Jeb Bush Thinks Melissa Benoist Is Hot

I don't normally agree with a lot of politicians, but I'm going to have to agree with Jeb on this one. Melissa is a fine looking woman. I watched the series premiere of Supergirl last night and thought the pilot episode was well done. Hoping CBS gives this show a chance. Great to see the minor DC characters getting some attention for a change. From my understanding, Melissa seemed like she had a good sense of humor towards Jeb's comments about her. She seems like a pretty cool woman. The show seems like a throwback towards the 1970's Lynda Carter Wonder Woman TV series mixed in with a little 1970's The Bionic Woman and Lois & Clark The New Adventures Of Superman from the 1990's which were great shows and still hold up to this day. Anyway, that's all I have to say about this subject. Until next time, keep 'em flying and behave yourselves out there, 'later.

Star Wars Battlefront Characters

These are three of the models used for the new Star Wars Battlefront video game. The rendering of these characters is really impressive. Thinking Disney/Lucasfilm should use the Battlefront Han Solo for an animated Han Solo film. Bring in Dave Collins who portrayed Solo in the Smuggler's Gambit and Smuggler's Bounty audio dramas to voice the Han Solo character. When I saw these images posted on Facebook a little while ago, I thought these were photos of Harrison Ford, Carrie Fisher, etc. That's pretty much it for this edition of 'The Fanboy Newsdesk Blog'. Until next time, behave yourselves.

ROM Spaceknight Miniseries Comic Coming in 2016

IDW Comics are bringing everyone's favorite spaceknight ROM back to comics in 2016 in the form of a miniseries. For those who are unfamiliar with the character, ROM was introduced in 1979 as an electronic action figure by Parker Brothers which was equipped with a neutralizer gun along with a couple of other accessories which when plugged into the figure would light up and make sounds. The eyes on the figure would also light up. Marvel Comics Group had the comics license. The ROM comic book series ran for 75 issues and was actually more of a success than the toyline it was based on. I'm looking forward to seeing what IDW has planned for the character. It's also been reported that IDW has also secured the comics license for the iconic Micronauts franchise. More on that later. Until next time, behave yourselves. 'Later.

Michael B. Jordan Cast As Boba Fett?

Actor Michael B. Jordan('Red Tails', 'The Fantastic Four', and the upcoming 'Rocky' spinoff 'Creed') is rumored to be under consideration by Disney and Lucasfilm to portray bounty hunter Boba Fett in an upcoming Star Wars spinoff film. Uh, from my understanding, Boba Fett was introduced in Star Wars Episode II Attack Of the Clones as an unaltered clone of bounty hunter Jango Fett who was white. How would this make sense unless the plan is to retcon the events of AOTC. Personally, I'd rather see Daniel Logan come back as the adult Boba Fett if he's interested in doing so. Just a thought. Anyway, that's it for this blog. As always, thanks for taking the time to read my ramblings and behave yourselves. 'Later.

Classic Saturday Morning TV

Really miss the old Saturday morning blocks of programming the networks used to broadcast. Now it's nothing but these goofy E/I programs. Cartoon Network programs cartoons, but that doesn't really cut it. Thinking it's time for Antenna TV and Me-TV to step it up and add blocks of classic Saturday morning programs to their schedules for those of us who grew up with those shows when they were originally broadcast on ABC, NBC, and CBS and for those people of my generation who may want to pass those memories of getting up early on Saturday mornings onto their kids and for some, their grandkids. Anyway, I just wanted to get this off my chest. Thanks for taking the time to read my rambling. Until next time, behave yourselves. 'Later.

10 Years Of Serenity

On September 30, 2005 Universal Studios released 'Serenity', a feature film based on Joss Whedon's short-lived TV series 'Firefly' which was broadcast on FOX during the 2002-03 season. 13 episodes were produced for the series, but only 12 were actually broadcast. FOX also made the mistake of broadcasting several episodes out of order, including the 2 hour pilot which was broadcast as the series finale when FOX pulled the plug. The feature film gave the series enough closure, but I'm hoping Joss will be getting back into writing, directing, and producing original projects now that his time in the Marvel Cinematic Universe(MCU) is behind him. Great to see that Nathan Fillion(Captain Malcom Reynolds) has managed to find further success in the ABC series 'Castle' which is another great show, BTW. Well, that's about it for this blog. 'Til next time, behave yourselves. 'Later.
