James Bond Is the Last Truly Cinematic Franchise

New DVD release
Daniel Craig has been wistful throughout the No Time to Die press tour. Part of this is probably because—unlike his infamous grumpiness during Spectre’s rollout—he is promoting a very good movie. The bigger element though is that he knows it really is last call with 007. After the final interview is wrapped, and the lights are taken down, his time with the James Bond family he’s been associated with for more than 16 years is done. Perhaps that’s why he’s become much more concerned with articulating what a unique thing that family is in the modern world of blockbusters. “It’s…

The Pressures of The Walking Dead’s Final Season

New DVD release
Most years, when the season’s eighth episode of The Walking Dead airs, it would mark a midpoint. But not so for the eleventh season of the AMC zombie epic, which is due to roll out 24 episodes for the show’s final outing. With two-thirds of the show yet to air, and two-thirds completed on the production side, executive producer Greg Nicotero is feeling the pressure to bring it on home. The director, writer, and special makeup effects maestro tells us in a recent interview he views the final season as a marathon. Specifically the fact that shooting a 16 episode…

Ghostbusters: Afterlife Review

New DVD release
When I first saw the original Ghostbusters, I didn’t get it was a comedy. It might’ve been because I was a shade too young, being about five or so, but when Bill Murray said no human could “stack books like this,” I believed him. Of course they couldn’t. The movie’s sarcasm didn’t come through, but its awe sure did in that moment a proton pack was first fired, as did its shock as a translucent librarian turned into a demonic entity escaped from the mouth of hell. After watching Ghostbusters: Afterlife, I wonder if Jason Reitman had a similar experience.…

Doctor Who Series 13 is Titled ‘Flux’ and Starts On Halloween

New DVD release
Flux. That’s the official title of the six-episode Doctor Who series 13, which starts airing on BBC One, BBC iPlayer and BBC America right at the end of this month. In the clip below, you’ll hear the Doctor warn that “The Flux is coming” and bringing with it monsters galore. (Our first thought was ‘flux’ as in something that’s constantly changing rather than the stuff you smear around copper pipes before welding them together, though let’s keep an open mind. Maybe this series finds the TARDIS needing its systems replaced by an intergalactic plumber?) It’s a very Doctor Who-y name for a villain,…

Outlander Season 6 Trailer Gets Political, Teases Release Date

New DVD release
Outlander has always been, among many other things, a political show, even if fans don’t think of it in that way. While later seasons of the Starz series have (mostly uncritically) waded into scenarios in which the show’s white main characters are not the easily identifiable heroes, Season 6 is poised to bring Outlander‘s Claire and Jaime more firmly back onto the “right” side of history (or, you know, hopefully… get your act together, Jamie!) with the outbreak of the Revolutionary War in Colonial America. Starz just released the Outlander Season 6 teaser trailer as part of its NYCC celebrations.…

No Time to Die: Should Lashana Lynch Lead the Next 007 Series?

New DVD release
This article contains major No Time to Die spoilers. It was a surprise when Nomi, the new and chic MI6 agent played by Lashana Lynch, surrendered her 007 codename in No Time to Die. Before that third act moment, she’d made a point of fiercely carving out the designation as her territory. She even delighted in the way everyone at MI6 called her by that title in front of old man James Bond. If handled in a different era, or by different actors, this all might’ve played as antagonistic or unlikable, but in the case of the dynamic between Lynch…

25 Most Underrated Horror Games Ever

New DVD release
While it’s understandable that most conversations about the best horror games ever tend to be dominated by franchises like Resident Evil and Silent Hill, the truth is that the popularity of the top end of the genre has long meant that some of the greatest horror games ever made still don’t get the love that they deserve. Granted, there are often good reasons why some of the great “other” horror games tend not to receive mainstream love, but much like some of the greatest horror films ever, there are times when a few rough edges in horror game design can…

Breaking Bad: 10 Reasons Why “Face Off” Is The Show’s Best Episode

New DVD release
It is a nearly universal opinion that “Ozymandias”, the 14th episode of Breaking Bad’s fifth season, is not only the best episode of the show, but also possibly the best hour in modern television. And while there is no denying its greatness, there are a few extra elements that make the previous season’s finale even better. It has been 10 years since “Face Off” aired on AMC and dramatic television since then has arguably never caught up. Combining a perfect mix of slow-burn buildup, immaculate payoff, and a feast of dense artistic stylings in between, “Face Off” remains every bit…

eBay Shares DJ Skee Doctor Strange Variant Cover at New York Comic Con

New DVD release
DJ Skee took the psychedelic origins of Doctor Strange to heart when eBay asked him to create a variant cover for the Marvel superhero for New York Comic Con. In a move that speaks both to the entrepreneur’s musical and artistic side, the cover evokes the magical colors worthy of the Sorcerer Supreme as well as the trippy music with which the comic is often associated. DJ Skee spoke about his inspiration for the cover as well as his partnership with King Saladeem on some exclusive trading cards being given away with the comic at the eBay booth at NYCC.…

Far Cry 6: Where to Find Every Amigo

New DVD release
Far Cry 6 continues a recent series tradition by allowing you to recruit a variety of animal companions that are more than ready to fight by your side (this time, the animals are referred to as “Amigos”). While it’s easy enough to play Far Cry 6 and find most of the available Amigos without going too far out of your way, a few of the game’s Amigos are shockingly difficult to find and unlock. Of course, we imagine that’s why you’re here. With that in mind, let’s jump right into our look at where to find every Amigo in Far…

Dune Director Says Blade Runner 2049 Could Have Ruined His Career

New DVD release
As the debut of director Denis Villeneuve’s lavish rendition of Dune looms closer, tension over the imminent arrival of this crucial career waypoint has to evoke a bit of déjà vu. That’s because it’s essentially where the French-Canadian filmmaker found himself around this time in 2017 upon the arrival of his previous attempt at a sacred franchise offering, Blade Runner 2049, which ultimately became a box office boondoggle. This time around, he’d prefer to avoid repeating mistakes that he now implies compromised his artistic future. Contextually, Blade Runner 2049 was to be the big-budget crowd-pleasing coming out party for Villeneuve,…

How Star Wars: The Clone Wars Introduced a New Sound for the Saga

New DVD release
Few scores in Hollywood history are as iconic as the ones composed by the legendary John Williams for the Star Wars saga. In fact, Williams’ compositions are as fundamental to the galaxy far, far away as George Lucas’ imagination and the writing of Joseph Campbell. Without his music, Star Wars would have never been a hit back in 1977. So it isn’t an exaggeration to say that film and television composer Kevin Kiner had some very big shoes to fill when he was tapped to create the score for The Clone Wars, an animated film that marked the start of…

How No Time to Die Fixes On Her Majesty’s Secret Service

New DVD release
This article contains major No Time to Die spoilers. Our spoiler-free review is here. Shortly after George Lazenby attended a screening of No Time to Die last week, the Australian actor and one-time 007 jumped on Twitter to write, “I got to see the new Bond here in LA. Interesting choice of music, I must say.” Having seen the latest James Bond movie ourselves, it’s easy to guess why the star of On Her Majesty’s Secret Service (1969) would be so flattered with Daniel Craig’s swan song. The influences of Lazenby’s OHMSS are unmistakable throughout No Time to Die, and…

Call of Duty Warzone: Best Season 6 Meta Weapons and Loadouts

New DVD release
Call of Duty: Warzone‘s Season 6 update kicks off what figures to be the “farewell tour” for the game’s Verdansk map as well as a brand-new meta filled with exciting new opportunities to infuriate your opponents by being the first to discover which of the battle royale’s guns are truly broken. While the latest Warzone update doesn’t feature the kind of sweeping nerfs and buffs that we’re used to seeing from earlier “season” patches, it does make some subtle changes to some of the game’s weapon classes that should impact which guns ultimately work their way to the top of…

Squid Game to Money Heist: What Netflix’s Foreign-Language Hits Have in Common

New DVD release
This article contains spoilers for Squid Game, Money Heist, and Lupin. This Halloween is going to be all about masks and red hoodies. Two of this year’s hottest Netflix shows feature them prominently and the visual similarity is striking. In the South Korean breakout series Squid Game, supervisors wear bright red hooded outfits with black mesh face masks. The masks are emblazoned with a stark white circle, triangle or square, the symbols of the show. It’s a bold costuming statement that bears an uncanny resemblance to outfits in Netflix’s first global foreign-language sensation, the Spanish series Money Heist. In Money…

Link Tank: Surprising Facts About James Bond to Know

Why Marvel’s Agatha Spinoff Series Should Avoid the Problems of Loki

New DVD release
This article contains spoilers for WandaVision, Loki, Black Widow, The Falcon and the Winter Soldier and Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings. Its been reported that Kathryn Hahn’s popular WandaVision villain, Agatha Harkness, is getting her own “dark comedy” spinoff series at Disney+, and like a lot of Marvel fans out there I’m hyped. Agatha is arguably the most deliciously fun villain the MCU has had to offer since Loki, and she even came equipped with her own catchy theme song. I can’t wait to see more Agatha, and I can’t wait to see Marvel have another stab…
