The Second Trailer for Iron Man 2 is Out

March 8th, 2010 · Movies

Earlier today, during the telecast of the 82nd Oscar Awards, the next trailer for Iron Man 2 was unveiled to the world.

It features the following wonderful bullet points!

  • Mickey Rourke sticking to his dirty/grimy character stereotypes!
  • Don Cheadle blazing guns as War Machine!
  • Scarlett Johansson using what looks like a whirlwind DDT on some poor unsuspecting guard! (Or is that not so poor?)
  • Portable Iron Man armor!
  • Samuel. L. fucking Jackson as Colonel Nick fucking Fury!

The trailer is nothing short of intriguing to say the least (and explosive to say a lot), so it’s pretty safe to say it does its job extremely well. I am looking forward to this movie. With much delight.

Saying it with joy: OBLIGATORY!

OK Go has always been awesome. They just decided to continue their streak with their newest video.

Bonus: Another (older) music video for the same song. Two awesome one-takers in one post!

It’s not how you start, it’s how you finish.

And it’s not where you’re from, it’s where you’re at.

Everybody gets knocked down, how quick are you gonna get up?

Let’s Fight… Like Gentlemen!

February 19th, 2010 · Games

Yesterday, Capcom made it official: Dudley’s back in Super Street Fighter IV.

Dudley vs. T. Hawk

Dudley vs. T. Hawk

Along with Ibuki, Makoto, and the earlier character announcements – Adon, Cody, Dee Jay, Guy, Juri, T. Hawk – that makes for a total of nine new World Warriors. Well, ten if you include Hakan, who hasn’t been confirmed yet, but everyone knows he exists already anyway. Add to that the fact that SFIV had 25 characters already (and all of them usable in one way or another – even Dan), this is shaping up to be a real battle royale.

I’ll say it now so it’s clear: while I enjoyed maining Balrog in SFIV, I will main Dudley in SSFIV, no matter how difficult he will be to use.

Game is slated to come out April 27, 2010.

Nope, I’m not excited at all.

UPDATE: Hakan’s been confirmed, so that’s ten new World Warriors.

The Last Airbender

February 17th, 2010 · Movies

When I saw the first teaser for this movie, I wasn’t sure whether I wanted to go see it, especially since M. Night Shyamalan has lately been focused on making weird movies with plots I can’t understand.

But after seeing the new trailer… wow.

Coming July 2!

UPDATE: The whole whitewashing issue has only recently been brought to my attention by my friends. I haven’t really heard about this problem before I watched this specific trailer, but that points more to my (past) ignorance of the whole situation rather than the gravity of it.

Honestly though, even though I probably should be bothered, given that the world of Avatar is decidedly Asian (or Chinese to be specific), I’m not. Think what you will of that. I still plan on watching the movie when it comes out.
