Press Start: Gaming As The Grieving Process

One of my college modules this semester is on the history and psychology of video games. This week, our lecturer asked us if we could give him any examples of a game that made us see something in a different way. And after thinking about it for a while, I gave him my example; Mass Effect […]

Bill & Ted Might Meet Death Again in Third Movie

For many years there has been a lot of talk about a third Bill & Ted movie. And no wonder! Bill & Ted’s Excellent Adventure is, well, excellent. The good news is that there is a script and the potential title is Bill & Ted Face The Music. And to make this better, both Keanu […]

Luke Cage Season 2 Will Bring Sweet Christmas in June

Sweet Christmas, indeed. Earlier this week Netflix released a teaser trailer for season 2 of Luke Cage. It doesn’t show much other than Mike Colter being his usual (badass) self, but we do have a release date! Get ready to watch season 2 on June 22. The trailer doesn’t show any new characters, but we […]

The Shape of Water Soars To Success At The Oscars

The 90th Academy Awards happened this weekend with The Shape of Water emerging as the big winner of the night, claiming four Oscars. Best Director, Best Original Score (the second one for Alexandre Desplat), Best Production Design and Best Movie.

Netflix’s Sabrina Confirms Miranda Otto As Aunt Zelda

Netflix’s adaptation of Sabrina is a funny thing. For starters, instead of being an adaptation of the regular comic book, it’s an adaptation of The Chilling Adventures of Sabrina, which presents a more supernatural take on the character. The show went from “Is this really necessary?” to “YES, SHUT UP AND DO THIS NOW!” with […]

Pull List – February 2018 Week 3

Welcome to a new Pull List! This week’s going to be a bit bigger than usual, for a good reason. Apart from the stuff that we pick at comic book stores we’ll also be writing about what we pick in bookstores, digital, and whatnot. And since it was my birthday recently this will be packed […]

The Cloverfield Paradox Review – Why?!

The Cloverfield series has always been a strange one for a number of reasons. The main one is that Cloverfield embraced viral marketing like no film had ever done it before. It was a smart thing to do, because the ARG involving the first movie meant that with that the marketing was done. People would […]

Westworld Season 2 Gets Trailer

I don’t care about the Super Bowl, at least when it comes to the sports part. I care about the trailers. Practically everyone keeps throwing money at the screen to show trailers or commercials during the breaks. And usually they’re quite big.But this is the one that caught my eye for real. After two years […]

American Gods Season Two Finds Showrunner

The moment Bryan Fuller and Michael Green left American Gods felt like the Dark Ages. Starz insisted the show would happen, but Gillian Anderson left the show and Kristin Chenoweth says she doesn’t know if she’ll be in it. It also felt like it took them forever to find a new showrunner. And add to that […]

Pull List – February 2018 Week 1

Welcome to this week’s edition of Pull List. In it, I’ll be talking about the stuff I’ve been getting at my local comic store for the past few weeks! When it comes to my local comic book store (Sub City in Galway, if anyone wonders), I don’t really have a pull list in the sense […]
