‘Net Neutrality’ Explained

Despite all its persistent coverage of late, net neutrality continues to be misunderstood. With the name net neutrality it is difficult to see why the matter merits interest, never mind understanding. However, it is an issue disregarded at one’s peril. Some may ask (may even have asked you)  ‘But how does it affect me?’, a question that they may well offer […]

Awe Me Strikes Again!

Awe Me has been covered many times at the Arcade. They never fail to amaze. Well, they’ve stepped it up yet again with Super-Fan Builds, featuring a brand new crew from Tim Baker Creations! The premise as always is simple. Take something from the movies, TV, books or comics and making into a tangible thing. […]

Music Monday – The Movies (Take 2)

This week I’m revisiting an old theme; the songs below are all used in feature films. You might say the films sighted are a mixed bag. I’d say, you’re right, but the songs themselves are uniformly great (each in their own way, naturally). For your consideration this week: 1. Frank Sinatra – Come Fly with Me […]

Bond 24: Cast, Car and Title announced.

Superherohype.com has reported that the film hitherto refer to as Bond 24 has been titled with cast. However, it behooves that we open with an amendment. It was rumored that Christoph Waltz would play Blofeld, rumor covered on this very site, by this very writer. While Waltz is signed on he will, according toSuperherohype, be playing […]

Parkour Homage To Assassin’s Creed Unity

Here at the Arcade we’ve seen art imitate art before, with the Stagmer Bothers making the Phantom Blade. However, this group of parkour practitioners have expressed their enthusiasm for the same franchise in a way that I can’t believe wasn’t tried before. This may prove a one-off, but yours truly was left wanting more. Let us know […]

The C.W. Double Feature, Part 1: Flash vs. Arrow

Highly anticipated, The CW’s two part crossover of Arrow and The Flash aired. As part of a double feature, a review will be suspended until after the second show airs. Still, we can at least give a run down of the story… so… >Spoilers Ahead< While Barry/ Flash (played by Grant Gustin) is out and about doing good […]

YouTube Digest: The Young Turks

The Young Turks (TYT) is the largest online news show in the world. I have cited TYT a number of times on The Arcade.  In fact, John Iadarola’s GoT commentary was the inciting incident for a piece on Binge Watching. It seems then that a YouTube Digest is well overdue. However, a conventional YouTube Digest may prove insufficient to the […]

Retro Review: Metropolis

What you are about to read (assuming you go on) was originally billed as a Rewind Review. However, for a  film celebrating its centenary in just over a decade, that is too much of a stretch. Even so, the film has a renewed pertinence in light of the recent sci-fi release Interstellar; along with Metropolis being […]
