Ahhhh! It's a perfectly beautiful Tirade Thursday in Singapore.
The birds are chirping in the parks, babies are all peacefully sleeping in their strollers, music from Mozart fills the air.
What better way for the Tomboy Tarts, Raven and Persis to spend their day off, indulging in chocolate eclairs and reading a comic book eh?
But o no! Things always go horribly wrong for this dumbass duo as the island is suddenly torn apart at its seams by a freak tornado that blows them right into their comic book - one that was once written by the Geek Crusade, Singapore's biggest online geek community.
Nicholas and Gillian, founders of the community and the Tomboy Tarts talk about the comic-book obsessed Fall TV lineup on US television where Constantine, Gotham and The Flash battle it out for coolest comic book TV series of the year.
We also talk about Keanu's so-called tanking movie studio career which has ironically made him a star in other ways, thanks to his latest action flick, 'John Wick', a film that hits hard at the core of what action movies are supposed to be; raw thrills and spills and has given rise to a new genre of cinema everyone's calling 'New Action'.
Then everyone must make it to the next page of the comic book before the page flips to talk about the ultimate entertainment war taking place in the world of Hollywood blockbusters - yes, it could only be the Marvel vs DC tussle. Who wins? Who loses? And why?
Then, everyone continues to escape more flipping comic book pages to end up on its last page where everyone talks about the growing trend of tomboy heroines in films. Why the sudden interest in making blockbuster films helmed by female action heroes? We dissect it all this week, with a dose of slapstick, tongue-in-cheek humour minus Kim Kardashian's ass.
And of course, the ultimate question: Will everyone be able to find their way out of this 2D comic book world concocted by Geek Crusade?
