I’m taking a break from talking about anime genres I usually bash as I want to give some major aspects of anime some column time. I often say that characters make the series; you can have an amazing story but unless the characters click with each other and compel the audience then it is dead […]

Battlefield Earth was recently listed as the worst film of all time, and for good reason. It is an entertaining experience for only those of questionable ideals, sobriety or those who love to laugh at poor acting. If you enjoy The Room or Fateful Findings, this is the voyage into the ridiculous you’ve been waiting for. […]

To kick things off with this week’s Rewind, I have to admit that I had some difficulty in trying to decide what to do. We can choose from games, movies, TV shows or books. For two days I considered all of those mediums, and tried to think of something I keep going back to. The […]

Prepare to Die In case you’ve been living underneath a rock, Dark Souls is the greatest game of all time… if you can figure it out. Don’t talk to me about your Pikachus and your Zeldas or your basic tutorials and mechanics. Dark Souls is as complex as it is confusing, the level design is beautiful […]

It is no secret that I have been very hard on a lot of different genres but they have always been related to the slice of life genre. Last week I talked about music anime which is a new(ish) saturation in the genre the last few years but there are more anime that are peddled […]

There have been several movies over the years that have created fictional bands as part of the film. There have been instances where the fictional band was the focus, and instances where they were just a small portion of the story. This week’s EwTube will showcase some of my favourite fictional bands over the years. I […]

Yay! It’s 2017! That means we get to continue with all of our 2016 business but with a vague and fading sense of newness or novelty. Right up until we can distract ourselves with summer partying and trips to Galway. (Go to Galway, it’s fun.) After summer 2k17, we can fret about Halloween and then […]
