Win the Game Of Thrones Experience of a Lifetime

Leave a comment

Game of Thrones has partnered up with Omaze and (RED) to help in the war against AIDS. A little while ago I wrote about Rick and Morty creators doing the same thing, and it seems the support is spreading to higher and probably more popular shows.

THIS IS AWESOME.

Not only is this a great way to help donate to a great organization, but you could win some really awesome stuff like action figures and signed posters. Check out all the possible prizes on the Omaze website. However, the prize that really takes the cake is of course the Game of Thrones Experience which will let you visit the set in Ireland… AND SIT ON THE IRON THRONE.

New Suicide Squad Statues Are Perfect Sculpts Of DC’s Super Villain Team

Leave a comment

DC Comics have done a great job of marketing their new cinematic universe. What they have done to combat the established Marvel / Disney film brand is to give us a different tone, a darker side of the super-world. The selection of trailers, which all seem to show different elements of the movies, have made it clear they will be a bit more adult than their Marvel counterparts.

With the release of this latest trailer DC and Warner Brothers have added an element of humor to it, while keeping the gritty realism they are going for. And with a kicking Queen tune on full blast it’s hard not to get a kick out of this trailer.   Continue reading New Suicide Squad Statues Are Perfect Sculpts Of DC’s Super Villain Team →

Grant Gustin Says Stop Pitting the Flash Against the Flash

With the upcoming DC movies slated this year, we have been promised standalone feature films from each of the Justice League characters. There have also been some speculations and rumors that we will get a brief viewing of more than the title characters in the Batman VS Superman: Dawn of Justice movie. The Flash has been rumored to be one of those characters.

The cinematic Flash as Barry Allen will be portrayed by Ezra Miller, as opposed to the CW’s extremely popular Flash who is portrayed by Grant Gustin. Some backlash has ensued with the casting of the cinematic Barry Allen, as we have all grown to love and adore Gustin’s take on the character. However, Gustin has taken to twitter to clear the air and try to make the situation as civil as possible by showing his support for Ezra Miller.

We’re now two full weeks into January, and if you haven’t seen Star Wars: The Force Awakens, I have two things to say.  One: DUDE.  How can you have waited so long??? And Two: we’ve kept our mouths shut about spoilers for well over three weeks now and if you get spoiled, it’s not our fault anymore.

That being said, one of the blogs I follow, The Legion of Leia, run by epic geek Jenna Busch, has just managed to do something amazing for geek girls everywhere.
