2 Months of Un-Hulk-Like Calm Went Into Making This Incredible Avengers Flipbook

Remember how proud you were of the stickman riding a skateboard flipbook you made in your high school chemistry textbook?

I’m Still Not Over the Bob-omb Thing

It’s been weeks since I finished Paper Mario: The Origami King. I’ve since moved on to another replay of Fallout 4, this time delving into the moral dilemma that is playing as a raider in the Nuka-World storyline. But nothing that Fallout 4 (or most other games) makes me experience can compare to the emotional…

Rebecca Sugar and Noelle Stevenson Would Like to Remind You That They Fought to Make Animation More Queer

With both Steven Universe and She-Ra and the Princesses of Power having finished their respective stories and becoming shining examples of this current moment in queer representation in animation, it can be exceedingly easy to forget that up until very recently, queer characters more or less didn’t exist in the animation space outside of being…

The Cassian Andor Star Wars Show Adds Good Omens‘ Adria Arjona

A great spy sneaks up on you without you even knowing it. And so it’s rather appropriate that the upcoming Star Wars show about Rebel spies just added actress Adria Arjona. Deadline reports that Arjona is joining the upcoming Disney+ show that will focus on Cassian Andor, played by Diego Luna. Set before the events…

Why Do We Celebrate Spider-Man Day on (Probably) the Wrong Day?

Every August 1, social media lights up in celebration of one of comics’ greatest heroes: the amazing, spectacular, ultimate, and every so often sensational Spider-Man. It does so because August 1 is “Spider-Man Day,” a celebration of the character’s debut in August 1962’s Amazing Fantasy #15. But why do we celebrate it on August 1…

All the Big Summer (Streaming) Blockbusters of 2020

Black Widow. Wonder Woman 1984. Fast and Furious 9. No Time to Die. These were meant to be some of the big summer blockbusters of 2020. And yet, none of them have been released yet. We all know why—the novel coronavirus—but in the place of those films, something strange happened. New movies… did come out.…

See Leia’s Rise of Skywalker Lightsaber in All Its Glory

Star Wars without lightsabers is like life without sun. The Jedi weapon is one of the most recognizable pieces of one of the world’s most popular franchises and a truly elegant feat of design.

Robert Pattinson Tried to Lie His Way Off the Tenet Set for His The Batman Screen Test

Ah, but Christopher Nolan, he is a man wise to deception. Fooling the creator of Memento? Not so easy. Okay, so maybe Christopher Nolan isn’t a master genius; he might, in fact, be the guy who keeps pushing for Tenet to be released during a pandemic. But he is, at least, not all that easy…

Disney’s Animated Series The Owl House Now Has a Confirmed Bisexual Character

For Disney, it’s a surprising, unprecedented move. The world of animation is slowly becoming a more progressive place in terms of representation, largely due to the hard work of creators working against the structures of an industry that is, by and large, resistant to change, especially of the sort that can cost it money.

Christopher Eccleston to Return as the 9th Doctor in a New Series of Audio Dramas

Christopher Eccleston was the actor who brought the Doctor into the modern era, but his tenure was short and (to many) controversial, and it wouldn’t have been surprising to see him never reprise his role. Fortunately, that won’t be the case. Announced today by Big Finish Productions, the firm behind the excellent series of Doctor…

This Cast Photo Brings Together the Ragtag Heroes of BBC’s The Watch

This is not a Discworld adaptation you’ve seen before. BBC’s newest attempt to adapt Terry Pratchett’s seminal fantasy series is The Watch, a modernized, slickly stylish take on Pratchett’s City Watch, a subsection of the Discworld universe influenced by noir, cynicism, and procedurals. In short: these misfits are trying to keep the city safe. And…

Watch This Classic Ghostbusters Special Effect Come to (After)Life

I don’t often think of Ghostbusters as a pioneering special effects film. But it did include a lot of neat effects as it took its madcap scientists and made them paranormal protectors, and seeing those effects make their way onto the screen is pretty impressive. Recently, the Ghostbusters YouTube account posted a video showcasing some…
