‘Spider-Man: Homecoming’ Reveals Trailer And Villain Rumors

Comic-Con 2016 was a busy event for Marvel Studios. On top of releasing new movie information on Doctor Strange, Black Panther, and Thor: Ragnarok, they also took the time to give everyone’s favorite wall crawler a moment to shine.

They started by releasing the new trailer for Spider-Man: Homecoming. Unfortunately, it has been kept under wraps so there will be a small delay for everyone who wasn’t at the panel to witness it. Reports from the panel said Director Jon Watts described the film as:

“a straight-up high school movie, about a 15-year old kid. We know what it’s like to be a billionaire playboy inventor. We learned what it’s like to be an alien God… We’re going to learn what it’s like to be kid in 10th grade going through puberty.”

The convention wasn’t done with Spider-Man as a rumor was leaked at another panel. At the Diamond Select panel, the toy company let it slip they were already working on figures for the film and let three names slip out, Shocker, Tinkerer, and the Vulture. The Vulture had already been rumored to be the key villain in the film but this potential appearance of the Tinkerer and Shocker came out of nowhere. Hopefully these rumors will be found truthful later on. Let’s also hope the movie doesn’t get overloaded with villains like the last Spider-Man film was. With any luck it will just turn out the Tinkerer won’t actually fight but will just supply the technology for The Vulture and Shocker to commit crimes with. Further details can be seen in the video below.

Are you eager to see the new trailer? Does the idea of three villains thrill you? Leave a comment below and stay tuned to Monkeys Fighting Robots for all the Spider-Man: Homecoming and Comic-Con news you can handle.

Ray Wise Talks Twin Peaks 2017 Revival

Twin Peaks
Are you ready to return to the town where nothing is what it seems?

At San-Diego Comic Con, Ray Wise reveals he will be starring in David Lynch’s Twin Peaks revival.

According to Bloody-Disgusting, the actor made the announcement during the panel for Batman: The Killing Joke. He will reprise his role of Leland Palmer, the father of teenager Laura Palmer, whose murder haunts the town of Twin Peaks.

As previously confirmed, Lynch will direct all 18 episodes of the revival. Previously, the showrunner’s involvement was in doubt in 2015.

Little is known of the revival’s plot, but it will be set twenty-five years after the original show. Since the series ended with Laura Palmer promising to return in twenty-five years, the timing seems appropriate.

Twin Peaks

At the end of Twin Peaks, Laura Palmer made the cryptic remark, “I’ll see you in twenty-five years.” How prophetic.

Wise joins former co-stars Kyle MacLachlan, Sheryl Lee, David Duchovny, Miguel Ferrer, Russ Tamblyn, Richard Beymer and Harry Dean Stanton. The show’s ensemble will also star Jim Belushi, Monica Belluci, Michael Cera, Ashley Judd, Tim Roth, Tom Sizemore and Naomi Watts.

In 1990, Twin Peaks made its debut to stellar ratings and critical acclaim. After the ABC network made Lynch reveal Laura’s killer, the show ended in 1991. A 1992 film, Twin Peaks: Fire Walk With Me, was subject to poor box office returns and reviews.

The revival is set to air on Showtime in summer 2017.

Brew Review: Rubicon Brewing Company’s First Contact Pale Ale

By

Monkeys Fighting Robots

Like a lot of people growing up in Northern California in the 90s, my first exposure to craft beer was a little elixir known as Sierra Nevada Pale Ale. Unlike a lot of people in Northern California… I hated it. I still don’t like it. In fact, I disliked it so much it turned me off completely from Pale Ales.

Flash forward a few years and I finally met a Pale Ale I actually liked: Rubicon Brewing Company‘s Monkey Knife Fight. Aside from the great name, it was just really good. So when Rubicon released a new Pale Ale called First Contact I had to give it a try. It also seemed fitting to try it the same weekend the new Star Trek movie hit theaters.

AROMA

The first thing you notice about this beer is just how good it smells. There is a hoppy aroma to it, but it’s more floral than your traditional hop- filled brew. Really, one of the best smelling beers I’ve had in a while.

APPEARANCE

The label is kitschy complete with an alien made out of hops. It might make it hard to take the beer seriously, which would be too bad. On the flip side, it did stand out from the other labels on the shelf so I guess it did its job.

The beer itself is a rich, golden, caramel color with a slight head.

FLAVOR

Smooth. That’s the word that came to mind during my first sip. I always felt like Sierra Nevada Pale Ale tasted skunky and bitter. First Contact was neither of those things.

The great aroma translated into a Pale Ale had a really nice flavor. While it doesn’t have the hoppy punch of Monkey Knife Fight, First Contact is a nice alternative Pale Ale in Rubicon’s beer arsenal.

‘BoJack Horseman’ Renewed For Season Four

It was only yesterday when Netflix’s acclaimed animated series BoJack Horseman returned for its third season, but the streaming site doesn’t like to waste time. It was announced that the binge-friendly program will return a fourth season, presumably to air sometime next year. Prepare the drinks!

The news came from the character’s official Twitter page, stating simply that “guys. season 4… is happening!” They also addressed his fans with some noteworthy hashtags, most notably #ibingedtoohardlastnight. Although show creator Raphael Bob-Waksberg is in higher demand than ever these days, particularly as the new screenwriter behind The Lego Movie Sequel and also the author behind an upcoming short story collection entitled Someone Who Will Love You in All Your Damaged Glory: Bang-Your-Knee, Bust-Your-Heart-Open Love Stories, it looks like he’s not too busy to keep his beloved series going strong. Hopefully that won’t impact the quality of his stellar series, but I don’t see that being the case.

Details are slim at the moment, as they usually are, but it’s safe to assume that this will be another 12-episode season, and that Will Arnett, Alison Brie, Paul F. Tompkins, Aaron Paul and Amy Sedaris will return to the recording booth, along with a boatload of celebrity cameos. I’m still behind on the third season, unfortunately, but I’m told it’s the best one to date — and that’s certainly not an easy feat. I’m planning to check it out sooner than later, however, and this is some very, very encouraging news — especially if the finale is as bleak as some have made it out to be …

Here’s the tweet announcement, via Twitter:
