Do you remember the “Ryan Gosling Won’t Eat His Cereal” series of videos from 2013? If it’s not familiar to you, the meme was a collection of Vines by Ryan McHenry, featuring clips from Gosling movies and interviews with dramatic expressions or gestures. McHenry would hold a spoonful of cereal to the screen, to which […]

The NFL Draft is the league’s first major event of the season. It’s to football what opening day is to baseball, in that every fan believes — or at least wants to believe — they can look forward to the best-case season for their team. Fans of the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, Tennessee Titans, Jacksonville Jaguars […]

May the Fourth be with you, and all that. Vanity Fair certainly got into the spirit of “Star Wars Day” by releasing images from the magazine’s upcoming issue, featuring a photo shoot with the cast of Star Wars: The Force Awakens. The pictures revealed or confirmed some new characters that will be in the film, […]

Sometimes I really want to like an episode of Saturday Night Live solely because of the host, and that usually gets me into trouble because my expectations are rarely reached in those instances. This week was no exception with Scarlett Johansson hosting. I will admit to a slight crush on Johansson, and my wife will […]

Warner Brothers and DC Comics apparently didn’t want Marvel Studios to grab all of the comic book superhero movie headlines coming out of the weekend. As Avengers: Age of Ultron finished off an estimated $187.7 million gross at the box office, director David Ayer (Fury, End of Watch) tweeted out a photo of his cinematic supergroup […]

Fans of the Nintendo 64 platformer Banjo-Kazooie received some excellent news this week, as a spiritual successor to the game, titled Yooka-Laylee, has been announced. The project, previously titled Project Ukelele, is being developed by Playtonic Games, a group of former staffers from Rare, who previously worked on Banjo. The appetite for the game is legit, […]

My family went to Target last weekend to buy sandals and underwear. Specifically, sandals and underwear for my four-year-old son, who doesn’t seem to want to stop growing. After some negotiations with our son, we were able to decide on some plain brown sandals — and Star Wars underwear — which were the compromise for […]

Would it be a ridiculous mess of hyperbole to call Avengers: Age of Ultron the best superhero movie ever made? Or is raising the bar exactly what was expected in following up 2012’s The Avengers, which changed everything that seemed possible for these sorts of blockbuster films? Is the sequel better than the original? Yes. […]

If you’ve been hoping for the entire run of Seinfeld to become available on Netflix, we’ve got bad news for you. That’s not happening. Not with Amazon Prime either. And fortunately, not on iTunes (which I’m saying because you’d likely have to pay per episode that way). But the legendary sitcom will soon be available […]

The cast of Avengers: Age of Ultron have been doing a lot interviews to promote the film’s May 1 release. The sheer number of sit-downs and the grind of doing one after the other has led to uncomfortable moments and controversy. But it’s also difficult for movie journalists to stand out among the blizzard of publicity […]

Last week, Warner Brothers released two images from their upcoming remake of Point Break. As with any remakes, the Internet blew up claiming blasphemy and urging the rest of the World Wide Web to grab their digital pitchforks in anger, despite the images being fairly non-specific to Point Break “canon,” with exception to Edgar Ramirez being on a […]

Is Hawkeye like the Aquaman of The Avengers, the guy whom everyone snickers about because his contribution to the superhero team seems minimal? All Aquaman does is talk to fish, right? And all Hawkeye does is aim a bow and arrow alongside Iron Man, the Hulk and Thor. Even Sesame Street made fun of him! […]

If you asked today’s generation who Adam Sandler is, the answer may not be synonymous with success. What they might not know, is in the early-to-mid 90’s Sandler was at his arguable critical peak, selling millions of comedy albums, stealing scenes on Saturday Night Live and getting his start in film with movies like Billy Madison. […]

Evidently, some people were underwhelmed by the teaser trailer for season two of HBO’s True Detective. I don’t share that feeling, but I can understand if there was some sentiment that the preview was somber, largely because of the song chosen to score it. What was that song, by the way? Where can it be […]

Wrestler-turned-MMA-fighter CM Punk has been dipping his toe into the world of comic books, writing one-off gigs with Marvel (Thor Annual #1) and DC Comics (Strange Sports Stories). Marvel was apparently impressed enough with Punk’s work to give him a brand-new ongoing series, starring one of its most popular characters from the movies. Punk will […]
