Villains?!?!?!?

Posted in The Tube, Weapons of Mass Enjoyment at 10:34 pm by earl


At the end of the Volume Finale of Generations-Powerless, which I will rundown in entirety sometime soon, it was revealed that the name of Volume 3 is called Villains, not Exodus, as both Wikipedia and The Post Show declared. This brief teaser showed Sylar in an alley after getting an ampule of Claire’s blood. He injected himself with it, and was able to levitate an empty can of spinach to himself, immediately saying the now classic quote, “I’m back.” Volume 3 looks to be a huge Volume whenever the writer’s stop striking.

Bee Movie

Posted in Movies at 10:08 am by earl


(Grade: B-) Jerry Seinfeld’s first outing since Seinfeld came in the form of Bee Movie, a quirky animated film about a Bee suing the human race for them stealing their honey and selling it on the market, however I feel as if jerry Seinfeld could have done better. There were a few really clever and funny jokes, however some just kinda felt cheap. This movie really should just appeal to children. If you have a child that wanted to go see this movie, go ahead and let them, they’ll enjoy it. Bee Movie provides an extremely solid child’s movie, but if you’re an adult looking for smart animated movie that’s the next brain child of Jerry Seinfeld, look elsewhere.
