Summer 2013 Day 16 : T-Minus 7 Days to Equestria Girls

I would like to say that I am considering being rather open minded towards headed to the theaters to see Equestria Girls. I am a solid Bring through and through, and giving this movie a chance is a Brony's duty and all... except for the fact only a small percentage if the United States can see this in theaters thanks to a horribly small theatrical release.

Despite the fact HASBRO has a full on set of merchandise ready to roll, including toys and maybe blind bags, lit including maybe a comic adapt eventually, and more... they're only releasing the movie in 200 theaters. 200. That is Spirited Away level poor theatrical release poor. And at 200 theaters? That is like 4 theaters per state... less for certain states if the biggest states get more than 4 theaters to screen it. What a disappointing turn of events. Yes the Brony community has not been the most enthusiastic about this, but with only 200 screens showing the movie odds are slim that you will be able to see this in theaters even if you wanted to be open minded about it. How disappointing.

Is the movie an ideal movie, given this is the 30th Anniversary of My Little Pony and the first Friendship is Magic movie? No. I think we could have had something better. A generational crossover, for instance. But this is the movie we were dealt, and sometimes we have to go to theater with the movie we are dealt like it or not.

Of late a bit more info has come to light, so as the days tick down I will go over the New stuff as we count down to the premiere of Equestria Girls... stay tuned.

Summer 2013 Day 12 : Some Multimedia This Summer

Well summer is here so what are some of the things we might be checking out? Here is a few, but I want to hear your recommendations for stuff happening this summer worth checking out! Post in the comments!

DC vs MARVEL on TV and Film
Well OK, movie wise it's just Man of Steel now, but animation on TV we have Avengers Assemble this month and The Real Gamma Powered Rage Beasts of Gammatown... I mean Hulk and the Agents of S.M.A.S.H... as interpreted by Reality TV. On the DC side it is Beware the Batman... whenever it premieres, with its new take on animated Batman with no popular Batman villains, Alfred as a part of the action, Batman teamed up with Katana from the Outsiders, and ongoing villain Drab Spectre... I mean Anarky. When this show premieres... hopefully that is announced at San Diego Comic Con.

Equestria Girls expands
The limited release theatrical movie is about to release, and the first multimedia tie in I'd about to release... apparently in the form of a GameLoft My Little Pony add on to the game. Still waiting to see what it is, but so far it seems to be a story arc involving Sunset Shimmer as the antagonist... what that involves, how much New stuff is added let alone the percentage between regular versus premium currency purchases (Canterlot Wedding story arc is disappointingly overstocked with Premium currency ponies and shops) remains to be seen... stay tuned for a first look at the expansion when it comes out shortly, stay tuned.

HALO The TV Series
No, losing all your rights as a gamer with XBox One didn't make a HALO TV Series worth it. So far Microsoft botched the introduction and pre E3 press release regarding the XBox One, and while I hope their E3 appearance turns it about... cancelling their post E3 round table where they could have sat down and talked in detail about the XBox One with concerned gamers doesn't bode well... in fact I am already dreading the next wave of ill news once the event happens... ugh.

On a personal note still waiting on the laptop, but once I got it and start working on podcasts updates to come. Stay tuned.
