    It's funny how three years ago, hardly anyone knew about the Guardians of the Galaxy and nobody expected it to be a hit. And now I just saw Geico, Hanes, and Ford all run commercials about them. Groot was hanging out with the Gecko and underwear will help you save the universe.
     
    Hollywood is weird.

    Pokemon Insanity

    By Hordaki,

    So apparently this is a thing people can do with TASBots:
     

     
    (Note that this is an unaltered ROM of Pokemon Yellow and could work on actual GameBoy hardware)
     
     
     
     
    I don't understand technology anymore.

    I've always been a fan of the books and I liked the movie, so I was really excited for the Netflix adaptation of A Series of Unfortunate Events. If you've never read the books, it's about three recently-orphaned children who are pursued by a villainous actor who wants nothing more than their family fortune told through a strange blend of mystery and black comedy with a lot of witty narration by the titular author Lemony Snicket. The show itself does a great job of capturing the tone of the books, with Patrick Warburton as the perfect Snicket and Neil Patrick Harris as a funny yet despicable Count Olaf. While it doesn't follow the books perfectly, most of the changes are additions to serve the ongoing mystery (which is understandable, the mystery in the books didn't start until around 5 and the show goes through the first 4). The show isn't for everyone, but if you have Netflix I would highly recommend checking it out. It's a very fresh debut for the new series.
     
    If you saw it, what did you think?

    A Revelation

    By Hordaki,

    The SpongeBob episode Squeaky Boots is just a child-friendly adaptation of 'The Telltale Heart' by Edgar Allan Poe.
     
    It's amazing what things you realize in the middle of the night while deprived of sleep.

    Cars 3

    By Hordaki,

    Um, Pixar... are you sure about this teaser? I get that everyone thought Cars 2 was too dumb and childish, and that you want to prove it can be serious. But are you sure the best way to do that is to disturb and potentially traumatize the kids who liked it?
     
    For the record, I do like the first Cars and I think Cars 2 was okay. I'm sure the movie itself will be lighter, and the teaser doesn't really have bearings on if Cars 3 will be good, but this is a surprisingly dark trailer for a film series most known for selling brightly-colored die-cast cars to small children.

    The Zelder Scrolls

    By Hordaki,

    AKA The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild
     
    The coolest part of this game is how it feels like a 3D AAA version of the first Zelda, where you have to explore to find dungeons and items. I know I'll like it and spend a lot of time in this game considering good gravy it's huge, but there is a part of me that hopes there's still some of the staples of older Zelda games like dungeons and a cohesive story.

    This is such a good teaser, getting you hyped without showing too much of the movie. I am both extremely excited and extremely nervous about this movie. I'm excited because it has a great cast, it has the music, and it looks like it'll be very respectful to the original. But I'm nervous because Beauty and the Beast is my favorite Disney movie, and I've never seen a remake of a movie I really cared about so I'm really hoping it lives up to the original.

    In honor of the impending release of Captain America: Civil War, whose side are you on: Captain America (the Avengers should have the freedom to do what needs to be done) or Iron Man (the Avengers should have accountability for their actions and answer to a governing body)?

    SplatBob ToonPants

    By Hordaki,

    SpongeBob vs. Patrick is the theme for the next Splatfest in Splatoon.
     
    I am going to post so many SpongeBob quotes on Miiverse. So many, they're gonna drown in it. Drown in it!

    Rogue One

    By Hordaki,

    Four thoughts on the Rogue One trailer:
     
    1. It definitely looks different from The Force Awakens, which is a good thing. Let the spin-offs be their own things.
     
    2. Good gravy that Mon Mothma casting is perfect. I honestly thought she was a CG recreation the first time I saw her (Genevieve O'Reilly also played her in Episode III, but I don't even remember her in that so take that how you will).
     
    3. I'm wondering if the Rebel guy with the mustache is Biggs. It looks like him, but I don't think there's been any confirmation.
     
    4. There is a Gonk droid. All is well.
