One of the most difficult hurdles to overcome with retro gaming is updating graphics to reflect modern technology. Pretty much every console before the Xbox 360 struggled with HD conversions, so hooking up your old Super Nintendo to your modern flat screen isn't going to look good at all. Even…
Black Panther got another trailer and the hype just keeps on rising. Earlier trailers hinted at how different this movie was going to be, but now that we get a slightly extended look at the setting and characters, we're even more excited. It's colorful, pretty much no one has an…
Barring some unseasonable heat waves, it’s about the time of year people start breaking out the fire pits. Neighborhoods start to smell like tasteful bonfires and people stop barbecuing so much and start splitting wood and roasting marshmallows. And they stop drinking so many light summer beers and move on…
The key to a great movie poster is capturing the atmosphere of the film. Those ensemble posters you see on blockbusters might satisfy actors’ agents, but for the audience, we miss out on crucial details, like genre, plot, and sometimes even the title. When we look at a poster, we…
The era of TV and movie/video game tie ins is long past, but the Stranger Things game for iOS and Android is making us wonder why. It's a top down adventure game that looks similar to the first Legend of Zelda, paying homage to the video games the kids from the series…

Retro gaming was once a field dominated entirely by cheap joysticks in Walgreen's "Toys and Games" aisle. Now, high quality retro systems are pouring out like Greeks from a wooden horse. The latest is the C64 Mini, a fully functional rerelease of the Commodore 64 that comes loaded with 64…
It seems like there's a new retro console release being announced (or happening) every day, and apparently today is no exception. The Zette System is what would happen if kids from the '80s loved gaming and wood shop at the same time with the same intensity. It's a retro gaming…
The Ferrari F2001 is a car pretty much every racing enthusiast has heard of. They'll tell you it's the car that won Ferrari its 11th Constructor Championship, the Monaco Grand Prix, Hungarian Grand Prix, and was driven by Michael Schumacher. It's a car that has earned its place in racing…
The standoff at the Waco compound is ripe for television adaptation. It has everything modern people love in a story, with the added benefit of being true. If you don't know the story, here's a quick primer. David Koresh founded his own religious cult and kept his followers captive on…
Fall is here, which means there’s a ton of new TV premiering, all of it vying for the public’s attention. And to the credit of whoever’s approving all these new shows, a lot of the series premiering this season have us excited. There are enough crime dramas, sitcoms, Netflix and…
We're always up for a good family comedy/drama and The Meyerowitz Stories (New and Selected) doesn't look like it's going to disappoint. The cast they've put together is an unexpected amalgam of different genres and eras, with Adam Sandler, Ben Stiller, Emma Thompson, Elizabeth Marvel, and Dustin Hoffman rounding out the…
Marvel's current Netflix offerings don't shy away from violence, but they also don't generally follow hyper violent people. Sure Wilson Fisk decapitated a man with a car door, Luke Cage has a bullet explode inside him, and Jessica Jones investigates violent crime, but those are all snippets from larger, tamer…
