New Baby Yoda “Galactic Snackin” Star Wars Toy Pays Tribute to Grogu’s Most Monstrous Moments

New DVD release, , , , ,
One of the great joys of the first season of The Mandalorian was watching Grogu eat. We loved the scene where he sipped from a bowl of broth while Mando and Cara Dune fought outside a cantina. We even giggled when he ate that space slug on Arvala-7 (although, in retrospect, perhaps we shouldn’t have). These were charming moments that fleshed out the character’s toddler-like personality. Then the eggs happened. In season two, fans learned about Grogu’s unique appetite for cruelty. Not only did he steal a kid’s cookies and eat them in front of him, he also wasted no…

10 World of Warcraft Burning Crusade Moments We Can’t Wait to Relive in Classic

New DVD release, , , , , ,
Much like the reveal of Diablo 2 Resurrection, many Blizzard fans were anticipating the eventual release of The Burning Crusade Classic as the follow-up to WoW Classic. It seemed inevitable that Blizzard would revisit the first WoW expansion following “vanilla” WoW‘s recent success. And yet, there’s something undeniably magical about the confirmation that we’re this much closer to the essential re-release of WoW: The Burning Crusade. Not only was TBC the first of many expansions in WoW history, it is what many consider to be one of the best eras in the history of one of the best video game…

Attack on Titan Recap: Essential Moments to Remember Before Season 4

New DVD release, , , , , ,
Many anime series are able to grab a hold of mainstream audiences, but the kind of attention that’s surrounded Attack on Titan is on a whole other level. The anime series only has three seasons, but it’s taken over seven years for it to reach its finish and the enthusiasm towards the property has never waned. Attack on Titan looks at Eren Jaeger and his fellow resistance fighters who wage war against man-eating beasts known as Titans.  What initially started as a war story with monsters has evolved into a truly epic character study and masterclass in serialized storytelling. Each…

The Top 15 Most Shameless Moments

New DVD release,
If you missed Shameless last year, there is no reason to worry. A cast member or two will be ready at the top of Dec. 6’s premiere to curse you for being the spoiled suburban princess that you are. But as enjoyable as every season of irrepressible Gallagher behavior can be, there’s little denying that each year features something so Shameless that it dwarfs the rest of the bad behavior that came before it. These are moments that are so crass in their unapologetic depravity that they transcend being more broken furniture on the South Side, and instead become a…

D.B. Cooper in Pop Culture: 15 Best Movie and TV Moments

New DVD release, , ,
On November 24, 1971, a man calling himself Dan Cooper hijacked Northwest Orient Airlines flight 305 from Portland to Seattle (a trip known as a “milk run” due to the short distance involved). A few minutes into the voyage, he got the attention of a flight attendant and made it known that he had a bomb that he intended to use unless his demands were met. What did he want? $200,000 in unmarked bills and four parachutes. After the plane was on the ground in Seattle, the passengers were let go, the plane was refueled, and Cooper was granted his…

The Sopranos’ Funniest Moments

New DVD release, ,
The Sopranos’ genius was in telling structured stories with well-established themes, while still aping life in all its dirty, disorganised, contradictory, open-ended glory. The show wasn’t a drama, or a comedy, or a tragedy, or a farce. It was all of them. It was none of them. It was life. Creator David Chase and his crack team of writers never lost sight of the essential truth that no matter how cruel, harrowing or horrid life becomes, it’s always laced through with laughs: oftentimes the laughter and the horror rise in tandem. Here, then, are some of The Sopranos’ funniest moments,…

CBBC’s Broom Cupboard at 35: Memorable Childhood Moments

New DVD release, , , ,
On the afternoon of the 9th of September 1985, UK children were introduced to their new big brother. Phillip Schofield, a vision in a side-parting, a geometric print jumper and a beaming smile, arrived in the Children’s BBC Broom Cupboard to babysit the nation’s kids for an hour and a half every weekday. Schofield’s job was to ferry us through the post-school slump and drop us off at Neighbours no later than 5.35pm. He let us watch cartoons, wished us happy birthday, praised our felt-tip drawings of Jimbo and the Jet Set, and never once told us off for eating…

30 Rock: A One-Time Special – The Best Moments

New DVD release,
The following contains spoilers for 30 Rock: A One-Time Special. Unlike the Parks and Recreation reunion special earlier this year, 30 Rock: A One-Time Special wasn’t designed to bring comfort to folks during a pandemic or raise money for charity. Instead it was a Trojan horse to sell ad space. It’s not a surprise; since network’s upfronts were canceled, the 30 Rock “special” was created to tout NBC’s slate of programming, talent, and their new streaming service, Peacock, to journalists and advertisers. The advertorial nature of the endeavor kept many independently-owned NBC affiliates from airing the “reunion” altogether, and though…

Gordon Lightfoot: If You Could Read My Mind Directors Talk Epic and Intimate Musical Moments

New DVD release, , , , , ,
The documentary Gordon Lightfoot: If You Could Read My Mind, directed by Martha Kehoe and Joan Tosoni, is an intimate look at a prolific singer-songwriter who enriches and is enriched by the history of Canada. Most of the world knows Lightfoot as the singer with the recognizable baritone who put out hits like “Sundown,” “If You Could Read My Mind,” and “Early Mornin’ Rain.” But in his native country, he is a national treasure. Before international fame, in 1967, he actually wrote and performed a piece called “The Tale of Canada” for the country’s 100th anniversary. After worldwide renown, he…

Star Wars: Best Darth Maul Moments from The Clone Wars and Beyond

New DVD release, , ,
This Star Wars article contains spoilers. Since his debut in The Phantom Menace, Darth Maul has demanded the attention of Star Wars fans everywhere. In 1999, Maul looked unlike any villain that had come before in the saga, and the movie’s high-energy lightsaber duel is still one of the most memorable parts of the Prequel Trilogy. It’s unfortunate, then, that Maul was originally created by George Lucas as a one-off character, present only to re-establish the threat of the Sith.  But you can’t keep a good character down. Maul returned in The Clone Wars season 4 to introduce even more…
