Some anime are beloved by all who see it and have been able to make their way into the mainstream. They get tons of accolades, are celebrated by a large and active fandom, and have endless merchandise and fan art created in honour of both the show and its characters. But not animes can be so lucky. Some animes deserve a larger fanbase and more support but end up being truly underrated, even years after their initial release....
Last month had more than its fair share of box office duds, with Alex Proyas’ universally panned Gods of Egypt “leading” the pack. Domestically, the film brought in only $14 million against a reported production budget of $140 million, but even that disappointment was eclipsed by the runaway success of Fox’s X-Men spinoff Deadpool. The R-rated comic book film – heavily anticipated by fans – far exceeded the most generous expectations, quickly becoming one of the highest-grossing comic book films of all time....
As we all know, nothing is perfect. Things can go wrong if proper precautions are not taken. Once in a while, Linux tools encounter serious vulnerabilities, and due to the nature of these tools (open-source), all tools quickly receive security fixes. When it comes to compromising a Linux server, users’ actions are responsible for most of the time. After the compromise, we know we could easily prevent the compromise by implementing a simple firewall rule....
Around 6:30 p.m. EST on August 24, 2011, Steve Jobs stepped down as the CEO of Apple. I remember sitting in my friend’s living room as the television switched to the breaking news. I was only in middle school at the time, but Steve’s influence had already weighed heavily on me. It was a difficult moment. As a kid I’d put together faux keynotes on our family iMac and presented my product ideas to an imaginary audience....
With the Oscar race now in full swing, it’s important to check out the amazing work turned in over 2015 by some of Hollywood’s best actors, male or female. While we’ve already covered some stunning films and some powerful male roles, this year has seen a number of impressive performances from women that have raised the bar. With moviegoers only having a limited amount of time to check out all the potential nominees, we thought we’d make it a little easier....
Get your popcorn and chimichangas at the ready: in just a few short months, the Deadpool movie is finally, officially upon us. Lead star Ryan Reynolds is reprising his role as the Merc with a Mouth, and according to all reports, has done everything in his power to keep this movie’s interpretation of Deadpool a little closer to the source material than his unfortunate appearance in X-Men Origins: Wolverine. In the comics, Deadpool isn’t exactly known for being a typical superhero, and it’s unlikely that this movie will follow the traditional superhero formula....
Marvel has a pretty good record in creating Netflix series so far, with both Jessica Jones and the first season of Daredevil receiving high critical praise and getting both pre-existing fans and people new to the characters to binge watch hours of fresh superhero(ish) content. With the next season of Daredevil almost here, it’s safe to say that Marvel will likely have another hit on their hands. While it’s unlikely that DC and Warner Bros....
Hollywood has delivered some terrific horror movies in 2022 so far, from the blockbusters like Nope to the smaller surprises like Barbarian. But as fans look for more scary movies to enjoy for Halloween, they might want to venture outside of Hollywood. Fans on Reddit have highlighted even more great foreign horror movies that audiences can be introduced to just in time for the spooky season. A good movie recommendation can make all the difference....
American Horror Story: Coven remains one of the most popular seasons of the hit horror anthology series, and for good reason. It’s deft use of modern, retro, and historical garments with a magical twist gives it an aesthetic that sets it apart from every season before or since. It was the first season to take the moody elements of Murder House and the period costumes of Asylum, combining them to strike a dark tone perfect for a chronicle about voodoo priestesses and couture-wearing witches....
The world of reality TV is glamorous, scandal-driven, fast and, sometimes, just a little too furious. It’s hard not to crave more fame once you’ve had a bit of a taste, and reality TV stars, in particular, are very well known for chasing it as if their lives depend on it. More often than not, this lust and unyielding desire for being in the spotlight translates into making several appearances on whatever reality show they can find....
Goose, the beloved and adorable marmalade cat in Captain Marvel, has a lot more to her than you might originally think. She’s been with Carol for quite some time, and when she’s not charming people like Nick Fury, she’s freaking other heroes out. Fans of Captain Marvel may not be aware of Goose’s past, so we’re here to help fix that. Here is a list of ten things you may or may not know about the one and only Goose....
To quote Roger Ebert’s review of the movie, “Mystery Men has moments brilliance waving their arms to attract attention.” This summation is very accurate because while Ben Stiller’s superhero movie from 1999 didn’t exactly age perfectly, it does have surprising moments of cleverness. In fact, these flashes of inspiration foreshadowed jokes, trends, and ideas that the modern superhero genre would not only reuse but refine. It could be said that in its own gonzo way, Mystery Men predicted parts of the current superhero boom that’s best embodied by the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) and the DC Extended Universe (DCEU)....

It’s no secret that Hollywood is sexist. Wonder Woman took forever to get to the big screen, Black Widow still doesn’t have her own solo film, and the girls always get the short end of the stick when it comes to action figures. It seems that, despite the rapidly progressing times, it’s difficult for studio executives to see women as anything other than damsels-in-distress or supportive side-kicks. Screw that noise! Anytime some moron tries to suggest that women can’t kick as much butt as their chromosomal counterparts, just point them to any of these films, our list of 15 Awesome Female-Led Action Movies!...
With all of time and space at its disposal, Doctor Who has run into more than one famous face. Whether they’re fictional heroes of the future or icons of the past, The Doctor has made more famous friends than one could imagine. The current era, led by Chris Chibnall, has arguably found its stride in historical episodes in particular. “Demons of the Punjab”, “Rosa,” and “The Haunting of Villa Diodati” have all been some of the best episodes of Jodie Whittaker’s run....
There’s no shortage of guile in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. When all has been said and done, some characters’ plans and reactions are what make for some magical movie moments. Be it Nick Fury’s backup plans or Tony Stark’s mechanical trump cards, craftiness and self-preservation is a common thing in the MCU. It’s the only way to survive a lot of the situations these characters get themselves into. Suffice to say, Slytherins do exist in Disney’s hand-crafted interpretation of the Marvel comic books....
In the world of television, there have always been shows that somehow gather cult followings and massive ratings that leave many scratching their heads. Some of these classic television sitcoms are seen as the best shows of all time but for those who do not enjoy them, their constant praise can be truly confusing. Watching Friends without a laugh track is the simplest exercise in seeing just how bad a successful TV show can be....
Period films are no longer as popular as they used to be and as a result, plenty of good films under this umbrella might go unnoticed. Should we blame Marvel, like Scorsese? Oh, wait. Isn’t Captain America: The First Avenger a period film? Anyway, we are more than glad to give ourselves the task of making you notice period films that have been flying under the radar. Over the last five years, there have been plenty of period movies with great reviews....
