Well, in just a couple of days, the moment many of us have been waiting our entire lives for will finally arrive when the Justice League movie debuts in cinemas. Uniting the likes of Batman, Superman, Wonder Woman, Cyborg, Aquaman and the Flash for the first time on the big screen, it comes as a surprise to none why anticipation levels are so high - and why there are those who can't help but compile their wishlists for a potential sequel, the cast included.
Each year, the fine folks at Warner Bros. Animation serve up a handful of films based on DC properties and, more often than not, they knock it out of the park. Not only that, but a significant portion of the fan base argues that they’re superior to what’s offered in the live action realm. And, to be completely honest, I have to concede in most cases.
These days, people don’t take comic book deaths seriously – and there’s a reason for that. Basically, pretty much any hero or villain to have bitten to the dust returns at some point, usually within a few years when it comes to deaths that have occurred in this decade. Still, there are a few to never have been undone or have stuck for quite some time.
While it's probably safe to say that we're all unbelievably pumped for this weekend's release of the Justice League movie, it's interesting to note that some other DC trivia is being brought to light that's entirely separate from the big team-up flick. Sure, it came to us via the usual press rounds that Ben Affleck must make, but this factoid is something that we won't soon forget.
To this day, there are a handful of iconic roles associated with the immortal Arnold Schwarzenegger, the most recognizable (arguably) of those being the T-800. Having successfully catapulted the bodybuilder-turned-actor’s career into the stratosphere with 1984’s The Terminator, director James Cameron came back for another round in 1991 with Terminator 2: Judgement Day, sparking endless debate amongst the geek community in the time since as to which film is superior. Personally, I lean toward the original, but appreciate the merits of both.
If anything, November 2017 is going to be a month for DC fans to remember. Not only do we have Justice League arriving in theaters this weekend, but, in just two short weeks, The CW will be rolling out their next massive Arrowverse crossover, “Crisis on Earth-X.”
Now that Justice League‘s theatrical release is merely days away, it’s only expected that we wake up to find new goodies greeting us each morning throughout the week. Heck, it's early in the day and the latest buzz is already going around.

Having been a beloved comic book property for decades before becoming a darling among animation lovers beginning in 2003, one could say that the Teen Titans have been overdue for a live action adaptation for quite some time. Well, actually, they were set to headline their own movie with a theatrical release projected for 2010, but that endeavor was one of many unfortunately killed by the writers’ strike.
Despite unfortunately having his future in the video game world from which he originated in limbo, it turns out that us fans of Agent 47 actually have something to look forward to in the not too distant future. We say that because, believe it or not, our favorite bald contract killer is slated to carry out his next mission via a new Hitman series set to debut on a popular streaming service.
