[earthboundguythatlikesmother1]

Batman: Wayne Family Adventure is a cute little webcomic series that's just meant to be more relaxed and just overall a slice of life.

I feel like an even more interesting thing about it is that in 2021, at some point it even had a 3 Parter live action mini web series of it that was going to be released on Ismahawks' channel on October in that same year.

They even had the cast which goes as follows:

Jonathan Bentley as Bruce Wayne

Lisa Foiles as Barbara Gordon, aka Oracle

Tim Neff as Jason Todd, aka Red Hood

Peter Sudarso as Tim Drake, aka Red Robin

Meghan Camarena as Stephanie Brown aka Spoiler

Gemma Nguyen as Cassandra Cain aka Orphan

Carter Rockwood as Damien Wayne aka Robin

Du-Shaunt ‘Fik-Shun’ Stegall as Duke Thomas aka Signal

and finally Marcus Weiss as Alfred Pennyworth

Pretty killer cast if I say so myself.

So yeah it honestly seemed like it was already finished and set to go, but there was one problem.

It got cancelled by WB, why? While there's no definite answer there is a theory that this lovely person came up with:

And yeah like it says, any trace of the teaser is all gone, vid is privated most likely will never released, and neither the show will be. I lowkey even feel bad the for the folks working on the show cause it seems like everything that they were working for was all for naught.

While I get that they should've asked for permission, it's lowkey a bummer that it'll never see the light of the day, especially cause I would've been stoked to see a proper Cassandra Cain in live action (looking at you Birds Of Prey).

For now, the most we can look forward about the Batfamily in live action is the upcoming DCU's Brave And The Bold but even I'm not sure about it cause I feel like it's too soon for a batfamily but hey, like I said in my other post, who knows and I might be impressed.

For now tho, let us just continue Wayne Family Adventures as it is, a free webcomic series. Now I feel like drawing Cass ngl.

SYTYCD14 - top 10 perform

So we fiiiiinally found out our top 10. Well, officially. I found a blog that had spoilers and just checked out the list without guilt. All pretty predictable picks.

“The most intense Academy week we’ve ever seen.” Okay Cat’s scriptwriter, sure. We’ve only had two versions of the Academy and one was for kids so I don’t think we can bring out the superlatives yet.

The opening number is ok. Probably nothing will ever top Puttin On The Ritz.

I forgot the judges existed in the last three weeks.

The way the revealed the top ten was very underwhelming so I’ll just get into the dances.

Dassy Lee and Fik-shun - They were slightly out of sync a few times and sometimes you can see that Fik-Shun is sharper than Dassy, but otherwise this is a great number. Dassy has a brilliant personality that shines on stage and is well complemented by Fik-shun’s. Mary says Fik-shun has met his match. Nigel makes a terrible Seoul/soul pun.

Logan Hernandez and Audrey Case (filling in for Allison) - Allison injured a shoulder, but before that, she picked Logan over Zachary Gibson. It’s already Zachary’s second time in the green mile, but Logan has more room to grow on the show I guess. And Zachary is on Cats now anyways. I loved the choreography in this piece by Tyce Diorio.

Chris “Kiki” Nyemchek and Jenna - Way to go Kiki, from nearly not auditioning at all to botching the first academy choreo round to finally being Jenna’s pick over initial hot ticket Konkrete. I suppose ultimately Jenna isn’t as well equipped to help Kevin as she is to help Kiki. The costume team didn’t fit his pants the best, but Kiki looked great. Very clean dancer. I never really thought of this song for a ballroom number but seeing this dance, it just made sense.

Kaylee Mills and Cyrus - Who designed Kaylee’s dress? The shoulder straps are hideous. Choosing someone with a far different style from his is a risk for Cyrus, but I think both Kaylee and Cyrus like the challenge. They can learn from each other. The dance was nice to watch in the moment but maybe not the most memorable this week.

Lex Ishimoto and Gaby - Gaby got some of the most all-rounded dancers on her team during the Academy. Personally I think she’s one of if not the smartest all-star in her pickings. I think it could have gone either way, but I’m not surprised she chose Lex because he got more screentime than Evan. This dance reminded me why I LOVE Anthony Morigerato. It was very charming. I love how there were hints of other styles in there. I have no idea what Mary is saying but I agree with the gist of it - I can see Lex going all the way.

Mark Villaver and Comfort - I had the impression Mark specialised in lyrical hip hop so I was pleasantly surprised to see him have so much swag - especially considering the costume team made him wear an apron cut from a trash bag. Comfort is part of that extremely rare breed of people who can pull off green lipstick.

Koine Iwasaki and Marko - I really loved Marko’s remaining two. Practically speaking, Koine is better height matched. I mean, look at Sophia’s legs. They look longer than Marko himself LOL. This dance and the lighting was gorgeous, but not as gorgeous as Koine’s dress. DON���T MAKE IT AWKWARD NIGEL WHAT THE HECK. Leave the matchmaking to after you retire.

Sydney Tormey and Paul - Why do you waste this couple on Val why why why but at least cha cha is one the styles he is better in. There was one moment where Sydney had to sort of squat and transfer her weight while flipping her hair and/or doing a body wave and it looked pretty awkward. Otherwise it was a good number, but I would remember the other ballroom dance from this week more.

Taylor Sieve and Robert - why is everyone acting so confused about who Taylor is? She got quite a bit of coverage throughout academy week. Unlike Johnathan, who we didn’t see since auditions at all. Easy guess who Robert picked. Wow Travis Wall, way to start a dance, with that drop. This piece was haunting, and the transitions were artfully choreographed. It was nice to watch. But I dunno why Cat said we would cry.

Every time Vanessa says ‘stupendous’ I just cringe.

Robert Green and Jasmine H - Where does Robert get his clothes?????? In case you don’t remember, he is the guy who auditioned in a transparent raincoat thingy and later wore cartoon egg-printed pants during academy. Howard looks like he could be Winn Schott’s taller brother on Supergirl. I don’t know what the point of the red hankerchief is. Also, they were spray dubious looking blue chemicals at each other’s faces!!!?????? Is no one concerned??? But man Robert is entertaining. Jasmine has AMAZING stage presence, but Robert managed to keep my eyes on him.

Before we end we have a top ten + all stars group number by Wade&AmandaRobson and Tony Tester. I couldn’t see what was going on in the first part with the terrible blue lighting, and I don’t really get what was happening even when I could see, but the dance was fascinating to watch and the music was funky.

And that’s it for our first season 14 live show! How do you feel about this season so far? Let free to voice your thoughts in the ask box.

You can see how highly competitive young dancers are.

Live Action Adaptation Of Webtoon’s ‘Batman: Wayne Family Adventures’ Sets Inclusive Cast With Yoshi Sudarso, Peter Sudarso, Gemma Nguyen And D-Shaunt “Fik-Shun” Stegall And More

DC‘s first original story by Webtoon, Batman: Wayne Family Adventures is set to get the live-action treatment — and it is hella inclusive.

Jonathan Bentley is set to star as Bruce Wayne  — which is great news. However, the casting of Yoshi Sudarso (Buffalo Boys, Bullet Train) as Dick Grayson/Nightwing is the first actor of Asian descent to play the character which has been historically portrayed as white. In addition, Peter Sudarso (Supergirl, The Paper Tigers) will play Tim Drake/Red Robin, the second actor to play the character in a live action iteration — and his character is also traditionally white. It’s inclusivity and we love to see it.

The cast also includes Gemma Nguyen (Phantom Breaker) as Cassandra Cain/Orphan, D-Shaunt “Fik-Shun” Stegall (So You Think You Can Dance) as Duke Thomas/Signal, Lisa Foiles (All That, Malcolm in the Middle), as Barbara Gordon/Oracle, Tim Neff (Echo 3, Outpost) as Jason Todd/Red Hood, Meghan Camarena (Power Rangers Hyperforce, Video Game High School) as Stephanie Brown/Spoiler, Carter Rockwood as Damian Wayne/Robin, and Marcus Weiss (Scrubs, Le Rêve) as Alfred Pennyworth.

Hip Hop Nutcracker | Official Trailer | Disney+

RUN DMC's Rev Run brings us along for a hip-hop reimagining of The Nutcracker ballet set in New York City. 

It’s the night of the annual New Year’s Eve Block Party and Maria-Clara’s (Caché Melvin) Mom and Pop (Allison Holker Boss and Stephen “tWitch” Boss) aren’t getting along — and it’s bringing her down. Maria-Clara embarks on a holiday adventure to bring her parents back together, finding help along the way from the magical toymaker, Drosselmeyer (Comfort Fedoke), and the Nutcracker (Du-Shant “Fik-shun” Stegall) who she brings to life. Maria-Clara’s journey takes her from the streets of New York to fantasy worlds where she battles with Mice and Toy Soldiers (Viktor White, BDash, Kevin “Konkrete” Davis), and back in time to the Land of Sweets in order to find the key to unlock her holiday wish. Will it be enough to rekindle her parents’ lost love before the clock strikes midnight?

 Featuring best-in-class dancers Mikhail Baryshnikov, Tiler Peck, KidaTheGreat AKA Kida Burns, the Jabbawockeez as magical snowflakes, and more. The Disney+ Original special “The Hip Hop Nutcracker” is inspired by the live stage phenomenon, created by Jennifer Weber, touring America this holiday season.

Freeform's 31 Nights of Halloween

Freeform’s 31 Nights of Halloween

Halloween is my favorite holiday! I’ve always loved anything creepy, dark and weird. In fact, one of my earliest memories is reading ghost stories as a preschooler. Add in the crinkle of fallen leaves beneath your sneakers, bags of candy you borrow from a little too often before the actual night arrives, killer cosplay (maybe literally) and houses dressed to spooky effect and it’s little wonder I…

World of Dance: the Duels #1

Alright, we’re starting to see more of Jenna. She spoke to all the contestants about their artistic choices and also gave her input.

How the duels work

The highest scorer in each category will pick who they want to face in the duels. The one who chooses dances first and is scored first, then the second dancer performs and is scored. Both scores are revealed together and whoever has the highest score goes through to the next round and the loser is eliminated.

The rankings for Upper category after the qualifying round are:

1. Les Twins 2. Fik-shun 3. Pasion* 4. Nick Daniels 5. Luka and Jennalyn 6. Quick Style 7. DNA 8. Keone and Mari 9. Kyle Van Newkirk* 10. Kings Unite*

For Team Category:

1. Kinjaz 2. Swing Latino 3. Chapkis Dance Family* 4. Super Cr3w 5. Jabbawockeez 6. Ian Eastwood & the Young Lions 7. Royal Flux* 8. Rouge* 9. Miami All Stars 10. Stroll Groove* 11. Rhythmatic*

In Junior category:

1. The Lab 2. Diana Pombo 3. D’Angelo and Amanda 4. Eva Igo 5. Mihacevich Sisters 6. Kyntay* 7. The Posse* 8. Immabeast* 9. Boys of Tenecula* 10. Mini Request*

(contestants marked * are those whose full qualifier dances were not shown)

Got that? Here we go...

Fik-shun vs Nick They skipped over Les Twins this week so we move on to Fik-shun first. Fik-shun picked Nick so they would go soloist against soloist. They also both have a thing for tattered shirts. I just noticed that Nick has really prominent double eyelids that make him look sleepy sometimes. I think Nick has a more immediate “wow” factor because of his flexibility and the acrobatics, but his routine was more similar to his qualifying one, except with more tricks. Also, he always lifts his left leg. And Wicked Games is a nice song but ever since Amy and Travis’ SYTYCD routine it’s been overused in contemporaries. I do like this female version though. Fik-shun’s dance was a little more compact but was very interesting, like when he arched his back on the floor and like used his hand as a lever to shift his body around, and how the last few bars of the routine mirrored the first a bit. Nick - 87.7, Fik-shun - 90.7

Swing Latino vs Miami All Stars Again skipping the #1 team, we pit latin team against latin team. Holy crap! These two teams pulled all the stops. Swing Latino was like a cheerleading team with latin background on steroids. I expected tricks, but NOT LIKE THAT. WHAT DID I EVEN SEE? THAT LAST TRICK??? WHAT?? Miami All Stars went with a swing style item and had really cute costumes. I loved this dance so much more than their qualifier one. I think they matched Swing Latino’s energy, where Swing Latino had every dancer moving all the times, a lot of Miami All Stars’ choreo was 1-2 dancers doing tricks in the front while everyone else was like an ensemble doing simpler group movements at the back. Derek covers his eyes before the scores haha. I get the feel, man. Swing Latino - 91.7, Miami All Stars - [88.3]

Eva Igo vs Kyntay For some reason, Kyntay go first even though Eva picked them...idk. They sound so cute when they say “thank you” together. Anyway, Kyntay are these two girls who are really popular on social media and have performed with Janet Jackson. They’re outfits look amazing! Where can I get one of those tops? I think Eva had a greater frequency of wow moments in her item. That said, I think Kyntay’s dance was choreographed to show more musicality whereas Eva had lots of tricks but I didn’t always felt like they were well connected. The leg lifts got a bit repetitive, but I like how her style doesn’t evolve a lot of wrought angst expressions and throwing limbs around. Kyntay - 82.7, Eva - 89. I don’t think they were THAT far apart.

Quick Style vs Keone and Mari They were the last ones who weren’t picked yet so they were left to duel with each other. These two groups are friends and Keone and Mari were Quick Style’s teachers. Now that they mention that, you can see some similarities - the cleanliness, the sharpness of movement. I dunno how they decided who would go first, but Keone and Mari do. The choreo was really smart, showing disconnect between two people even though they are dancing together. It’s slower but more emotional and deep than their qualifier. They have a smart game plan to up their story telling through each round of competition and I think that’s smart. Quick Style is apparently the “dopest boyband [Derek has] ever seen”. They had a lot precision in this dance, lots of simple but fast moves that created interesting visual effects. I think they have better clenliness and precision than K+M’s qualifying dance because while it was fast, there’s wasn’t too much going on. Keone and Mari - 91.3, Quick Style - 89.3. I’m gonna miss Quick Style, but I agree that K+M had better artistic choices here.

I think there are two more Duels episodes. From the promos, it seems like Chapkis and Immabeast get through (since there are shots of them cheering and their costumes look different). There’s DNA against Luka and Jennalyn and Nyle (the tapper) against Les Twins - which seems like an interesting pick on the twins’ part. If anyone noticed anything else do let me know! Just pop in the inbox.
