Monday Morning Commute: It’s Only For Forever!
Hello SlimeLords, you slithering salacious rot-souls. Clamber into my compartment aboard the Space-Ship Omega and lend me your ocular-meat. I’m going to describe to you the various things I’m looking forward to this week. What is on my mind. What is on your mind! I have telepathy! And caffeine! And telepathy! And a hearty desire to regal your loved ones with falsified tales from your unfortified mouths! Telepathy!
Corey Hawkins (‘Straight Outta Compton’ lead) cast in the ’24’ Reboot
Last summer, Corey Hawkins played Dr. Dre in Straight Outta Compton. Now it appears that his follow-up will be playing the heir to Jack Bauer. At least, spiritually or so.
‘Street Fighter V’ Cinematic Story Trailer: Story Mode coming post launch, for free
Street Fighter V is going to get itself a story mode, but it ain’t coming until after launch. I can’t imagine this is terribly exciting and/or disappointing for fans of the franchise. Is it? Like, those of you who were buying Day One weren’t going to be expecting or wanting a story mode. Were you? I mean, I think it’s a neat addition, especially since it’s going to be free. But is that where it stops, “neat addition”? I don’t know. I’m #casual af when it comes to the series.
Watch: Pokémon 20th Anniversary Super Bowl Commercial
I’m not going to lie. I never got down with Pokemon back in the day. I wrongly poo-poo’d it as “kiddie nonsense”, apparently twenty years ago. At the time I was listening to Megadeth, jerking off compulsively, and playing “real games!” like Twisted Metal or some shit. Now, obviously I do all that still, swapping out Twisted Metal for Fallout 4. But I’m intrigued by Pokemon these days, seeing its allure and OCD-influenced live-ruining potential, and despite having never played the title, this commercial is all sorts of awesome none the less.
Geoff Johns and Ethan Van Sciver tease new DC project in the ‘Rebirth’ series
Today, the talents behind Green Lantern: Rebirth and Flash: Rebirth teased a new…Rebirth series. Say Rebirth again, Ian. Rebirth! Fuck!
New ‘Batman v Superman’ image hints at Darkseid’s presence
A new image from Batman v Superman seems to confirm that Darkseid will be making an appearance in the movie. How many characters can appear in the movie? All the characters can appear in the movie! It’s worth noting though, that the image seems to come during what has been acknowledged as a hallucination/dream sequence/thing of Batman’s. So! It appears it’s a portentous dream-hallucination-thing! Cause like, Darkseid is totally the Justice League movie’s BigBad, right?
Denis Villeneuve’s ‘Blade Runner 2’ starring Gosling and Ford is filming in July
I will watch anything that Denis Villeneuve does. Sicario, Enemy, and Prisoners are my fucking shiiittt!!! So, having him on-board gets me excited for any project, and it *at least* assuages my trepidation about a Blade Runner sequel. A bit.
‘Mighty No. 9’ delayed for a third time until…Spring 2016
Yeah. I don’t know, man. Mighty No. 9 looks like a fun enough game, but all of these delays are making me anxious. The time was supposed to drop February 9, but now it has been delayed to the foreboding, vague, “Spring 2016”. Whelp.
‘Warcraft’ TV Spot: War(craft) is coming, duh
I feel obligated to see this movie, given how much of my life Warcraft sucked up and spit out back in the day. How about you?
