There. Now this thread has a point. Oh, and hi!
New trailer:
Problem is, every shooter had their own unique motive. To pinpoint every single issue with these people will take too damn long. There isn't really one general reason for what they do (and no, I don't find blaming them all on mental illness to be a good excuse at all). Hell, at this point, I honestly wouldn't be surprised if a guy started a shooting just because he stubbed his toe. Now personally, I don't think having stricter gun laws will eliminate gun crimes 100%, but I'll gladly take slowing them down over doing absolutely nothing.
Bumping this thread, as the first "actual" trailer has been released: From the comments I've read from fans of the series, the movie looks promising. And I do think it looks decent. Movie is now scheduled to be released April 29, 2016.
~Tokyo Harbor~ "Well, we need your approval," Pacha told Don, "There's a good chance we might find a potion to turn Kuzco back into a human over at his ex-secretary's penthouse." "We got all the supplies we need to break in," Kuzco added, "But we just need to make sure it's okay with you." ----------------------------------------------------------- ~Nintendo High School: Pokemon Battling Classroom~ "Go ahead, Vulpix," Professor Oak told the Pokemon, kneeling down and patting her head, "Hermione just wants to help you. Trust me. I'm sure once you get to know her, you'll feel much better about yourself." ------------------------------------------------------------ ~Nintendo High School: Cafeteria~ "Serena Tsukino... I LOVE THAT NAME!" Star ecstatically replied, "And I am Star Butterfly, the new foreign exchange student, and an independent woman with fists like hammers! Ooh, and you got your own little posse too. I wish I had a posse of my own back on Mewni. Posse... such a strange word... posse..." ---------------------------------------------------------------- ~Tokyo's Toshima District - Abandoned Building~ As Skye, Shining Armor, and Alan slowly went up the stairs and reached the 7th floor, the trio heard footsteps and voices from one of the doors. As the three nodded to each other silently, Alan slowly approached the door, and kicked it open, noticing a bunch of armed men looking at him. "Hey guys, mind if we crash this party?" Alan asked as he shot two of the armed men with his night-night pistol before rushing to a nearby column for cover. The armed men then began shooting at the trio with their rifles, with Shining Armor and Skye quickly taking cover behind a broken table. "What's the plan?!" Skye asked Shining Armor as she alternated between trying to shoot some of the armed men with her night-night pistol and taking cover. "Well, if I had to guess... just try to survive!" Shining Armor replied as he too alternated between shooting at the enemy with his night-night pistol and taking cover. "Good idea, I wouldn't have thought of that myself!" Alan sarcastically remarked as he took a shot and hit one of the armed men. Taking a deep breath, Skye got up and took a shot, hitting one of the armed men before quickly taking cover again. "Got one!" Skye told Shining Armor. "Heh, not bad Skye, not bad at all," Shining Armor responded as he patted Skye on her back, "How many more left, Alan?" "Two more, one at 11 o'clock, the other at 1," Alan responded as he took a quick glance of the two armed men before quickly taking cover again as they continued shooting with their rifles. "Hmm, shouldn't be too hard," Shining Armor said, "Think you can make it?" "Only if you help out, sir," Alan replied. "Watch and learn, Skye," General Shining Armor told Skye as he and Alan quickly ran towards each other, throwing their pistols to each other, confusing the two remaining armed men. Once both caught the other's pistol, both Alan and Shining Armor quickly took a shot, taking out the two remaining armed men. Slowly getting up, Skye asked, "Is... that it?" "Not quite. We still haven't found the 0-8-4 yet," General Shining Armor replied. Kneeling down next to one of the incapacitated armed men, Alan said, "Sir, the name on their uniform says 'Centipede'." "'Centipede'?" Shining Armor questioned, shocked by what Alan said, "Well this just complicates things." "I don't get it... what's 'Centipede'?" Skye asked. "Your guess is as good as mine," Shining Armor replied, "All I know is that 'Centipede' is a mysterious group that has been causing the J.I.A. headaches over the years. We don't know what exactly they want, or why. And even if we interrogate any of these guys we took out after they wake up, it'll be useless. Centipede's henchmen are brainwashed and have no memory apart from they were instructed to do." "So... dead end?" Skye asked. Suddenly, a scream was heard from the floor above them, with Alan replying to Skye, "Maybe not." The trio then rushed towards the stairs and went up to the 8th floor. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- ~Courthouse - Café~ "That won't work," Jenny told Harold as Matt and Foggy finished their sandwiches, "With Tarkin, there's no such thing as a curveball. He's not like that. The guy's like a master of chess, always anticipating every possible move." Just then, speakers throughout the courthouse announced, "Attention. The case of 'The Republic of Japan v. Harold Flamel' will resume in five minutes." "Well, that's our cue," Matt said as he got up from his seat, "Time to continue this game with Tarkin. Harold, Foggy... let's go." "Oshawott," Foggy replied, nodding as he climbed up Matt's shoulder, who was using his cane to help him walk towards the courtroom. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- The following segments are written on @NutheadBros 's behalf: ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- ~Nintendo High School: Hallway~ "And here we are, Dr. Eggman's classroom," Freddy told Springtrap upon arriving at the door to Eggman's classroom, "I gotta go take care of a few things for now, but it's imperative you tell Dr. Eggman that Sonic sent you. Don't ask why." Freddy then hurried back to the Computer Lab, wondering whether Eggman will destroy Springtrap, install his GPS, or a strange combination of both... -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ~Vector Building~ "Let's put it this way, Fulgore... if C.C. resists, you are authorized to do whatever it takes to bring her here," Wilhelm replied, "I don't care what you do to her. The important thing is that she remain alive once you bring her, and that you do not engage with anyone else." --------------------------------------------------------------------------- ~Outside Nintendo High~ As Jumpman Sr. was walking through a street where he could see Nintendo High's clock tower in the distance, he noticed an explosion close to him resulting from the battle between the Cyborg known as Max and Metal Sonic. Quickly running to a nearby alleyway, Jumpman Sr. noticed that as the dust cleared, Metal Sonic had protected himself with a Black Shield, with Max looking at Metal, ready to continue fighting. As the Black Shield vanished, Metal Sonic and Max rushed towards each other, and the traded punch after punch, while Jumpman Sr. continued watching silently just as other locals were. As Metal Sonic and Max continued their fist fight, Metal noticed Max's eyes begin to flicker between red and blue. 'What?' Metal thought to himself as Max delivered a punch and knocked Metal down. Gasping, Jumpman Sr. then noticed a J.I.A. helicopter flying above, along with several J.I.A. vehicles arriving at the scene... "Secure the perimeter," J.I.A. agent John Garret instructed other agents as he took out his gun, "Now to see what all the fuss is about." As J.I.A. agents were getting people out of the area, one J.I.A. agent approached Jumpman Sr... "Sir, I'm going to have to ask you to leave. We have a situation," Bon Bon told the old man. "B-but I need to go to Nintendo High School," Jumpman Sr. pleaded, "My grandsons are there." "Sir, I perfectly understand," Agent Sweetie Drops replied, "But we've got the situation under control. Anything that happens here will not affect the school. You have my word." "Your word?" Jumpman Sr. asked, with the pony nodding reply. Jumpman Sr.'s phone then began to ring, and told Bon Bon, "Very well, agent. I'll be on my way." As he walked away from the scene, Jumpman Sr. answered his phone, noticing it was from the engineer at Freddy Fazbear's Pizzeria, replying, "Yes?" Meanwhile, back at the scene, Garret watched as Max looked down on the fallen Metal Sonic, as though he intended to finish him. "Sir, we were able to confirm that cyborg as being a Crystal Order design," a J.I.A. agent told John Garret. "Well, then in that case, let's blow that cyborg to smithereens," Garret replied. Upon hearing what Garret said, Metal Sonic got up, and waved his arms, trying to signal to the J.I.A. not to attack. "What is he saying?" John Garret questioned. "I think... he doesn't want us to attack the cyborg," Bon Bon replied as she approached John. "And why the hell does he want that after that thing gave him a knockout punch?" Garret questioned once more. Trying to communicate with hand signals once again, Metal pointed towards Max, and then placed his hand over his chest. "I think... he wants to have a... heart-to-heart communication with the cyborg," Agent Sweetie Drops commented. Metal Sonic instantly nodded, indicating that the pony guessed right. Sighing, Garret told Metal Sonic, "Five minutes. If you can't get that cyborg to stand down, we will." ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ~Roof of Building Close to Hospital~ After waiting for a while, Golden Freddy noticed Ruiji finally arrive as he asked him to. "You made it," Golden Freddy greeted Ruiji, "Heard you took a beating after what happened on Tuesday." "Yeah, but I'm alive," Ruiji responded, "So what did you want me to come here for?" "Just wanted to ask some questions," Golden Freddy answered. "Questions?" Ruiji asked, confused by what Golden Freddy said, with the S-type nodding in reply. "Umm, okay... go ahead, I guess," a confused Ruiji told Golden Freddy. "Who is the leader of the Crystal Order?" Golden Freddy asked. "No idea," Ruiji replied, "That was such a secretive part of the organization I wasn't able to ever find out. Probably why they kept me out of every initiation. All I know is that Haytham's number 2, while Rassilon's number 3." "What country are we in," Golden Freddy asked. "Umm... Japan," Ruiji replied, surprised by Golden Freddy's bizarre question. "Do you know of any current students from Nintendo High School who are part of the Crystal Order?" Golden Freddy asked. "No... I do know some members who were students at the school long ago," Ruiji replied, "Let's see, well there's Haytham, obviously... Jadeite... Discord... can't think of anyone else off the top of my head. But as far as current students go... nope, I have absolutely no idea." "What can you tell me about the J.I.A.?" Golden Freddy asked. "Umm, I don't know... stands for Japanese Intelligence Agency... big enemy of the Crystal Order... yada yada yada... not much else to say about it, really," Ruiji replied. "Do you know where the Crystal Order headquarters are located?" Golden Freddy asked. "No... wish I knew," Ruiji replied, "But no. I have no idea whatsoever. Again, secrecy." "What can you tell me about Harold Saxon?" Golden Freddy asked. "Umm, the Interior Minister of Japan... running for Prime Minister against Cosmos, oh, and he's the stepson of the Nintendo High School principal, Al Mualim," Ruiji answered, "But other than that... nothing." "Do you know of any world leaders associated with the Crystal Order?" Golden Freddy asked. "Nope. Secrecy... yet again..." Ruiji replied. "Aaaand, that's it," Golden Freddy said, "We're done." "Huh, really weird questions you're asking... what gives?" Ruiji asked. After a moment of silence, Golden Freddy replied, "That secret stays with me." "Oh come now, Golden Freddy, why not tell him?" a familiar voice asked the S-type. "That voice, I recognize it..." Ruiji commented before turning around, and finding Crystal Order member, Romulus Thread, standing in front of him, pointing a gun towards him... "Missed me?" Romulus asked as he smirked. "What's going on here?" Ruiji questioned. "ROMULUS! You promised you wouldn't harm him if he didn't know crucial information!" Golden Freddy cried. "Well... I lied," Romulus replied, "Gotta get some payback for that stunt you and Ruiji here pulled off." "Why Freddy... why?" Ruiji questioned, shocked to hear of what Golden Freddy did. "Ruiji, I swear, I didn't know. He set me up!" Golden Freddy replied. "Hey, I'm still here," Romulus told the two, "How about less talking and more doing. Buh-bye, Ruiji." "NOOOOO!!!!" Golden Freddy cried as he rushed towards Ruiji and pushed him out of the way. But just as Romulus was about to pull the trigger, a blue force field surrounded Golden Freddy, pushing Romulus and Ruiji out of the way. Confused at what just happened, Golden Freddy noticed an eyeless man teleport right next to him... "You're coming with me," the eyeless man, named Gordon, told Golden Freddy, grabbing him, and teleporting himself and Golden Freddy away. Slowly getting up, Romulus noticed Golden Freddy was nowhere to be found. "Okay... what?" Romulus said to himself, confused by what had just happened. Noticing Ruiji lying on the side of the roof, Romulus found him unconscious. 'Guess he must've hit his head hard on the side of the roof,' Romulus thought to himself. Looking around, Romulus noticed his gun must've flown off the building after the weird incident that happened. Kneeling down to the unconscious Ruiji, Romulus said, "Next time, a**hole. Next time..." The Crystal Order member then walked away, heading towards the stairs and exiting the rooftop. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ ~Nintendo High School: Cafeteria (Again)~ As she quietly ate lunch with her friends, IF felt her cellphone vibrate. Taking it out, she noticed she got a text message from Finnick Surge, the boy she's been talking with online since Tuesday, and was supposed to meet after school. Finnick's new message was asking IF to meet him in Shibuya. "What is it?" Compa asked. "Oh, just a relative of mine," IF lied, "Gonna meet him afterschool." "Really, who is this relative?" Compa asked. "Oh, just a very, very distant relative. He lives in Sweden, and his family's visiting Japan for vacation," IF continued lying, "So, yeah... I'm gonna be busy for the rest of the day." "'Kay," Compa said, shrugging as she continued eating, while IF replied to Finnick with a simple 'Sure.'
And here's the first Season 2 trailer (though it mostly just recaps stuff from Season 1, the Season 2 stuff at the end looks great. And, we get our first look at Elektra and Punisher!):

~Tokyo Harbor~ "Don, there you are," Silver greeted Don as he arrived, "Good news. Looks like I finally found your missing member of parliament." As Silver pointed towards Kuzco, the llama waved at Don, saying, "Hiya." "Yes, that is the same llama I told you about who said his name was 'Kuzco'," Silver explained to Don, "Long story short, it turns out his ex-secretary tried poisoning him with a drink last week, but a mix-up led to him instead drinking a potion that turned him into a llama." --------------------------------------------------------------------- ~Nintendo Elementary School: Front Gate~ After Jessebelle had left to take care of things at school, Looker listened to Kiriko's response, and replied, "No new leads, huh? Well don't give up. I'm sure you'll find something. Could take some time as it did with Elsa. But you never know when you'll find it. After all, Don just messaged me that he finally got a lead on Kuzco, almost a week after he was reported missing. Main thing is to keep looking and looking." ------------------------------------------------------------------------ ~Nintendo High School: Pokemon Battling Classroom~ "Hmm, I think I know the perfect one for you," Professor Oak replied to Hermione as he opened his drawer, trying to look for something, "Now where did I put that Pokeball... oh, here it is!" Taking out a Pokeball from his drawer, Oak tossed it to the floor, and out of it came a Vulpix: "This is here is Vulpix," Oak told Hermione, "Ever since her trainer abandoned her, poor Vulpix has had a hard time trying to interact with others. Maybe all she needs is a little courage, and perhaps you can be the one to give it to her, Hermione." ---------------------------------------------------------------------- ~Nintendo High School: Cafeteria~ "I'm sure she would," Sully replied to Setsuna, "I highly doubt any of the kids at her school ever heard of her lunatic father, so I really can't see any of them judging her just because of her relation to crazy Dr. Tomoe. As long as she's herself, she should be fine." ---------------------------------------------------------------------- ~Nintendo High School: Cafeteria (Again)~ "Hi!" Bulk Biceps greeted Cassie's friends as they took a seat with them. "Your dad is a blind swordsman?" Max asked Takeda, "Cassie's right, that is cool. Man, and I thought trying to learn braille would be the hardest thing for a someone who was blind. Well, that and trying to get around." -------------------------------------------------------------------- ~Tokyo's Toshima District~ While Fitz was still controlling the drone (which was slowly ascending from one floor to the next in the abandoned building), Skye told Shining Armor, "You never told me what an 0-8-4 is." "It's an object of unknown origin," the pony explained. "Kind of like you," May told Skye from the SUV's driver seat. "Team goes in, determines if it's useful or if it poses a threat," General Shining Armor continued explaining. "I see," Skye replied. "Is that... someone's shadow?" Jemma questioned as she was monitoring the footage from the drone on Leo's laptop. "It's moving," Alan added. Just then, the signal to the drone was lost, no loner transmitting footage to the laptop. "That's... not good," Fitz commented as he looked at Shining Armor, "Someone's up there. 7th floor." Taking out his night-night pistol, Alan marched to the front door, and kicked it open, saying, "Then let's go up and say hello." "Alright," Shining Armor said as he joined Alan, "May, you stay out here with Fitz-Simmons in case we need help outside." Nodding, May exited from her SUV and stood next to Fitz and Simmons. "Hey, I wanna come too," Skye said as she followed General Shining Armor, taking out the night-night pistol Alan gave her, "Alan gave me this for a reason." "Okay, but stay close," Shining Armor warned Skye as they entered the building. "Watch your back, rookie," Alan added. "Got it, guys," Skye replied as they started climbing up the stairs to the 7th floor. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- ~Nintendo High School: Cafeteria (Again x2)~ "I like to whisper too," Star Butterfly whispered to both Rei and Ami. Turning her attention back to Serena, Star put her left arm around her, and extended her right arm in front of her, holding her wand as she chanted, "Fantastic Selfie Flash!" The wand then flashed as though it were a camera that was taking a picture of Star and Serena. Immediately after that, a photo appeared above Star, who grabbed it, and admired the photo, which indeed was a selfie of Star and Serena. "I am gonna cherish this photo for the rest of my life," Star told Serena, "And the funny thing is... I don't even know your name!" -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ~Nintendo High School: Cafeteria (Again x3)~ "Well, uh, more schoolwork... which is never fun," Ritchie replied to Eris. "Pikachu," Sparky concurred with Ritchie. "I'm feeling a bit better from my bike accident," Rue added. Meanwhile, as Connor's headache persisted, something strange was happening to his vision. Connor was beginning to see a blue aura surround Katniss, Haymitch, Rue, Ritchie, Sparky, Dick, and Eris. 'What the-?' Connor thought to himself as he closed his eyes, rubbing them. As he opened his eyes once more, the aura was gone. 'Weird', Connor thought to himself as he continued eating. "What is it?" Katniss asked Connor. "Nothing," Connor replied, with Katniss and Haymitch looking at each other, both worried about him.
Another new preview: Sorta reminds me of this Daredevil preview. Also, Avengers tower in the background!
