Looks Like We Have Elektra Joining "Marvel's Daredevil" Season 2.

7:04:00 PM
Élodie Yung has been cast as Elektra for Netflix "Marvel’s Daredevil”.



This makes me sooooo happy! First off, I was very pleased with Marvel's Daredevil season one which already has me excited and anxiously waiting for season 2. Secondly, Elektra?! Fantastic! 

You may know Elodie Yung from “G.I. Joe: Retaliation,” or “District 13: Ultimatum” I have a feeling she's going to crush this role. Also to be frank, I'm happy with the resemblance she has with the way the comic book character has been illustrated. 

Elektra is a sexy, mysterious, hot lady and a Daredevil fan favorite. Her and Matt Murdock have quite the history together and I can't wait to see how their romance and chemistry will come to life in season 2. I think it will be perfection. 


“After a worldwide search, we found in Elodie the perfect actress to embody both Elektra’s impressive and deadly physicality, as well as her psychological complexity,” said Executive Producer and Head of Marvel Television, Jeph Loeb. “Paired with Charlie as Matt Murdock, the two will bring one of the most beloved and tumultuous comic book relationships to life with all the accompanying sparks and spectacular action sequences the show is known for.” 

Who else is hype? I think I foresee a lot more Elektra cosplay than usual coming soon. Who knows, maybe even I'll join the party ;-)

Netflix Favorites For April 2015.

11:29:00 PM
Because everyone needs a movie night...


I was roaming Netflix the other day and bumped into some pretty awesome movies that brought back great memories... you know, the kind of film you just always remember. 

Anyway I thought I'd make a short list of some recommendations I had for this month just in case you haven't watched them already. 


1) The Devil's Rejects - House of 1,000 Corpse to be continued... and then you have THIS. I'm actually a fan of most Rob Zombie Films (some are even too intense for me). If sick, twisted and dark horror is something you're into, than this is for you! Plus who doesn't love lil ol' Sheri Moon Zombie as 'Baby'? "Chinese, Japanese, dirty knees, look at these!"


 2) Bebe's Kids- When I was younger I watched this movie time after time after time. Robin Falls in love with Jamika but he was to deal with her crazy ass 4 kids. It's a really cute classic. You have to watch this movie at least once in your life. Bebe's kids don't die, they multiply!


 3)Don't Be a Menace to South Central While Drinking Your Juice in the Hood- Hahaha this movie is just too much. I believe this was the Waynes Brothers first parody movie. If you have even one ounce of 'Hood' in you, street smarts, or just enjoy a urban comedy that makes fun of gangs and racial statistics, than this is for you. "Recruiter: Well, I see your hobbies include "drinkin', smokin' weed, and all types of ill shit."


 4)Natural Born Killers- Ummm can you say relationship goals? One of my favorites from Quentin Tarantino. But really, Mickey and Mallory Knox are crazy twisted in love and take on the road and a life of crime. This movie is magic. "You know the only thing that kills the demon... is love". 


5)Cujo- Don't let the Netflix rating fool you. This is a cult classic based on a Stephen King novel. Imagine your cute lil doggy, you know, mans best friend and all going bat-shit crazy? I never thought I could be scared of a dog. "Terror has a new name".


 6)Pulp Fiction- Another work of art by Quentin Tarantino. Also, the movie that first got me to love Uma Thurman. It's like a game of connect the dots all the way through. "And you will know I AM THE LORD when I lay my vengeance upon you" 


 7) Cool World- Even though I still like Who Framed Roger Rabbit more... Cool World is still a must see just because. Reasons I can't explain... you just have to watch it once in your lifetime. It's Brad Pitt and cartoons, what do you have to lose. Plus Holli Would voiced by Kim Basinger is a total fox. Sneaky and hot. 

Anyways, I hope you enjoyed this short list and find something you'll enjoy in it. Toodles!

DareDevil On Netflix. Let Us Binge!

7:44:00 PM
The Real Question Is Who Hasn't Been Binging On Marvel Comics DareDevil This Weekend?!


Ok guys so I'm only on like episode 5 right now but so far so great! Am I right? I don't want to give too much away but I'm really enjoying the way the story is unravelling and I love how detailed the fight scenes. They're doing a great job at showing how DareDevil's other senses (besides sight obviously) are so heightened. The way he could tell when a weapon is about to hit him or when someones out in the hallway before they even enter (he could smell them)... so many small details are making this show fantastic to me. 

I'm very much enjoying it. Charlie Cox is doing a stellar job and I'm enjoying the rest of the cast too. Honestly, I didn't know what to expect when I heard about this show at first... I was never huge on DareDevil. Needless to say I am very pleasantly surprised. 

What do you guys think about the show so far? Drop a comment.

Orange Is The New Black Season 3 Trailer.

12:30:00 PM
One Of Our Favorite Women's Prison Shows Is Back! 

The Orange Is The New Black season 3 trailer has finally dropped. I don't know about you guys but I was a BIG Fan of season 1 and season 2 had me feeling blahhh... It was ok. 




The Season 3 trailer looks a little more promising and I'm super happy with the return of Alex Vause (Laura Prepon). I feel like the lack of her in season 2 was one of the reasons I didn't enjoy it as much. I wonder what will happen to her and Piper (Taylor Schilling) in season 3 and if Piper has anything to do with Alex being back in jail. 

Anyway, the trailer looks like they'll be plenty on drama and I can't wait for season 3 to drop on Netflix. 



On another note, after I was a bit disappointed about season 2 I discovered Wentworth on Netflix. An Aussie women's prison show similar to 'Orange Is The New Black'. In a lot of aspects I like Wentworth more than Orange Is The New Black... It's a bit more rough and realistic in my opinion. If you have Netflix, you can check out the first 2 seasons of Wentworth HERE.  



At the end of the day I love both shows, cheers!

OMG! Netflix Will Be Producing "A Series of Unfortunate Events" Lemony Snicket Books Into A Show!

2:40:00 PM


I was very excited today when I heard that Netflix has purchased the rights to produce a series based off of “A Series of Unfortunate Events” by Lemony Snicket. I fell in love with the movie starring Jim Carey in 2004. I was so smitten with the movie that my brother gifted me with all the books!

The series will be a Netflix production in association with Paramount Television. While some people are overly excited about the news, some think it's a risk and a bad idea for Netflix... but you know what I say?

No Risk, No Reward!

If you haven't read the books, I recommend you get familiar with them (more than 65 million copies sold worldwide!). You can find some awesome deals on the whole collection on Amazon like this one HERE or if you get the books on Kindle it's crazy affordable too.

The books revolve around the story of the orphaned Baudelaire children (Violet, Klaus and Sunny Baudelaire) who often face off with the evil Count Olaf. The children's main mission is to discover the secret of their parents death. You really do fall in love with the children and their individual characteristics... It's endearing, funny, magical, and dark. You just don't find those qualities in many books the way you do in this series.



“On the search for fantastic material that appeals to both parents and kids, the first stop for generations of readers is ‘A Series of Unfortunate Events,'” said Cindy Holland, VP of original content for Netflix. “The world created by Lemony Snicket is unique, darkly funny, and relatable. We can’t wait to bring it to life for Netflix members.” 

“I can’t believe it,” Mr. Snicket said, from an undisclosed location. “After years of providing top-quality entertainment on demand, Netflix is risking its reputation and its success by associating itself with my dismaying and upsetting books. 

*Snicket is the pen name of author Daniel Handler*


So what do you all think? Will it be a hit or miss? I personally think it will be a nice, new and refreshing series for Netflix, different than anything they have. A breath of fresh air! It will be great for drawing in families and I also believe many adults will be enticed by the show too because of the classic books.
