We’re entering a golden age for PC gaming. The next generation of graphics cards are capable of pumping out 4K graphics and high FPS on almost any big name release, and real-time raytracing is taking graphics to new heights that weren’t possible just a couple years ago. Add in Sony bringing more PlayStation ports to

The canceled video game adaptation of The Dark Knight is one of the more fascinating and infamous pieces of game industry lore. To some, the title is just a curious footnote in video game history. To others (mostly those who invested in the project or lost their jobs over it), it’s a dark reminder of
When one thinks about 1988’s Coming to America, a few things stand out: James Earl Jones and Madge Sinclair as the King and Queen of Zamunda speaking to their son Prince Akeem (Eddie Murphy) at a breakfast table with intercom radios; the opulence of Zamunda’s palace, which represented an idealized African nation to 1980s audiences
The recent reveal of Aliens: Fireteam (a co-op shooter from Cold Iron Studios based on the film of the same name) has quickly proven to be one of the year’s most welcome surprises so far. At a time when the COVID-19 pandemic has left us questioning when previously revealed games will be released, the seemingly
NBC series Good Girls is a darkly comic crime romp which plays like Ozark meets Breaking Bad but with a bunch of mums.

Blunt plays Rachel, a depressed alcoholic who
2021 continues to be a rollercoaster for movie lovers everywhere, with a once promising Spring 2021 going much the same way as 2020 with delays, release date shifts, and growing apprehension. Still, even if the first few months of 2021 will look much like the last 12, there are reasons to smile. For starters, a
Amidst Sunday night’s half-virtual/half-physical Golden Globes awards ceremony–which was riddled with technical glitches and overshadowed by controversy over the Hollywood Foreign Press Association’s lack of Black representation in its cloistered ranks–one moment stood out as possibly the most powerful and clearly the most moving of the evening. That was when Taylor Simone Ledward, the widow
The month of March signals a grim milestone with it being roughly one year since COVID-19 shut movie theaters down around the world. And 12 months later, going to a cinema remains a risky proposition. However, the comfort of Netflix is still providing a safe alternative for the quarantine-bound. Here’s a handful of new cinematic
It’s happening. It’s finally happening. What was once a particularly pervasive and aggressive Internet meme is now a reality. HBO Max’s list of new releases for March 2021 is highlighted by none other than the mythical Snyder cut. The entity now known as Zach Snyder’s Justice League will premiere on March 18. While it was
This article contains spoilers for High-Rise Invasion season 1.

This can be even more prevalent when it comes to anime since it’s sometimes quite difficult to
This article contains WandaVision spoilers. With just one episode left in the season – and technically the series – the finale of WandaVision has a lot of ground to cover. Its penultimate installment was not just a heartbreaking retrospective of just how terrible Wanda’s life has been and how much she has suffered, it gave
You know what they say: when God (or Kevin Feige) closes the door on one Disney+ Marvel series, he opens the door on another. Disney+’s list of new releases for March 2021 is highlighted by a changing of the guard for Marvel TV shows. The highly successful and fun Marvel Disney+ premiere WandaVision will wrap
This article contains WandaVision episode 8 spoilers and potential spoilers for the wider MCU. “You didn’t think you were the only magical girl in town, did you?” Agatha Harkness makes good on that line from last week’s episode in WandaVision episode 8, which functions as a trip through Wanda Maximoff’s entire MCU history. Not only
This Clarice review contains spoilers. Clarice Episode 3 Clarice, episode 3, “Are You Alright?,” almost allows Agent Clarice Starling (Rebecca Breeds) to overcome the typecasting of her role in the events in the film The Silence of the Lambs. The federal cop practically changes the venue by sheer force of will, as if she could
I didn’t get it. When Ron Howard’s The Da Vinci Code took the world by storm in 2006, I was far from being a professional critic, but I could still be highly critical of something like this. It was an adaptation of the biggest literary phenomenon of the decade not starring Harry Potter, and it
This Nancy drew review contains spoilers. Nancy Drew Season 2, Episode 6 In case you were anxious that Nancy Drew’s second season would slow down now that the gang has finally defeated the Aglaeca for good, “The Riddle of the Broken Doll” is here to prove that we have nothing to worry about in that
Most early photographs look haunted. Perhaps it’s because we view these images with the knowledge that the people inside them are already ghosts. In some early photos the subject had actually already expired at the time of their capture. Photography was expensive and the first and best occasion for many families to pay for a
This article contains Superman & Lois episode 1 spoilers. We have a spoiler free review here. Superman & Lois episode 1 does it all! Callbacks to the comics that go all the way back to 1938!

If you eagerly wait for the next episode of WandaVision to arrive, motor through it and then jump into the nearest chat filled with other obsessives to pick apart the entire thing and argue over the latest possible theories, you’re not alone: Spider-Man is right there with you. Well, the actor who currently slings his
This All American review contains spoilers. All American Season 3, Episode 6 The cabin. Oh, that cabin. I didn’t think I’d have to go through the same level of emotional gutting as “Coming Home”, when Corey (Chad L. Coleman) died, but that cold open really gave the Season 2 installment a run for its money.
It was a very select group of people who were satisfied with the Justice League movie which hit theaters in November 2017. As a Frankenstein’s monster of cinematic body parts, some derived from the original production helmed by director Zack Snyder and other scenes created whole cloth at the last minute by Joss Whedon during
This Attack on Titan review contains spoilers. Attack on Titan Season 4 Episode 11 “We can’t believe in anyone…” On its surface, the titular “counterfeits” in this Attack on Titan episode are “Mia” and “Ben,” the aliases that Gabi and Falco build for themselves while they evade Eldian capture. However, on a deeper level, Gabi
This article contains WANDAVISION spoilers. Despite its many still-lingering questions, WandaVision has made one thing crystal clear: Wanda Maximoff is truly the most powerful Avenger.

This article contains I Care a Lot spoilers. You can read our spoiler-free review here.

This article contains I Care a Lot spoilers. J Blakeson’s I Care a Lot is one of very few films where everyone in it is a villain.

Much like the reveal of Diablo 2 Resurrection, many Blizzard fans were anticipating the eventual release of The Burning Crusade Classic as the follow-up to WoW Classic. It seemed inevitable that Blizzard would revisit the first WoW expansion following “vanilla” WoW‘s recent success. And yet, there’s something undeniably magical about the confirmation that we’re this
This article contains WandaVision spoilers. WandaVision is in its home stretch, with one big “villain” reveal hitting at the end of episode 7, and more expected any episode now. Agatha Harkness’ basement gave off some real strong bad gal vibes, but historically in the comics she’s never been the mastermind behind Wanda’s troubles, so much
This Clarice review contains spoilers. Clarice Episode 2 Clarice episode 2, “Ghosts of Highway 20,” takes the series further from The Silence of the Lambs, and deeper into federal cop procedural territory. FBI Agent Clarice Starling (Rebecca Breeds) went rogue at the end of the debut episode, “breaking the chain of command” and telling the
