Well, I’d say its a huge improvement over Slenderman preview but I’m not entirely convinced. Yes, the atmosphere has improved and the Slender Man doesn’t look too bad and I like the way the lore was used. I’d seriously laugh if they try to plug the games though. A big problem I have is that I get too much of a Ring vibe from it and the fact it’s PG-13, which means there’s going to be a lot of teen pandering and jump scares. In the end, I’d RedBox it but that’s about as far as I’m willing to go. May the gaming gods bring you glory.

Iron Fist season 2 trailer
Iron Fist: the hiccup show in Netflix’s line of Marvel shows. Whether it’s the white wash controversy over the casting of the titular hero or the dull ratings as compared to shows like Daredevil and Jessica Jones, Iron Fist just couldn’t seem to catch a break. We have season 2 surprisingly. I think think it looks meh, but only reading Iron Fist: the Living Weapon: Rage I can’t say I’m an avid fan of the comic to begin with. I do appreciate the classic bandanna in the trailer as I’m sure fans will. May the gaming gods bring you glory.
The Purge-USA event trailer
I’m divided as hell on whether making The Purge into a network show is a good idea or not. Yes, you can’t get as graphic with it on network TV as you could as a movie but to be fair, I never felt the movies went as overboard as they could. I think having the format of a show could give us potentially some really good stories on Purge night. I’m fairly curious how this will turn out. May the gaming gods bring you glory.
Star Wars: The Clones Wars, final season trailer
One of the biggest surprises of SDCC was the trailer for the return and proper finale of Star Wars: the Clone Wars. I’ve watched the first 2 seasons and a chunk of the 3rd. I do prefer the original Star Wars: the Clone Wars (05) more but I’d be lying if I didn’t give credit to the canon show. The season 7 trailer I admit has a huge upgrade in animation and I like the little touches in there wardrobes that help it feel on the brink of Episode 3. I’m glad it can get a proper end now. May the gaming gods bring you glory.
Walking Dead season 9 trailer
Confession time: I’m not a fan of the Walking Dead. I liked the first few books but I never saw the hype. I think the trailer looks good but like one of my biggest problems with the series is there, it looks like its going to end but keeps going. Still, if you’re a fan this looks like it’ll be a cool season. May the gaming gods bring you glory.
Deadly Class trailer
One of the best trailers to hit SDCC this year was Deadly Class, based on the graphic novel and produced by the Russo Brothers, a show about teens who go to an academy to learn how to be pro assassins. I’d definitely watch it, it looks entertaining and has some dark comedy. I’ll be keeping an eye out and may the gaming gods bring you glory.
Legends of Tomorrow season 4 trailer
Legends was a show I pretty desperately wanted to get into. From the most of season 1 I saw, I felt it was hit or miss. I’m glad most of the characters have stayed and I’m glad we got Constantine in this season as well as returning heroes like Canary, Atom, Firestorm, and Heatwave. May the gaming gods bring you glory.
Alita Battle Angel
So I’m really wondering where the hell the hype is for this movie. Seriously, every trailer I see for this, I think it looks stunning and the anime/ CGI/ art style is really well done. The action looks kick ass and there’s heavy star power behind the camera. So where’s the hype? I’m pretty pumped for this after the trailers I’ve seen. May the gaming gods bring you glory.
Black Lightning season 2 trailer
I was intrigued by the show when it first came out, the idea of a retired superhero coming back out wasn’t a bad idea for the CW’s lineup of DC heroes. I haven’t heard much about the show but season 2 looks promising as a family drama. The effects aren’t bad for TV either. May the gaming gods bring you glory.
Supergirl season 4 trailer
I have to admit I haven’t watched more than a episode or 2 during lunch breaks at my non- Saviorgaming job so as for for what the hell is going on, that’s beyond me. What I can say is because of Injustice 2 (2nd opinion) I do want to learn a bit more about Superman’s cousin and I really like the opening narration to the trailer. I do plan on getting into it but for now it looks like fans of the series won’t be disappointed. May the gaming gods bring you glory.
