So I have still not seen more than the first two episodes of Gotham. I know, I know, “It got so much better”, right? At least that’s what I kept being told by friends of mine who had stuck around pass the way too Batman fan service heavy nudge-nudge wink-wink fest that was the opening to ABC’s own take on …
By now, I think we can all agree that Fantastic Four is a terrible, terrible movie. Whatever the reason behind it, 2015’s Fantastic Four will go down in history as the most expensive reason ever to retain comic book rights by a studio.

And boy, did Terminator Genisys leave …
[column size=one_half position=first ] The post-apocalypse comes in many forms. You get the dystopian future stuff (Akira, Equilibrium, 1984), the Machine Dawn (Terminator, The Matrix), Extinction (Planet of the Apes), Disease (28 Days Later) and Invasion (Oblivion). But the image it conjures today is inevitably batsh** biker hell-hole, where we are all shanking each other for the last bottle …
UPDATE: IT’S FIXED! YAY! PRAISE THE FLYING SPAGHETTI MONSTER! They say “if ain’t broke, don’t fix it”. Well, it’s definitely broke, and we’re desperately trying to fix it! It would appear that some security updates on our hosting server has completely broken our image database, hence why all the featured images for articles are not displaying. This means that images …
