Shigaraki And Deku Meet Their Makers In My Hero Academia S The Ones Within Us

My Hero Academia Season 6 Episode 10 “They’re just a few dead people who lost to me…” There’s a fascinating phenomenon where recipients of organ transplants sometimes report a change in personality, taste, and even memories, that are an echo of the organ’s donor. My Hero Academia has extrapolated that concept with Quirks as both Izuku Midoriya and Tomura Shigaraki have inherited the traits of the previous bearers of their powers....

Silent Hill Exploring The Terror Of The P T Demo

At the same time, I’ve always been jealous of the generation who experienced the revolutionary horror films of the 1960s and ‘70s at the theater. This forlorn feeling was instilled in me by my dad and others who lived through that era of horror. While there was something annoying about their unprovoked rants about the good old days – who among us can’t say we haven’t fallen into that particular shameful pit of adulthood?...

Sky Atlantic S The Nevers Proves That Good Things Come To Those Who Wait

The Nevers is a series that often defies description. A Victorian-set fantasy adventure that features a gang of primarily young women who gain supernatural and superhuman abilities, it’s a story about everything from faith and prejudice to hope and change. Its narrative is sprawling and frequently confusing, with no real initial sense of how its disparate pieces connect to one another. (Or don’t.) And it features at least a dozen major characters who run the gamut from heroes to villains – and sometimes both at once....

Sons Of Anarchy Season 4 Episode 10 Review Hands

To be fair, we’ve thought Clay was beyond redemption a couple of times before, particularly in the first couple of series, but he’s always come around. Whilst I always have faith in Kurt Sutter’s broken glass-sharp writing, I can’t help but feel that he’s written himself into a corner with some of the revelations this week, but hey, that’s probably what he wants us to think. Following last week’s events, this week’s episode is very Tara-centric....

Squid Game Ending Explained

For a series with a relatively well-worn premise, Netflix’s Squid Game sure does manage to pack a lot of surprises into its conclusion. It does this in large part by recognizing that the series’ success hinges not so much on who wins the game, but on how they win it and what it all means. Like the show’s beginning, much of Squid Game‘s final hour is set outside the world of the arena—this time, a year following the events of the bulk of the show....

Star Trek Discovery 1 Interview With Mike Johnson Kirsten Beyer

IDW just published “The Light of Kahless,” the first in a four-part Discovery comic book tie-in series set before the events of the series. The story follows the character of T’Kuvma, the Klingon leader set on uniting the houses of the crumbling empire in the TV show’s two-part premiere. Den of Geek chatted with the comic’s authors, Mike Johnson and Kirsten Beyer (who is also a writer on the TV series), about how the prequel story fits into Discovery canon, why T’Kuvma is such an interesting character, and their favorite Star Trek stories ever… Den of Geek: How was the decision made to make this comic about the Klingons and T’Kuvma specifically?...

Star Trek Discovery Season 4 Episode 6 Review Stormy Weather

Star Trek: Discovery Season 4 Episode 6 Star Trek: Discovery literally goes where no one has gone before in “Stormy Weather,” journeying into the subspace rift left behind by the DMA to try and suss out more information about what it is and how it works, in the hopes that such information might point them toward who created it. Instead, the Discovery and her crew all end up almost being eaten by some sort of inexplicable dark void that the DMA apparently leaves in its wake, and it’s only through some old-fashioned Earth communication that everyone is saved in the end....

Star Trek Strange New Worlds Episode 8 Review The Elysian Kingdom

Star Trek: Strange New Worlds Episode 8 One of the downsides of our current era of Peak Prestige TV is the assumption that, in order to be good, something must also be deadly serious. This seems to be doubly true if we’re talking about a genre property, which these days tend to be peppered with bleak, grimdark depictions of authoritarian military regimes, insidious robot overlords, or widespread climate disasters. Even Star Trek hasn’t been immune to this trend in recent years—both Star Trek: Discovery and Star Trek: Picard have certainly shown us futures that don’t always entirely feel compatible with the more lighthearted optimism of Gene Roddenberry’s original vision for the franchise....

Star Trek The Next Generation Tasha Yar Blooper That Made It On Screen

“It’s the number-one most covered topic not connected to World War II, apart from maybe the Civil War,” says Brian Volk-Weiss, director of the documentary, The Center Seat: Celebrating 55 Years of Star Trek, which launches this week in the UK on IMDb TV. But even after all this time there are still surprising new facts to discover, as Volk-Weiss himself found out during the making of the series. “I’m a lifelong Trekkie....

Star Wars The Mandalorian Baby Yoda Explained

The Mandalorian is back for a second season featuring more adventures for Mando and the Child, better known as our beloved Baby Yoda. Ever since the Force-sensitive Child was introduced in the first episode as a helpless bounty sought after by Imperial agents, this little character has stolen the show, giving us a new twist on the well-established concept of Jedi Master Yoda. Not that the character is related to his famous movie predecessor....

Star Wars The Mandalorian Season 2 Episode 4 Easter Eggs Explained

“The Siege” evokes A New Hope in its star fighter battles and brings back some season one characters to The Mandalorian. The episode is heavy on the Original Trilogy overall, with some shots taken directly from iconic scenes. Mando returns to Nevarro for some repairs to his ship but ends up mopping up the last Imperial holdout there. But the Imperial base isn’t all that it seems on the outside, and the gang now has another clue as to what Baby Yoda actually is and what Moff Gideon is planning....

Star Wars Why Toshiro Mifune Turned Down Obi Wan Kenobi Role

While the legend of the potential casting of the iconic Kurosawa katana wielder is known and hardly breaking news, it seems that we now know why it never came to fruition. At an event in Tokyo announcing the very first Tokyo Comic Con, the legacy of Mifune was well represented by way of the late screen legend’s daughter, Mika. Joined onstage by Star Wars onscreen alumni like Ian McDiarmid and Ray Park, Mika reportedly revealed the reasoning behind his fateful rejection of the Obi-Wan role....

Stranger Things Isn T The Most Popular Show On Netflix Anymore

At the center of season 4 is a deep dive into Eleven’s past as well as her life post-Hawkins; Hopper’s quest to escape his Soviet captors; Max trying to cope with Billy’s death in season 3; a new string of teen murders perpetrated by the show’s most horrific villain yet, the gruesome Vecna; and the heavy metal-loving dungeon master Eddie Munson, a new character played by Joseph Quinn, trying to prove he didn’t commit the aforementioned killings....

Stranger Things Season 4 Trailer Breakdown William Hargrove Separate Ways Victor Creel And Vecna

That is the penultimate sentence uttered in the final trailer for Stranger Things season 4 (before the ominous addendum “You have lost”). Rarely have truer words ever been spoken. It is indeed time for more Stranger Things. Netflix’s retro sci-fi horror hit hasn’t produced new episodes since season 3 signed off on July 4, 2019. Now the show is finally set to return on May 27, 2022, and based on this action-packed new trailer from Netflix, it has spent those three years hard at work at making the grandest season yet....

Summer Movie Preview From Black Widow To The Suicide Squad And Beyond

This is of course happy news since many of the big screen events of this year have been 12 months or more in the offing. A Quiet Place Part II was supposed to open two Marches ago, and In the Heights is opening almost an exact year to the day from its original release. They’re here now, as is an impressive assortment of new films. There are genre fans’ long lost superhero spectacles, with Black Widow and The Suicide Squad leading the pack (and Shang-Chi closing out the season unusually late in time for Labor Day weekend), and there are also horror movies like The Conjuring 3 and M....

Taskmaster Series 10 First Trailer Pokes Fun At Channel 4 Dropping Show Years Ago

Kick no more, Channel 4. Taskmaster is once again yours. After airing nine series and a champion-of-champions special on Dave, Alex Horne’s inventive entertainment format is now back in the C4 fold with a six series deal. And by the looks of this first official trailer, Channel 4 is leaning into its past mistake and, to use the common parlance, owning it. Taskmaster series 10 is “coming soon” to Channel 4 (they’re being coy but October’s long been the word on the street)....

The Babysitter Review

As a whole though, McG returns to behind the camera for his first feature in three years with a confirmation that any of the vitality and playfulness imbued in his first Charlie’s Angels film has rushed out of him like the red geysers exploding from the many stock stereotypes present here. In the place of any semblance of life is a cynical and empty husk of a horror movie that’s animated by hackneyed humor, teen titillation, and an entirely rote series of set-pieces only freshened up when the special effects guys get to blow up somebody’s head....

But if you want to watch the scene anyway, you’re in luck. WB released the deleted scene ahead of the movie’s drop on HBO Max, giving us a deeper look into this Batman‘s relationship with the Clown Prince of Crime. While the scene that was kept in the movie shows us that Reeves’ Gotham does indeed feature a Joker, it’s this deleted scene that finally reveals that this clown has already had a run-in with the Bat....
