Sometimes going into a movie or screener knowing as little as possible is the right way to go. No preconceived notions, therefore no expectations. This feat might seem nearly impossible with how prevalent spoilers and promotional material are nowadays. However, if possible, doing so allows for a completely different experience and interaction with the material on screen. That was how I
Read MoreWhere do we even go from here? A question I also posed at the beginning of the season. Actually, where do we really go from last week as we had THE biggest moment in Rick and Morty history? Rick’s biggest obstacle has always been himself but this time we truly saw what that meant. In “Unmortricken,” episode 5 of the seventh
Read MoreFor some it’s Thanksgiving, but for sci-fi fans across the globe, it’s Doctor Who Day! For those blissfully unaware, November 23rd marks 60 years of the world’s longest-running science fiction program. Spanning a whopping soon-to-be forty seasons, a TV movie, and countless expanded universe media, Doctor Who is one of the most prolific and beloved franchises in television history. In the
Read MoreLast November Rebecca Yarros introduced us to Violet Sorrengail and the dragons of Navarre with her hit novel Fourth Wing. This November, she takes us back there as Violet and Xaden try to manage having a real relationship while leading a revolution and finding a way to destroy the venin that are coming to destroy everyone. All that and a teenage
Read MoreIt’s another episode of Sloth Baby Productions… just kidding. The Cosmic Circle podcast is back, and we saw The Marvels just like (hopefully) all of you and had some thoughts about the return of Captain Marvel (Brie Larson), Kamala Khan (Iman Vellani) and Monica Rambeau (Teyonah Parris). Their first big screen team-up featured Nick Fury (Samuel L. Jackson), an interesting villain
Read MoreWell Whovians, we’ve nearly made it. We’re at just under a week until Doctor Who has returned to our screens with the first of three-anniversary specials, celebrating 60 years of sci-fi glory. If that wasn’t monumental enough to tune in, the specials also feature the return of David Tennant as The Doctor and Catherine Tate of Donna Noble. For fans of
Read MoreTrolls Band Together is out in theaters as of this past weekend. It’s a brightly colored boy-band symphony of animation and heart, but don’t expect a high-note encore to the previous two Trolls films. The film’s lighthearted message of familial love and self-acceptance, set to a catchy soundtrack and featuring incredible animation, is occasionally overshadowed by moments of questionable humor that raise the
Read MoreHappy holiday season dear readers! How has this year flown by? It seems like just yesterday that we were setting off fireworks and headed to the beach. But now the air is getting colder and if you’re like Lorelei Gilmore, you just might smell snow in the air. However, before we completely dive into the holiday season which comes with December,
Read MoreIt’s been years since Scott Pilgrim Vs. the World came our way and even longer since the start of the comic, but at long last the drought has ended! Netflix’s new series Scott Pilgrim Takes Off is a fresh new take on the world of Scott and Ramona Flowers in anime form. It has the classic anime OP and everything. As
Read MoreThe Hunger Games: The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes has been released at long last! Fans of the novel have been waiting on the edge of our seats to return to Panem on the silver screen. Lionsgate satisfied us with a solid, if imperfect, adaptation of the story focused on Lucy Gray Baird and Coriolanus Snow. But what we really need
Read MoreWith Godzilla: Minus One making its way to movie theatres very soon and Monarch: Legacy of Monsters releasing on AppleTV+, I embarked on a rather ambitious project in preparation: watch every live-action Godzilla movie produced by Toho and rank them from worst to best. Before this project, I had already seen Hideaki Anno and Shinji Higuchi’s Shin Godzilla alongside the animated
Read MoreMonarch: Legacy of Monsters, much like Godzilla, is a kaiju of an experience. The new show aims to give the same feel as the current Monster-verse films, offering titan mayhem and even Godzilla himself. Apple TV+ certainly has the money to experiment with such a task, and for the most part, no penny is wasted on the small moments it becomes a
