My fourth real YouTube video

So last night I managed to do another YouTube video. The reason I'm not doing them so much since my last one was over a month ago is because, while I have ideas for them, I find it kinda hard to think of what to say in them. I'm still working on it and hopefully I'll have more really soon. This is just me showing my Pixar movies like when I did it with the Disney Classics. And so, here it is, please comment to tell me what you think and please subscribe for more really soon.

Avengers: Infinity War

And so everyone, we're finally here at the ultimate one. The movie that has been built up for the past 10 years and my most anticipated movie of all time, AVENGERS: INFINITY WAR. This is a movie that has gotten everyone excited. And this film has so far gotten fantastic reviews from critics and it's got a great score on Rotten Tomatoes. And so, with all that, I walked into the theatre super, super, super, super excited. More excited I had ever been for any movie before in my whole life. I even rewatched all the DVD released M.C.U movies to be prepared for it. And so, what did I think of it? ... Well... while I don't know if I can necessarily call it perfect, yeah, this pretty much lived up to all my expectations and exceeded a lot of others I had that I didn't see coming. And yeah, like always, this will have no spoilers to begin with and then I get into spoilers. Expect this to be pretty long because there's a lot of things to talk about. And so, what's the story? Actually, there's only one thing I'm going to talk about when it comes to the story, and that being the most obvious thing, the fact that Thanos has finally arrived trying to collect the Infinity Stones and the Avengers have to try to stop him. And that's all I'm going to say because every second had a new surprise and there's a lot of surprises that I don't want to talk about until the spoilers. This is a movie that is finally bringing together characters that have been set up for this humongous event for the past 10 years and Marvel has done an amazing job doing that with showing these characters and their personalities and showing just how fun they all are. Given how this is directed by the Russo Brothers again with handling so many characters in one movie, I can only imagine how hard it much have been to do this because there's a lot of things going on here. But they do a fantastic job of giving every character here something to. There's not one character here that's side-lined. And speaking of the characters, the cast here is so incredible as to be expected. There's not one cast member that isn't phenomenal here. Everyone does a really great job and the amount they have to balance in order to put this all together is terrific. Speaking of which, let's answer a huge question that people have been asking, "Is Thanos a good villain?" Yeah, he's a fantastic villain. Not only for the obvious reasons that he so strong and big, but he's also super scary in points and incredibly intimidating. They more than delivered when it comes to his character and Josh Brolin did an amazing job with the performance. And when it comes to scary things in the movie, there's a lot of those and this is a really dark movie. Probably the darkest M.C.U movie ever. It's, of course, very funny and the characters interacting is super enjoyable and fun, but this is definitely a dark movie. There's a lot of things in this I didn't expect to see in an M.C.U movie. And like I said the characters interacting in this is the best part of it. I love how this movie understands these characters so much and they act the way you'd expect them to with a lot of great lines being said. And the actual dynamics with the choices of teams with these characters is perfect, the writers picked the perfect teams because everyone works off each other perfectly with fantastic banter. And when the action scenes are there, what can I say? It's just the kind you'd expect when it comes to an M.C.U movie. The action is almost nonstop. In almost every second, there's a different type of action scene. I loved how they cut them with the way they were all presented. And the new type of things they have here are incredible like the new Iron Man armour, which might actually be my favourite Iron Man armour to date, the new fighting techniques the characters use and even all the new technology they introduce. It's all exciting and I can't wait to see this franchise continue. Although, without spoiling anything, I have no idea what they're going to do next after what's happened with the ending. I'm not gonna lie, this movie's ending was so sad and so surprising that I kinda teared up a little and people around me in the theatre were crying. I'm not even kidding. People were actually crying in the theatre. Now, as far a small quick negative I have with the movie, or not even with the movie, it's just a little something I want to mention, given how this movie does have so many characters with them all having things to do, sometimes it can be a little rushed. I can't really blame them because there's a lot of things to do in this with a lot of characters and it's a 2hr and 40min movie. And they do a great job with filling that run time. I was never bored once while watching it. That small part there is all I wanted to mention. So, I'm pretty sure I don't have to say this, but Avengers: Infinity War is fantastic. I would say they more than delivered with this movie and given the ending to the movie, I can't wait to see what they do next with it. And I don't know what they're going to do now that it's happened. Yeah, I am 100% recommending it. And so everyone, that's my review for Avengers: Infinity War. Thank you all so much for reading and I had a great time talking about it, and please comment down below to tell me what you think. Okay, now we're getting into the spoilers. And this is going to be long because there's a lot of spoilers to talk about.
Spoilers:
So first I wanted to address one thing. The question everyone's been asking ever since it was announced, "Where is the Soul Stone?" Well, when Gamora finally tells Thanos, I had no idea that was going to happen. I like that no one could guess where it was. And probably the biggest surprise for me was when we saw Red Skull again. If you remember, he was beamed into space by the tesseract, or Space Stone if you prefer, and seeing him back here was really surprise. And, during that scene, Thanos kills Gamora in order to get it. The whole scene where she dies had my mouth wide open. And it was great to see more of the Guardians with the Avengers, especially when Thor, Rocket and Groot try to get their new weapons. I thought it was awesome to see Peter Dinklage. I had heard he was going to be here and I liked seeing him. It was awesome that Groot helped make Stormbreaker. I also found it funny and cool that Thor got his eye back when Rocket gave him a new one. And then when the three of them stepped into the battle on Wakanda, that was a point where me and the entire audience were cheering. I'm not kidding. I especially loved the scene where Bucky and Rocket teamed up. That was so awesome and it brought the funniest part of the movie in my opinion when Cap said "I am Steve Rogers" to Groot. I loved seeing the new Iron Spider armour and they used it in some really amazing ways. Tony actually almost dies when Thanos stabs him, which I kinda thought was gonna happen. I actually thought this was the movie that killed Tony, but now, that doesn't happen. I actually thought the number 1 person that was going to die was Cap. I honestly thought he was going to be the main person to die. But, no, he doesn't. I thought the opening was awesome with Thanos attacking the Asgardians. He also killed Loki and Heimdal. I thought it was kinda sad that we never saw Korg. I guess Thanos killed him too. And, yes, I do think Loki is actually dead this time. I actually thought Loki was going to betray Thor again and try to steal the Tesseract to try to barging with Thanos to let him live. But, no, he dies in the first few minutes. Also, this is just what I think, but I think Hulk didn't come out because he was scared of Thanos after he beat him up in the opening. I liked seeing the flashback of Thanos taking away Gamora and I especially loved the scene where the two of them inside his ship when they were talking. The scene where the Guardians, Spider-Man, Iron Man and Doctor Strange fought Thanos on Titan was amazing. I loved it, and it was really sad when Thanos talks about how he killed Gamora and tried to attack him, but doing that screws that up and Thanos gets away just as the others were about to get the Infinity Gauntlet off him. And then, finally, let's talk about the biggest spoiler of them all, Thanos gets all the Infinity Stones after ripping the Mind Stone out of Vision's head and when he snaps his fingers, almost everyone dies. I don't even know what to say about that. I was just not expecting that and when it happened, I was honestly let kinda traumatised. It was so sad to see everyone just disappear. That was the scene that people were crying at in my theatre. And, yeah, I actually did kinda tear up a little when it happened too. And that's what I meant when I said I have no idea what they're going to do now. It feels like there's no hope anymore now that almost everyone's gone. And then there was the end credit scene. This movie only had one and it showed Nick Fury and Hill going somewhere but then they're disappearing and we even get a Captain Marvel tease. In case you don't know, Captain Marvel is coming out next year along with Avengers 4. And, like I said, I don't know what's going to happen in Avengers 4. I just really want to see where the franchise goes next. And that's really it. Everyone, thank you all so much for reading. Like I said, I had a great time talking about this movie. Thank you all again and please comment down below to tell me what you think.

My top 10 funniest characters in the M.C.U

With me seeing Infinity War later today, I thought I'd look at the previous movies in the M.C.U and talk about my favourite comic relief characters. This isn't just going to be the side-characters, it's more the characters that I feel were the funniest. And this has a lot more than the characters themselves, it also has to do with the actors or actresses playing them as well as the writers for them. And so, with that out of the way, let's begin and I hope you all like this.
10. Ant-Man:
See the source image
Starting us off at number 10 is Paul Rudd as the shrinking superhero, Ant-Man. Not only does the character have a lot of heart, but his comedic timing and fantastic delivery made him unbelievably funny with his kinda bumbling personality at points but also from his kinda off the wall comedy by being in a weird situation like when he "ruined" Hope and Hank's bonding moment or when he was in training against Hope.
9. Iron Man:

I know, it must be weird that I put Tony Stark at number 9 considering it's Tony Stark we're talking about, but I personally find some other characters even funnier than he is. Still though, if you know Tony Stark in the M.C.U, or comic books in general, then you know how he is. He's funny, quippy, fast-talking, smart-aleck and he takes every chance he gets to say a smart comment about anything. He's also hilarious when it comes to interacting with some of the other Avengers and coming up with some of the most hilarious material on the spot.
8. Falcon:
See the source image
Next up is Anthony Mackey as Falcon. This guy was not only one of the main new characters for the Winter Soldier, but he was also the funniest part of that movie and has continued to be a great comic relief ever since. You want an example? Just watch the first few minutes of the movie with him and Steve, especially when they're running. And given how he's been a great comic relief in the previous movies, I can't wait to see what kinda funny scene he has in Infinity War.
7. Spider-Man:

Another character that many people would probably put higher on their lists, but, again, there are just some other characters I find to be even funnier. But still, the M.C.U's version of Spider-Man is, not only the most comic accurate, but he's also the funniest with finding the perfect time to make jokes and quips during his crime-fighting. And all of it together make a hilarious version of the character that I can't wait to see more of. Not just because of the fact that I love this version of Spider-Man so much, but also because he's super funny and I want to see what they do with that next.
6. Wong:
See the source image
Next up is the library guard from Doctor Strange, Wong. One of the weirdest parts I find is that this guy says he's not very humorous and doesn't laugh that much, and yet he's one of, if not the funniest part of the first Doctor Strange for me. Just the banter he has with Stephen is so much fun with some amazing lines that I laugh at a lot. He's also super likeable and I have a lot of excitement to see him with the other Avengers later on today.
5. Drax:
See the source image
While all the Guardians of the Galaxy members are hilarious, the one I find to be the funniest and most enjoyable is Dave Bautista as Drax. Just the very out loud hilarious lines he gets makes him so unbelievably funny and likeable, but he's also hilarious when it comes to his kind of people, as Rocket said "His people are completely literal, metaphors are gonna go over his head." And they do and whenever we see that, it makes everyone laugh out loud a lot. But also in the second movie, he was the funniest part of it and he got so many fantastic moments.
4. Shuri:

At number 4 is T'Challa's younger sister who was introduced in his solo movie two months ago, Shuri. In my review for Black Panther I mentioned how Shuri was the funniest part of the movie for me. And I still believe that. She was hilarious. Especially the "WHAT ARE THOSE" scene. If you've seen the movie, then you know what I'm talking about. And not only that, but she had a ton of other great scenes as well that made me and a lot of other people in the audience laugh really hard. And with all of that, I can't wait to see what she does in Infinity War.
3. Luis:
See the source image
Do I even need to explain this one? While the movie Ant-Man may not be a super special movie, the one biggest advantage it had was Michael Pena as Luis. While the character had a lot of great moments and lines throughout the movie, I think we can all agree what the best part was. The scene where he was dubbed over the people talking.
And the character of Luis is super likeable, friendly, fun and I cannot wait for more of him in the sequel in a few months. Hopefully we'll get even more of him there.
2. Ned:
See the source image
Coming in close to number 1 is the best friend to the M.C.U's version of Peter Parker, Ned Leeds. While this version of Ned is nothing like his comic book counterpart, that makes it even better because we got a sort of fresh and more likeable and enjoyable version of the character. This version is hilarious, friendly, never annoying and has great interactions with Peter. Not only do you totally believe their friendship, but also just their interactions at time can be some of the best moments in the whole film.
And my number 1 favourite comic relief from the M.C.U is... Korg:
See the source image
And finally at number 1 is the main comic relief rock creature from last year's Thor: Ragnarok, Korg. Thor: Ragnarok was an attempt to make an even more comedic film for the M.C.U, even more than the Guardians of the Galaxy movies, and it succeeded in my mind. I don't know if I can say it's perfect, but it's definitely one of the most fun Marvel movies ever. And one of, if not maybe the best and funniest part of the movie for me was the director Taika Waititi as Korg. Just the very random thoughts he always came up with made him super enjoyable and lovable and hilarious. I also love how we didn't really see him in the marketing so no one really knew anything about him. Obviously there was that ad that showed him and Thor about Mjolnir, but, aside from that, no one knew anything about him. And all the better for it because that meant we got to see him and be surprised with whatever comedic scene he was in. And it was great to see him interact with the others and even just when he was introducing himself to Thor and Heimdall. And all that is why Korg is my number 1 favourite comic relief in the M.C.U. Thank you all for reading, please comment down below to tell me what you think and look forward to the big one coming later, my review for Avengers: Infinity War.

New Venom trailer

So today we got the first real trailer for the Sony Venom movie coming out in October. If you recall, I said the last trailer looked cool, but nothing that great. And, while I'm a bit more positive here, I feel kinda the same. Hopefully the movie is good, but so far, this marketing isn't really doing much for me. We do get to see Venom in this and he looks pretty cool. Not great in opinion, but not bad. Again, hopefully the movie is good and hopefully this will lead to Venom being in the M.C.U, but I'm still trying to be optimistic here. And so, here it is and I hope you all like it.

Deadpool 2 final trailer

And so yesterday we got the final trailer for Deadpool 2, which will be out less than 2 months ago. And with this new trailer, it seems like they're taking shots at even more things like DC and the M.C.U. The cast is also looking fantastic in this, especially some of the new ones. The actual look to the movie is amazing too. Not just the action, although that is awesome too, but also with the effects and how crazy this all looks. I'm loving it and I can't wait to see it when it's released. And so, here's the trailer and I hope you all like it.

My top 10 manga artists

With there being hundreds of manga titles out there, one of the best parts about them are the people who made them in the first place. These Japanese artists have some of the best book art I've ever seen. I myself already have a ton of manga titles with incredible art in them and the people who did them have an insane amount of talent. This list won't just be counting the artists' mangas, but also their storytelling and their influence on other manga creators. Also, this won't be counted by the mangas themselves, just what I mentioned, so, don't be thinking this is my ranking of my favourite manga or anime. And so, let's begin and I hope you all like this.
10. Hiro Mashima:
Hiro Mashima - Japan Expo 2010 - Day3 - P1460391.jpg
Starting us off at number 10 is the creator of the Fairy Tail and Rave mangas. While I've never really seen the Rave manga, his Fairy Tail manga alone has been so much fun to read. Obviously there's the anime that I'm most known for, but the manga has also been a fun read so far. I'm collecting them and I can't wait to get the rest. And a lot of the fun has to do with Hiro's amazing art and expert storytelling.
9. Nakaba Suzuki:
See the source image
Next up is the creator of the Seven Deadly Sins manga. I haven't mentioned this manga or anime before, but I really enjoy it and think it's really good. I really like the characters, setting, story, art and fun of it. And Nakaba's incredible art is a big part of the fun. The art is certainly amazing, and I really like the characters as I said like Meliodas and the others.
8. Tite Kubo:
Image result for tite kubo
Say what you want to about the disappointing direction of the Bleach manga and story towards the ending of it, but there's no denying the start and middle part of it were super fun, creative and really fantastic. And a lot of that has to do with the originally and art of Tite Kubo, who's art is one of the bloody and violent I had ever seen when I first saw it years ago.
7. Kazuki Takahashi:

One of the more underrated ones on this list, Kazuki Takahashi is the creator of the Yu-Gi-Oh manga. I'm actually really amazed with the various details Kazuki is capable of putting into his manga. Not just that, but it's incredible with his character designs and how he's able to do the different card designs in the pictures. The exploration and education of the character's pasts are all interesting too and love how detailed the mangas are.
6. Naoki Urasawa:
See the source image
While Naoki Ursawa's manga itself is incredible like Monster, I put him on the list just because of how absolutely amazing his manga artwork is. The stories in his manga are great too, but the art alone is worthy of looking at. He's also become a great inspiration for other artists like him and he has huge success with other manga too like 20th Century Boy.
5. Masashi Kishimoto:
See the source image
At number 5 is the master behind the Naruto franchise, Masashi Kishimoto. Reaching deserved phenomenal heights with this manga series, Masashi Kishimoto's amazing series has been going for a long time and even the manga series is still going with the Boruto manga. His expert storytelling along with ability to give character depth to everyone is beyond impressive. His manga also includes phenomenal art, action, stories and character complexity. People all around the world know of this series and it has even inspired many artists out there. And I'm almost done collecting all the 3 in 1 mangas.
4. Eiichiro Oda:
While Masashi Kishimoto may have a fantastic legacy with Naruto, no artist has been making as much success as Eiichiro Oda, as in the creator of the long-running manga series One Piece. Eiichiro Oda has been doing the One Piece manga ever since 1997 and is still going to this day. Who knows when the manga's gonna end, but I can't wait for the end like a lot of people and it will be super interesting to see it all end after all this time. Seriously, it's been going even long than I've been alive. And the manga itself has amazing art with fantastic stories, characters, mysteries, investment and action. And, yeah, like I said, I cannot wait for the ending to eventually come out.
3. Takeshi Obata:
Image result for takeshi obata person
Now, Takeshi Obata is on the list for the same reason as Naoki Ursawa, as in the art his art is unbelievable. He's the artist for the Death Note manga. He's not the writer, just the artist and the art in Death Note might be the best looking manga series I've ever seen. You can definitely tell the art done in that manga is done by a professional. And the art in the manga easily helps tell the story as well with the best kind you'd ever see.
2. Hiromu Arakawa:
Image result for hiromu arakawa
Coming in close to number 1 is the genius creator of the Fullmetal Alchemist series, Hiromu Arakawa. While tons of artists have made a lot of success, none have managed to reach the same amount of heights that she has thanks to her outstanding series. Not just Fullmetal Alchemist, but she's also done other manga series like Silver Spoon. But we all know that the Fullmetal Alchemist series is her best and one of, if not the best manga/anime of all time with Brotherhood. Is it my favourite? I don't know. But no one can deny just how much of a genius Hiromu is with her art on it and her mastery storytelling in it as well.
And my number 1 favourite manga artist is... Akira Toriama:
Akira Toriyama.jpg
And finally at number 1 is the inspiration for all manga artists out there, Akira Toriama, A.K.A, the creator of Dragon Ball, is easily the most famous manga/anime of all time with the most famous manga/anime character of all time, Goku. Not only is the creator of this incredible series, but he's also a video game designer and is the one has helped inspire so many artists after him because of Dragon Ball and has inspired so many people around the world and helped them get into anime and manga in general all thanks to his imaginative work for the story and the unique characters and powers. If it wasn't for him, anime may not even be the amazing piece of entertainment that it is today, and I can't wait to find out what he does next. And so everyone, those are my choices for my top 10 manga artists. Thank you all for reading and please comment down below to tell me what you think and, if you like manga, please comment down below to tell me who your favourite manga artist is.

My top 10 favourite video game characters

Video game characters have easily become some of the most popular characters ever. And with me talking about tons of video games before, I thought I'd talk about the many different characters and talk about my 10 favourites. And, this is gonna have a couple of rules so, let's go over them. This will only be video game original characters, so this won't have any characters from games that're based on a movie or a TV show. And I'm also only including a one character per franchise on here unless it's a villain because, well, let's face it, if I didn't, this list would just be full of Kingdom Hearts characters. And so, let's begin and I hope you all like this.
10. Crash:

Starting us off at number 10 is the kinda crazy Bandicoot from the series named after him. After the evil scientist, Dr. Cortex created him to do his bidding, Crash went against him and Uka Uka and has stopped his plans along with Aku Aku. He's also doesn't really funny and has cool ability like combat skills and the ability to spin really fast and hijack mutants with Aku Aku.
9. Pit:
I actually haven't played all of the Kid Icarus games, I know there have only been three, but I've only actually played Uprising. And from that game alone, as well as playing Smash Bros. Pit himself is a super enjoyable character. He's kinda dumb in cases, but he's really funny and I really like the interactions between him and Palutena. He's also a really skilled fighter and he has a great arsenal of weapons.
8. Ratchet:

Number 8 is the last of his kind with the skills of a mechanic, Ratchet. Being the last Lombax alive, Ratchet spent his original days as a mechanic trying to make a spaceship to explore the universe. When he met Clank, they both stopped an evil villain named Drek from destroying their planet and killing a bunch of people. Ever since then, the two of them have been on countless adventures and have saved tons of planets. They both become really famous in their world. And Ratchet himself is a lot of fun, he's funny and knows when to take things more seriously when needed.
7. Sephiroth:

At number 7 is my favourite video game villain ever, Sephiroth. Originally a good guy, when he discovered that he was actually an experiment, went against everything he ever believed in and decided to turn the planet's energy and become a god-like being. And even now, he seems to just want to mess with Cloud and torture him. Also, small thing that I sorta think of with him, but I always feel that he's a super charismatic character, from the way he talks, to the way he acts, even by the way he fights.
6. Cloud:

Speaking of Cloud, here he is at number 6. This guy original wanted to make it to SOLDIER, but never did. With his friend Zack, he started saving tons of people and became a hero when he stopped Sephiroth. His weapon is a gigantic sword called the Buster Sword. While not exactly what you would call the most positive or happy-go-lucky guy ever, Cloud clearly does want to do what's right and does care about his friends.
5. Mario:

Easily the most popular character in video game history, Mario has become probably the most popular Japanese character of all time, I think anything. This Italian plumber is the main protector of the Mushroom Kingdom. When he first came out, people immediately loved him and he's easily one of the most popular characters of all time. He's also a lot of fun as a character and, while he may not have much in the way of a personality that much, he's still great. I mean, the Mario franchise is so full of memorable and likeable characters, but it's main hopping plumber might be my favourite.
4. Yoshi:

I know I said that I would include one character per franchise here, but Yoshi did technically have his own stand-alone video game series. And the character himself is very likeable, very entertaining and pretty adorable too. This small dinosaur has been around for ages and is still as big a character as ever today. He's been helping Mario throughout many adventures and even made it through a lot of his own like in Yoshi's Woolly World for example. And he's got some amount of abilities like gliding, speed and being able to eat other creatures and then turning them into eggs.
3. Kirby:

This pink, 8 inched little baby creature has been protecting his universe as a Star Warrior for a long time. Kirby may not look like much, but he's got a lot of strong abilities. For one, he's actually strong, fast, has an inhale ability, can fly anywhere on his Warp Star or just inflate himself to get places and has a copy ability with the inhale ability. He's so tough with his body that hardly anything can actually hurt him. And it's his fun babyish personality that I like about him the most, but he's also just a great character with a very simple design.
2. Sonic:

Coming in close to number 1 is the spiky, blue, fast hedgehog himself, Sonic the Hedgehog. When it comes to video game characters that I feel to be the most fun, Sonic MIGHT be my favourite. And, remember, that's a really big MIGHT. But he IS a super fun character and I love him. He's got a super fun, smart talking and cocky guy who the fastest video game character ever. With his speed, Sonic can get most anywhere at anytime. He's super funny but also super friendly and caring. And I love that aspect of him. And he's a character I've always liked and will always continue to love.
And my number 1 favourite video game character of all time is... Sora:

Come on, what can I say about Sora that I haven't said a trillion times before. Out of any character I've ever seen, not just video game, but characters in general, Sora is easily the best I've ever seen. Existing in a series where friends are incredibly important, Sora is the most friendly character you'll ever see. But it's not just that. He's got a super fun personality, he's funny in cases, he's an amazing fighter, he's incredibly positive and optimistic, he's got a lot of skills, he's easy to adapt to anything and will do whatever is required to help everyone. He's also the most inspirational character I've ever seen and he's changed me in a lot of ways. In some cases, he'll even try to help the villains sometimes by trying to make them good. A super fun character that anyone can like, I can't wait to see him fight and win against Pit in Death Battle in two weeks and I can't wait to see what they're going to do with him in Kingdom Hearts 3. And so, everyone, those are my top 10 favourite video game characters of all time, thank you all for reading and please comment down below to tell me what you think.

Kingdom Hearts 3 Classic Kingdom Trailer

So a little while ago we got a new small trailer for Kingdom Hearts 3. The only difference is that this isn't like an actual trailer. It's showing Sora, Donald and Goofy in Twilight Town meeting Hayner, Pence and Ollete and them showing him a game. Which is kinda cool. Sora playing a game like that. I know, technically, there was the Light Cycle in Kingdom Hearts 2, but this time it's an actual video game showing him as a kinda classic character in black and white with King Mickey. And the visuals in this are still great. We see the obvious visuals with the game itself with Sora and the others, also that scene of seeing Sora's face is really well done, but also a tiny bit strange to me, I don't know why though, but then there's the visuals for the game he's playing, which is also great and it's cool to see him in a black and white world again. I think this is going to be a mini game for the game. And so, here it is and I hope you all enjoy.

Incredibles 2 second trailer

With there only being 2 months left before the second Incredibles movie comes out, it was inevitable that were going to be getting another trailer soon. While I personally wasn't the biggest fan of the last trailer, this one perfectly fixed the problems I had with the previous one and makes it a whole lot better. This shows more footages, obviously, and makes it even bigger with the action and some really funny scenes. This trailer alone has made me a billion time more excited for the movie coming out soon, which I never knew would be possible. And so, here it is and I hope you all like it.

Avengers: Infinity War TV Spot

So Infinity War will be out two weeks from tomorrow and I'm actually seeing it the first day it's out, which I may or may not have mentioned before. I'm just saying it in case I haven't, and as this promotional stuff is coming out more and more, like the pictures and TV spots, the anticipation for this for me can't be any higher. And this one in particular is already doing what the other promo stuff has been doing by giving away a lot of footage, but still not really giving away anything in terms of the plot, which is great. If they can continue for the next two weeks, I'd be so happy and I'd be going into the movie so giddy. And so, here it is and I hope you all like it.

My top 8 Dragon Ball and Sonic the Hedgehog similarities

So with past entries I've made countdowns discussing the similarities between two different sources of entertainment. And so, now, I've decided to talk about a pretty obvious one from Japan, Dragon Ball and Sonic the Hedgehog. My brother and I have both made jokes before about the different similarities between these two. There's so many that anyone can make. In fact, you could really say that without Dragon Ball, Sonic never would have existed. And, yeah, 8 was all I could think of, that's why I made this 8. And so, let's begin and I hope you all enjoy this.
8. Bulma, Tails:
Image result for bulmaImage result for tails
Starting us off are the two main hero geniuses of the group. Bulma and Tails are both engineers who create tons of inventions for the other heroes. They both also started their engineering careers at a young age with a plane being their main vehicle of transportation. They're also some of the closet friends to the main hero, with Tails actually already being Sonic's best friend.
7. Androids, Metal Sonic:

These two robotic devices were all created to kill the main hero. Dr. Gero created the androids as a way to kill Goku, as well as creating Cell. When Dr. Eggman first saw Sonic in action, he thought the best way to beat him would be to create an evil robot version of him. Also, the fact that both the androids and Metal Sonic eventually turned on their creators and they're some of the hardest opponents the heroes have ever faced.
6. Dr. Gero, Dr. Eggman:

Speaking of which, both of these mad scientists are at number 6. When Goku returned to Earth after Namek, he found out some androids were out to kill him. And Dr. Gero was the one who created them. And Sonic's archenemy is Dr. Eggman who sorta has the same goal to kill the main hero. Both are machine creating evil doctors who want nothing more than to kill Goku and Sonic and then take over the world. They also, like I said, are eventually betrayed by their creations.
5. Trunks, Silver:


These two time travelers are both from a devastating future. With Trunks, he comes from a future destroyed by the androids while Silver comes from one destroyed by Iblis. Both of them then time travel to the past to destroy a target that they believe will put their time back to normal. They both also have silver aspects to them. I know Trunks' hair is purple, but in Dragon Ball Z, it looked silver and Silver's name is literally Silver.
4. Goku, Sonic:

At number 4 at the main protagonists of these two franchises. These two are both extreme optimists who always fight for their friends no matter what. Also the fact that they're both incredibly fun, fast and have a lot of the same personalities in even more ways. And the two of them just show off who they are in such similar ways and they both always try to save they're friends and even try to become better than they are.
3. Vegeta, Shadow:

Probably the most obvious one of them all, both Vegeta and Shadow are practically the exact same. In fact, there's almost no difference between the two. They're both pretty much anti-heroes and they both look the same, act the same, sound the same. There's practically no difference to be found with them. But that's not entirely a problem. They're both great characters and it's fun to watch them both.
2. Super Saiyan, Super Sonic:

My brother and I like to make biggest joke with these two by saying Super Sonic is the number 1 biggest similarity to Dragon Ball. Personally, I think there's one more, but still, yeah, Super Sonic is the exact same as Super Saiyan. The character going gold in some way and getting stronger. But, actually, there's something I actually discovered by myself kinda recently. When Sonic and Goku are in their normal forms, their hair and spikes are just fine. And when Vegeta and Shadow are in their normal forms, their hair and spikes are always up. And when they go Super, their hair and spikes stay the same, but when Goku and Sonic go Super, their hair and spikes go up, exactly like Shadow and Vegeta. That's another similarity between the two.
And the number 1 Dragon Ball and Sonic the Hedgehog similarity is... Seven Dragon Balls, Seven Chaos Emeralds:

And finally at number 1 is the main thing to do with Dragon Ball and the objective of the Sonic franchise, the seven Dragon Balls and the Seven Chaos Emeralds. Considering the whole series of Dragon Ball is named after the Dragon Balls, it would kinda be silly to ignore this fact, but while both the Dragon Balls and the Chaos Emeralds have different powers, there's the same amount with the two of them and the heroes are always searching for them. They're also the target for some of the villains too. They also help defeat the villains in a couple of occasions. And so everyone, those are my top 8 Dragon Ball and Sonic the Hedgehog similarities. Thank you all for reading and please comment to tell me what you think, and if you think I missed one, please tell me what other similarities there between these two.

My top 10 One Piece characters

For some entries I've done before, I've counted down my top 10 favourite character from different anime series. And so here, I'm going to be counting down my favourite characters from an anime I've been watching for a while, One Piece. As I said in November of last year, One Piece was an anime I wanted to start watching and I've mentioned it a few times in a few of my previous entries. I've even mentioned before about how Luffy is one of my favourite anime protagonists now from what I've watched. And so, let's begin and I hope you all enjoy.
10. Tony Tony Chopper:
Starting us off is this half human, half reindeer creature who's both a doctor and an adorable companion. Mainly just called Chopper, this guy's home was held by the tyrannical Waffle until Luffy and his crew freed it. Chopper then joined the crew and can even turn into a huge beast-like form from having one of the Devil Fruits. So, basically, never push him too far.
9. Nami:
This burglar started off doing nothing but just stealing all the treasure she could find. In fact, at times, even after she joined Luffy's crew, she made it look like she betrayed him a couple of times just for treasure. However, when it came time to see why, it was revealed she was only doing it to buy the freedom of her homeland from the shark men. Once Luffy defeated them and freed her home, she joined the team for real as the navigator and has helped out on many occasions.
8. Robin:
One of the more traumatic members of the Straw Hat Pirate crew, Robin has had one saddened life. Her family and home was destroyed and she was immediately branded as a criminal. When the world government went after her, she spent twenty years on the run and was hated everywhere. After serving a villain, she eventually met Luffy who offered her the friendship she had been longing forever. After Luffy and the others went up against the world government to free her, she joined the Straw Hat Pirates and is one of nicest, sweetest and kind-hearted members. Especially towards Luffy himself.
7. Sanji:
Given Luffy's appetite, it would make sense that he would want the best chef ever. That description falls to Sanji. A cigarette-smoking lady's man who flirts with any woman he meets. He was once a boy who was saved by his mentor cook and he felt he needed to repay him. He also has a power in his leg to make it turn into some sort of hot molten. And his life-long dream is to find something called the All Blue.
6. Usopp:
This professional marksman started off as a cowardly pathological liar who was the friend to a woman who loved his tall tales. Once Luffy, Zoro and Nami heled his stop her butler from killing her, he decided to leave and become of the first crew members of the Straw Hat Pirates. Plus, let's face it, if it wasn't for him, Luffy never would have gotten his ship, the Going Mary. He's also probably the funniest character in the series and has been one of Luffy's biggest supporters.
5. Trafalgar Law:

Once an enemy to the Straw Hat Pirates, this guy quickly turned and became one of Luffy's biggest allies. Another character with a Devil Fruit power, not only did he save Luffy's life, he also helped him reach Amazon Lily while he was knocked out. He even managed to avenge his friend when fighting the villain Doflamingo. He even has a tragic backstory and that's all added up to make an extremely likeable character.
4. Ace:

Luffy's adopted older brother is at number 4. The biological son of the Pirate King, Gol D. Roger, this guy was introduced as a member of White Beard's crew. He also has a Devil Fruit power. He has the powers of the Flame-Flame Fruit. The entire time he was there, he was fun and a funny character to watch until he was captured by the world government. Despite Luffy doing everything he could to save him, Ace eventually died saving Luffy's life, which is still the saddest moment in the series so far. Especially when you listen to the goodbye he says to Luffy just before he dies with a smile on his face.
3. Shanks:

Luffy's childhood pirate friend is at number 3. This guy is the main reason for a lot of things in Luffy's life. He's the main reason Luffy wanted to become a pirate and he's the one who gave him his iconic straw hat. When he came back one day, he saved Luffy from a gang of pirates and even saved him from a huge sea creature and lost his left arm doing so. This guy actually reminds me a lot of Gildarts from Fairy Tail in a lot of ways to me. They both look the same and have the same kinda personality. Shanks is also like a father figure to Luffy and is one of the nicest and friendliest characters I've seen in the series so far.
2. Zoro:

Coming in close to number 1 is the former pirate hunter and Luffy's first real companion, Roronoa Zoro. There are none that even come close to how likeable this guy is. When Luffy freed him from the marines, he joined him and became Luffy's first crew member. They quickly became close friends and Zoro has so much likeability to him. He even deals in the three-sword fighting style, which has proven useful time and time again. He's made a goal for himself to become the world's greatest swordsman. What's even better though is his undying loyalty. Doing whatever it takes to protect everyone, especially Luffy and making sure he's safe and doing everything to get him out of trouble.
And my number 1 favourite One Piece character is... Luffy:

And finally at number 1 is the Straw Hat Pirate himself, Monkey D. Luffy. Are you really surprised? This main character has so much to him. This ambitious pirate captain has the dream of finding the One Piece and becoming the King of the Pirates. Despite being, probably, the dumbest anime character ever, Luffy's personality shine through so much that you just ignore that and love him. Just like any anime protagonist out there, Luffy will do whatever it takes to protect him friends, or crew in this case, and even any other innocent person. He declared war on the world government to protect Robin, saved Nami's homeland, saved an island from a violent uprising, took on the navy to save Ace, protected people on Amazon Lily despite being hated there originally. He may be not be the most loved person on the sea, but, just like so many people like him, he's truly an anime hero. He's also super funny and likeable. And all that Luffy is my favourite One Piece character and definitely one of my favourite anime protagonists ever.
