Thor Love & Thunder Trailer Finally Releases!

-

 



Taken everyone by surprise this morning, Marvel Entertainment dropped the Thor: Love and Thunder teaser trailer. Fans of the MCU have been anticipating this movie for years now and speculating when the trailer would drop as this has been the longest the MCU has gone without a trailer for one of their largest films. Well today we finally got it and it looks amazing! Our first look of Thor is in a trucker outfit as he works out with the chains attached to the corpse of a giant monster. As seen at the end of Avengers: End Game Thor Odinson is still with the Guardians of the Galaxy. As he engages in battle with the team Thor narrates about how he feels lost and doesn't want to be a superhero anymore.

We get a montage of various locations such as few planets, Mount Olympus and Zeus's arm holding a lightning bolt, and Valkyrie as the ruler of New Asgard on Earth. The imagery and colors are as vibrant as they were in Thor: Ragnarok. This teaser trailer ends off with a little joke between Thor and Star Lord like we see these trailers usually end with, with a stinger of Jane Foster's God of Thunder at the end wielding a refurbished Mjlonir.

With Taiki Waititi at the director's seat once again and this new trailer, I'm more than pumped for this movie. When this film was announced it was inferred that Jane Foster will be the main character of this film as she will be taking up the mantle of God of Thunder, but until the last frame of the trailer it seemed like Thor is the main character of the movie. I haven't read up on anything about this film as I now like to go into films knowing as little as possible. Hell, I almost didn't want to click on this trailer, but I did since I saw it had just been uploaded fifty minutes ago. 

Marvel also revealed a new poster for Love and Thunder which you can view below along with the trailer. Thor: Love and Thunder releases in theaters July 8, 2022.

The Fashion of Persona

    The Persona games have some surprisingly stylish outfits in a genre that's known for terrible outfits. In this entry I want to explore the inspirations in the clothing of characters in the Persona series and how it relates to their character. I never got the chance to finish Persona 3 and after looking for a while I can't quite tell if Persona 3's cast has casual outfits like in 4 and 5 and also a part of me wants to wait until I actually get to properly play 3 so I'll pass on discussing Persona 3, but in Persona 4 Arena the cast gets all new outfits. They are definitely more costumes than traditional clothes for the most part: Yukiko has a superhero look going on with her, which after playing Persona 5 makes me think maybe in this universe she's an actor for that Featherman TV show and is the pink ranger. Junpei is a professional baseball player I guess. I'm not sure what's going on with Akihiko, that robot is still a robot, and Mitsuru... Mitsuru. I lo

4C Pixels: A Look at Black Hair in Video Games

  I've been playing video games for a very very long time now and one of the things that has been bugging me in my adulthood is the lack of afro-centric hairstyles in video games. I play a lot of RPGs and these games often have character creation and customization. As a creative I love any game that gives me freedom to express myself. I love designing the look and the playstyle of my characters. It's just frustrating that my options are so limited when it comes to making a character that looks black and the most egregious part is the lack of hair options. If the title does possess any black hairstyles it's going to be a Party City looking-ass afro, cornrows with no hangtime, and maybe some locs. I would count the low cut, but it's really just a buzz cut. The Grand Theft Auto games is one of the few games I recall that had a good amount, specifically San Andreas since most of Franklin's options in V were just variations of fades and Cesars, but it really shouldn'

Catwoman: Hunted Review

       DC in the animated realm is just about as good as it is in its original medium of comics. The new Batman film starring Robert Pattison is coming out in less than a month and we have one other Batman related film to watch before then, Catwoman: Hunted . Catwoman: Hunted stars Elizabeth Gillies, Stephanie Beatriz, Lauren Cohan, and Kirby Howell-Baptiste. This film takes a new animation direction with anime veteran Shinsuske Terasawa at the helm. This isn't the first time a DC property has gotten the anime treatment.  In 2009 Gotham Knights came out and featured anime styles in the film and I think that is the most recent in memory. The anime influence is apparent as soon as the opening credits with music and visuals reminiscent of the lauded Cowboy Bebop which Terasawa had a hand in making. The animation in Hunted is also pretty cool. It does a great job at instilling motion and emotion. The fight scene at the beginning of the film and at the end are particularly cool. One t
