You’ve seen this movie before. Maybe not Kodachrome specifically, but you’ve definitely seen movies like this. The only thing more common than movies about estranged fathers and sons are movies about road trips; Kodachrome is both. It’s either so sure of its identity or so oblivious to it that it hits almost all of the expected story beats (I […]
I, uh, wouldn’t mind having one. HP’s been beefing up their high-end Omen gaming PC line for a while. But it seems that they want to tap into the wider end of the gaming market as well. And that’s the purpose of their new Pavilion Gaming line; for those that don’t need to be on […]
Ubisoft’s Discovery Tour by Assassin’s Creed: Ancient Egypt is a new educational and entertainment tool, which lets anyone explore the entire interactive 3D recreation of Ancient Egypt in Assassin’s Creed Origins, free of conflict, time pressure or gameplay constraints. The Discovery Tour by Assassin’s Creed: Ancient Egypt releases on February 20th, 2018 on PS4, Xbox and […]
You’ll never guess the hilarious results. Justice League was far from a perfect movie. But one thing stood out to anyone who watched it: Henry Cavill’s digitally removed mustache. And many a joke was made about it. Needless to say, the rather expensive effects used to digitally remove Henry Cavill’s soup strainer from the reshoot’s […]
Violated California Law. Tinder made a bit of a misstep when it came to the pricing of its premium service. The fact that Tinder Plus actually costs users more ($19.99 up from $9.99) if they’re over the age of 30 drew some ire. And they had to defend their decision in court, since that sort […]
Phantom Thread, Paul Thomas Anderson’s eighth film, is so far removed stylistically from his previous work that it’s hard to reconcile. It has none of the Altmanesque trappings of Magnolia or Boogie Nights, nor the epic sweep of There Will Be Blood. It’s small-scale in a way not seen since his debut feature Hard Eight. It’s also incredibly personal, and feels downright confessional […]
No coding required. Most of us probably have at least one game rattling around in our skulls. The major problem is that there really aren’t any options that let you make a game without at least a bit of coding knowledge. But nowadays, the NES is a simple beast, and the story of NESmaker follows […]
MSI is launching three brand-new gaming products at CES 2018, and will display two other CES Innovation Award Honorees. The CES 2018 Innovation Award Honorees include the Trident 3 Arctic, the new Z370 GODLIKE GAMING motherboard, new GTX 1080TI Lightning Graphics Card, Infinite X gaming desktop and new Optix MPG27CQ gaming monitor. The Trident 3 […]
Margaux and I take a look at Krampus, a surprisingly straightforward yuletide horror film. Trevor: This is the second time that I’ve watched Krampus, and it’s a movie I more or less enjoy, but hoo boy does it get off to a rough start. That opening montage isn’t nearly as trenchant an insight as it thinks it. Satires […]
Plans to have things ready in 2018. T-Mobile is taking on the big cable companies. By acquiring Layer3 TV Inc., a television technology company, they plan to merge their structure with Layer3’s technology to provide a better cable Un-Carrier. As they state in the video, 8 of the 10 most hated brands in the U.S. […]
I want to get something out of the way real quick: I love the Punisher. He’s one of my favorite Marvel characters (you can’t really call him a hero) because even though he’s motivated by a strict moral code, he challenges preconceptions of the inherent goodness of crime fighters, and makes you wonder at what […]
“I see you shiver with antici…” In last year’s review of Little Shop of Horrors, I called the fanbase for The Rocky Horror Picture Show annoying and tacky. I stand by that, but it’s easy to see where their obsession comes from. Rocky Horror is such an incredibly fun film that at the right time and place, anyone could become a […]
