Dont let the aw shucks charm and disarmingly neurotic gumption of Seth MacFarlanes Albert fool you. Too bad his second featureA Million Ways to Die in the Westis shooting mostly blanks. There is no doubt that MacFarlane is a comic force to be reckoned with. As loud as critics may howl, there is a reasonFamily Guyis preparing to enter its fourteenth season. And 2012sTedis as hilarious as, well, a plush teddy bear dropping some f-bombs....
Disneys live-action re-telling of Sleeping Beauty will put you into a heavy slumber. Does that make sense? He gets his chance when the sitting king decides he wants to invade the Moors. The king, naturally, wants Maleficent dead. Like us onFacebookand follow us onTwitterfor all news updates related to the world of geek. AndGoogle+, if thats your thing! Rating: 2 out of 5
Still largely introductory, Sailor Moon establishes its supporting cast in the second episode of the original series. Um…hello?!? One of these things is not like the others. The pacing of these episodes is interesting, and something that definitely sets anime apart from western animation. A lot of time is spent establishing mood and motivation. Usagis crush on Motoki is purely a product of her civilian life. The resemblance he has to my dad....
The shape-shifting South African actor on Maleficent, Angelina Jolie and Chappie. It was the kind of acting that I liked. So Ive never done a role as myself, ever. Its doing a radically different something else. I need to feel something in the role. Certainly as an actor you should probably hang onto humanity in your actions even if it is a film. you better have a reason why this guy would behave this way....
Meanwhile, DC were doing something pretty interesting around this time period. Did the film version have the same shock factor? To a certain degree, yes. Generally this Spidey sequel was advertised as a multi-villain bust-up with some family history revelations thrown in. Was knowing this kind of information before the film even started a bit disappointing? Maybe, but did the film make up for it in other ways? (which doesnt feature in theWinter Soldiercomic at all)....
We’re holding a free screening of a crime classic of your choice next week. NB: This piece contains spoilers. The city it takes place in is unnamed and filmed in muted colours. Red is the only bold colour used and only when it feels like a descent into a hellish underworld. It rains constantly and everywhere appears to flourishing amidst unrelenting decay. These contradictions feed into the plot itself. The two constants within these narrative shifts are Mills and Somerset, caught up in something increasingly dark....
Are you going to allow a way in or should people really go back and read that first volume? Were both veterans of the first issue. And weve carried that skillset over toEmpire, trust me. But now, its time to crack all of that stuff open. Not immediately, which is part of the issue. Hes got to find something. It begins on the anniversary of that death. Across the empire, it is a day of holiness....
Poor controls aside, Monochroma is an atmospheric and thoughtful journey through a shadowy and puzzle-filled world. As you play, countless questions will start to formulate in your mind: Where are we going? Why is that red? Why is this huge guy in the striped sweater so intent on chasing us? I oddly never had too much of a problem with the controls during the chase sequences, though. There are also a few performance issues to contend with as well....
We kick off our reviews of the remastered original series of Sailor Moon with Usagi’s Beautiful Transformation. With the much anticipatedpremiere ofSailor Moon Crystal, the original anime is being re-released, remastered, and repackaged. What better time to go over the original 90s anime classic with a sharp, critical eye? So, here we begin with the very first episode ofBishoujo Senshi Sailor Moon. Ad content continues below The only glaring introduction is that of Mamoru....
The upcomingGuardians Of The Galaxysees Marvel, for the first time, indulging in an interstellar action adventure. Its a path that cinema has trodden before, unsurprisingly although rarely with such a budget behind it. Instead, back in the 80s and 90s, filmmakers had to make do with what they had. As it turned out, they managed really rather well. Its a huge, expensive, space-faring epic, with a plot that lets the side down....
It does all this, and looks great in the process. The hacking mechanic here is blissfully simple, and you’re able to pick everything up in minutes. Many people can also be the victim of a hack, which opens up various possibilities. Theres a vast amount of to do, thats for sure. This hacking isnt always present, though, at least not until you hack into the regions CtOS mainframe. Once hacked, the region opens up....
Things got a little crazy in tonight’s new episode of 24: Live Another Day. Up to this point,24: Live Another Dayhas been a sluggish return to the small screen for Jack Bauer. This limited-run felt different because it jumped back into the shows universe rather smoothly after a four-year absence. The first four hours showed us that24could return without skipping a beat but that wasnt necessarily a good thing. Tonights episode, which chronicles hour 3:00 4:00 p....
Kyle Higgins discusses writing a comic about superhero labor unions, C.O.W.L. and working with Image Comics. The Image Revolution continues. Can you talk about the genesis of the project? Where did the spark forC.O.W.L.come from? It started as something that made me laugh. He laughed and said yeah, maybe the villains are villains because they couldnt get in. The idea stuck with me all day, and that night I tried to write a script for it....
