As big as an Apple fanboy as I am, I would immediately drop my iPhone in favor of this fully customizable phone concept! Being able to upgrade your phone without having to shell out an enormous amount of money and being stuck to a phone contract? Yes please!!

The World is Laughing a Bit Less

I realize that this post is a few days late, but despite that, I had to share my thoughts on the tragic passing of Robin Williams. As fans, we only get to know or see what celebrities allow us to see, whether it's good or bad. We as fans always knew Mr. Williams as a funny man. Able to mimic 1000 voices, and bring hilarity to almost any film he was in. He also surprised us with his acting depth in roles such as "Good Will Hunting" and "Patch Adams". But what we didn't know, and what we're barely finding out after his passing, is how genuinely good of a person Mr. Williams was. I read a story of how he visited Christopher Reeves after his debilitating accident that left him a quadriplegic and how he was able to bring laughter in one of Mr. Reeves' lowest moments. Similar stories have surfaced that show his kindheartedness. And just how we didn't see these great acts, we were not aware of his personal struggles; struggles that would ultimately cause him to take his life. I used to be of the mindset that suicide was a cop-out. It was a selfish act that brought pain and confusion to others that stayed behind. However, as of late and after hearing of Mr. William's struggles, I realize that it's not so black and white. Depression, anxiety, and mental illness is a terrible thing that can make one feel as if one's world is ALREADY over. So if you're reading this, and you are struggling with negative thoughts, please seek help. Don't let yourself reach the point to where you see no other way out.

I really hope this gets made! I was so excited when Ryan Reynolds was orignally cast as Wade Wilson in the X-Men Origins: Wolverine film, buuuuut we all know how that turned out (Not well in case you're wondering).  

I hope that Ryan Reynolds can get another chance to redeem the character with this type of portrayal of Deadpool!

Brandon Routh Cast as The Atom on "Arrow" - Comic Book Resources

Brandon Routh Cast as The Atom on Arrow - Brandon Routh, star of Superman Returns, has been cast as Dr. Ray Palmer, better known as The Atom, on the CW's Arrow.

As a big fan of Arrow, I'm always looking forward to what's in store for them in the future! As much flack as Superman Returns gets, I loved Brandon Routh's portrayal as Superman and totally looking forward to his take of Ray Palmer in the "Arrowverse"!!
