Aqualung At 50 Jethro Tull S Half Concept Album Hits Half A Century

Aqualung is framed by two halves of a concept. The first songs on the first side tell the stories of the outcasts, those out of sight of the eyes of the man who created god. The B-side explains why organized religion blinds us. In between are songs which have nothing to do with either theme. First off, for those who don’t know, Jethro Tull is not a person, but a band....

Are Xbox Series X Load Times Fast Enough To Beat Playstation 5 At Launch

While Microsoft and Sony are both clearly excited by the many ways that SSDs will change console gaming, the PlayStation team has been especially vocal about the PS5’s SSD as one of the console’s biggest selling points. We’ve spoken before about why the PS5 SSD is unique and we’ve heard developers theorize that the PS5’s SSD could eventually force third-party developers to compromise for the comparative limitations of the Xbox Series X....

Army Of The Dead How Zack Snyder Is Revolutionizing Zombie Movies

So it’s probably fair to wonder at this point whether we’ve just about seen it all when it comes to zombie flicks. Innovative takes on the genre like Shaun of the Dead, Train to Busan, and Warm Bodies have taken the zombie myth and twisted it in unexpected ways. And Zack Snyder’s own remake of Romero’s Dawn of the Dead was an amplified homage to the original with a wry sense of humor....

Attack On Titan Season 3 Episode 18 Review Midnight Sun

Attack on Titan Season 3 Episode 18 “It’s hard to stay sane, living like this. It’s painful. I know that. But even so, we need to move forward.” The previous episode of Attack on Titan focused heavily on stunning sequences of staggering violence and grueling sacrifices, but this week’s aftermath instead deals with the moral questions and different decisions that now have to be made in order to go on surviving....

Attack On Titan Season 4 Episode 3 Review The Door Of Hope

Attack on Titan Season 4 Episode 3 “Just keep moving…” Attack on Titan’s new season has played with perspective in a surprising and satisfying way that’s kept the audience in the dark. A lot of this new season has focused on Falco Grice as he perseveres through Warrior Training and how he might be a Marleyan counterpart to Eren. However, “The Door of Hope” turns to Reiner’s past as a way to draw even more parallels and highlight that this new trainee may be able to accomplish what he can’t....

Audrey Hepburn The Secret Ww2 History Of A Dutch Resistance Spy

This image, of wartorn tenacity, is hardly the type associated with Hepburn in the popular imagination. To this day, she’s remembered as the ultimate Givenchy girl, an ethereal presence who took her breakfasts at Tiffany’s, and always in a little black dress. Even when she was heartbreaking on screen, she was luminous—a woman who appeared to glide through a charmed, effervescent life. That illusion had little to do with the real-life fires which forged her identity, or the experiences of a Second World War spent almost entirely under Nazi occupation....

Batgirl Canceled Where Does This Leave The Dceu And Michael Keaton S Batman Return

WB is making money from, and maintaining the popularity of, DC characters… but lately not in the so-called DC Extended Universe. Movies like The Batman and especially Joker are gambits, “elseworld” takes on these characters if you want to use nerd jargon. But the mainline DC franchise that is intended to compete with Marvel Studios’ golden goose output? It’s largely been one disappointment after the next for the past half-decade (admittedly several of their releases were casualties of the COVID-19 pandemic and WB’s dubious 2021 day-and-date release strategy)....

Batman 89 What Happened Next In The Burtonverse After Batman Returns

Tim Burton’s original vision for Gotham City and the Dark Knight are returning to the forefront of the DC Universe in more ways than one this year. Not only is Michael Keaton back in the cape and cowl for The Flash movie, which is currently filming in the UK for a late 2022 release, but DC is also releasing a sequel comic to Batman ’89 this week. No, this isn’t Batman Returns but a brand new continuation of the Burtonverse from Batman ’89‘s original screenwriter Sam Hamm and artist Joe Quinones that “pulls on a number of threads left dangling” by Burton, all while recreating the singular look and feel of the movies, down to Keaton’s iconic Batsuit and Batmobile as well as all of the cool gadgets and Gothic architecture....

Batman Collectibles A History Of Caped Crusader Merchandise

“Criminals are a superstitious cowardly lot, so my disguise must be able to strike terror into their hearts. I must be a creature of the night.” Those were the words uttered by Bruce Wayne mere seconds before a bat fortuitously flew in his window, making him decide to take on the persona of a winged mammal to fight crime. In the process, he ushered in a new kind of superhero: One who is just an ordinary man without powers who utilizes his wealth, intelligence, and physicality to bring evildoers to justice....

Behind The Scenes Of Marvel S New Spider Man

“I deserve that,” the new Amazing Spider-Man lead writer chuckles when we compare this new team project to “Shed,” the critically acclaimed, impossibly bleak story he wrote back when Peter Parker was in the middle of his “Brand New Day” era that saw the Lizard return and promptly eat his son. There’s a lot different this time with the new status quo unrolling in “Beyond,” starting with Spidey himself. The premise of the new run of Amazing Spider-Man has Ben Reilly becoming Spider-Man after the copyright for the character is swiped from under Peter by the Beyond Corporation....

Best Games Like The Quarry

In The Quarry, every decision counts. Something as seemingly banal as climbing a ladder can lead players to one of approximately 186 different endings (yes, seriously), and it might take gamers a few tries to save every playable character. Eventually, players will reach the end of the road, but what if they haven’t they haven’t had their fill of slasher horror or narrative-focused gaming? What if they want more? Well, plenty of video games out there check off many if not all of the same boxes as The Quarry....

Best Michelle Yeoh Movies You Need To Watch Right Now

Most remember Yeoh from her captivating portrayal as the swordswoman Yu Shu Lien in Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, one of her many martial arts roles. However, Yeoh only practiced martial arts for the movies. Her physicality actually goes back to her years studying ballet as a child. Beyond being a ballerina, she is a former Miss Malaysia, a singer, and a producer. She’s quadrilingual (Cantonese, English, Malay, and Mandarin) and a stalwart activist for nature preservation, particularly to protect endangered Chinese tigers....

Best Steam Features You Didn T Know Existed

In 2003, Valve launched their digital PC gaming platform, not as a means to distribute games but to automatically update its own titles. The service didn’t even start selling games until 2005, but since Valve made that fateful decision, Steam has continued to grow by leaps and bounds into the foremost gaming marketplace on PC. Most gamers are familiar with Steam’s more popular features. The platform makes modding titles a breeze thanks to the Steam Workshop, and it doesn’t require subscription fees to play multiplayer games....

Bethesda S Mass Effect Tweet Confirms The Multiverse Has Collapsed

In case you missed it, the Bethesda Store recently tweeted a promotion for a Mass Effect t-shirt. What would normally be a standard digital store tweet lost to the innocence of a Wednesday afternoon was complicated by the fact that Bethesda doesn’t make the Mass Effect games. That honor belongs to legendary RPG studio BioWare whose own store, curiously enough, was referenced in this now-deleted tweet from the Bethesda Store account: Now, here’s what’s really funny....

Better Call Saul The Best Montages

Better Call Saul is one of the most artistically creative shows in television history. The use of camera angles, accompanying musical pieces, and color has set a standard that other shows will be trying to match for years to come. The way the series is directed makes it feel like you’re watching a true cinematic masterpiece, because you are. The method of storytelling that Vince Gilligan and Peter Gould have really honed in on better than anyone else in recent memory is the montage....

Better Call Saul Season 4 Recap

“S’all good, man.” With those three words, Better Call Saul season 4 fulfilled the promise of its series’ title. Only two seasons remain in this superb Breaking Bad prequel that charts the ascent (and descent) of another Albuquerque antihero: Jimmy McGill a.k.a. Saul Goodman. With Better Call Saul season 5 set to premiere on February 23, it’s worth taking time to reflect on the previous season that was. Better Call Saul season 4 held enormous implications for the story of Jimmy and what’s to come next for the entity known as Saul Goodman....
