Good ol’ time travel! Going the temporal route in a movie never gets old, as it allows for a film to be both tense and intelligent. We saw that a while ago with Looper, which may have reignited some time travel themes in the industry, with several movies following in its wake that took advantage of wibbly wobbly themes. Add …
It’s one thing to be a genius, but you’ve usually got some emotional Babbage that comes with the intellect. Wait, wrong computer analogy there. We wouldn’t have computers today, if it were for several ahead of their time minds over the last two centuries. One of which was Alan Turing, the breaker of the Enigma code that baffled many a …
Darkwood is a new game getting Early Access. Do scary woods appeal to you? Perhaps you should wach the interactive trailer.
Much like how it’s really not a good thing for an actor to be typecast, so too directors should always vary their work. Do the same thing over and over again, and you could end up like Michael Bay, hated on critics while his movies make more money than most countries’ GDP– and you know what? Bad example. The point …
If there’s one thing that Battleship proved, it’s that Rihanna can’t act. Oh and that lots of people will go watch a movie based on an old board game, even if it’s only related to its source in the most ephemeral way possible.

I first saw 12 Monkeys way back in the late 90s on a dodgy VHS tape, and that movie made buggerall sense to me. Fast forward a few years later, and a DVD copy that I ended up watching still left me scratching my head in befuddlement. That’s because 12 Monkeys is one hell of a mind-f**k of a movie. …
As a fan of Marvel Comics, anime and funny animated movies starring plucky kids who invent robots, I really should be more excited for Big Hero 6. I’ve laughed politely at the trailers and looked meaningfully at the posters and pics, but there’s just some spark still missing for me. Maybe I’m just a grumpy old coot though who can’t recognise …
The CS2 skin market keeps evolving, and players are becoming smarter about how they …
A spooky European village. Properly scary castle mania. Vampires. Werewolves!
