Samuel Brace argues that quality isn’t subjective… Many things in life are up for debate. Many things can be interpreted and argued over. Everyone is different; everyone is a product of their own environment, dictated to by their personal tastes. Things like our favourite foods, favourite actors, favourite sports, books, music and yes, films, are […]
Should We Be Worried About The Flash Movie?
Henry Bevan on Warner Bros.’ The Flash movie… Ever since he zoomed onto the screen on the Justice League cartoon, The Flash became one of my favourite superheroes. He planted himself firmly alongside Batman, Spider-Man and Daredevil. When Ezra Miller was cast as Barry Allen, I couldn’t have been happier. Here was an actor who […]
The Death of Good Screenwriting in Hollywood
Tom Jolliffe on the death of good screenwriting in Hollywood… Awards season is in full swing, so it seems somewhat ironic to come and bemoan the dearth of good screenwriting within the modern studio system, but I’m going to anyway.

Why I prefer my Batman with a working libido
Anghus Houvouras on Batman and his libido… Batman is the most awesome comic book hero. I really don’t think that requires any discussion. I’m sure there are those out there that could make a strong argument in favor of Superman or Spider-Man, but for the majority of the geek community Batman is the ultimate embodiment […]
How The Young Pope Has Set The Bar for 2017’s TV
Samuel Brace on The Young Pope… Every once and a while, a new show comes along that makes a statement, a statement not necessarily thematic – though this one does – but a statement regarding its quality, one that says, “look out world, you’re going to have to be better now”. This is exactly what […]
Kurt Russell – A Retrospective
Kurt Russell is amazing. That’s all there really is to it, quite frankly. Hell, he’s so cool that when he gets cast in a Marvel superhero movie they decide he’s not going to play a superhero. He’s not even going to play a baddie. He’s going to play a planet! That’s right, a planet – in […]
