As if we needed another reason to hate DC more, there are rumors of plans of a Watchmen prequel. Names attached to the project are Dave Gibbons, John Higgins, Darwyn Cooke, JMS, JG Jones, Andy Kubert and more. Honestly, even though Watchmen is DC’s property and they can do the fuck whatever they want with it, this is just so wrong on so many levels. You don’t need a prequel to the single greatest graphic novel of all time. Everything was explained clearly in the beginning of the comic, and we don’t need to know what happens. Not even if it means Darwyn Cooke wrote the script. No. DC, just stop it already. I admit, the reboot, as unnecessary as it is, worked for a bit, but it doesn’t mean you can just go and and raping all your properties. Because seriously, if there’s anything nobody should touch, it’s Watchmen.

Finally – the trailer for the much-anticipated Avengers movie is out! And it looks absolutely amazing. Don’t take my word for it, watch it yourself!

Oh god, so many awesome moments. My favorite, of course, was Steve Rogers and Tony Stark snarking at each other. Will this movie be awesome or will it be awesome?

The Avengers is directed by Joss Whedon and starring Chris Hemsworth as Thor, Scarlett Johansson as the Black Widow, Chris Evans as Captain America, Jeremy Renner as Hawkeye, Robert Downey Jr. as Iron Man, Cobie Smulders (HNNNGGH) as Maria Hill, Samuel L. Jackson as Nick Fury, and Mark Ruffalo as Bruce Banner.

I tried reading Daredevil before, during Ed Brubaker’s run on everyone’s favorite blind swashbuckling superhero. Brubaker at the time was my favorite writer, and his now-classic Death of Captain America storyline convinced me that Daredevil’s the next book I should follow. I admit that I haven’t read too much Daredevil before, except for Jeph Loeb’s Daredevil: Yellow (back when nobody considered Loeb to be a hack) and Frank Miller’s Man Without Fear. I haven’t read Born Again simply because I can’t find a copy anywhere. Anyway, I found Brubaker and Miller’s work on the character brilliant, but it never really connected with me. Daredevil was far from my favorite character, and I honestly won’t be bothered to follow the title. Especially when you see that the comic becomes progressively depressing to read. There’s something about making a character’s life even shittier than Spider-Man’s that gets to me. (continue reading…)

So here’s a set picture of Russell Crowe as Jor-El in the latest Superman film, The Man of Steel. I dunno, he reminds me of a hobo. I wonder why.

Seriously, what the fuck is he fucking wearing? Was he drunk and did he stole one costume off the Thor set? Explain this monstrosity, Zack Snyder. EXPLAIN!

Remember the last time Anne Hathaway’s pictures as Catwoman were leaked? I was pretty much disappointed because it was just a girl in a leather outfit riding a bike. There was nothing special about those pictures, really. I am ever so glad to see new The Dark Knight Rises set pictures of Anne Hathaway dressed up as Catwoman – and this time she has the mask and cat ears!

If you’re wondering why the cat ears look stupid, I’m guessing those are actually the goggles we saw in the first set of pictures before, and they’re just sitting on her head.

Now excuse me, because I’ll be in my bunk.

What do you guys think?
