New York City is the greatest city on Earth; just ask any New Yorker. It’s also a setting which is home to an endless array of violent criminal stories. It is also home to an absurd amount of movies, some of which rank among the best movies of all time. New York City isn’t just any city, it’s a symbol of freedom and opportunity, but also, for decades of its existence, it was a symbol of broken dreams and urban blight....
The Flintstones is undoubtedly one of the most influential animated series of all time, and one of the best sitcoms for that matter, too. First airing in 1960, the prehistoric animated series followed the lives of Fred and Wilma Flintstone, and their best friends and neighbors Barney and Betty Rubble. The series offered up a slice-of-life look at the daily lives of two married couples, and how they worked and raised their families in a time long, long, long ago....
One of biggest franchises in pop culture over the last few decades has been Pokémon, which has expanded its reach from a video game brand to a collectible card game, anime series, films, toys, and more. Like any pop culture juggernaut, Pokémon has had to battle a huge field of competitors; some that are a direct rip-off and others that started around the same time and just got unfairly lumped in with all the other so-called imitators....
When a studio gives you money to shoot a pilot episode, hopes are so high. The actors are all rip-roaring and ready to deliver. Everyone involved is looking to create a pop culture phenomenon for the masses that will last long enough to give all of the workers a stable career for a few years. Not only does the network decide to pick your show up based on that Pilot episode, but your show also finds an audience and helps the network do gangbuster business....
You’d be forgiven for thinking it was pretty hard to make a work of literature feel as scary, grotesque and alarming as a film. After all, in a visual medium, you can see everything that unfolds in front of you. Despite that, there are some books out there that haven’t been given their chance to shine as a moving picture, whether they’re too horrifyingly creepy, unforgivably taboo, or simply impossible to recreate (and have people watch) in film form....
Does anyone actually know how this guy became a walking meme? Between John Mulaney’s comedic timing, delivery, and old time-y mannerisms, it’s only natural that he became probably the most relatable comedian out there. We can all relate to parents with different political views, being bossed around by airline workers, and maybe even lying for drugs (y’know, like a crime). But not all jokes were created equal and despite a solid repertoire, about half of the hilarity ascended to top tier memeage....
One of the many traditions most of us engage in during the holiday season is crashing on the sofa and tuning in to our favorite Christmas flick. You’ve got your Frosty the Snowman, A Charlie Brown Christmas, and of course, A Christmas Story that air every year, but what if you’re looking for a new kind of yuletide binge-fest? Sure, you can go to your old standbys, but what about some alternative holiday flicks that need more attention....
Like Firefly before it, Sense8 has become one of those shows bemoaned by sci-fi fans for ending too early. After two successful, yet expensive, seasons, Netflix canceled the complex, beautifully-filmed show. Because of this, fans never got to see their favorite storylines resolved. Though Netflix gave the show a finale movie to try to wrap things up, also much like Firefly, there was too much to cover. The series had a bunch of loose ends that didn’t get tied up into any sort of conclusion....
Comedy classic The Office is riddled with hilarious moments and truly unforgettable quotes. Between Michael, Dwight, and the rest of the gang, there is enough comedic content to last a lifetime. Some moments, everyone knows. Other great moments, however, might go unnoticed to the everyday fan. True fans know the series like the back of their hand, and can most likely recount every single hilarious line of the show. Trying to narrow down the best one-liners and scenes from the show is near impossible, but it’s safe to say if you would get a joke from The Office tattooed on your body, it must be pretty funny....
Sometimes you can’t beat a classic, and sometimes a fresh new take on a beloved film brings new light and love to the original film and can turn it into a wonderful franchise. When Disney first announced plans to return to the world of Hocus Pocus, the internet was a bit divided, but over all excited. Though fans were a bit hesitant when the news of the sequel was announced, as the original was utter perfection and they worried that revisiting this classic tale could result in a lackluster remake that undoes our happy ending and some of our favourite moments from the original....

Luckily, subtitles are really useful and enjoying music doesn’t necessarily require understanding the lyrics for a lot of people!...
It’s not easy to adapt a book into a film, but adapting a video games is another beast entirely. There are even more obstacles to maneuver in order to make a successful adaptation. Not all popular video games lend themselves to film adaptation, and even those that do suffer from the director’s understanding of the original content. Oftentimes, directors try to pander to fans of the game by adding nonsensical lore....

Well, Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker is pretty bad. It’s a pretty upsetting end to the Skywalker story, as it does many of its main characters pretty dirty. Today, we’re going to be diving a little bit deeper into that, and taking a look at ten characters that Star Wars: Rise of Skywalker does pretty dirty. There’s obviously a ton to get into, so let’s dive right into this mess....
