TV Review: The Movies That Made Us – S3/E4: Aliens
Anyone who knows me even a little is likely to know how much of an Aliens fan I am, and to a lesser extent the Alien franchise in general; certainly […]
TV Review: BattleBots Season 1 (2015)
I’ve always been a fan of robot on robot violence, with the classic British TV show Robot Wars being a firm favourite. Unfortunately, Robot Wars is currently in a state […]
Film Review: Wish Dragon (2021)
A reworking of Aladdin set in modern day China, Wish Dragon is a colourful, fun CG-animation that has buckets of charm and plenty of anarchic humour. Din pines after his […]
Book Review: Fear Street: The New Girl (1989)
RL Stine is an absolute powerhouse in the world of gently scary, creepily amusing kid-friendly horror thanks to his perennially popular Goosebumps titles. There are sixty two titles in the […]
The Music of Dota: Dragon’s Blood: An Interview with Dino Meneghin

Opinion: Nintendo 35th Anniversaries
The cynic in me knows that 31st March 2021 marks the end of a financial year for Nintendo, so them ending production and even digital availability of their 35th Anniversary […]
TV Review: We Are The Champions

TV Review: Ash vs Evil Dead – Season 1, Episode 1: El Jefe (2015)

TV Review: The Toys That Made Us
I reviewed a single episode of Netflix series The Toys That Made Us recently (the one covering Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles) and found it to be full of interesting details about how the turtles became such a phenomenon.

TV Review: Floor is Lava
I’ve always had a soft spot for sports shows where non-professional athletes get to test their prowess against outlandishly designed courses. It probably started way back in the 80s with TV shows such as The Krypton Factor, which admittedly had a fairly bog standard assault course for its contestants to overcome, but progressed with shows such as American Gladiators and […]
Film Review: Whisper of the Heart (1995)
I’ve long been a fan of the gorgeous animated movies from Studio Ghibli; often tales infused with a sort of magical realism, their tales are most often set in real world environments, with supernatural or fantastical elements that put it the story just one step away from reality. Whisper of the Heart is a little different; though it does feature […]
TV Review: Tiger King
Netflix’s documentary series Tiger King: Murder, Mayhem and Madness dropped in full on the streaming service on the 20th of March. Since then, it seems like the world has been talking about it, blown away by the layer upon layer of craziness that the documentary throws at you over the course of its seven episodes. Though it’s extremely difficult to […]
