Telltale S Stranger Things Ost Released Online

Telltale Games has had an interesting history. After slow-rolling its success early on, the developer burst into the scene with The Walking Dead.

The 10 Best Badass Action Movie One Liners From The 1990S Ranked

While there have been a few good ones since the turn of the century, when it comes to action movies, they really don’t make them like they used to. Sure, the explosions may be bigger and better than ever, but the typical modern day protagonist just can’t hold a candle to the over the top heroes that helped to punctuate some of the genre’s earlier offerings. There were many things that made the action heroes of old so iconic, but the most memorable thing about them was perhaps their tendency to drop cheesy catchphrases and obnoxious one-liners at every given opportunity....

The 100 Season 7 Episode 16 Review The Last War

This THE 100 review contains spoilers The 100 Season 7 Episode 16 Ultimately, The 100 turned in a series finale that’s better than the back half of its final season, but not by a whole lot. The use of two fan-favorite characters (Lexa and Abby), and a last-minute twist, are responsible for much of the emotionally satisfying material. So much of the rest, including the saber-rattling and Sheidheda skulking around, feel like a waste of precious time, plot missteps from earlier in the season that long overstayed their welcome....

The Boys Creator Baffled At Trump Supporters Idolizing Villains

Homelander, a self-absorbed, xenophobic, misogynistic white nationalist who fell in love with a literal Nazi, has been one of the show’s most prominent villains since episode 1, leading Kripke to openly wonder just how anyone could come to the conclusion that this is a character worth rooting for. Sure, he’s unhinged, literally evil, and completely incapable of genuinely connecting with any human on even the most base level, but hey, he can fly and go “pew pew” with his eye lasers....
