I will be looking at how the characters are represented in terms of personality and by myth (what that character is supposed to be).

A great deal of my musical taste stems from my girlfriend. Before her my knowledge was quite limited. It’s not that I was actively against other kinds of music. On the contrary, I tried several times to get into new music. I started buying a CD a week – randomly – in the vain effort to […]

Be it signed artwork, props, photos or life-sized cardboard cut-outs of Scarlett Johansson’s Black Widow; there isn’t a nerd out there that doesn’t proudly covets their modest collection and shows […]

There’s a joke in here somewhere about Seymour “You mean you want to see less?” Guado. I know you remember him.
