Things We Saw Today: The X-Men: Apocalypse Cast Singing the X-Men: Animated Series Theme

Oh, now that’s just too precious. James McAvoy and Nicholas Hoult get bonus points for remembering the X-Men: The Animated Series theme song. Check out the video to watch them perform their perfectly on tone and well done renditions of the song. (via Comic Vine)

• In April, when a bunch of pieces showed up in the internet about how to get more women playing Magic: The Gathering, it was clear that there was something missing: input from female gamers. That’s exactly the void that Across the Board Games tried to fill with their “Play Your Way: Women and Magic, Part 1” survey. Check out the intriguing results at their website to see what they have to say.
• The folks over at Warner Bros. might be a little too overzealous with pulling the Suicide Squad trailer from websites. They’ve issued a DMCA request to have the videos pulled, which is fine for big sites, but when they target YouTube channels who fall under Fair Use, there’s a line being crossed. Polygon has the full story, and why things like this are harmful to people’s actual livelihoods.

You ever think to yourself, “Hey, I wonder what a Facehugger macaron would taste like?” If so, see a doctor, because I’m worried about you. Then, head on over to Lou Lou P’s Delights in the UK to try out one of these bad boys. There’s a ton of photos of their other incredibly well-crafted delights on their Facebook page. Check ’em out.

• A lot of the crew behind the original Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles movies are suing Fortune Star Media Ltd. (who they believe own the rights to the Turtles) for $3 million. They allege that profit figures were withheld, so they had no idea how much they were actually owed. (via Comic Book Resources)
• In a short, but sweet video over at io9, Agent Carter stars Hayley Atwell and James D’Arcy share some details about the coming season. Peggy’s ready to move on from Cap (all together, now: aww), and Jarvis has a “hidden presence” in his life that’s soon to be revealed.

That’s a lotta nuts stuff. What’d y’all see today?
