Squid Game Competitions As Played By Bts

Episode 40: New Year Red Light, Green Light In Squid Game, Red Light, Green Light is a fatal affair. In Run BTS, the winning team gets to eat tteokguk, aka rice-cake soup, and the losing team… does not. Part of the show’s 2018 Lunar New Year Special, the episode features the group wearing traditional hanbok, playing a variety of silly games, and practicing their calligraphy. During the episode, the group plays an adapted game of Red Light, Green Light competition in which the “tagger” has to yell out “Happy New Year” instead of “Red Light” and the “runners” have to bow after every step....

Star Trek Discovery Episode 9 Review Into The Forest I Go

Star Trek: Discovery Episode 9 In many ways, this early stretch of Star Trek: Discovery episodes has reminded me of the beginning of Agents of SHIELD‘s run. Like SHIELD, Discovery is a show shoehorned somewhat awkwardly into a much larger fictional universe. Like SHIELD, Discovery‘s introduction has shown narrative potential, but has been wildly uneven, perhaps a side effect of a show that is treading narrative water until a big plot twist that sends it into warp drive....

Star Trek Judgment Rites Was The Final Season The Original Series Deserved

Remarkably, though, it turns out that we never really had to wonder what adventures we could have joined the Enterprise for if the show had just stayed on the air a while longer. In the early ‘90s, developer Interplay Productions released two Star Trek games (Star Trek: 25th Anniversary and Star Trek: Judgment Rites) that combined the golden era mechanics of point-and-click adventure gaming with the episodic structure and stylings of the original Star Trek series....

Star Trek Strange New Worlds What You Should Know About Pike Spock And Number One

If you’ve slept on new TV Star Trek for the past several years, there’s a good chance you’re thinking of beaming back in with the debut of Star Trek: Strange New Worlds. And, in terms of understanding the future of where the franchise is headed, this new series is a pretty perfect place for a casual viewer to create their own personal Star Trek reboot. In all meaningful ways, Strange New Worlds is an approachable and less canon-obsessed Star Trek than some more recent entries....

Star Wars Episode Viii What We Know What Might Happen

“In the middle act of a movie or a book or anything else, not much happens. It sort of evolves the story, makes the plot more complicated.” – George Lucas on The Empire Strikes Back Disney may have had a lot riding on Star Wars: The Force Awakens – essentially, the future of an entire franchise – but next year’s Episode VIII brings potentially nail-biting risks of its own. It will, after all, have to follow on from the success of The Force Awakens – currently the third biggest film of all time in terms of ticket sales – and will also draw inevitable comparisons with The Empire Strikes Back....

Star Wars Rey S Parents Finally Have Names

While the conclusion of the Skywalker Saga revealed that Rey’s parents (played by Jodie Comer and Billy Howle) were forced to hide their baby daughter away on Jakku in order to protect her from Emperor Palpatine, and that her father was actually an imperfect clone of the Sith lord who lacked a connection to the Force, the movie never actually gave these characters proper Star Wars names. But a new tie-in novel, Shadow of the Sith by Adam Christopher, finally fixes this....

Star Wars The Book Of Boba Fett Villains Explained

No one said becoming a crime lord on Tatooine would be easy. Yet, Boba Fett thought it would be as simple as killing Bib Fortuna and taking a seat on Jabba the Hutt’s old throne. But as The Book of Boba Fett shows, that road is in fact a very bumpy one. The new daimyo of Mos Espa expected all of Jabba’s former subordinates to bow down and pay tribute....

Topics discussed include: the impact of the show on their lives, their favorite scene from the series, wildest scene or stunt, funniest moment, favorite fan interaction, and the thing they’ll miss the most about the show....

Superman Lois The Secrets Of Leslie Larr

Superman & Lois Episode 14 Since the very first episode, Leslie Larr has been a menacing and mysterious presence on Superman & Lois. The shining example of Morgan Edge’s plan to take over human bodies with Kryptonian souls (and powers) has been portrayed as everything from a loyal corporate right hand to a Kryptonian powerhouse capable of doing Edge’s dirty work to (in the latest episode) someone who can go toe-to-toe with a hero like Steel in a dramatic late season fight scene....

Supernatural Season 15 Episode 15 Gimme Shelter Review

Supernatural Season 15 Episode 15 Sam and Dean take a little backseat to this week’s episode directed by Supernatural alum Matt Cohen. Jack and Castiel are where the majority of the story takes place as they investigate a series of gruesome murders connected to a church. It’s a feel-good moment to have a Jack/Cass adventure this week. We didn’t see Cass when the season restarted this month, cueing a fun confused reaction on his face when the boys mention the Mrs....

Swamp Thing Episode 5 Review Drive All Night

Damn, this show deserves a better fate. I have wanted to avoid focusing on the negative too much, but we are at the halfway point of Swamp Thing’s first, and currently only, season, and things are picking up – but I am skeptical whether we’ll get a satisfying conclusion (even thought the finale was supposedly reworked to provide closure). “Drive All Night,” (yet another Springsteen song title turned episode title) is a visually exciting ghost story with a creepy tone, and a plot that drives Abby’s arc forward....

When I set out to collect the week’s best in paranormal pop culture news, I knew ahead of time I wanted to give a shout to Netflix’s Dead End: Paranormal Park.

And I figured there would be other movie and TV news within the realm of the weird....

That Time Breaking Bad Fans Held A Walter White Funeral

After taking out Jack and the neo-Nazis and saving Jesse Pinkman (Aaron Paul) one final time, Walter White (Bryan Cranston) dies in the place that made him feel alive: the meth lab. Despite wacko fan theories about Heisenberg’s possible survival, it was the show’s intent to make perfectly clear that the anti-hero we all loved, and hated, for five years was no more. And for most normal folk, that would be the end of thinking about Walt, at least until a rewatch of the legendary series, or until Better Call Saul was launched in 2015....

The 100 Season 7 Episode 16 Review The Last War

The 100 Season 7 Episode 16 Ultimately, The 100 turned in a series finale that’s better than the back half of its final season, but not by a whole lot. The use of two fan-favorite characters (Lexa and Abby), and a last-minute twist, are responsible for much of the emotionally satisfying material. So much of the rest, including the saber-rattling and Sheidheda skulking around, feel like a waste of precious time, plot missteps from earlier in the season that long overstayed their welcome....

The Addams Family 2 Sets 2021 Release Date With Teaser Trailer

The sequel, arriving via MGM’s United Artists banner, follows up the 2019 sleeper animated iteration of the often-adapted iconic 1960s spooky snap-happy sitcom, which went on to gross $203 million worldwide against a $24 million budget. Indeed, The Addams Family 2 was reportedly in the works less than a week after the first film’s October 11, 2019 bow, and signaled an October release date of its own for 2021. While the woeful year of 2020 obviously changed the trajectory of the entire entertainment industry, it appears that, in true Addams fashion, the rules didn’t apply to this sequel, which now remains on its original pre-pandemic course for Halloween 2021....

The Batman Viral Video Replaces Robert Pattinson With Adam West

For some viewers, there could not be a larger disparity between the pop art of the 60s movie and the gothic look of Matt Reeves’s film. But the Corridor Crew on YouTube found a way. A recently-posted video recreates The Batman’s first trailer, digitally replacing actors from the 2022 film with their 1966 counterparts. Instead of Robert Pattinson solving the clues of Paul Dano’s Riddler, we watch Adam West stare down Frank Gorshin....

The Best Comics Of 2020

The year started with such tenuous promise, and is ending the same way: slivers of hope among rivers of misery. But even with all the chaos, all the changes forced by the pandemic and that were coming anyway, we still got some incredible comics in 2020. Let us be abundantly clear: every work of art made in the last year is a small miracle. Every comic creator who put irons in the fire in a year that certainly didn’t lack fires deserves gratitude and commendation....
