WWE SuperCard review

I have never played "card battle games", the closest I have ever come was to be a referee at a Magic the Gathering tournament when my club hosted one to make some money.  If anything I thought they were too complicated but 2K  games makes WWE SuperCard real simple and if you have ever been a wrasslin fan in your life this game can peak your interest.  It serves as a good card battle for dummies like myself, I have been playing it for a non- stop for a few days and I have to say say I am hooked.   You can train your superstar of choice and make them your go to "Champ" you can do exhibitions and King of the Cage matches to earn more cards to train up your deck for more battles. I happened to download this when they added the new feature of The People's Champion , battling for a superstar in a current showdown on pay per view, mine was Night of Champions and I picked John Cena to have battles for.  This is a nice feature because it makes you want to get ...

Deadpool Movie is getting made.

    If you haven't heard by now, Marvel is finally going to make a Deadpool film.  Long time and old school comic book readers will be happy to see our fourth wall breaking favorite Merc with a mouth on the big screen.  Hopefully it will be done right and even though Ryan Reynolds played the bad version of Deapool, the characters fourth wall awareness might be an easy way to correct that. The move forward was due to Deadpool test footage released a few weeks back, if you have not seen it you can watch it below.  The reaction to it was enough for Twentieth Century Fox to go ahead and green light a film for this awesome character according to The Telegraph .   According to Reynolds in The Telegraph article, There was such an overpowering reaction to the footage, you sort of feel like, 'Oh, so we weren't crazy for our reasons for loving this character, for loving this role.' He credits social media for the help of finally moving forward in a film a lot...

'The Strain' Episode 9 Recap/review

     This episode slowed down a bit after last weeks episode and takes place directly after the battle at the gas station.  We also get more information about Setrakian, Eichorst, and The Master's  history and an update on Gus and his partner in crime who was bitten just before their arrest.  Also, Eph makes a pretty messed up blunder around Nora. Right after the escape from the gas station battle, Fet and the others try to drop off their new friend, Dutch Velders the hacker that unwittingly helped The Stoneheart group shut down the Internet. Fet accompanies her to her apartment to "make sure it's safe" only to find out that it is not safe and that her lover stole all her money for deeds done on behalf of Stoneheart.  She decides to stick with the group after Fet gets rid of an infected visitor and confesses her part in what is happening to Setrakian. They pick up Eph's son after rescuing him from his mothers boyfriend who got infected at work, Eph...

The Strain, episodes 6,7 and 8 recap.

    In the last 3 episodes we get more insight on Eichorst's and Setrakian's past, and witness the vampire like illness take over New York during the eclipse.  In the beginning of episode 6 we hear a little audio from various satellite feeds of the growing chaos and anarchy forming at the start of the eclipse.  We learned from Vasily Fet's encounter with the strigoi , sun light does burn them so that fact that the sun is going to be blocked by an eclipse further helps The Masters plan. There is no slowing down at this point in the series as all the characters we have met have had to defend themselves, or been taken by parasitic disease.  Eph, is on the run from the police while trying to help Setrakian stop it from spreading any further.  Gus and his boy get caught up doing more dirty work for The Stone Heart Group and dispose of a body along with Eph's friend and co-worker Jim Kent.  It seems Eichorst has had his thumb on a lot people in the plan...
