The Power Rangers have had some truly despicable villains over the years, including the likes of Lord Zedd, Venjix, and Dark Specter, just to name a few. More often than not, those villains end up being defeated by the Rangers and sent packing, but every so often there’s another chapter to their story before it […]
Man of Steel grossed more than $668 million worldwide in 2013, a number healthy enough to convince Warner Bros. that DC properties could anchor a shared cinematic universe the way Marvel Studios had with the Marvel Cinematic Universe. That confidence pushed Warner Bros. to fast-track a slate of interconnected films rather than build the universe […]
X-Men ’97 Season 2 just brought back a superpower I never thought I’d see again. This season has been a strange one; every episode has been remarkably strong, but the overall narrative has been a little disjointed. Apocalypse has resurrected Gambit, but the Ragin’ Cajun remains infatuated by his beloved Rogue. Surprisingly, though, episode 8 […]
Acquisitions are generally bad since power consolidation and losing competition is anathema to quality. While fluffy corpo speak can try to falsely paint these sales as a benefit for everyone, it’s often just a word salad of lies meant to satiate the ever-ravenous shareholders.

Horror remakes don’t have to be bad. If done right, they can enhance their source material, allowing creatives to put a fresh spin on a familiar story. Just take for instance John Carpenter’s The Thing, a remake of 1951’s The Thing from Another World. Carpenter’s remake worked because it wasn’t a simple recycling of the […]
Few studios have built the reputation that Insomniac Games has. It has several hit series, including Spyro, Ratchet & Clank, Resistance, and a handful of smaller releases. But it is Marvel’s Spider-Man that truly saw its rise to glory. And now, Insomniac is bringing another fan-favorite superhero to life with Marvel’s Wolverine, one of Marvel’s […]
Science fiction is easily one of the most popular genres for both movies and television but when it comes to where sci-fi stories truly shine, that would be the small screen. With multiple episodes and, often, multiple seasons available for stories to fully unfold their mysteries and build complex, fascinating worlds, sci-fi thrives on television, […]
For the past four decades, Tim Burton has been one of the most prolific directors in Hollywood whose sensibilities have gone across genres and made billions of dollars at the box office, all while fully influencing pop culture. Though perhaps best known to some for his work on films like Beetlejuice, Edward Scissorhands, and Tim […]
At the end of Spider-Man: No Way Home, in order to protect the multiverse, Doctor Strange cast a spell that caused everyone to forget who Peter Parker is. Due to that incredible sacrifice, Peter entered Spider-Man: Brand New Day on something of an island, with none of his friends or family by his side. However, […]
