This article contains spoilers for Swarm. There’s an old African proverb that says “the child who is not embraced by the village will burn it down to feel its warmth.” Prime Video’s surreal horror series, Swarm, takes that proverb and tweaks it to a modern context. Throughout Donald Glover and Janine Nabers’ ode to dark obsession,

I was hopelessly addicted to Diablo 4‘s recent Early Access beta, and I’m already looking forward to losing myself in the game once more during its upcoming Open beta weekend. Then again, that’s always been Diablo‘s thing. It’s the franchise that turned classic role-playing into an addictive action experience. Competitors have come along that do
These days, Final Fantasy fans are spoiled for choice. Virtually every entry in the mainline series, as well as the spinoffs, are readily available worldwide, both physically and digitally. If you live in North America or Europe and want to play Final Fantasy 1 through 15 in chronological order, you’re now able to do just
This article contains spoilers for the Attack on Titan anime. Attack on Titan is spattered with gore. Both humans and Titans are decapitated, ripped apart, burned and left to bleed.

Warning: contains spoilers for The Gold FINALE At the beginning of each episode, The Gold announced itself as a mix of fact and fiction with the disclaimer: “The following is inspired by real events. Some characters or elements have been created or changed for dramatic purposes.” That meant while several of its characters had the
Can a festival have swagger? Because it felt like SXSW was swaggering in 2023. This should not be a total surprise for a weeklong conference that’s an intersection between film, television, music, gaming, technology, and arguably innovation itself. As per one industry insider, SXSW has long been perceived as “the cool kids festival.” Nonetheless, one
This article contains spoilers for season 1 of Shadow and Bone Season 1 of Shadow and Bone introduced us to the expansive world of Leigh Bardugo’s Grishaverse and its large cast of characters. Like any good fantasy world, Shadow and Bone gives us many characters to root for, and others to root against. Season 2,
It’s no secret that the MCU is in a state of flux. Even as movies such as Black Panther: Wakanda Forever and Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania continue to do well at the box office, a type of fatigue has set in, with people feeling a bit overwhelmed by the constant stream of new media
The Dungeons & Dragons universe spans vast underground realms, impossible outer planes, and kingdoms as beautiful or corrupt as you can imagine. It’s fertile ground for our imaginations, where player characters can overcome almost any plot or puzzle your dungeon master can throw at you. But along the way, there are many dangers to face.
Norman Bates is haunted by many demons, but the one which tortures him the most is not loneliness or fear or even his questionable past. That demon is his mother. Norma Bates (at least what remains of her) is glimpsed in the shadows of Alfred Hitchcock’s horror classic Psycho, and later heard through Norman’s own
Diablo 4‘s beta is here, and those who pre-ordered the game (or bought a chicken sandwich) can play the game now via Early Access. Those who are lucky enough to dive into the game’s Early Access period will probably wonder which of the three available classes (Barbarian, Rogue, and Sorcerer) is best for them. The
This article contains nothing but Shazam! Fury of the Gods spoilers. Shazam! Fury of the Gods is a big movie. It’s essentially a team movie, with not only Billy Batson, but his entire foster family bringing a total of six superheroes to the table (not to mention the presence of Djimon Hounsou’s Wizard). And they’re
Much of the fun in Diablo 4 comes from trying different builds and watching your character grow, though the limited nature of the game’s beta does hinder that experience somewhat. Even across the Early Access and Open betas, many players just won’t have a lot of time to really experiment with all the possibilities. As
Star Trek hasn’t always been great about introducing new characters in legacy stories. Sure, Lieutenant Saavik was pretty great, at least in her first incarnation, but no one wanted to see more of David or William Dekker (bullet dodged on that last one). But like an odd-numbered Trek movie that everyone loves, Star Trek: Picard‘s
Blizzard isn’t letting Diablo 4 beta participants keep their characters after the limited trial. This news will no doubt disappoint anyone who acquires powerful loot from the world boss Ashava, but Blizzard is providing a few consolation rewards for anyone who sticks with the beta long enough. Gamers who participate in Diablo 4‘s Early Access
A weird thing happened to me at the start of March. After weeks of grinding the CCG Marvel Snap, I had finally climbed the ranks during the game’s ‘Into the Quantum Realm’ season. Previous seasons had seen me hit rank 50 or 60 at best, but as I crested 90 I realized that this was

This article contains spoilers for Shadow and Bone season 2. It’s understandable that before fans get into a Netflix show nowadays, they want to know whether the show will have another season or whether they’ll be stuck with another cliffhanger ending that will never be continued.

The internet has been a-flurry with Willow chat this week after Deadline (written by Nellie Andreeva) announced that the series was to be “Canceled After One Season On Disney+”, with fans and viewers alike offering differing opinions on the news.
