If nobody is going to call outIndiana Jonesfor swastika-sporters, theyre not going to question you. Wolfenstein 3Dbroke ground in the mechanics, but it left the visual flare and style to its successors. What makes it interesting is that it did try and has continued to over the last 20 years. It has been able to successfully reinvent itself at two further points before now. The game has its fans and although mostly forgettable was perfectly competent....
Late filmmaker Malik Bendjelloul’s Searching for Sugar Man was a fan’s masterpiece. “The Old New Dylan Lives,” indeed. Thats where the white South Afrikaner fans come into the picture. And just like their father, still in touch with their roots. For Rodriguez, that means literally.
James Grays beautifully filmed period piece The Immigrant wastes three great actors on poorly developed characters. Did I mention that Orlando is also Brunos cousin? One of the strange quirks ofThe Immigrantis how small it seems despite the expansive setting Gray is working with. For the 100 minutes or so before that, however,The Immigrantslowly turns into a slog. The Immigrantopens on Friday, May 16.

This feature contains spoilers for Captain America: The Winter Soldier and the TV show Agents Of SHIELD. Hydra is, in an almost literal sense, the evil version of SHIELD. But that said… what does Hydra want? And how might that affect future MCU projects? Weve had a think about where things might go for Hydra in future MCU projects. They are, quite definitively, the series main villains. I dont necessarily expect to see him in the show, but hear about him?...
The first story cycle from Archie’s zombie comic reaches its bitter, bloody and beautiful conclusion. This comic is a huge reason why. The solution is simple: Keep letting Roberto Aguirre-Sacasa and Francesco Francavilla doing whatever the hell they want. Like its predecessors, this installment carefully subverts expectations. By placing the seemingly dull character of Hubert Smithers in the spotlight. The long-suffering butler of the Lodge family, Smithers is one of the most one-dimensional characters in the Archieverse....
John Malkovich plays Blackbeard in NBC’s Crossbones, which starts later this month. What can we expect? NBCs new pirate dramaCrossbonesis being billed as the story of Blackbeard. But Im seeing a lot more here, and hoping for a really provocative drama. And then theres John Malkovich. But hes known for his elegance as well. Why is this guy playing the notoriously brutal Blackbeard? The answer lies in the source material....
Ken Watanabe does not grace enough American movies. How much changed along the way from when you got involved with the project to the finished film? This year marks the 60thanniversary ofGodzilla. The first original is 1954. After 60 years, even after 60 years, people are still fascinated by Godzilla. The people are still fascinated because the nuclear power terrifies us, the fear of nuclear energy. Then Gareth has a great vision of the same thing between the original and now....
Undoubtedly, Dinklage loved every minute of Tyrions you cant handle the truth breakdown of Westerosi law. However, I do believe that Im getting ahead of myself, as much else happened in this episode. It also marks the first of hopefully many appearances by Mark Gatiss. A cross between Gordon Gekko and Sheldon Adelson, there is something downright patriotic about Gatiss scene. Its downright American in our post-Citizens United world. Aye, the only body part of his body that is truly safe is his tongue....
), then Joe Abercrombie should be an author whose work is at the top of your reading list. Joe burst onto the scene in 2006 with his darkly violent, funny, and freshThe First Lawfantasy trilogy. The results were again hugely enjoyable. What different pressure has this added to the writing process? Its meant a tight turnaround, but then the books are a lot shorter than my others have been. Youre known for a very adult throw in of fantasy....
Million Dollar Arm almost overcomes a predictable story arc thanks to its initial set-up and Jon Hamms charisma. The first half of the movie is the better one. Hamm is believably gruff yet capable of warmth, while Bell does her quirky-sexy thing quite well. Ultimately, the movie lacks any real teeth. Lets call it a single with the runner managing to steal second base as well. Like us onFacebookand follow us onTwitterfor all news updates related to the world of geek....
Corey Feldman teams up with Danny Trejo to fight aliens on the latest episode of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. Newtralizer is an amalgamation of amalgamations. His goal is to execute EVERYBODY, regardless of whether theyre Kraang, mutant, or human. It was rushed, but Slash had his redemption and his story was done. They can parkour around rooftops for hours as a warm-up; April cant. Raph can jump from building to building no problem; Casey cant....
The storyline of a wrestling promotion’s return from death is told in film form. It’s ambitious, but does it work? During this off time, the story was told ina variety of ways. Some of it was good. Some of it was a little too silly. A lot of it was frustrating to wait through because you want to seewrestling happen. They were released sporadically, until the coming ofNational Pro Wrestling Day, where they were just about daily....
