Quantum Break Review

Quantum Break is Remedy’s highly-anticipated follow-up to the Alan Wake games. Was it worth the wait? And I wish Id had the willpower to do so. The digital series is meant to be interactive, too. After the end of each act of the game, the story switches to the villains point of view. The Junctions arent all that interesting, though, and mainly serve to decide which episode to play next....

Scandal: The Miseducation of Susan Ross Review

The truth was the biggest loser in last night’s Scandal. Read our review… ThisScandalreview contains spoilers. Well, no one was interested in the truth in last nightsScandal. We saw a new side of Olivia; a side I dont really wish to see all that much. Does Olivia even actually believe Mellie is the best candidate, or is she just making herself believe that?

The 100: Stealing Fire Review

Death rears its head yet again on a very dark episode of The 100. ThisThe 100review contains spoilers. After that,The 100never looked back, fully embracing the ugliness of fluid, subjective morality. The same goes for Murphy, who was once one of the most despised characters in the first season. Each commander recognized Clarkes warrior spirit, a quality prized by the Grounder culture. To claim rights to the A.I. is not enough, thoughone must prove themselves in the conclavea competition that rewards the strongest and most ruthless....

Supernatural: Red Meat Review

Things are heating up for the Winchesters in the latest Supernatural episode. It all starts off with a great THEN montage, which I cant avoid commenting on. This time, they showed a sped up rendition of the many times Sam and Dean have died. Gone are the jokey episodes when Dean might die while eating a funny taco. This time, Death plays for keeps. The sound design on this episode was, for the most part, sparse....

The Americans: Experimental Prototype City of Tomorrow Review

It involves turning an otherwise ordinary item into one of the most important totems in the world. Thats narrative magic pure and simple. Not much happens on the surface of Experimental Prototype City of Tomorrow. Instead the majority of the action takes place exclusively in the characters capable, yet tortured heads. And the majority of the episode deals with the nuts and bolts of that decision. Obviously the easiest, most direct solution is to kill him....

Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.: Watchdogs Review

What happens when Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. incorporates a tried and true concept from the comics? You get a very satisfying episode. ThisAgents of S.H.I.E.L.D.review contains spoilers. Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. Yeah, dont worry, I had to google him too. Remember Blake, he used to be Coulsons partner? Worked for Victoria Hand? Was crippled by Deathlok? Yeah, if he didnt pop up again this week, I wouldnt have remembered him either. But that doesnt mean Blake isnt effective as this Inhuman hating zealot....

Archer Season 7 Review

Throughout its first six seasons,Archerhas been paradoxically both welcome to and resistant of change. The narrative change-ups were much welcome and, in a way, creatively admirable. Unfortunately, despite the drastic changes in controls and purpose,Archerstill somehow got a little stale. Some time mid-way through season six it seemed like the show may have become too self-referential. Im happy to report that the third time seems to be the charm in this case....

Batman v Superman v Heroism

Did Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice end up sabotaging the future of the DC Extended Universe? This article containsBatman v Superman: Dawn of Justicespoilers. The DC Extended Universe is doomed. Well, not exactly. However, the problem for the DC Extended Universe isnt one of economics. Theres plenty of room for interpretation within that sentence, but its a constant, fairly unbending rule. Theres no room for that kind of altruism or optimism in Zack Snyders DC Extended Universe, though....

Where does saying goodbye to Bobbi and Hunter leave SHIELD? Loeb:This is one of the things aboutAgents of SHIELDthat we think is so important. That scene at the end was in the writers room. Then it came out on the page and it played on the day. It wasnt just the fact that it was playing that way. Henstridge:Yeah, it was so sad. I cant imagine a S.H.I.E.L.D. where we didnt have Henry Simmons and Adrianne Palicki and Nick Blood....
