Ongoing: Grayson #1

Ongoing: Grayson #1

From a very early age, I was fascinated with the Robin character in the Batman universe. Not just with the comics, but with the '66 television series, the animated series, and continuing on into Teen Titans and Nightwing. He eventually would break away from Batman to be his own hero. He recognized that he would forever be in Bruce's shadow so he left Gotham and became a vision of hope for a new city that needed a savior.

Characterization of Women in Comics

The topic came up a few weeks ago on Twitter with a few people. Its an ongoing concern for ladies that are fans of comic books, and just women in general.

How are they dressed? How realistic do they appear? Should they appear realistic?

'Jurassic World' Anticipation

I can remember vividly, seeing the first Jurassic Park film twenty years ago. It was really the first time I saw a film that I had previously read the novel first. I loved Michael Crichton's book and it really got me to read more of his work which in turn, really got me interested in science fiction and in science. The film, however, captured my imagination in a way I wasn't expecting. The way it was shot, the special effects mixed with practical effects and the music made me believe this park could be real. The suspense, the pacing, the acting, the humor, the drama, all of it made for a great film that's stuck with me ever since.

New Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Trailer

A lot has already been said about the new Ninja Turtles movie that's set for release on August 8th. A lot of people hate the way the turtles look for this Michael Bay film, personally I'm not a fan but trying to remain optimistic. In this latest trailer, we get a bigger glimpse into the storyline and plot for the film, and it does give me some hope that it will be more entertaining than Transformers was.

'The Batman' Solo Film in 2019?

Since he was cast as Batman/Bruce Wayne for what was originally thought of as the sequel to Man of Steel (but has since become a stand alone film titled Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice.) we've been curious as to when Ben Affleck would get his solo film as the Dark Knight. Rumor has it (latino-review.com) that we'll be seeing him return (after a stint in 'Justice League' in May of 2017) to the cape and cowl in 2019 to begin the new franchise of Bat films.
