I felt my world shift profusely, due to the overall experience of witnessing something out of this world. It feels like there’s a clear distinction between two periods of your life; whatever colorless world

 The God of Mischief has returned, bringing his signature chaos with him in Loki Season 2! Tom Hiddleston picked up the not-quite-horned mantle again, returning as Loki Odinson this past week in an appropriately twisty sci-fi episode called “Ouroboros” written by Eric Martin.

New ‘Goosebumps’ Series Review: A Worthwhile Reinventing of a Childhood Favorite

Growing up, I had a complicated relationship with Goosebumps. I was a huge proponent of reading and loved reading every book written by R. L. Stine. There wasn’t one in my school library that I didn’t devour and if it wasn’t there, my mother bought it from me on our weekly trip to the mall. I was obsessed, to say the

Review: ‘Ahsoka’ Season 1 Finale

The Ahsoka season 1 finale gave us so many memorable and moving Star Wars moments, but definitely left fans with a lot of questions. This season has been full of incredible storytelling.

Book Review: ‘Percy Jackson and the Olympians: The Chalice of the Gods’ by Rick Riordan

Man, the stress of senior year. Passing classes, filling out college applications, and of course getting those letters of recommendation. It’s bad enough for mortals, but for Percy Jackson, it’s a whole other level. Percy is hoping to attend New Rome University with his girlfriend Annabeth Chase.

Review: Prime Video’s ‘Totally Killer’

When Ron Possible said “Time travel, it’s a cornucopia of disturbing concepts” back in 2003’s Kim Possible: A Stitch in Time, he was on to something. Depending on the film or television show and the rules of time travel setup, it can get complicated quickly.

Review: ‘The Exorcist: Believer’

Here we go again. Another exorcism movie brought to us by Hollywood after decades of failing to match the one that made them a mainstream commodity: The Exorcist. And another sequel to the property, no less. For the most part, it’s hard to have anticipation for this genre of horror anymore. Most of them try to replicate the shock-filled brilliance of
