Even MORE KH Dream Drop Distance News

  So, I found out even more about Kingdom Hearts 3D: Dream Drop Distance:

• There will be even more World Ends With You characters. (I REALLY should play that game..)
• There WILL be a high-quality FMV with Xion AND Axel in it! (YAY!)
• More Confirmed Worlds: The Three Musketeers and TRON: Legacy.
• Sora gets a new Tron Suit and Riku gets his own Tron suit (sweet).
• There will be a young Xehenort.
• VANTITAS. WILL. APPEAR. (HECK. YES!)
• Apparently Ienzo will get older (maybe this will make his implied death less... sad).
• LEA IS IN HERE! (AND HE LOOKS MORE LIKE AXEL!)
• Japan's release has been confirmed for March 2012 (still no word about North America... :( )

 This game continues to look more and more awesome. This could possibly be the best game ever, and the forecast says it will be a million and six times better! Who knows? I can't wait to find out more. And to get my freaky little hands on a 3DS and play it.
Here's the latest trailer for the game. C'mon! Come out already!

Weekend Artwork #16- Kurt (Wagner) The Warbler

   Hey, peoples! I drew this sometime ago, and felt like posting it.

  So, as you no doubt know, I sort of like Nightcrawler. And I love me some Glee. Now, Nightcawler's real name is Kurt Wagner, and one of the Glee characters is Kurt Hummel. So, of course, I have to fuse the two....

 That's all I gotta say....

New Worlds For KH3D (And My Suggestions)

 So, I know two of the new worlds in Kingdom Hearts: Dream Drop Distance. One is a Hunchback of Notre Dame world and apparently Pinocchio is getting a new world, too. Oh, and Traverse Town will have two new districts.

 Anyway, I had some ideas for potential Kingdom Hearts Worlds:

- TANGLED WORLD

World Name: Corona

Why: Well, one of the themes in Tangled is following your dreams. And this is DREAM Drop Distance. Eh? Eh?

Story: *NOTE, I'm assuming the story'll be like Birth By Sleep, with Sora doing one part, and Riku doing the other, so that's sort of what I'm doing here* Sora will help Rapunzel and Flynn get to the Kingdom, and Riku will drop in when Flynn gets arrested, help him bust out of the dungeon, and get to Rapunzel's tower.

- MARVEL WORLD

World Name: ... I got nuthin'

Why: 'Cause it's awesome. 'Nuff said, true believers.

Story: ... Again, I got nuthin', Avengers won't be out in time. :(

- PHINEAS AND FERB WORLD

World Name: Danville or Tri-State Area

Why: Awesomeness/Hey, Neku's the first Non-Final Fantasy Square character in KH, why can't Phineas, Ferb, and the Gang be the first non-movie Disney characters to be in KH?

Story: Mini-Game World. Sora helps the boys with what they're gonna do that day (complete with rhythm game for the necessary musical number!), while Riku helps Agent P thwart Doctor Doofenshimrtz!

 So, those are my ideas. Anyone got any ideas? Anyone agree/disagree with mine? Let me know in the handy-dandy comment box!

Loveable Freak Talks About The (Comic) News: Avengers Vs. X-Men

  Alright, so I read that there's going to be an upcoming Marvel event: Avengers Vs. X-Men. From what I read, the Phoenix Force is coming back and something will happen that will pit the Avengers against the X-Men. Sweet. So it'll be like a more condensed Civil War? Well, I kind of liked Civil War, so I'll definitely want to find the trade when it comes out and keep up with what's going on.

 It'll be interesting to see where the X-Men who are ALSO Avengers place their loyalties. And there's the interesting news that in the "prequel" to the event, AVENGERS: X-SANCTION, they're resurrecting Cable.

Cable.

CABLE.

....

 OH COME ON! YOU BRING BACK CABLE AND NOT MY BELOVED NIGHTCRAWLER!? COME ON! I REALLY DON'T CARE ABOUT FUTURE BOY! EVEN IF HE WAS TIGHT WITH DEADPOOL! IF YOU AREN'T BRINGING BACK THE ELF, WHY ARE YOU BRINGING BACK CYCLOPS'S SON FROM THE FUTURE WHO DIED IN THE EXACT SAME EVENT!? D:<

*ahem* Sorry. Didn't mean to loose it....

Hey, lookitthat!

 Oh, Cable's got a cool giant sword on one of the covers. Epic.

 I do have a fondness for oversized fantasy swords.... (Buster Sword, anyone?)

 Anyway, one other thing is that the creative team said there will be a new host for the Phoenix with "red hair and green eyes". And this one comment on my favorite site for Comic Info (Comicvine.com) made my day and I loved it:

"The writers also implied that the Phoenix Force will be searching for a new host and that this host will have "red hair and green eyes.""
MJ?

          -DXmagma

Well I loved the idea of Mary Jane being The Phoenix (because it's crazy awesome), so of course, I had to draw art of it...

Yay! Insane cosmic entities endowing classic characters with power!

  That is all.

Weekend Artwork #15: Pravus For The Win!

  So, here we are again. I decided to do something more.... literary-based this week. There are many vampire books out there. Your opinion may very on how good some of them are. Recently, I read Awakened. And I was.... less than impressed. Anyway, it inspired this, a result of a three-way vampire fight...

In the end there can be only one...

 Yes, out of Twilight, House of Night, and The Chronicles of Vladamir Tod, Vladamir Tod's my favorite. He would totally wipe the floor with Zoey Redbird and Edward Cullen.

 "How?" You may ask. "Zoey's got like, crazy powers and Edward has no classic vampire weaknesses, that sparkly freak of nature!" Well, I have two words for you:

 The. Lucis.

 That is all.

 So, that's this week's Weekend Artwork. Do you agree with me? Do you disagree? Let me know in that there comment box!

Infamous Movie Reviews: Percy Jackson & the Olympians: The Lightning Thief

*Reader Beware, Ranting Ahoy*

 Here we are again. It is time for another review of a bad adaptation: Percy Jackson & the Olympians: The Lightning Thief! A movie distributed by, who else, 20th Century Butchers 20th Century Pox on Almost All Movies' Adaptations With Their Involvement 20th Century Fox. Like Airbender, it was one of the movies I was looking forward to. And c'mon, Chris Columbus did good with the first two Harry Potters (but in hindsight, he went to Rowling for help), and Night at the Museum was awesome. What could go wrong?

Everything. Everything could.

 So, shall we begin?

THE BAD

 -Hello? Clarisse? Where the heck are you, Ares, the Oracle, Mr. D, and several other characters from the book? Oh, wait, Annabeth apparently fused with you and took over part of your role (going against Percy in the first game of Capture the Flag).

-They took the fun of the "Greek Myths fused with Modern Day" stuff and wiped it away. Camp Half-Blood didn't look much like a summer camp (where were the awesome cabins?). And what about the Gods having modern looks (Zeus wears suits, Poseidon wears Hawaiian shirts, etc.)? There was only the first few minutes of the movie, Hades, and The Lotus Casino.

-Everything having to do with Persephone. 1) She didn't have anything to do with the pearls. 2) She wasn't.... attracted to Grover (I don't even think they met in the books). 3) She didn't have issues with Hades. 4) SHE. WASN'T. IN. THE. FIRST. BOOK. They explicably say in the book she was with Demeter.

-The aforementioned Persephone Grover attraction. That made me a little uncomfortable.

-WHERE!? THE!? HADES!? WAS!? KRONOS!? HE'S THE FREAKING BIG BAD OF THE FIRST SERIES!!!!!!!!! AND C'MON! NO MENTION OF THALIA!? SHE PLAYS A ROLE IN THE LATER BOOKS!!

- The Hydra doesn't appear in the first book. It comes up in the second. Seriously, if you needed a monster, Columbus, you could have used one FROM THAT BOOK! Like The Enchinda! I don't care of the Hydra's the better-known monster, USE ONE OF THE ACTUAL MONSTERS PERCY FIGHTS IN THAT BOOK!

-*ahem* All the deviations. Seriously, I understand cutting some stuff out, but some things shouldn't be messed with.

-What? No quest or prophecies?

THE (SURPRISINGLY) GOOD

-I kind of liked Hades having a modern spin here. It was the closest thing to the original books' trademarks, so best not to lick a gift horse on the mouth. (Off-Topic, but I first pictured book!Hades looking like Snape in the Harry Potter movies.)

-When I first saw the movie Grover, I was like, "Why is Grover black?" (In the art, he's a scruffy white guy, with a little beard). I know it may sound racist, but I was curious why he was changed. But I kinda liked movie!Grover better than book!Grover. I don't know why, but I just did.

-----

 Overall, I was disappointed. They changed to much stuff for me to fully enjoy the movie. It wasn't as entertaining as the book. Seriously. Well, at least there may not be anoth....

.....

 A SEQUEL!? HE'S MAKING THE SEQUEL!?

 Okay, Columbus, if you're doing the sequel and happen to be reading, listen up, I have some suggestions:

1. Don't take this so seriously, part of the books' appeal is that it still has fun with the world it's in and is funny when it needs to be.
2. PUT KRONOS AND THALIA IN THIS ONE! Thalia's important to the plot, and, as I said earlier, KRONOS! IS! THE! VILLAIN!
3. Ya know... Just... Just get the author, Rick Riordan, to help you out with the movie. In my opinion, adaptions are better when they have the author's input. Like I said before, J.K. Rowling helped with the Harry Potter movies, and those were good, Columbus. I mean, I read your first Potter movie was the second-highest grossing in the series. It not the end of the world to ask for help....

 That's all I gotta say about that. It wasn't the greatest adaption ever, and I'm desperately hoping the sequel's better......
