So positives and negatives of the Boom! series 16 issues and 2 annuals in? Make up list in bullet points.

I'm hopeful for a sequel. I don't know anyone who walked out of seeing the movie feeling disappointed; its generally been favourable reviews and positive word of mouth. I think if a sequel is made it'll be more financially successful, especially if the first movie is made available through some streaming service.

It has a 46% on Rotten Tomatoes. How the heck are those "favourable reviews"?

I picked up the Wal-Mart exclusive version of the movie this morning. Since the Aftershock novel that comes with the Target version was mentioned earlier, I wanted to mention that I've received word that the individual Aftershock novel also includes pages from issue 0 in it. The one that comes with the Target steelbook release of the movie just cuts those out. So that's why the one included with the Target steelbook release has fewer pages.

Was speaking about my experience with people who have seen it. And Rotten Tomatoes has a 71% audience score for what thats worth.

Wal-Mart in Canada's variant of the movie release has the same cover art as the US stores, but it also includes character postcards.

This post confuses me. Are you saying his post is greater than (>) paying attention to critic scores over audience ones? Is that what he should be doing? I don't get it.

Like, I agree people put too much weight on critic reviews (especially when trying to make arguments online), but I'm just confused by this post, haha.

Its used to point out things on social media lol, I dont know the technical term other than the whole greater than/less than stuff.

It's called green text and it originated in 4chan, it's basically how you tell a story or try to make a point and the > makes it so the text is green

It was supposed to be used to quote people but it's rarely used like that. Usually people who use it outside of 4chan get called out.

Although I'm not the biggest fan of the character of Kat Hillard I wouldn't mind seeing Elle Fanning play her in a sequel. She really does have some great acting chops and I do want to see her in a superhero film at some point in her career.

Aww man that's awesome, will it be similar to the short we got like 3 years ago?


Is gridman still not subtitled? a shame if it isn't I've always wanted to watch it.

SDCC will feature X-Men#1 Jim Lee tribute variants with the four interlocking. I do like the Green Ranger and Blue Ranger cover variant for the main series 17t issue.

The Power Rangers movie has become the number one bestseller of the week.

It has also done well in rentals.

Douglas Sloan, who wrote for PR up until the first half of Power Rangers Turbo, and the executive producer of Ninja Storm and Dino Thunder, has published a book called The Siren Chronicles. He also hopes for it to become a TV series. He'll also donate proceeds to several marine wildlife funds.

Cinema Blend talks about how that could be very helpful for getting a sequel the green light.

We will just have to wait and see if the film has legs in home media sales. Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Out of the Shadows debuted at the No. 1 spot on the home media and rental sales chart. However, it tumbled all the way down to No. 6 the following week.

Ultraman Geed, the newest series, has just started. And as per the usual, Crunchyroll is simulcasting it.

The series will be about the son of the vial Ultraman, Ultraman Belial

I've never watched an Ultraman show, well unless you count Superhuman Samurai Syber-Squad.
