Lots of stuff for you this week! The big companies always release lots of goodies @ San Diego Comic Con (SDCC,) so we've got some fab new trailers: a selection of which I've given you here.
There's also some other stuff that I've come across in my comics-y web-wanderings, as per usual :)
Film Trailers Here's another li'l trailer for Guardians of the Galaxy, Vol 2 - which I've already seen!
(Dudes it's good - both hilarious and heart-breaking dammit!!!!)
OK, the thing that made nerd-dom collectively lose its sh** this week was the first teaser trailer for Thor: Ragnarok!
(And once again, proof that Chris Hemsworth needs to be in more comedy - his timing dudes, his timing.)
I really need to watch the first Guardians of the Galaxy film, because this new trailer for #2 has confirmed that me and Rocket Raccoon are well-matched personality-wise.
(Which is quite worrying, when you think about it...)
Another trailer for Guardians of the Galaxy vol 2!
(I really need to watch #1 - plus, I'm beginning to worry about how much my personality may or may not be like Rocket Raccoon's.)
WARNING: flashing images
Other Stuff
The Screen Junkies people who make Honest Trailers did one for Doctor Strange!
Now, I really did like Doctor Strange (whitewashing is inexcusable though,) but this pretty much hits the nail on the head!
Drug references, so be careful if playing this in public guys. Oh, and there are SPOILERS.
WARNING: flashing images everywhere.
And here's this week's comics-related links I tripped across while frolicking around the Internet:
Renaldo Matadeen @ Comic Book Resources gave us 15 reasons Suicide Squad didn't suck (which is totally legit - because I really enjoyed that film dammit!)
Film Trailers Another li'l teaser trailer for you, from Guardians of the Galaxy, Vol 2!
Other Stuff
First look at Avengers: Infinity War!!!!
Granted, this featurette feels a little pompous, and there's a lot of milking-it, (did she just dare to say that?! Yes, she did. #DealWithIt,) but still - as long as they don't let the hype out-do the film, it should be awesome!
Do you guys remember the Team Thor vid that was released a few months back?
It was basically a hilarious mockumentary of where Thor and Bruce Banner were during Captain America: Civil War (UK - US).
Well there's now a part 2 - which once again is just awesome.
I love Chris Hemsworth - he needs to be in more comedies; like, really badly!
'Yay! It's settled. We're getting a servant!"
That's all for this week my nerdlets - more comics and superheroes next Thursday, as usual!
So that Superbowl thingummy happened in the US, and somehow that means we get new comic book movie trailers so I'm not complaining!
First up is a new trailer for Guardians of the Galaxy Vol 2
(Note to self: watch the first film. (Look, even I can't be up-to-date with all the superhero movies, ok? There's just so many of them!))
I love the nerdiness of giving it a volume label instead of just a number :)
And there are new Logan trailers! I love how awesome this film looks!!!!!!!!
And this ad feature thingy for Lego Batman...
...I really don't know wtf they fed the writers on this film, but it's clearly got some interesting ingredients (I'm thinking lots of caffeine and sugar!)
Webcomics
And, just like last week, I've got a little protest art via embedded tweets to show you! (Woo!)
