10 Gloriously Extreme Cartoons from the 1990s | Marvelous Videos

by

Red Stewart presents 10 extremely awesome cartoons from the 1990s courtesy of Marvelous Videos…. The 1990s were a time to be alive! Nirvana had introduced us to grunge, Jurassic Park and Pulp Fiction were released back-to-back, and cartoons were undergoing an era of unrestrained creativity. That’s not to say that every piece of animation was a diamond- for every Ren and Stimpy and […]

9 Great Remakes of Classic Animated Shows | Marvelous Videos

by

Red Stewart presents 9 great remakes of animated classics… Look, we get it- there’s a lot of hatred for remakes and reboots. They can seem lazy, the result of a company looking to produce a quick cash grab off of nostalgia, past talent, and an established fanbase. This isn’t just limited to movies. Many old-school […]

10 Great Animated TV Series and Movies Based on Video Games | Marvelous Videos

by

Red Stewart presents 10 of the greatest animated video game adaptations…. Video game adaptations have acquired a reputation for being, how do we put it, bad. From Silent Hill and Max Payne to Ratchet & Clank and Assassin’s Creed, we are aware of the gap in quality. Now, we all know about releases like Tomb Raider and Sonic the Hedgehog that are […]

Video Game Review – Those Who Remain

by

Red Stewart reviews Those Who Remain for PS4… Oh what a joy the indie market is! This is a place where game development is (mostly) free of overwrought media coverage, pointlessly-extravagant graphics, and the toxic desires of fans.

Video Game Review – Reversion: Chapter 3 – The Return

by

Red Stewart reviews Reversion: Chapter 3 – The Return for PC (Steam)… Point-and-click adventure titles have been a staple of computer gaming since the days of the DOS, their simple mechanics making them accessible to players of all ages and experiences. Unfortunately, that relatively easy production process has also given them a reputation for being […]

Video Game Review – Ramiwo

by

Red Stewart reviews Ramiwo for PC (Steam)… Playing Ramiwo, I was unfortunately reminded of another indie title called Virginia. Like Ramiwo, it marketed itself as a walking simulator with a deep narrative, but the end result was more akin to an overly-ambitious animated film that ultimately failed thematically and artistically. Developed by Matto and Bil Deerberg (I am […]

Black Lightning Season 3 Episode 16 Review – ‘The Book of War: Chapter Three: Liberation’
