Weekend Open Bar: You Will Be Happy
It’s been a moment since I crept out from under the shadows and issued forth a Weekend Open Bar, huh? For that, I apologize. How the fuck are you doing, friends? Apologies for the tardiness, and all that happy horse shit. You know how it goes, or maybe you don’t know how it goes.
But, when the MalaiseVapors got your synapses in their claws, it’s hard to fight back.
But, I’m here now. The MalaiseVapors beat back, another row in the books. They’re gone, but not forgotten. They’re gone, but they’ll return. They always return, to dance the Dance Macabre.
Warner Bros. wants Michael Bay to direct the ‘Lobo’ movie and this is perfect
Maybe it’s the longer days contributing some solar-powered optimism, maybe it’s my latent love for portions of Michael Bay’s oeuvre. But, I’m down for the dude directing a Lobo movie. Both of them are a monument to excessivism and mindless violence. Both of them are meat-head dumb asses. And together? They may damn well be unstoppable.
Joaquin Phoenix in talks to play The Joker in the character’s origin story movie
Joaquin Phoenix as The Joker? I can support this casting. But, I ain’t getting my hopes up for the casting, or the movie. Phoenix was supposed to be Doctor Strange, but then bailed the fuck out. Not only that, but, man. Getting excited for a DCU movie at this point feels like an exercise in false hope.
‘Venom’ Trailer: Well, I hope Sony is playing the long game with this movie
Hey! It’s the Venom trailer! Without Venom! The majority of people I’ve talked to about the Venom trailer are shrugging at best. I can get not wanting to give an enormous glimpse at the titular symbiote in the first trailer, but, man. This trailer a resounding yawn.
‘Jessica Jones’ Season 2 Trailer: You’re A Ticking Timebomb
Hey! A trailer for Jessica Jones‘ second season! Yet another reminder that I need to watch the first season.
‘Deadpool 2’ Trailer: More Ultraviolent Meta Merriment!
I’ve been waiting for this trailer for a good goddamn while, my dudes. And, it doesn’t disappoint in the the fucking slightest. We got some meta shots at Justice League, a weird self-referential look at Cable’s arm, and a tease of David Leitch’s brand of action. Let’s go!
‘Game of Thrones’ creators writing and producing new series of ‘Star Wars’ movies
Wait, what? The dudes behind Game of Thrones are going to be writing and producing a completely new series of Star Wars films. I can dig this, dig this so hard.
Report: ‘Call of Duty: Black Ops 4’ is dropping this year but the zeitgeist has moved on
It’s weird. Call of Duty still sells really fucking well. But, no one gives a fuck about it compared to PUBG and Fornite. Additionally, it sells really fucking well, but not nearly as much as it used to. Thus, it is sort of this franchise that is both completely irrelevant, and still a (diminishing) cash cow.
‘Avengers: Infinity War’ Super Bowl TV Spot: It’s All Been Leading To This
This movie and its sequel are going to fuck me up so bad, and I cannot fucking wait.
‘Solo: A Star Wars Story’ Trailer: Everything Seems Cool, Except Han Himself
The first full trailer for Solo: A Star Wars Story has dropped, and well. I actually enjoyed it! In fact, I actually enjoyed it despite the fact that Solo himself seems leadened and uncharismatic as fuck. Aesthetically, it’s gorgeous. Every actor except Solo and Mother of Wooden Dragons seem dope, and the trailer itself was bumping.
