DragonBall Z Abridged
Ok…so this might seem kind of goofy to some of you out there, but growing up I was a fan of Dragon Ball Z. I’m still a fan of the new series Dragon Ball Super. It’s an anime show from Japan that has a huge following. At some point, I stumbled across something called Dragon Ball Z Abridged. Basically these guys names Team Four Star took the series and revoiced it. It’s amazing. I have cried laughing at it sometimes. I won’t lie, it helps if you have seen the series, but you can figure it out if not. Also, the first few episodes aren’t great, but if you start around episode 10, you should enjoy yourself!

Avengers Endgame Plot Leak?
Avengers Endgame will probably be the biggest movie of 2019. A friend showed me this video. I’m not sure if it’s right or not, but it makes sense. I don’t know, take it for what it’s worth!
