Theres deliberateness to Fassbenders responses and also ease. He knows this character like a constellation. When we last saw David in ScottsPrometheus, things werent looking too good for the android. He also teases just how his Davids relationship has morphed with Shaw in the intervening years betweenPrometheusandCovenant.

Is Lack of Continuity the X-Men Franchise’s Secret Weapon?

It’s a common complaint that X-Men films and continuity hardly walk hand in hand. But is this really a problem? This article comes fromDen of Geek UK. Was Wade Wilson a young mutant in the 70s or an average man given superpowers in the 2010s? Was Emma Frost a child in the late seventies or an adult in the early sixties? Was Boliver Trask Bill Duke in 2006 or Peter Dinklage in 1973?...

Seeso’s My Brother, My Brother And Me Is Must-Watch Regional Comedy

These are the guys you want to get advice from. Watch the first episode here! Comedy Central is spending time withDetroiters. And by over-the-top, I mean they throw a full-on Spider Parade in downtown Huntington in episode one. The worry when a show descends on a town like this is that the townspeople become the joke. Huntington has been skeptical of this kind of spotlight before. British chef Jamie Oliver came to the rescue nonetheless, offering a Food Revolution and a reality show....

Logan: The Challenges of a Risky Superhero Movie

It had been a fairly warm February day in New York by the time evening arrived. It may not be the last. Its a movie that has certainly been near and dear to all of the creatives hearts. For me, its Sir Patricks best performance. And its invited a really amazing filming opportunity. Presumably unlike the competition. Says Kinberg, I think we feel an obligation to do that and an opportunity to do that....

Patrick Stewart interview: Logan, X-Men, Donald Trump

I found it moving in a way that superhero films generally arent. Was it emotional for you making it? There were moments during production, yeah. So it was almost sequential then. We went in sequence. It never happens like that! But one of the reasons was because I had to be in rehearsal here in London. We are in London, arent we? German fans are wild! It was the same withStar Trek....

Girls Season 6 Episode 3 Review: American Bitch

Girls tackles another bottle episode in “American Bitch.” Here is our review! This certainly invites comparisons to season twos One Mans Trash, but theyre not actually all that similar. Its less like One Mans Trash and more likeMy Dinner with Andre. Ill concede its easily the best episode of the season so far. Its a difficult scenario to fall firmly on one side or the other. Both Hannah and Palmer present convincing arguments....

How the GameCube Made Nintendo Cynical

Nintendo’s dream console became the seed for things to come. They might have even found themselves out of business shortly thereafter. Yet, as Nintendo prepares to launchthat exact consolein 2017, nobody seems too surprised. Is that because times have changed and gamers demand something different? Nintendo didnt always behave like this, though. They werent always so interested in producing hardware so fundamentally different from everything else on the market. The N64 lost the console sales race to Sonys PlayStation by an astonishing 69....

The Walking Dead Season 7 Episode 11 Review: Hostiles and Calamities

Eugene is trapped in the Sanctuary in the latest episode of The Walking Dead. Here is our review! ThisWalking Deadreview contains spoilers. Unlike Negans over-the-top crudity, Eugenes lack of self-awareness is the humor this show continues to need. His early moments with the Savior henchman and Negans wives are especially funny. Its refreshing to see a character thats not interested in punching or shooting his way out of dangerous situations....

Dragon Ball Super Episode 8 Review: Goku Makes an Entrance! A Last Chance from Lord Beerus?!

ThisDragon Ball Superreview contains spoilers. Dragon Ball Super Episode 8 God or no God, you will know the shame of humiliation. For all of the Vegeta-heads out there, this episode makes for a bit of a bittersweet offering. That being said, it still feels like this battle could have been handled a little more creatively. The visual hits diminishing returns at a certain point. There are other ways in which Beerus could have demonstrated Vegetas helplessness here....

James Mangold interview: how Logan bucks the superhero trend

Its a road-trip movie, its western, its neo-noir, its science fiction. But overwhelmingly, its a portrait of three outcasts and how they interact. Its some specialty of the house that I had a couple of days ago and I thought, Wow. I cant do avocados. Dear me, no. But theres that amazing line in the film about avocados. Im not a box of avocados! I thought that was great. I found the tone really refreshing a superhero film with that gritty, western kind of tone....

Star Wars Rebels Season 3 Episode 17 Review: Through Imperial Eyes

Agent Kallus proves his mettle in a tense, well-crafted episode. ThisStar Wars Rebelsreview contains spoilers. I tensely wondered who was going to die, then laughed harder than I have in a while. Instead of a neat lesson, we get a really solid story of intrigue within the Imperial ranks. In the course of Kallus plan, the characters themselves dont always know whats going on. After all, Kallus is an agent, a spy, for a reason....
