Twitterbowl 2015

The Superbowl Bet set Twitter ablaze. For those unaware, the Twitterbowl, as some are now calling it, was a bet made between Chris Evans (Captain America) and Chris Pratt (Star-Lord). Kathryn Bluher and Rose Ibarra (Egge) explain: “Evans, a New England Patriots fan, and Pratt, a Seattle Seahawks fan, both wagered on who they thought […]

Regulations Upholding Net Neutrality Approved

Today the FCC passed regulations to run the internet as a public utility, and in so doing preserve Net Neutrality. Writing for The Guardian, Dominic Rushe explains that: “Broadband providers will be banned from creating so-called “fast lanes” blocking or slowing traffic online, and the regulator will oversee mobile broadband as well as cable.

Rewind Review: Spaceballs

With Mel Brooks confirming a second Spaceballs, the first demands a second look.  Originally released 1987, the film is a spoof, mocking sci-fi tropes and the franchise mentality alike. Spoilers ahead. The spoofing starts right at the off, with an episodic script that recalls the beginning of Star Wars, the sci-fi franchise of franchises. The use of […]

The Arcade has covered TYT in its current permutation, but many are likely curious to know how it came about. Whether the film is up to the task this film critic cannot yet say. Still, having taken […]

Having become aware of their YouTube channels only weeks before, I was intrigued and wanted to learn more… So I caught up with them over the week end. What are our major […]

Better Call Saul Extended Trailer Released

When the first Better Call Saul trailer was released my colleague said it had “a hefty pedigree”. Indeed, ever since AMC announced its spin-off there has been as much excitement as trepidation. Still, I’m opting to trust Vince Gilligan, for the moment at least. With the premiere now less than a month away, we have another trailer. While what’s in store […]

Music Monday 05/01/2014

I’ve done a few Music Mondays in my time. However, to be writing the playlist to kick-off 2015 implies a responsibility hitherto unknown; therefore I must do my damnedest to ensure as much variety as possible in a selection of just seven songs. No pressure. BriaAndChrissy ft. DJ Jon Nguyen -Take Me to Heaven (2014) To start, I […]
