Explaining the DC Universe: Rebirth Ending and Controversy

This article contains majorDC Universe: Rebirthspoilers. And I can understand why. Instead it was altered by an outside force with godlike power. And that, more than anything else, is the source of the controversy. A decade was removed like a Jenga piece…it changed everything. Heroes that were legends became novices. Bonds between them were weakened and erased. Its definitely not a 10-part crossover. Watchmendidnt spring fully-formed from the minds of Alan Moore and Dave Gibbons....

Neil Gaiman’s Likely Stories: strange, wonderful, unmissable TV

Hes a great writer, and hes well known because of that fact. The fact that he does makes me feel better about us all. I think the first two episodes do exactly that, which is no small feat. Thats his lifestyle and hes comfortable with it. Also, why spoil it? One of the delights of Gaimans work is in not knowing whats going to happen next. Simon Powers isnt very likeable but he is very relatable....

The 100 season 3: trauma, free-will and perverse instantiation

Some fans have turned away completely while others had felt compelled to hold on more tightly than ever. I cant help but envy those who will later binge-watch this show in a cultural vacuum. Get rid of them and theres nothing left. Free will, even free will coupled with unimaginable pain, is preferable to the alternative. Because hes not our hero, we could even forgive him for being so seemingly weak....

Hulu’s The Path: Creator Jessica Goldberg Talks Season 1

You place the Meyerists right at the cusp of that moment. Ad content continues below JESSICA GOLDBERG:To me that seemed really fun.

Sailor Moon Crystal Act 33 Review: Infinity 7 – Transformation / Super Sailor Moon

However, the declaration that Hotaru will have to die splits them up again. There were some powerful moments in this episode. Usagis transformation into Super Sailor Moon was epic. And to end on Chibi-Usa depowered and not breathing… talk about a sucker punch! And the music all throughout was just superb. The score is just awe-inspiring! Something should definitely be said about the Senshis power up here. I find what happens here far more poignant, but not as much as it could be....

Star Dominic Cooper Gives a Sermon on Preacher

Preacher has arrived on AMC and star Dominic Cooper spreads the gospel truth about the show. Had you heard of the comics before when they came to you with this? Dominic Cooper: I dont think I had. This was one everyone was mentioning. So I was just looking for something really good. I said, Is there any worth tapping into? And this was mentioned. I think Ruth had a copy of it....

The Flash Season 2 Finale Review: The Race of His Life

It has been put out there that perhaps I was a little too hard on last weeks episode. The death of Henry Allen wasnt necessarily a bad thing, but the timing of Henry Allens death was. But well get back to that in a minute. Ad content continues below But at least The Race of His Life had the shows heart again. The whole go Team Flash! That hurt, and it was a good way to twist the knife for fans and illustrate Barrys frustration....

Dawn of the Dead: The Guts and Gluttony of a Classic

George Romero is the master of zombie horror and the maestro of political commentary. He refuses to differentiate between humans and zombies; rather, he points to their similarities. As Nicki Minaj might sing, the night (and mayhem) is still young. Their slow gait and vapid expressions are no different than that of a passive window shopper. The exclamation, Lets go shopping! The protagonists are rabid consumers, who are as ridiculous and cartoonish as the zombies in their insatiable greed....

Holy Hell! Review

New documentary exposes the dark side of enlightenment. Buddha-field is Sanskrit for the celestial realm or pure abode of a Buddha or bodhisattva. Like all cults, Buddhafield began as a paradise. They pay rent but also feed the community chest. They do service hours, helping handicapped members and the sick. Today we might see them in an Old Navy commercial. Director Will Allen was raised Catholic. He was an altar boy with a strong sense of spiritual curiosity....
