For decades, video game movies have had a reputation for being bad. Ever since 1993’s Super Mario Bros. became the first theatrically released live-action feature adaptation of a video game, the practice of bringing gaming icons to the big screen has only brought about failure after failure. However, change came from an odd source: Disney. […]
Dark Matter Season 2 on Apple TV just ended, so fans looking for more multiversal madness should not look any further than Jet Li’s The One. The sci-fi action movie debuted on Nov. 2nd, 2001, and turned 25 just days after Joel Edgerton finished his second season fighting through alternate realities. The One takes place […]
The 1990s were a time of television that was packed with animated series, and with them came their theme songs. Multiple decades later, kids of the 80s (and 80s kids at heart) still remember them, even if the shows themselves stunk. Thankfully, there were more great series than ones that weren’t. Rugrats, Pinky and the […]
It has been a couple of years, but Daisy Ridley’s name is back in the news thanks to the announcement of the early plans for Star Wars: Episode X. Ridley rose to prominence thanks to her role as Rey in Disney’s sequel trilogy running from 2015 through 2019. While those movies made a ton of […]

Star Wars has given us some of the most iconic characters in pop culture history.

There was a time when gamers wanted to see their favorite games brought to the big screen. Some franchises became so huge in pop culture that people couldn’t understand why Hollywood hadn’t turned them into movies yet. Street Fighter was one of them. Ryu and Ken deserved better than another movie that treated the games […]
Spider-Man: No Way Home saw Peter Parker erased from the memories of everybody on 616 Earth, or so it seemed. Episode 6 of the Marvel Cinematic Universe show VisionQuest, titled “Deadlock”, heavily hinted otherwise, with fans hopping on X to suggest that E.D.I.T.H., along with Vision, Ultron, and the other AIs, must remember Peter Parker. […]
Remember when cartoons could get away with making fun of just about everybody? Before every superhero had a cinematic universe to protect and every franchise came with a small army of lawyers, there was room for some truly ridiculous television. Imagine Batman getting replaced by a guy who looks like he wandered into the wrong […]
Image courtesy of Hasbro The 90s were a fantastic decade for television, and 80s kids had the good fortune of spending their teen years watching it all.
