In January, Netflix and Dreamworks announced that Guillermo del Toro is working on a new Voltron animated series. Monday afternoon, The Nerdist release the first poster attached to the project.
No release date, plot, or voice actors have been announced.
With the title ‘Legendary Defender’ this could be a reboot with a new group of Space Explorers. Which would make Keith, Sven, Lance, Pidge, Hunk and the Princess legends?
Are you excited for a new Voltron series?
The Gravity Falls Season Finale premieres next week. It’s been a while since the last episode aired, but never fear. Everything viewers need to know for the Season 2 finale will be covered below.
Whether intentional or not, the kids cartoons these days seem to appeal to an older demographic. From Steven Universe, to Adventure Time, and now there’s even news of Weird Al lending his voice in a new Disney XD animated series. These shows have feminist characters, subtle humor, and references that 20-somethings will appreciate. Gravity Falls is another Disney XD animated series made in the same spirit.
When viewers last saw Gravity Falls Dipper, Wendy and Soos went on a weird-defying chase to find Mable. Our favourite sweater wearing, sparkle-loving positive girl is trapped inside of a giant pink bubble. In the previous episode, the trio had finally made it to Mable’s prison on the edge of town. Now it opens with Dipper, Wendy, and Soos finding themselves in Mableland. Yes. Mableland. This place is basically everything viewers love about Mable (80s music, rainbows, sparkles, talking animals, and even Sev’ral Timez) on crack.
The whole episode is about Mabel running away from her problems. Bill Cypher is counting on Mabel’s fear of the summer ending. Of course it’s a part of his plan to exact revenge on the Pines family. The four of them escape Mabel’s prison when Mabel and Dipper have a cheesy sibling lovefest. There’s still uncertainty whether Dipper will stay in Gravity Falls as Uncle Ford’s apprentice, but Mable is willing to let him go.
Meanwhile it’s Weirdmageddon Day 4, and Bill needs to take the horrific doomsday party worldwide. The only problem is that Bill and his crew of creepy demon friends can’t get past the confines of Gravity Falls. In the previous episode, Bill captured and turned Uncle Ford into gold. Since Bill is trapped in Gravity Falls, he talks about bringing Ford back in hopes to escape. Now the Pines twins have some time left to find a way to defeat Bill Cypher before Weirdmageddon spreads. All they have to do is find and free Uncle Ford.
Everyone that’s left is hold up in the Mystery Shack. Maybe Grunkle Stan has some not so terrible ideas on how to get out of this mess.
Arrow‘s co-showrunner Marc Guggenheim, made an interesting comment on his Tumblr during a Q&A about the future Slade Wilson (Deathstroke) in the DC Television Universe.
“The character of Slade Wilson is currently tied up in another DC project,” said Guggenheim.
What is this other project that Guggenheim speaks of? His statement could mean that Warner Bros. has plans for Slade in the DC Cinematic Universe. It wouldn’t be a large stretch of the imagination to see Deathstroke in Suicide Squad. Justice League: Part One could be another point in the cinematic universe for an appearance by Slade. The film is set to come out on November 17, 2017.
One other thought, Warner Bros. could be shelving the character while Deadpool mania is going on. Deadpool and Deathstroke have a similar look and name. Also, the Deathstroke costume in the Arrow Universe does not work at all, especially since the series teased a much more comic book looking version at the beginning. The Deathstroke costume in Arrow comes across like a lazy cosplayer and not a Terminator.
Where do you think Deathstroke will turn up next?
Netflix released a new teaser for the second season of Marvel’s Daredevil featuring the voice of the Punisher. The teaser doesn’t give fans much, but to hear Jon Bernthal’s first line as the Punisher does lend to goosebumps.

The CBS coverage of Super Bowl 50 was a snoozefest as 100 million people realized a defensive struggle and Phil Simms are not entertaining, on top of that the commercials didn’t help the evening either.
The one bright spot was the battle of wits between Alec Baldwin and Dan Marino. In a night of bland and the occasional misguidedness of creativity, the Amazon Echo ad was memorable and made you laugh. The 60-second spot also featured Jason Schwartzman and Missy Elliot.
The worst and creepiest ad goes to the NFL for trying to explain where babies come from. There’s nothing worst than watching the big game and thinking about your parents having sex, or all the couples in Denver.
Amongst the color and the pageantry of last night’s big game, a multitude of movie trailers were released, and one that caught our eye was The X-Men Apocalypse trailer. Check it out!
Following the critically acclaimed global smash hit X-Men: Days of Future Past, director Bryan Singer returns with X-Men Apocalypse Since the dawn of civilization, he was worshiped as a god.

As the fate of the Earth hangs in the balance, Raven (Jennifer Lawrence) with the help of Professor X (James McAvoy) must lead a team of young X-Men to stop their greatest nemesis and save mankind from complete destruction.
X-Men Apocalypse is in theaters in May.

Super Bowl 50 featured Peyton Manning winning what has been widely reported as is his final game, but we were also treated to a unique teaming of Marvel Studios and Coca-Cola as they had a big advertisement airing the big game. Even though you’ve probably seen the ad that played during the Super Bowl, it’s online for you to watch over and over again. Check it out!
