Batman: Arkham Knight, ToyCon 2015, and ending June 2015 right...

So... June ends and I return to this blog as Batman fever goes on strong once more...

It's been a LONG TIME since I've written something in this personal blog of mine (but you can still follow my daily posts at PopCultureCrusader), but I've been preoccupied... ESPECIALLY with a certain game that came out one week ago and literally convinced me to pick up a Playstation 4 FINALLY.

Naturally, I just had to get the Limited Edition "Batman: Arkham Knight" bundle edition, with a nice and sweet Batman "Steel Gray" custom decal look for the console. I'm currently busy playing the game and there's PLENTY of ground to explore and cover!

Thanks to the awesome "Share" feature of the PS4, I can now share pics and videos of my gameplay, such as this one where I test out the new "Fear Takedown" maneuver for Batman in the game!



Also, a brief recap of the month's activities is in order.

TOYCON 2015 - Literally the BIGGEST and FUNNEST con I've attended and had this year so far besides Nexcon! Attending all three days, it saw the debut of my "Kung Fury" cosplay (WATCH THE MOVIE HERE), as well as reprisals of Arrow and Batman! In fact, Justice PH celebrates its 5th anniversary this year, and the team was well represented!

And now as we enter July... What else can happen? We'll just have to wait and see! I'll be delivering more justice via Arkham Knight! See you around, peeps!

The Timzster V-Logs Episode 1 - Welcome to the V-Log!

Since I haven't updated for a LONG TIME, I've decided to try something different...

Hi Guys! Welcome to this Writer, Multimedia Artist, Collector, and Cosplayer's new Vlog Series!

After much consideration and deliberation, I decided to go and make it. Welcome to the first episode - where I pretty much just talk about anything that floats my boat about popculturedom and hobbies... And oh of course, Batman!XD

Seriously though, this episode tackles more of getting some new sweet New 52 Batman wear, as well as some comic hauls from this month of March that include Batman: Arkham Knight #1 from DC Comics and the new Spider-Gwen ongoing series from Marvel!

Then, it's plugging the new "World of DC PH" events hitting this coming April 18 to celebrate the worldwide celebration of DC Comics' 80th Anniversary, the Philippines included!

And here's my very first V-Log Entry Episode:


Enjoy the watch! More to come soon! ;)

Movie Review: American Sniper

My second entry to 2015 comes with much enthusiasm for the year's slate of Hollywood films - There's SO MUCH GOOD MOVIES to look forward to later this year, and we're getting a sampling of them already in just the first month alone. That's pretty much a good indicator of just how much positive vibes I have for sure hit blockbuster flicks like Avengers: Age of Ultron, Star Wars Episode VII: The Force Awakens, and plenty more... But we also have to take in the serious pieces, comedies, and biographical pictures that will certainly be coming our way as well as the year rolls onward.

However, I'd be hard-pressed to find something that's as awe-inspiring, bold, and captivating as "American Sniper" - the brand new film directed by Clint Eastwood that serves as the official biographical war drama pic that tells the life of Chris Kyle - United States Navy SEALS soldier, father, husband, and the MOST LETHAL SNIPER IN US MILITARY HISTORY to date.

Here's a review for the film just before the month ends, and just on its second week in cinemas to date. Special thanks goes to Warner Bros. PH for the screening earlier this January!
