Thor: The Dark World Trailer
As I mentioned before on here, Spider-Man was my favorite Marvel character and I would pick up other books randomly. I never bought a Thor book, but I was aware of him by cross-overs and other guest appearances. I wasn't expecting much from the first movie, but I liked the story and his introduction to those that may have not known about him. While the movie wasn't the best from the Phase 1 series, it did establish his role in the universe and I think the Avengers movie made people go back and give his stand alone movie another viewing.
With Thor: The Dark World coming to theaters this fall (November 8, 2013) I think we will see a bigger world than was shown previously and maybe get a better story this time around. What the trailer below and share your opinions with us.

Man of Steel Trailer
I am a fan of the original Superman movies. I still remember the tagline of the first movie "You will believe a man can fly!" I feel that the original movie started off kind of slow, but watching it today, I love the build up to him fulfilling his destiny. All the movies were great except for part 4 and part 3 was a little annoying. While many people panned Bryan Singer's take on the classic story, I enjoyed the movie, but felt it did have a few flaws. Now we have Zach Snyder giving us a new version of Superman, and with Christopher Nolan producing this movie, I think this might be the Superman movie that will put our faith back into the man of steel.

Tears of a Clown
Today while going through names with my wife about what to name our mystery kid, (we are waiting for the delivery date to find out the sex) I started crying. Now this wasn't a "I stubbed my toe and I think I broke it" cry, this was more of a "I am having a second kid and it's finally hitting me" cry. Earlier this month I wrote about how I was freaking out about having another child, but tonight something hit me. Something that made me so happy and sad at the same time.

The Pile Just Keeps Growing.
With raising a 3 year old, being a teacher and preparing for a second child in April my gaming time has pretty much gone out the window. Although I try to make time to get in a few games, my pile just keeps growing. Here are a few shots of the games that are piling up. Also, add to this that I haven't picked up my Gears of War: Judgement yet and Bioshock Infinite comes out next week. One good thing is that I am on Spring Break next week, so hopefully I will be able to knock a few of the games of the pile.
| The few games that I have played in this pile are Ni No Kuni, Far Cry 3, Dishonored, Nike+ Kinect Training and the Sesame Street Season 1. |
| As much as I love the comic and TV show, I have yet to play this game. |

The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey Blu-Ray Combo Giveaway.
Remember the first time you saw The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring and though to yourself, "It would be cool if they can go back and make The Hobbit into a movie". Well, you were not the only one. Peter Jackson has returned to the beginning and has given his fans something that they have been waiting for and has broken this story down into a trilogy too. The first in this series The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey is being released on Blu-Ray and DVD this Tuesday March 19 and Fandads is giving away one Blu-Ray/DVD combo to one of our lucky readers.
(Disclosure: This is not a paid post and the Blu-Ray Combo will be provided by Warner Bros.)
Baby Number Two is On the Way, So Why am I Freaking Out!
Lately I have been writing about how my wife and I are expecting our second child in April and how our little girl is excited about having a new brother or sister (we're not finding out the sex of the baby), but while I am confident and all smiles on the outside, inside I am freaking the F*@k out.
