Lego Movie: Is It Worth Your Time?
As a child in the early eighties, I had Legos. At the time, I thought that they were new to everyone, but it turns out that this childhood favorite has been around since the 1930's. The first Legos were created out of wood. Then the toy’s big move to plastic happened in the 1950's and they never looked back. Now, when I was a kid, there was a lot you could do with a pile of Legos, even though I mostly made walls. Anyways, since the 1930's, the Lego brand has exploded into its own universe. Lego has branded video games with its name and most of these games are licensed games from popular movies. And like their “brick and mortar” predecessors, these games are exceptionally well-made. But was that enough? No. After making the successful jump from plastic to digital, Lego went all out creating its very own movie called…you guessed it…The Lego Movie.

Holy Gossip! Does Batman Have a Son?
If you have been living under a rock for the last fifty years or so, you might not have heard of Batman. Shame on you. Let me fill you in. Batman is the most badass comic book superhero to ever be created. Batman has a sidekick and a butler, not because he necessarily needs a sidekick or a butler. That's just how a bat flies.

This year is a Batman jubilee, a 75 years since it had all begun. So I took this opportunity to make a little retrospective of all Batman movies so far. This photo story begins with Lewis Wilson in 1943 and it ends with still unconfirmed Ben Affleck role in 2016. My personal favourite is Christian Bale, who played Batman three times until now. He played in Batman Begins 2005, again in The Dark Knight 2008 and for the third time in The Dark Knight Rises 2012. I also hope that www.batmangamesonly.com site will soon mark its 5-th year anniversary as batman gaming site #1 in USA.

This newest game is a refreshing return to roots after the somewhat mediocre reception of the previous Batman game, Batman Arkham Origins.

Beware the Batman - Cartoon Network has pulled the show from its lineup
This past year saw a new kind of Batman take the cartoon world by its baited bat breath, only to have the taste ripped away like a cruel joke by the Joker. Yes, that's right, I am talking about the new Batman cartoon from the Cartoon Network. This new caped crusader show is called Beware the Batman. It would be understandable right now, if you firmly planted your face into your palm and said “Why in the world would they name their cartoon that?” However, don't let the name get to you, as this is as good a Batman cartoon as you are likely to see.

Batman vs Superman Movie 2016 - Nasty Brawl With Batman Prevailing
Superman is big and there is no doubt about it. But I checked and there is another superhero who is even bigger than Superman. Who is that? You might ask. The answer is simple and it is a name that has scared even the most diehard villain into hiring legions of henchmen for protection. And that name is Batman. Yes, the caped crusader. Some of you might be saying to yourself that there is no way Batman is bigger than Superman, and that Superman would kick Batman's butt. Well, you would be wrong. You don't have to take my word for it, just accept it as fact and let's move on.
