Film Review: Wolf Children (2012)
Initially released in 2012 – with an English dub following in late 2013 – I’ve only just managed to watch Mamoru Hosoda’s wonderful animated movie, Wolf Children. Much like the […]
Review: Transformers: Battlegrounds
If you know me – or have read my articles for a while – you’ll know that I’m a huge Transformers fan. I’ve been a fan ever since they first […]
Comic Book Review: Byte-Sized #1
Though AWA Studios are so far known for having comics focused on material that’s definitely for mature readers – including dark, apocalyptic and even horror-tinged crime dramas – there’s no […]
TV Review: The Lego Star Wars Holiday Special
The original Star Wars Holiday Special was an unmitigated disaster. Quickly produced for TV in 1978 – just a year after the first movie was released – it was a […]
News: Clea (Switch)
It’s spooky season, which makes it the perfect time to discover 2D horror title Clea. After a successful release on PC (with an overall Very Positive review rating), Clea launches […]
Review: Hidden Through Time
Tapping into the same addictive character spotting, scene scanning fun that you get from the Where’s Wally (or Waldo, if you’re across the Atlantic) books, Hidden Through Time is a […]
TV Review: X-Men: The Animated Series – Season 1 (1992)
Thanks to the Disney/Fox deal and the launch of Disney’s seemingly unstoppable juggernaut of a streaming service – DisneyPlus – it’s never been easier to see the 1992 X-Men cartoon in its entirety. Back then, it was a huge deal to see Marvel’s Merry Mutants outside of their usual comic book format – but it was also a time when […]
Film Review: Scoob! (2020)
At first glance, Scoob! seems like it’s going to be an origin story for our favourite scaredy-dog and his mystery solving friends. Yet it soon becomes clear that it’s a shameless, awkward and somewhat cynical attempt to set up a shared universe featuring the classic Hanna-Barbera characters from the 60s and 70s. It all starts off nicely, with a young […]
Interstella 5555: The 5tory of the 5ecret 5tar 5ystem
I wasn’t a Daft Punk fan at first. Their first album – Homework – just felt way too repetitive; it sounded like a collection of songs built to dance to […]
It Came From The Bargain Bin – 5: Spongebob Squarepants: Creature from the Krusty Krab
Version Played: Wii Current CEX Price: £2.50 I was – technically – way too old for Spongebob when it first came out; however, I must admit that even the title […]
Batman: The Brave and the Bold – DS
Based on a cartoon that was broadcast between 2008-2011, Batman: The Brave and the Bold (which released in 2010) takes the show’s concept of featuring a different super hero team up in each episode and turns it into a fun, straightforward platformer with a few neat touches. The cartoon series was excellent; many episodes featured a pre-credits scene which quickly […]
Film Review: Batman vs Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (2019)
I was finally prompted to catch up with Batman vs Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles this week, following my TMNT 35th Anniversary article. It’s a cross-company meeting of iconic characters that was recently – and successfully – explored in the comics, with a third part of a trilogy now in the midst of being published, neatly coinciding with Batman’s 80th anniversary […]
TMNT: Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles – 35th Anniversary
Who knew that four anthropomorphic reptiles – named after renaissance artists – with a penchant for ass-kicking would turn out to be such enduring icons? Yet here we are, on […]
