Warning, Incoming Game

Now if you don't know what this means, then I'm ashamed of you. Reboot was one of the best shows on Toonami from 1994-2001 (it's hard for me to believe that it was really on for 6 years) and was also made by Canadian company Mainframe Entertainment (makers of Beast Wars). All you DBZ fans don't come whining to me here about how it was so good because I will have no sympathy while shooting you down. ReBoot was a CG show about the characters inside a computer and what would happen to them when someone played a video game. The main characters were Bob (Guardian #452), Dot Matrix (who for some reason owns a diner inside the computer), Enzo Matrix (Dot's little brother) and his dog Frisket, Phong (the old philosophical advisor to Bob), AndrAIa (a game sprite that is later Enzo's gf), and Mouse (originally bad and then changes sides to help Dot and Enzo). The main bad guys are Megabyte and Hexadecimal who were as corny as 90's cartoons could make them. This trailer makes me remember how good and bad 90's cartoons could be at the same time. It makes me want to see if Netflix has Reboot on their "Watch it Instantly" list, even though I seriously doubt it.

Since the movie is still in production, there's not too much info I can get about it other than the fact that it's supposed to be a trilogy of films and that it's due to come out in 2010. Also if you want proof that this teaser isn't just a fan-made trailer to get people excited for no reason head over to Rainmaker's site.

One of the only good Superbowl Commercials

By now you've hopefully seen the official Transformers 2: Revenge of the Fallen preview that premiered during the Superbowl. The high quality version is pretty amazing looking, even though not much of the actual plot of the movie is given away. I think I mentioned awhile back that there was a ring on Megan Fox's finger and there's a close up shot of it now (at about 17s in) as she's clutching her hand to her mouth. This means that Sam and Mikaela are most likely engaged *vomit*. Anyway, it looks like that army guy from the first movie is returning and there's also a random guy standing next to Mikaela while she's screaming "SAM!" I found something odd on imdb though. Jazz appears to be back even though he was "killed" in the first movie. He is being voiced by Darius McCrary again so I'm not sure if he's really coming back or if imdb is just being crazy and forgot he died. I guess it is called "Revenge of the Fallen" so it's possible Jazz comes back somehow since I'm sure that Megatron will also make a reappearance because every transformers fan knows that Megatron never stays dead.

But, the good news is that there is a really cool cat-looking transformer (around 10s in) in the trailer that's like leaping/stalking through the water. It's probably Ravage seeing as how his form was a black panther in Beast Wars. Hopefully Ravage will be somewhat of a bounty hunter like he was in Beast Wars. That would make the movie very entertaining, and it would make a lot of sense since he came after Megatron in Beast Wars. Currently Transformers 2 scheduled for release on June 26, so I'm sure more and more news about it will be leaking out now that it's only about 4 months away.
