Check It Out: Deadpool Animated series on it's way to FXX from Donald Glover

By

Outside of Wolverine FOX does not have a hotter character right now than the merc with a mouth! With one epic box-office haul under his belt, and probably another on the way in 2018 alongside Josh Brolin's Cable, why not and try to capitalize on the character on the small screen as well? This is exactly what FOX's plans are, but maybe not in the form you would think.  Get the scoop and our thoughts after the break...



The plan now according to the Hollywood Reporter is for the new Deadpool show to be a TV-MA animated series with the beloved Donald Glover (Community, Atlanta) to helm as show-runner.

Personally I could not be more excited about this move by FOX! Donald Glover is one of the fastest rising stars both behind and in front of the camera in Hollywood, and if he is willing to bring his charm and comedic wit to a Deadpool animated series you can take that an run to the chalupa stand in excitement.  Also major props to FOX for thinking outside of the box here and be willing to take a risk with it's guaranteed box-office gold mine.

The Deadpool animated series will be 10 episodes, and no release date has been announced.  Nor has information about wether or not the series will be done with 2-D or 3-D animation.

     As Skeletor said in the 1987 film Masters of the Universe , "Everything comes to he who waits, and I have waited so very long for this moment." Yes, after one year of preorders, waiting, concepts and preproduction pieces, constant changes, small victories, crushing defeats, and sheer anticipation, Castle Grayskull has finally arrived to my home. Earlier this afternoon my wife texted me a picture of the enormous box sitting in our kitchen and I've been jazzed ever since. Heck, I've been singing the Castle Grayskull song all week now to help myself pass the time. Before I even open the box, I have to say that while there have been plenty of ups and downs on the journey from having Castle Grayskull exist simply as a sketch on paper to existing as an actual product delivered to my door, I think there are some folks that need to be commended. First, regardless of all other issues I don't think anyone can say that Scott Neitlich ("ToyGuru") and the Fo

The Night He Came Home Again! - A 'Halloween 2018' Review

By

When we first learned that Director: David Gordon Green would be talking over the iconic Halloween franchise, my thoughts could best be described as skeptical at best.  How was the guy that brought us Pineapple Express going to bring Michael Myers home again? Also where did Danny McrBride fit it in? Would Blumhouse and Green do the un-thinkable by allowing McBride to dawn the mask, and having the world famous physical comedian wield who knows what as his weapon of choice? Find out the answer to these, and many other questions after the break in our Halloween review....
