Wandavision Explained Who Is Geraldine

First introduced in WandaVision episode 2, Scarlet Witch and Vision’s neighbor (and unwitting magical assistant) Geraldine was a bit of a surprise appearance. Let’s get right down to business, because there’s a lot going on with the mysterious Geraldine. Who is Geraldine, Really? We’ve known since the show was in the casting stages that Teyonah Parris was playing Monica Rambeau. So when Parris showed up with a different name on the street, it was a big clue that something was up....

Want To Get Into Anime Give Yourself A Break Watch The Dub

Dubs v. subs. The argument has been ongoing ever since anime first started gaining a large audience outside of Japan. Some prefer watching anime with an English dub. Others prefer watching the original Japanese audio with the aid of English subtitles. While to some this is merely a personal preference, the debate between the two camps can get extremely heated especially on the side of “sub purists.” To them, the only true way to experience anime is how it was “originally intended....

Was Captain America Super Soldier Almost Part Of The Mcu Canon

However, I recently heard an interesting rumor that I haven’t been able to shake. That rumor suggests that Super Soldier isn’t just based on an MCU film but at one point was meant to actually be part of the MCU canon. The only reason it apparently wasn’t added to the canon is simply that plans changed somewhere along the way. It’s the kind of rumor that is easy to dismiss as wishful thinking crafted by internet trolls....

We Are Not Alone Review Ghosts Naughtier More Grown Up Sibling

This new feature-length Dave comedy doesn’t waste any time: we’re straight into the action, discovering Earth has been invaded and conquered by the Gu’uns, a blue, large-foreheaded alien race with Very Big Guns. The Gu’uns don’t muck about – their takeover has included blowing up New Zealand, nixing everyone’s mobile phone signal and blasting the Chancellor of England into space (so it’s not all bad news), and in a brief appearance from comedian Miles Jupp as a familiarly bumbling, posh Prime Minister we learn Great Britain is now called Territory 78....

What Black Adam Means For The Future Of The Justice League Shazam And The Dceu

When the movie hits theaters this fall, it will not only introduce another god-like metahuman who is every bit as powerful as the Man of Steel and anyone else in the DC pantheon, but also bring the Justice Society of America to the big screen for the first time, including Hawkman (Aldis Hodge), Doctor Fate (Pierce Brosnan), Cyclone (Quintessa Swindell), and Atom Smasher (Noah Centineo). That’s a whole other elite superhero team entering the DCEU, one that historically predates the Justice League but is led by someone who has no qualms with killing the bad guys, a line Superman and his cohorts dare not cross....

What Makes The Playstation 5 Ssd Unique

All of that hype may leave you with the simple question: “What makes the PS5 SSD unique?” That’s a more than fair question that’s complicated somewhat by the fact that we haven’t gotten the chance to spend a significant amount of time with the PS5’s SSD and a lineup of next-gen games. However, if you’re wondering just what it is about the PS5’s SSD that not only makes it better than the PS4’s storage options but potentially more powerful than the Xbox Series X’ SSD, then we can begin to answer that question by breaking down the PS5 SSD’s various advancements over what has come before and what else is out there....

When The Godfather Changed Hollywood Forever

Paramount Pictures released a 4K Ultra HD edition of The Godfather Trilogy on March 22. The scope of the Corleone family saga is the story of 20th Century America. Over the course of the three films, Francis Ford Coppola delivers a multigenerational tale of corruption, vengeance, and family duty. The Godfather elevated mob movies to high art, paving the way for the street-level gangsters of Martin Scorsese’s Mean Streets and Goodfellas, the suburban family crimes of The Sopranos, and the original sinners of Boardwalk Empire....

Why Dawn Of The Dead Is Zack Snyder S Masterpiece

28 Days Later‘s Rage-infected psychopaths are largely responsible for revitalizing this gruesome subgenre, thanks to director Danny Boyle and writer Alex Garland’s vision. These two filmmakers saw potential in this corner of cinema that had yet to be unlocked. While Romero, the father of the modern zombie film, used the apocalypse to comment on society’s greed and prejudices, Boyle and Garland discovered more personal stories. How do you find the will to survive in a world where you might be forced to watch your loved ones die, try to kill you, or force you to kill them?...

Why Hereditary Is A Sublime Horror Comedy

When the dust settles – and the yelps subside – in the wake of Hereditary, we wonder if one thing will become more apparent with time: just how blackly comic this familial horror is. Writer-director Ari Aster’s debut feature may be filled with demonic dread, but its drama is also laced with desert-dry humor. Aster has cited Mike Leigh as an inspiration for his movie, and it certainly shows in Hereditary’s moments of kitchen sink drama: this is the latest in a long line of horror movies that depicts your typical family dinner as a blood-curdling battle ground (see also: Adam Wingard’s You’re Next and Tobe Hooper’s The Texas Chainsaw Massacre)....

Why Robin Williams Quit Marvel S Howard The Duck

Howard the Duck certainly has its charms (we’re big fans of it here), it’s undoubtedly something of a mess. And a good chunk of its reputation comes from how awkward the title character looks. Long before the days of the kinds of mo-cap CGI wizardry that is now commonplace in blockbusters, Howard the Duck relied on putting someone in a duck suit with animatronic eyes and bill. And while a similar technique was used effectively by Jim Henson’s Creature Shop in 1990’s excellent Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles movie, Lucasfilm’s Howard suit isn’t a particularly great cinematic achievement....

Why Sweet Tooth S Ending Is Ultimately Hopeful

In the world of Sweet Tooth, a deadly virus swept through the population 10 years ago, killing the majority of people who become infected. The arrival of this virus—The Sick—coincided with the emergence of hybrids, children who are born part human and part animal. No one knows which came first, the virus or the hybrids, or if one caused the other, but naturally people react to hybrids with fear and mistrust after “The Great Crumble....

Why The Yakuza Franchise Is Now Called Like A Dragon

The recent PlayStation State of Play showcase was full of game trailers and announcements, but arguably one of the biggest reveals was the long-awaited Western remake of Yakuza’s samurai spin-off Ryū ga Gotoku Ishin! (literally, Like a Dragon: Ishin!). But that was only the Yakuza franchise’s opening act. Earlier today, Sega revealed two more Yakuza games, Like a Dragon Gaiden: The Man Who Erased His Name and Like a Dragon 8....

Will Bridgerton Become The Next Game Of Thrones

This isn’t an unfamiliar Hollywood tale. After a massive commercial success, the entertainment industry tends to throw its money behind (for want of a better word) knock-offs—stories that may be good or moderately successful, but are only alike their culture-changing predecessors in the kinds of superficial ways that don’t actually matter that much. Take, for example, the big-screen adaptation of Eragon, which was greenlit following the success of the big-screen Lord of the Rings trilogy....

Wonder Woman 1984 Ending Explained

Wonder Woman 1984 fits a lot of story into its 2.5 hour runtime, especially in its action-packed third act as Diana faces off against not one, but two villains: Cheetah and Maxwell Lord. While audiences have been encouraged to think of the DC blockbuster as a relative standalone, there’s much about the sequel that harkens back to the first film (Steve Trevor, most of all) and there’s much about the movie that hints at what’s to come for our eponymous hero....

Zack Snyder Plays Along With The Boys Justice League Parody

Given the cynical view of superheroism held by The Boys, it wouldn’t be surprising if Snyder himself took umbrage. But instead, Snyder himself retweeted the trailer with the message “Congratulations to Director Bourke. Excited to see your vision realized.” The “Bourke” in question is Adam Bourke, the film director introduced in season two. A production of evil Vought International, Dawn of the Seven exists in the world as part of a propaganda campaign to shore up more trust in the Seven after the world learned about the company’s role in creating Supes....

Why Am I Watching This Firefly Lane And The Compulsion Of Newness

The series has been trending on Netflix for some weeks now and it appears to be very popular with viewers – more so than with critics – which is great, and no disrespect to anyone who loves the show. However, I personally thought it was quite bad. This isn’t a review and I’m not here for a debate on the merits – we are living in a world in crisis so anything that brings anyone joy is gold in my book....

15 Best Sega Genesis Games Ever

The Sega Genesis couldn’t quite match the power of the SNES, and it certainly didn’t have the name recognition as Nintendo’s new console. However, thanks to its speedy blue mascot, a slew of excellent arcade ports, and a marketing strategy that focused on older gamers, the Genesis gave the Super Nintendo the competition it sorely needed. Of course, we all know things didn’t pan out for Sega in the end....
