Superman: Man of Tomorrow trailer

Superman, the icon and first modern day superhero, is having his origin retold again- this time focusing more on the time before becoming Superman rather than going all the way back to Krypton. I like that we get action from Lobo and Parasite rather than the usual top Sup baddies; Martian Manhunter is always a welcomed presence as well. It looks like a solid origin movie with good animation. May the gaming gods bring you glory.

Marvel’s Avengers game trailer 2

So I guess the organization AIM and inevitably MODOK  are the main antagonists of the Avengers game? While I like MODOK and I’m glad they aren’t reusing Loki, Ultron, or Thanos. I really like what I’ve seen of Kamela Khan as Ms Marvel but I’m just still not feeling it overall. I maybe burned out after following the MCU since its inception. I hope for the best. May the gaming gods bring you glory.

Snowpiercer

You know those movies your friends tell you have to watch and you almost never do? I know many times you say you will but never do, but sometimes you get the hype? I got it with John Wick and I get it now with Snowpiercer too.

Man is nearly extinct 18 years after the world has become a frozen wasteland. The last of mankind lives upon a train called a Snowpiercer, designed to sustain itself off of the snow and ice. On this ark, every car has a function, and every passenger’s life is dictated by there ticket. The furthest car in the back is the most beaten down of slums while the front most car is the dwelling of the rich, oppressing the poor for their needs. Curtis, along with the rest of the back car passengers have had enough and a rebellion is starting, but can the angry and determined fight to the front?

I’m going to start by say I love this movie and it’s equal measure deep, badass, and brutal. Warning: this is a not a movie for people with weak stomachs or sensibilities. The cast is great, Chris Evans steals the show but Tilda Swinton, Octavia Spencer, and John Hurt are also fantastic. While the setting is a train, the movie never gets dull to look at and it uses it’s setting and premise to the fullest- a feat many movies rarely achieve. The action scenes are unique and memorable. The score adds a lot of depth to the film and is well placed. At 2 hours, the movie moves really well and I was heavily invested the whole time.  In the end, I surprisingly loved this movie and I highly recommend it. May the gaming gods bring you glory.

Crash 4: Its about Time reveal trailer

I’m so damn happy to see this and to say it looks faithful as hell to the originals. I hope we see more platforming games return next console gen. The graphics are beautiful and the colors are a sight for sore eyes in these dreary days. I can’t wait. May the gaming gods bring you glory.

Kena: Bridge of Spirits reveal trailer

I love the cute little puff ball things; I might be the deranged writer of the strange and everything but damn they are adorable. The game looks fascinating and colorful. I love the villain design. This game looks like a breath of fresh air in a dark market. May the gaming gods bring you glory.

Deathstroke: Knights and Dragons reveal trailer

I’m glad Slade gets some limelight on his own, rather than being a villain in Teen Titans or Arrow. I’m even more excited that it’s R rated so this epic DC anti-hero can stretch and be himself on screen. I can’t wait to see the final result. May the gaming gods bring you glory.
