more epic!!!

#Animation NEWS! The Red Turtle trailer

Studio Ghibli's not dead! Well, sort of...


The Red Turtle will be a French-Japanese co-production between Wild Bunch studios and Studio Ghibli, a story with no dialogue directed by Michaël Dudok de Wit. Check out this gorgeous trailer:



This looks absolutely stunning! I love the french comics "Bande Dessinée" look they're going for, the art direction is just gorgeous! And the atmosphere is very Ghibli-esque!

Finally, a trailer for the upcoming Assassin’s Creed live action film! And it looks actually pretty decent:



I'm absolutely not sold on the rap music and the robot arm-Animus, but everything else looks fairly AC-ysh.

And it's supposed to be canon with the games! (like the comics!)

#Movie NEWS! YOGA HOSERS trailer

The trailer for Kevin Smith’s new film is finally out!


Following an attempt at leaving directing duties, Kevin Smith had a sort of comeback through the horror genre. Tusk marked the beginning of his "True North trilogy" in 2014. Yoga Hosers is the next "entry" in this standalone anthology series. After appearing in Tusk, these two small town convenience store clerks are in for a crazy adventure...



Johnny Depp's return really makes the film for me, his character was hilarious in Tusk. I hope he works as well here as he did in small dose.

This sounds like a fun silly film, not meant to be taken too seriously, just a silly film, having a good time without all the usual annoyances that come from big budget Hollywood productions.

I can't wait! I also can't wait for Mallrats 2 and Clerks 3...
