You guys kept asking for it, we started looking around for it; and now we have a huge slew of brand-spanking new Marvel T-Shirts! Bask in their awesome glory and indulge in your every Marvel fantasy...well, not that one involving the Phoenix and Emma Frost. We aren't that naughty! However, we may be able to arrange some time to play around with the Infinity Gauntlet but you'll have to behave. We are a lot like Santa Claus, but instead of gifts or coal we dole out Infinity Gauntlets for the gooduns and we drop off Mr. Sinister at your house if you're bad. You know you love us(at least you should if you know what is good for you!).
So we have all of these new recent developments with Captain America, or as I like to scream out here, CAPTAIN ERRRRRMERICA(gotta let that patriotism sing out like you're a backup singer for Team America). So apparently we aren't calling him Cap anymore, but Steve Rodgers Super Solider? Ugh, that is going to take some getting use to. Bucky gets to keep the title and Cap is called by his first name? That's like if one of the Robins became Batman and we started call Batman 'Bruce Wayne – The Caped Crusader'. Maybe some of you guys like the change, but I'm just kind of...iffy. Is Captain America like the 'Highlander' and there can be only one? I must have missed that issue where Sean Connery injects Steve Rodgers with the serum, but it certainly would make more sense.
We also have that Thor movie coming out, which I'm sure most of you are probably frothing at the mouth for. I have money riding that AC/DC's 'Thunderstruck' will be featured throughout the movie, if not the opening credits. I'm still a little surprised that they managed to get Anthony Hopkins and Natalie Portman. I suppose I underestimate Marvel's ability to pull some A-List actors together for some of their properties but I guess that they are becoming more and more popular! Let's just hope that Thor can handle Anakin Skywalker and Hannibal Lecter...wait, that doesn't make much sense. I feel like I'm getting my movies mixed up. Oh well. I'm sure that Thor movie will be interesting to say the least...specially is Loki is allowed to have some fun! I'll probably wear the Loki shirt when I go to see the movie, I like wearing the antagonist t-shirts to things just to let everybody know where I stand.
Much like Charlie Sheen, news about the Spider Man reboot and star-crossed Broadway show sure have become rather pervasive. Constant rewrites, injuries, and and delayed start times have easily made the Spider Man Broadway garner an immense amount of hype. They claim that it'll be a new form of play, and it'll revolutionize the way people look at Broadway. Lofty aspirations to say the very least. I think it'll make a ton of money, but I'm not going to make a judgment on quality(I'll leave that to you guys). We also have a Spider Man reboot in the works with him in High School? Again, see previous statement. I need more information before I form an opinion! I wonder if it'll taste like winning?
Of course where would Marvel be without their X-Men? I would say that Wolverine is mighty close to becoming their flagship character and dethroning everybody's favorite wall-crawler. People just love that berserk feral quality! Wolverine has already created a spinoff movie with another in the works, and the X-Men franchise continues to pick up steam. Mutant powers are pretty sweet, I would just hate if I got a lame one like sparkly fireworks. That would only serve me well at birthday parties, Katy Perry music videos, and the 4th of July.
Finally, I don't know if you guys have it yet or not but Marvel vs Capcom 3 is out and that game is just pure, epileptic fun. Seizure inducing fun, really! I personally like just picking characters from the Marvel side and listening to their reactions to each other. Captain America and Wolverine are cheeky...but then again everybody has choice words for Wolverine! The character roster might be a little smaller, but man is that game pretty!
