The theme this month should have been "comic books" since it was all comic book stuff... plus Mario Bros. because it's not a Loot Crate without something from Nintendo being in it. I think my favorite crate was last month because there wasn't any Nintendo shit in it. Anyway, you'd think that this one would be custom made for me but as usual, there was just that weird, dated bit of nerdom to this. A tiki glass? What the fuck am I going to do with that? I'm not going to collect them all that's for sure. A replica of Captain America's shield from the first Captain America film... that's the worst of the three! And it's the fake one he used for the play! Anyway, there was some okay stuff and some "what the fuck do I do with this" stuff. I am looking forward to the Loot Wear edition.

Uh... why are we watching Batman shave? How is this interesting? It didn't convince me to plop down my hard earned money for this film, that's for sure. Also, "Three S's" refers to shit, shower and shave! You probably learned more with that than the clip.

I have to say this is probably the best Loot Wear that I've gotten. Sure I'm not in love with all of the brands that they put in there, but as far as wearability goes, it's pretty damn good. The only thing that I would feel like a fraud wearing is the Mr. Robot stuff and I still don't see how that show is such a fashion powerhouse, but whatever. Also my fucking cat makes an audio appearance. Enjoy.

What the fuck is wrong with Hawkman's eyes? Why does he have actual glowing bird eyes? Also the Hall of Justice is a shit idea made to sell toys and should never be used again. Unless you're going to sell toys of it Warner Brothers.

There are only two items that were "meh" in this month's box. One is the phone trinket that they always send and those are always "meh." The other was a cheap keychain. The rest was pretty damn good. The Sailor Moon bottle opener is legit and heavy. The Robotech light up this is nice but pretty cheap once you touch it and use it. The Ein plushy... is fucking amazing. My son loved it, and I'm happy he did. If you're getting this "crate," then you should be pretty pleased. I know that I liked it way more than the regular Loot Crate this month. Loot Wear is late again, so I probably won't have a video for it.

It's that time again. Loot Crate, just in time for Christmas! What's the theme you ask? Stuff related to movies releasing this holiday season! YAY! Once again, this was a disappointment. I mean, they're mostly disappointments, but fuck... this one is pretty bad. Not even one cool thing.

If you're happy about this then kiss the ground James Gunn walks on because before that fucking movie no one gave two shits about this franchise outside of the Marvel Cosmic fans. Hell, if it was up to Joe Q., he would have fucking buried the Cosmic line during his time as EIC. I bet the top brass are glad he didn't and that they snagged Chris Pratt for the lead because we all know he's what made your panties moist. Anyway, I bet this ends up a lot like the Batman one.

I'm sure this is going to end up being a part 1 of 2, but for now, this is all that I was sent to unbox. It's happened before, but it was a shirt... this time its underwear from a show I don't watch and they might be the wrong size which is fun. Enjoy the rant!

Well, this month's Loot Anime box isn't too bad, just nothing that I give a damn about. I don't think I'm even keeping anything out if it, but I know one asshole and a brother that are getting the good stuff! Keep watching Bastards, more unboxing to come... because it's fun to do and complain about and apparently I'm 90 in nerddom years.

The theme this month is "Magical", but this box is anything but. There's some Doctor Strange merch, a shirt that could have been cool if you could actually tell what fucking movie it was from and one of the worst comic books of the year. That's right, the mystery has been solved, BOOM! got Big Trouble in Little China/Escape From New York #1 in the top spot on Diamond's list by getting it added to Loot Crate... oh you poor subscribers. Seriously, that is quite possibly the worst, if not close to the worst, comic I've read all year. Basically this month's box kinda sucked and felt pretty light on merch.

Hey the trailer for Legend is out because tomorrow the trade is out. I plan on reading it at some point since I'm reading as many trades and OGN's before I do my end of the year list. At the very least, trailers are fun and easy to watch so do that!

Thanks to the success of The Killing Joke animated movie, DC/WB Animation has gone for another rated R animation, but this time it's using that weird fucking Justice League they created around the New 52. You know the one with Wonder Woman in the actually cool fucking costume, but sucked because she ate ice cream like an asshole.

Well, what do we have here? This trailer of the live-action adaption of Fullmetal Alchemist is news to me so I figured I'd share it with you guys. I think it looks great and I'll definitely check it out whenever the opportunity presents itself. And hey, no use of a shitty cover song here (looking at you, Ghost in the Shell).

Yes, it is November, but I just got this. I'm assuming the underwear delayed the roll out. That's right, Loot Crate/Wear is making undies now! Hell, they even have a separate subscription to get just the underwear or just the socks! I recommend the socks. I'm wearing the underwear right now, and they're all right, but if you just need generic nerd underwear, you can get that at Target. These are dryfit... I guess that makes them better. That means there's no pee hole! The matching socks were for women by the way... make that shit unisex already dammit! They dropped the ball on the horror them and their weird choices in shirt styles. Who the fuck is going to wear that Alien shirt? No one, you'll look like an asshole in PJ's. I'm looking forward to next month because you know they're going to shit the bed on Christmas.

Happy Halloween you Loot watchers! I don't know what else to call you all, but I picture you all dressed like The Watcher starring at me secretly while I unbox these... boxes. This month's theme for Loot Anime is "Food." It's not bad, but it's not as good as last months. Also, no socks, no shirts, and still service. Oh well, I'm getting too many shitty shirts as it is. There is one item I was rather excited by, but then after opening it, I had a flashback of the Infinity Gauntlet oven mitt and so I won't really be using it. That'll make sense once you watch the video. Happy looting... god that was lame.
Read MoreI completely forgot about Halloween just before opening this "crate" and so I was a little surprised at first by the theme. I should have known, but there were other things on my mind. That said, this theme should have been awesome and instead took the crown for the worst Loot Crate I have ever gotten. You'll have to watch for yourself and see how they shit the bed while using some of horror's biggest brands.

First off, the only difference between the regular trailer and the red band trailer is one scene. The scene that's acting as the still image above. Claws through the head... now you're dead.
This trailer is okay. Clearly they're going for Old Man Logan without the rest of the Marvel Universe and staying in the confines of the licenses that Fox has.

Got it on the last day! Still, counts right? First off, had a minor mess up in the middle of the video. Sorry, probably won't do it this way again because as you'll see, I didn't have the camera aimed where I fucking thought I did for about half the video. I will say, this is probably the best Loot Crate/Loot Anime I've gotten. If my brother wasn't a Bleach fan, I would have kept everything, but otherwise, I'm happy with what I got. I hope there's more like it in the future. Also, here's a picture of the watch since I didn't want to fuck with it while recording.
