While geek culture and fandom is still relatively niche to the mainstream, a lot of people are slowly embracing it. We’ve seen it with the recent popularity of superhero movies as well as television adaptions of geeky literary works such as Game of Thrones and The Walking Dead. People like the late Steve Jobs are…
Everyone has things they want to do before they leave this world. We don’t want to have any regrets and, well, we want to feel like we achieved something in this lifetime. Hence, the bucket list was created. For those that don’t know what this is, a bucket list are the things you would want…
With Kick-Ass 2 being released next week, I thought it was a good idea to show an actual clip from the movie. It features Hit Girl showing off her fighting skills… and some violence. SPOILER ALERT, I guess? Anyway, here’s the clip: Kick-Ass 2 will be showing in cinemas on the 14th of August in…
First off, I’d just like to say that I enjoyed the first RED film. The comic book which the movie was based on actually had a pretty serious tone to it. When it was adapted to the big screen, it became an over the top comedy, mostly revolving around a band of old yet very…
When the first Muppets movie was released, I was worried it would flop. After all, they’ve been off the air for a long time and I didn’t think that they were relevant in today’s time. Thankfully, with the commercial success of the movie, my fears were put to rest. In fact, the movie did so…
After almost 5 years of faithful service, my old Fat Playstation 3 is starting to die. It’s actually kind of depressing really. But, for most people, I’m pretty sure they don’t really get why I feel sad. I mean, it’s just a piece of plastic and electronics, right? And it’s pretty easy to just go…
McDonald’s is the most popular fastfood burger restaurant in all countries of the world… except in the country where I live. Here, in the Philippines, the most popular place that sells burgers is a place called Jollibee. Yes, you can make fun of the fact that the restaurant has a giant bee for a mascot.…
Before I start off, I’m going to give myself a self-imposed “Teen” rating on this post because of violent and suggestive imagery and strong language. It’ll make sense as you read on. I’m a pretty easygoing guy. But if there’s one thing that irks me is when news outlets, lawyers and, well, the general public…
After the abomination that was X-Men Origins: Wolverine, I actually was pretty surprised that they were having another go around with the character. The first Wolverine film had very little respect for the history of the character and Marvel Universe in general. So, I came in The Wolverine very cautiously. I mean, if they did…
Hollywood has gotten better in making live action films of geek media. Well, for superheroes anyway. Marvel’s series of movies, which culminated with The Avengers was awesome. And Warner Bros. Man of Steel was a good reboot for a new Superman series. But there’s a lot of things they need to work on. American movie…
