Bad Boys II – Screen Savers

In case you haven’t heard, Bad Boys III is happening.. This is the second time Michael Bay has gone back to the exciting antics of Miami cops, Will Smith and Martin Lawrence chasing evil drug barons. I was a fan of Bad Boys and The Rock, his first two movies but Armageddon and Pearl Harbor shattered […]

#TeamIronMan – Spider-Man – Civil War Dossier

With the new trailer for Captain America-Civil War, Team Iron Man unveiled their newest member: “Hey everyone”, Spider-Man. You may think Marvel’s most iconic superhero needs no introduction but its important to remember as Stan Lee pointed out, “Every comic book is someone’s first.” and considering this is his first appearance in the Marvel Cinematic Universe a […]

Minister Kataoka – Tenchu: Stealth Assassins – Boss Rush

We all know the two feelings that come after a boss battle. A tense and lengthy battle of tactics and effort can leave you feeling battered, yet somewhat exhilarated. Facing a tough, spam-happy opponent with multiple stages and no checkpoints can have you thinking seriously about tracking down the designers. By 1998 I had experienced both […]

‘Ooh Child’ – Valerie Carter – Track of the Day

The Five Starsteps recorded the moving and uplifting classic ‘O-o-h Child’ in 1970 and has been adored by musicians and music lovers ever since. It’s been interpreted by many different artists over the decades. Nina Simone has covered it, 2pac sampled it and it has been featured prominently in movies such as Boyz N The Hood […]

Bond 25 Will Tap Into Current Fears

While SPECTRE divided Bond fans from Skyfall noobs, the famous franchise was always going to have another instalment regardless of reception. Pre-production hasn’t even begun and already there are rumours flying around, many of which concerning Daniel Craig possibly not returning as James Bond. Gregg Wilson, associate producer and son of EON Productions executive Michael […]

Zig and Zag The Animated Series Starts March

Zig and Zag, the alien twins from the planet Zog are back. Those of us who are old enough remember the ‘faberoony’ furry aliens shared many an after school hour howling with laughter at their ingenious, unscripted lunacy. We also remember the hurt pain we suffered when they sold out and catered their act to […]

The BFG (1989 Film) – Rewind

Sophie, during a sleepless night in the orphanage decides to sneak out of bed and gaze out of her dorm window. Of all the things she expected to see, a 25 foot tall giant was not one of them. But she does see him. And the giant sees her. Before she realises what has happened, […]

Kindergarten Cop 2 Gets Straight-To-DVD Release

Kindergarten Cop, that sweet and funny yet occasionally brutal classic. You remember it, right? The one starring Arnold Schwarzenegger! Well, now it has been subjected to a straight-to-DVD sequel titled Kindergarten Cop 2. Dolph Lundgren, of The Expendables and Rocky IV fame, has taken on the role from Arnie as the agent-turned-Kindergarten teacher. The trailer […]

Track of the Day: 2Pac – ‘I Ain’t Mad At Cha’

20 years ago today saw the release of All Eyez On Me, the best-selling album from the iconic 2Pac (Tupac Shakur). Recorded when he was fresh out of prison and feeling betrayed, paranoid and angry, Shakur recorded the entire double album in less than a month and what it may lack in finesse it more […]

Ben Schwartz Talks To Reddit About His Time As BB-8

In the wrong hands, Ben Scwartz‘s BB-8 could have been just another crass marketing device. Thankfully, this funny little droid was a lovely addition to the Star Wars universe and displayed all the emotion, sweetness and humour required to make Star Wars: The Force Awakens the film event of the decade. While a lot of work […]
