Halloween Fest: Moviegeddon Part 2
This post doesn’t exactly start with a bang. First on the docket we have...
What do you call the satellite of a moon?
Well, if you’re a scientist, lack a bit of imagination and have no clue about internet memes.... you call them *drummroll*:
Arrow 7x01 "Aimless" Reaction Thread
OK, that’s not the title of the episode, it’s more how I feel the show has been lately. Hopefully they correct that this season. Also, if that’s a dadbod, I don’t like the new standard, IO9. Don’t take my hope away. Let’s react!

Halloween Fest: Moviegeddon Part 1
It’s probably not much of a secret around here that I’m a huge fan of October. I love the change in weather, the leaves turning color from green to browns, reds, and yellows, and it also contains my favorite holiday, Halloween. It’s always held a special place in my heart. My brother and I would run around…
New Doctor, New Desert
Doctor Who is now more authentically African than Black Panther: exteriors for to-day’s new episode, “Ghost Monument”, were shot in South Africa, surpassing Black Panther, which was shot in South Korea and the United States. It certainly beats a quarry and helps give this second episode of the new Doctor Who season…
Hypothetical TV: Marvel's Immortal Iron Fist
I will admit it: I was massively disappointed when Netflix cancelled Iron Fist. The second season had been such a massive improvement and I really wanted to see where the stories of Colleen Wing (the new Iron Fist) and Danny Rand (with his new chi-powered guns) went. Hopefully, Disney will pick up the show and give it…
Supergirl 4x01 "American Alien" Reaction Thread
New night, new season, hopefully better told stories! Welcome to Supergirl. Frankly I’m still deciding if I should finish the previous season before watching this one. I fell out of the show about 5 episodes before the season ended and nobody who watched seemed to enjoy it. So... get to reacting, people!

Cowboys and Teddy Bears
Indulging in some self-parody, Cowboy Bebop introduces a one-off rival for Spike named Andy, a flamboyant bounty hunter who wears the traditionally recognised accoutrements of a cowboy. Faye wryly remarks on how similar the two men actually are but the really interesting thing about this episode is in how different…

Out of Sight, Out of Mind - A Horror Story
It’s October and that means its the best time of the year for horror stories. Then again, any time of the year is good for a scare. You can find these frightening tales in books, movies, comics, and online. One creator who I’ve come to know is Aries, an artist who creates short story horror videos.
Fuck You, Marvel.
Last week, at New York Comic-Con, Marvel announced that a five issue mini-series, Shadow of Vader, was going to be written by Chuck Wendig. Today, Chuck Wendig announced that Marvel had fired him. Why? Because his Twitter had been “too vulgar and negative.”
Svengoolie: Cry of the Werewolf (1944)
This week the Svengoolie movie will be Cry of the Werewolf. Count Floyd says this is a scary one, kids. Ow-Ooo!
Dirg is back, xobmies!
In early 2000s, when flash animation just appeared, the series about Dirg, the sentient zombie keeping a little girl safe in the world destroyed by the zombie apocalypse, was a true delight. there were talks of a feature-length animated movie based on the idea but nothing came out of them.
British MPs to interrogate robot
Natural intelligence might be a rarefied commodity in the Westminster Bubble but a group of British MPs are going to ask a robot some questions about artificial intelligence. Luckily this droid likes answering questions and in pre-Brexit Britain presumably Pepper from Paris is still allowed to work in the UK. Just…
