The History of the Bat-Suit

How well do you know your Batmans? For sure, comic book enthusiasts are already spewing out facts and trivia showcasing their knowledge. And of course, the bat-suit will be mentioned in there more than once. I honestly wouldn’t be able to say much on this topic, but lucky for people like me, Ben Moore of Screen Rant has created an infographic detailing every single significant bat-suit that has existed. Take note of the qualifier “significant”, as hardcore Batman fans might take one look at the infographic and complain that there are some bat-suits missing. Also, the bat-suits that you find in the infographic are based on comic books, TV, movies, Read more »

Superhero Color Guide

I have never been a big comic book reader, and I am grateful for the movies that have brought superheroes to life for me. I know, hardcore comic book fans are probably shaking their heads right about now.

This girl has a lot to learn when it comes to superheroes, and what better way to start than to become familiar with their colors? Colors are important, not only in Read more »

Still Addicted to Angry Birds?

Everywhere I go these days, I see something related to Angry Birds. To be honest, I think that the hype has outlived its use a long time ago. However, entrepreneurs are still jumping on the Angry Birds bandwagon. I have seen bags, hats, plushies, pillows, shirts, key rings, and all sorts of other merchandise with the Angry Birds characters in them. Perhaps it is an indication that a good number of people still have an Angry Birds addiction. Perhaps it’s just trying to milk the brand for what it’s worth. In any case, if you are still one of those of who have an Angry Birds addiction, then you will Read more »

Your Guide to Game of Thrones Infographics

So it seems that HBO has made the right decision to take on Game of Thrones. In spite of the criticism that the show has received, it looks like a lot of people are getting into the series. Even those who have not read the book are trying out the TV series and are now looking into the book series as well. Remember that NYT review that got me all riled up some weeks ago? If there is one thing that I agree with, it is the fact that there is a host of characters in the story. And yes, you do have to pay attention to keep track of Read more »

Happy National Margarita Day!

Citizens of Margaritaville, it is your day today! February 22 has been deemed as National Margarita Day, and you can celebrate with all the margaritas that you can drink. Margarita is the most popular tequila-based cocktail in the United States today, and I would not be surprised if the same can be said in other countries. If you don’t already know, a classic margarita is made with tequila, triple sec, and lime juice. The difference lies in the proportions of the ingredients, and some bartenders will add their own twists to the drink. Have you ever wondered who invented this drink? According to legend, in 1948, Margarita Sames was hosting Read more »
