We’ve all at least once seen a comic book movie in our lifetime. You probably chose one to watch with some girl thinking it will be so bad that it will inevitably lead to casual petting out of pure boredom. You’ve probably also noticed that Hollywood producers are really adapting the living shit out of comic books these days, but mind you, the trend isn’t...
Thunda…Thunda…Thundercats, bolt.
No, Thunderbolt. That’s what this is about. Thundercats attack. This thing strikes. Like AC/DC and Marty McFly crankin’ up the Delorean to 88 in 1955. Out of fuel. Out of time.
