It’s always hard to do a review of an anime movie that’s based on a TV series. These kinds of film tend to work as continuations of the shows they’re based on, and make it difficult to judge it on its own merit for people who may not know what’s going on. FullMetal Alchemist: The Sacred Star of Milos (released by Funimation and animated by Studio Bones) doesn’t try to complicate itself by explaining everything for new people, instead focusing on the strengths in storytelling the show and its original manga (created by Hiromu Arakawa).

It’s time to play the music, it’s time to light the lights. It’s time to meet the Muppets on the Muppet Show tonight. It’s time to put on makeup, it’s time to dress up right.

I’m a big fan of Green Lantern (Deadpool is my #1, but Hal is easily in my top 3), so I already have a fairly strong desire to see this movie succeed. Today’s bump in my excitement comes from the release of a new trailer for the movie, with more of a focus on Hal as a Green Lantern in training. Read the full story

I have been sick (on and off) the last two weeks, so Netflix is becoming one of my good friends.  Last night I was feeling kind of low energy, but I wanted to watch something a bit faster paced.  I know some of you are looking at the title like… seriously??  – I assure you, I am NOT talking about the film co-staring Johnny Depp, though, that was actually a pretty good movie if you haven’t seen it.  But I digress, and this is something I wish to stay on topic for.
