Finaldasa Says: Comic Con is upon us and the sheer weight of random nerd news popping up on both ComicVine and here on Screened has been too much for me to keep up with. Big thank you to Joey and Rorie working hard down and San Diego (and all of Whiskey Media down there). Meanwhile back on home base, you guys and gals have been upping the nerd quotient probably thanks to Harry Potter coming out the week before Captain America does. Either way let's get down to Gundams, a sprinkle of Emma Stone, and the epic continuation of a pony obsession.
Community Showcase
User Reviews:
- Artie double dosed on nerd with a Captain America and Deathly Hallows Part 2 review. He also reviewed a small release Another Earth.
- One crimsonavenger becomes Rorie's best friend and reviews Easy A. But he didn't stop there! Pleasing Scancase by reviewing On Her Majesty's Secret Service and earning his nerd card with a Captain America: The First Avenger reveiw.
- Moderator pat4327 wrote a review of The Change-Up. (Note from Pat: this is the first review I've written, so any feedback you guys give is greatly appreciated!) Despite the plethora of poop and taint jokes, the movie isn't good. The review, however, is literally the best thing I have ever read in my life. I, FinalDasa, believe it may be the greatest collection of electronic words ever compiled by one man.
- MrMazz is on a mission, should he choose to accept it, and reviews Mission Impossible, Mission Impossible II, and Captain America:The First Avenger.
Wiki Edits:
- Did you know The Lone Ranger is being remade? crimsonavenger did and did some excellent work on its page.
- Pat did some Gundam stuff...woo: Escape from Luna II, Re-Entry to Earth, White Base, Argama, Musai, Salamis, Magellan, Jupitris, Dogosse Gier, Alexandria, Radish, Audhumla, La Vie en Rose, Gwadan, Side 7, Side 3, Luna II, Jaburo, A Baoa Qu, Solomon, Side 5, Odessa, Anaheim Electronics, Zeon, Earth Federation, AEUG, Londo Bell, Karaba, and Titans. Ok so that's impressive.
- User skidd totally isn't stalking Carey Mulligan by writing up her page, and her movie Never Let Me Go, and her character Kathy. Someone call his parole officer.
- damnitsted dabbles this week adding the movie The Motel and updating a few episodes of Covert Affairs.
- Count_Zero went and found what I assume to be a bad horror film and gave Boogeyman 3 and commendable page.
- Paulrus never lets you pony freaks down finally finishing up his season one write up of My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic. He also did work on Princess Luna, Equestria, Ponyville, Friendship is Magic pt. 1, and Friendship is Magic pt. 2.
- A special mention goes to Fitzquaid who has been helping us find the many duplicate pages in our wiki, big thanks! :D

Hey, I Did Good Stuff Too!
Want to get your content featured in the future? Well, first off, make sure it's top-notch. If you're making a user review or editing the wiki, be sure to use the image tools to throw in some pictures or videos or bullet points and spice it up a bit! Ensure that it's all well-written (maybe have another user edit it for you?) and free of misspellings.
If you want to submit something for next week's list, you can do so via this thread in our Editing and Tools forum! We are virile and our stamina is unmatched, and yet the site is a bit too big for us to find all the cool content that you guys rock out every week. But if you post in that thread, it'll be a lot easier for us to make sure that we have your nominations all in a line. As always, a big shoutout to everyone else who nominates stuff for these posts.
It's especially welcome if you want to nominate awesome content from another user, so please do nominate away! (And if you ever send something to us and it's not featured in the community showcase, PM a mod or Rorie and we'll try to sneak it in.).
that cat dosen't like dem apples
that video proves that kittens >>>> pups
I should make that my tagline
So my pony contributions trot in the shade.
Shade..... God, doesn't that sound good right now.
Nice stuff this week. I bet my dad will be pleased to hear about the Lone Ranger. Taking a break this week too. Maybe.
Wow, isn't FinalDasa nice for saying all that nice stuff about my review? It's almost like I vandalized his article and wrote it myself. Almost...

@pat4327: My opinion was horribly edited. Fox News would be proud with all these lies.
@finaldasa: You accusing me of something, boy?
Not that I mind Pony (far from it!), but it's starting to look like it's following me around now. I hear Lauren Faust's been put onto another old Hasbro property (though I can't remember what), so I wonder if that will get any brony love - but I haven't seen any PPG or Foster's interest recently. Oh and I guess Gundam is cool too, or something.
Great stuff as always guys!
