Updates
Hello Media Geeks, I am writing to inform you about the revitalization of one of your favorite blogs. I have been away, vacationing in Virginia, going under several dental surgeries, plus I began my senior year at Bard. But now that things have calmed down, I would like to announce that I will be bringing you all new content. Tonight, the Walking Dead returns for its fourth season and you can expect a review from me sometime tomorrow, after I watch it for the second time of course. And don't worry it won't stop there, I got you covered every week. You can also expect to see weekly reviews of the CW's Arrow. Finally, I have a few guest writers, who will deliver to you game reviews on a regular basis. Oh, and I forgot one thing, the epic return of News Snapshots. So check in regularly for all the new content, thanks for reading and having patience. Is there anything specific you would like to see covered on this blog? If so leave a comment down below.

News Snapshot
Sorry for the late News Snapshot, I had bad Intel about a
story that was supposed to come out yesterday, so I wanted to wait before
releasing this week’s News Snapshot. So here we go:
·
Christian Bale has confirmed that he will not
return for the role of Batman in the new DCCU. In fact, he hasn’t even been
approached by Warner Bros. for the role. Is this a loss for the DCCU or are you
looking forward to having a new Batman on screen?

· Don Mattrick has left Microsoft! Now there are
rumors flying around that he was fired, but regardless he is no longer the
President of Entertainment for Microsoft. He will now serve as the CEO of Zynga.
I know I’m happy about his departure because of all the blunders he has caused
Microsoft with the Xbox One, but are you?
·
A Black Panther movie is in the works, or at
least it should be as Marvel’s Stan Lee has dropped hints about the movie being
in the development process.
·
Guillermo Del Toro wants his Justice League Dark
film, titled Dark Universe, to fit in the same universe as Man of Steel. If
that’s the case, than there will be two Justice League films in the same cinematic
universe set to release within the next few years. And with Justice League and
Justice Dark clawing their way out of development hell, a DC fanboy such as
myself, could only hope that Warner Bros. will give us a Justice League of
America film as well, so that we could eventual have a Trinity Wars crossover
movie event.
·
Speaking of DC’s Trinity War event, Trinity of
Sin: Pandora, a new DC title, was released last week and is a must read if you
are the slightest bit interested in DC’s big summer crossover event.

below, and thank you for your patience.

News Snapshot
I have to apologize for my lack of posts this week, I have
been extremely busy, but I do have several posts in the drafting stage so
lookout for them soon. And now here is this week’s News Snapshot:
·
There were rumors floating around
about Doomsday joining the cast of Man of Steel 2, but has that idea been
dropped already? Snyder has revealed that the main antagonist of MOS2 will in
fact be Lex Luthor, with his choice of actor being Mark Strong. Does this mean
that Doomsday will not show up in MOS2, or will the movie have more than one
villain? Also who do you think should play Lex Luther?
·
Speaking of casting for movies, it appears as
though that Marvel has hired Armie hammer and he is rumored to be in the
running for Ant-Man, as he was seen on the Captain America: the Winter Soldier
set. However, Marvel Studios has denied this rumor. Hmm, just like they claimed
Thanos wouldn’t show in the post credits of the Avengers. What do you think?
And if he isn’t going to play Ant-Man, who is he going to bring to the Marvel
Cinematic Universe?
·
Another actor who is in talks to play a superhero
for Marvel studios is Vin Diesel. But who will he play? Many believe that he
will portray Black Panther, Luke Cage, Vision or even Thanos. Who do you want
to see Vin Diesel depict?
·
Green Goblin, Vulture and Black Cat are all rumored
to be in the Amazing Spider-Man 2? Mr. Garfield will have to put in some work
in this film if that is the case. Should this movie have five potential
villains or do you think that these roles will all be cameos?
·
Nintendo has stated that Super Smash Bros. will
not have all of the characters that were playable in Brawl due to release date
constraints. It has been speculated by many fans that Ike, Toon Link, and
Lucario will all bite the dust. While some people believe each of those
characters are just going to swapped out for characters from their respective
games, as Nintendo has done in the past, others believe that those roles are
going to be dropped altogether.
·
It looks like Brad Pitts hard work has paid off
as World War Z is a considered a success among both fans and critics alike. It
has been announced that the sequel is now in works by paramount studios.
·
It looks as though that the PS4 will hit shelves
before the Xbox One. A photo has been leaked revealing that the PS4 will be on
shelves in Europe starting on November 13th. This means that it will most definitely be released;
earlier in the States as Sony has always released their PlayStations in the U.S.
first.
·
Finally, Greg Pak’s Batman/Superman book has
been released this week with issue#1. If you’re a fan of either one of these
characters you must check this out because this book seems promising. The
artwork is on the same level as the writing as Jae Lee has given us one of the
most unique and visually interesting methods of storytelling I have seen to
date.
So that’s this week’s News Snapshot, check in next week for
some interesting stories. Like any of the stories I covered today? I am missing
an important development? Leave your comments down below.
