We’re Ready to RSVP for Wedding Horror Comedy Ready or Not

Back in June, we got a gander at the first trailer for Matt Bettinelli-Olpin and Tyler Gillette’s ensemble horror-comedy Ready or Not, about a bride (Samara Weaving) who realizes soon after the ceremony that she’s married into a very sick and twisted family—and that she may not survive her wedding night. The film’s release is…

Mattel’s New Star Wars Barbies Are Amazingly Extra

When you think of “Star Wars Barbies” as a concept, you think it would be very easy for Mattel to just put Barbie in a Princess Leia costume and call it a day. Which, to be fair, Mattel has indeed done. But it has also gone beyond that to deliver two extra Star Wars Barbies…

Legion‘s Heady Series Finale Brought Its Time Traveling Story Full Circle

The Star Trek Movies You Mostly Don’t Like Are Now Owned by the Same Company That Owns the Trek TV Shows You Do Like [Corrected]

Allow us to introduce you to the latest inconsequential benefit of our megacorp dystopia. I have to admit it, as far as incredibly minor bright sides to the horrifying rise of media studio megamergers go, “At least CBS owns the Kelvin Timeline Star Trek movies” is not as immediately exciting as “At least the X-Men…

Everything You Need to Know About Eisenhorn, the Peculiar Star of the Live-Action Warhammer 40K TV Series

The fact that it’s somehow taken until 2019 for Games Workshop to attempt to bring the rich, ridiculous fiction of its grimdark Warhammer 40,000 universe to live-action is peculiar enough. That Gregor Eisenhorn is the face of that long-awaited push, even more so. Need a quick trip to the Black Library to brush up on…

The Very Hollywood Reason You Might Not Know Neil Gaiman Wrote Princess Mononoke‘s English Dub

Princess Mononoke is one of Hayao Miyazaki’s finest, but its epic tale of gods can only be matched in fantasy for the weird story behind its arrival on Western shores in 2000. One notable part of that often forgotten history? Neil Gaiman wrote the English script…although it was pretty hard to find his credit. There…

You Don’t Need a Blacklight to Appreciate This Art, But It Helps

Say the word “blacklight” and you either think of cheesy dorm-room decor or a means to find stains on a bed. The connotations are not what’d you call good. For artists, though, blacklight can give already cool images a bit of a kick, and that’s what’s happening in this brand new art show. The show is called…

All Aboard!—io9 Discusses Infinity Train

While the first season of Infinity Train was an absolute joyride, the recent news that the creative team’s already hard at work on even more episodes means that there’s much more to Tulip, One-One, and Attius’ story than what’s been revealed so far. With that in mind, a bunch of us at io9 who’ve been…

A New Study Reminds Us How Ridiculous Spoiler Culture Has Become

Not a day goes by without someone, somewhere on the internet, feeling the need to express how they’ve been personally harmed by a news site focused on genre entertainment that committed the unforgivable sin of running headlines that very vaguely allude to the interesting parts of films and shows. “I have been slain by spoilers,”…
