Person of Interest is Like Batman - Comparisons

Posted by Anthony Mango - Monday, November 26, 2012
I've been a fan of the television show Person of Interest since it's inception and it didn't take me long to figure out why. Person of Interest draws many comparisons to the Batman character - some obvious, some a little more subtle. For those unaware, Person of Interest was created by Jonathan Nolan, who helped write The Dark Knight and The Dark Knight Rises with his brother, director Christopher Nolan. When you start looking at the show...

Girl Meets World - Boy Meets World Sequel

Posted by The Dace Man - Monday, November 19, 2012
No no no. You are not miss reading my fellow 90s fanatics! The highly rumored project seems to be more and more like an actualization as 2013 quickly approaches. Though Ben Savage insist he can't speak about it, that, to me at least, implies it's more real than not. According to the world wide web Disney has ordered a pilot to feature the daughter of one of the most beloved couples in ABC history, Cory and Topanga. Begin the ultimate T.G.I.F....

Cable and Deadpool Review

Posted by Unknown
Never before has there been a more odd couple.  Karl Rove and Rachel Maddow would have nothing on these two. Cable is a mutant from the future with a messiah complex.  He knows the future and therefore believes he is responsible to fix the present.  He is a telepathic telekinetic with seemly unlimited power. He was infected with a techno virus as a child, hence the metal arm. Deadpool aka the merc...
This is a comic I would recommend to absolutely anyone.  Whether you are an avid comic reader, do not even know who Bruce Wayne is, or are anywhere in between.  This comic will keep your attention.   The story begins with a mysterious murder of a high ranking member of the organized crime family on Halloween day. From there each issue continues to tell the story of Batman attempting to catch the killer...

Posted by Anthony Mango - Monday, November 5, 2012
Welcome to the official relaunch of REVIEWPOINT, a segment that is coming over from my Out on Limbs blog like a pilgrim on the Mayflower. If you're unaware of how this works, reviews are based on a 3-point scale of HIT, RICOCHET, and MISS. These essentially translate to Good, Ok, and Bad respectively. What better way to start things off for Fanboys Anonymous than to go right into a film dedicated to game aficionados? It's time to review...

Much can be said about video game movie adaptations.  One thing in particular that can be said is that they usually aren't very good.  But, what about this video game adaption?  What can be said about this one?  Well... it wasn't very good. In my opinion, the first movie wasn't bad.  It wasn't great, but it definitely wasn't bad.  I enjoyed it.  I'm a fan of the Silent Hill series, and I felt that...

Boy Wonder Movie Review

Posted by Unknown - Saturday, November 3, 2012
No, they didn't make a movie about Robin, but it's slightly obvious that this story is directly influenced by Batman. The way the director works also shows that he may also have a great love for graphic novels. The movie follows a young 17 year old boy named Sean Donovan who, at a young age, witnessed his mother's murder right before his eyes. This changed him on a deep level. He became fixated on the man he saw that night, his mother's...

Earth's Mightiest Heros Canceled! Replaced by Avengers Assembled

Posted by Unknown - Friday, November 2, 2012
After two seasons Avengers: Earth’s Mightiest Heroes is no more. In this humble writers opinion, EMH was the best marvel cartoon since the original X-Men cartoon circa 1992. Despite being on the Disney XD channel the cartoon featured plenty of witty/sarcastic humor along with carefully crafted stories. With the characters back stories already told, the series was able to jump into classic stories and amusing interactions between the Avengers....
What up Fan boys? You cant stop the magic that is coming off the fingertips of yours truly, Chris "The Dace Man" Dace. For my fourth post of the day were gonna dive into the Joss Whedon series of the Astonishing X-Men. I'm pretty sure with just that sentence millions of pants babies were just born. Though Whedon only wrote the first 4 volumes of the Astonishing X-men there's no reason not to invest in this franchise...I know I say that...
