The Geekly Forecast is a weekly preview of all the neat stuff coming to screens, stores, and living rooms near you!
Recommendations:
TV: It might sound cheesy, but we are really excited for America’s Best Dance Crew making a comeback. Also, Ms. Lauryn Hill will be performing on Jimmy Fallon this Thursday.
Music: You should never get Insane Clown Posse. Try Joss Stone instead. Pretend it is 2009.
Netflix: Butterfly in the Sky! Reading Rainbow Volume 1 can be enjoyed by kids, but mostly 20 and 30-somethings.
Movies: Mission Impossible: Rogue Nation will be the best Mission Impossible film of the franchise.
DVD: You know, we are a comic book site. So we will of course suggest Justice League: Gods and Monsters.
