Last Week in Pop Culture 026, 2nd week of March 2019

So many news ...

Here's my accumulated news list for last week that I used for references for this post.

00. In memoriam: U.S. Olympic medalist Kelly Catlin dies at age 23

{November 03rd, 1995 - March 08th, 2019}.

01. Aladdin's full trailer [May 24th]

Now that's more like it! Now you can see how the whole feature would be, with the original songs, Bollywood/Arabic vibes and Genie's antics!

-

02. Avengers Endgame's second trailer [April 26th]

love the whole dreary vibe! Appreciate it not giving away anything at all.

07. James Gunn reinstated as Guardians of the Galaxy 3 director!

Really?! This isn't an April's Fool joke! Finally! He's now doing works for both!.

-------

08. Lilly Singh taking over for Carson Daly with new NBC late night series

While the late night scene is only now begin to diversify, I am happy to see an Indian Canadian host to represent a whole new demography. After Bo Burnham last year and Joe Penna this year excelling in their directing endeavours, she is another Youtuber that is now representing the (controversial?) platform in another medium. She'll do well IMO!

10. Marvel Studios producing What If animated series for Disney+

After the Offenders, I am so happy they are being more daring and ambitious in their projects, albeit in animations. If any of these shows gain traction, you won't be wrong to guess they would be adapted into a full feature ala Spider-Verse or maybe even adapted into live action! I can only hope!
