What’s good everybody it's ya boycharlie
Splatoon 2 is holding a Splashfest event. A Splashfest known as Festival or Fes in Japan, is a special event in Splatoon and Splatoon 2 in which Inklings choose between two teams. These teams usually differ from each other like cats vs dogs, autobots vs. decepticons, early bird vs. night owl.
During the Splashfest Regular & Ranked Battle options are not available, as they are temporarily replaced by the Splatfest Battle option; however, Private Battles can still be accessed. The final score is a count of how many categories each team has a majority percentage in.
There are three categories:
- Popularity
- Solo Wins
- Team Wins
When our girls from Off The Hook announce the results, the highest of each category are all individually highlighted before the final results are shown. This Splatfest will begin January 12th at 8 pm. OMG! That’s tomorrow.
Here are the sides of this month's Splatfest:
Action:
Action Genre movies, movies in which a hero must face a series of challenges that typically include violence, extended fighting, physical feats, and frantic chases.
Action Movies can be defined by:
A Strong Hero Character: A great action movie has characters that are realistic. It is extremely important that your audience develop a connection to these characters. A staple of a bad action film are "cardboard characters". Franchises like The Expendables are notorious for their use of traditional action superstars ie. Sylvestor Stallone, Arnold Schwarzenegger, Jason Statham, Jet Li, and Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson.
Special Effects: Although character is important, it's fine to have a few awesome action sequences in your movie as well! Feel free to add in a few CGI explosions. Directors such as Michael Bay have made their movies known for their over the top explosions.

Thor Ragnorok
Thor Ragnorok is the third installment of the norse god's arc in the MCU. Thor has met his match in a new great foe and must work together with allies new and old to save his people. Without spoiling too much I have to say while the film did feel kind of Disney(trust me you can tell when a film feels more Disney than an earlier installment from before the buy-out).
Comedy:
Comedy genre movies, movies in which the films are designed to make the audience laugh. These films come in many styles and often have stars or star comedians as the main characters. Some famous comedy movie actors and actresses are Adam Sandler, Anna Farris, Melissa Mccarthy,Chris Rock, and T.J. Miller.
Comedy has many sub genres such as
Slapstick: The term slapstick was taken from the wooden sticks that clowns slapped together to promote audience applause. These films were predominant in the earliest silent films, since they didn't need sound to be effective.
Screwball: Screwball comedies, a sub-genre of romantic comedy films, was predominant from the mid-1930s to the mid-1940s. The word 'screwball' denotes lunacy, craziness, eccentricity, ridiculousness, and erratic behavior.
Parody : These specific types of comedy (also called put-ons, send-ups, charades, lampoons, take-offs, jests, mockumentaries, etc.) are usually a humorous or anarchic take-off that ridicules, impersonates, scoffs at, and/or imitates (mimics) pop culture.

LEGO Batman
Within the Lego Movie Universe, Batman protects Gotham City and fights crime as one of the most awesome heroes ever. He hurts his arch-rival's feelings, leading Joker to seek the ultimate revenge on him. LEGO Batman takes a lot of the sweet humor from the first movie and adds that gritty superhero filter that is familiar with the Batman Brand.
Who do I side with?
Mr. O from and I have chosen to be on the Comedy Team. We pretty much agreed together that while we like Action Films, we totally watch way more Comedies. A lot of the times these newer action films feel like Comedies anyway, Hollywood tends to throw way too many one liners. Makes the whole film seem bad.

For the time being this is the gear that I'm going to run with. A Splooshomatic on the Cannon. A Splatfest Shirt because that's what I'm going to be required to wear anyways. It's better to level up the shirt now anyways.
