DC Comics Artist Robson Rocha Has Passed Away

 

High ground!
Seriously, though, Anakin's pride was his downfall. Obi-Wan fought him to a stalemate, more or less, and Anakin thought he could best him from a very disadvantageous position. Obi-Wan might not have been as good or powerful as Anakin, but Anakin negated those advantages with a boneheaded move. He thought he could get away with it, and couldn't, just like he thought he could control the dark side of the Force. That scene is a metaphor for his bigger downfall.

 

The Bat in the Sun crew made this Batman short film, "Dying is Easy." It's a fan film, but with some legit actors. I thought it was fun, so I figured I'd share.

For those who aren't familiar with Bat in the Sun, they produced Super Power Beat Down, a series of YouTube videos pitting superheroes and villains against one another in one-on-one and two-on-two live-action fights, many of them involving members of the Bat family. For example, they had Batman vs. Darth Vader, Wolverine vs. Wonder Woman, and Deadpool vs. Deathstroke. The last one, Killmonger vs. Flashpoint Batman, was about a year ago.

 

I enjoyed that, thanks. Pretty good performance by the Joker.

 

That was Aaron Schoenke, who also wrote and directed the short. He has played the Joker in some of their other stuff. He does a good job. I see they did a longer short film two years ago, Batman: City of Scars. I started it, but don't have time for the whole thing now.

Kevin Smith's Masters of the Universe Audience Rating Is Being Review-Bombed

 

Free Guy looks amazing.

That is all.

 

I liked the new show. I'm pretty sure Prince Adam/He-Man will play a larger role in the second part. This was more "Masters of the Universe" than He-Man, which I was fine with.

 

Jroyal, no disrespect as I am still immersed in way way too many things from my childhood,
but I am not that far gone to give a damn or even to think meaningfully about He-Man.

I just thought it was funny because this guy just can't take a lick of criticism, and it is always entertaining to watch.

 

I know they may tie this to MCU Spider-Man at some point, but they haven't done so yet, so let's leave it here. It also looks damn good.

 

They aren't exactly holding back the spoilers from the ads for Free Guy. Then again, does anybody really care if that one gets spoiled?
