The first single is out now!

In case you couldn’t already tell, I’m eagerly awaiting the new My Chemical Romance album, Danger Days: True Lives of the Fabulous Killjoys. The first single was just released–like, seriously a few minutes ago–on iTunes and there’s a new lyric video up on the band’s YouTube page. Check it out here.

My weekend at Comic Con (aka the best weekend ever!)

I had the chance to go to my very first Comic Con this year with Trashwire and I had so much fun that I’m already dreaming of next year. I took over 400 pictures, but I put all the best ones in the photo galleries on trashwire.com.

Some of my faves:

Of course, my favorite part of it all was the two panels with Gerard Way. I took a zillion pictures and videos from both the Dark Horse panel and the Spotlight on Gerard Way panel, but these two are my favorites.

My reviews for ‘Predators’ and ‘Despicable Me’ are up on Trashwire

I’ve seen so many movies in the past couple weeks that I can barely keep track of all the plots anymore. Everything’s starting to run together and it’s all one big story involving a Predator adopting three little girls to try and break up his mother and her vampire boyfriend. Thankfully, I managed to separate all the plots before I wrote these two reviews.

Here’s my review of the highly-anticipated Predators. I love the original film and was very pleased that this film departed from the corny Alien vs Predator sequels.

The Predator franchise was slipping down the slope of ridiculousness and on it’s way to Mega Shark vs Giant Octopus territory when Robert Rodriguez was announced as the producer of a brand new enrtry to the Predator game. Thankfully, Rodriguez and director Nimród Antal brought back the suspense of the original and ditched the cheesy b-movie feel of more recent films starring everyone’s favorite dreadlocked alien.

Just a few days after the Predators press screening, I went to a screening for Despicable Me. Try having a 3D animated family film and a movie about people being skinned alive by aliens floating around in your head at the same time! Despicable Me was the opposite of Predators in terms of plot, but was very similar in terms of being enjoyable.

In the tradition of Shrek, Universal’s Despicable Me is a film for kids, that’s also fun for adults. The Pixar-like 3D animation wows children and the cast list alone is enough to get adults excited. When I saw the first trailer for the film, seeing Steve Carell, Jason Segel, Russell Brand, Julie Andrews, Will Arnett, and Kristen Wiig all listed together made me mark my calendar for the release date.
