Cruella Meme Reactions Reveal Problem with Streaming Blockbusters

New DVD release, , , , ,
The following contains Cruella spoilers (but only what you already know from Twitter and Instagram). Cruella de Vil’s mother was killed by a vicious pack of Dalmatians. It sounds goofy to read that in print, but for many social media users who didn’t go to the theater opening weekend or shell out a steep $30 for Cruella on Disney+, this is likely all they’ve heard. And it’s true, early on in the Emma Stone-led film, a pack of Dalmatians really push mama off a cliff. However, there is a lot more to the movie than this questionable plot point, not…

“EAGate” Controversy Reactions Call for the End of FIFA Loot Boxes

New DVD release, , ,
A series of Twitter posts grouped under “#EAGATE” seemingly reveal that at least one EA employee has been selling FIFA Ultimate Team cards to fans for thousands of Euros. For context, FIFA Ultimate Team cards are used in the franchise’s Ultimate Team mode. Described by EA as the “most popular mode in FIFA,” Ultimate Team is basically a combination of a CCG deck builder and a GM mode. Essentially, it sees you try to build the best team possible over the course of multiple in-game years largely through opening card packs that contain everything from upgrades to new players. While…

How Netflix’s Moxie Explores Different Reactions to Feminism

New DVD release, , , , ,
Directed by Amy Poehler, glorious coming of age comedy Moxie hit Netflix last week and was a joyful celebration of giving a damn. The movie sees 16-year-old Vivian (Hadley Robinson) inspired by her mum’s (Poehler) former feminist escapades and the misogyny she sees at her school to produce her own Zine (called Moxie) to unite her class mates and try to make a difference. Sometimes she gets it wrong. Sometimes she hits out at the wrong people. But Vivian and her friends’ determination, hope, doggedness and, sure, moxie, sees real change emerge. It’s funny and vital and an absolute breath…

Wonder Woman 1984: First Sequel Reactions Are In

New DVD release, , , ,
While the world is still a few weeks away from seeing Wonder Woman 1984, the first members of the press have now seen the film. While they have been sworn to secrecy until December 15th, when the embargo lifts on full-on reviews, we are getting some initial reactions to the WB sequel, and they are positive. From Den of Geek’s Kayti Burt (um, me)… #WW1984 made me cry several times—sometimes, in the most unexpected of places. It's the only kind of (superhero) movie I have time for right now: one that can still see beauty in our broken world, and…

Doctor Who: A History of Dalek Redesigns and Fan Reactions

New DVD release, , , ,
I think we can all agree that the 2005 redesign of the Daleks was a huge success, right? Nobody had any issues with them surely? Apart from Raymond Cusick, who originally designed them in 1963, and noted in Doctor Who Confidential ‘To them rivets and bolts are archaic.’ So obviously you can’t please everyone. Last Thursday, which was approximately four years ago, the Radio Times was released with a new Dalek design on the cover. The slightly taller and thinner black Dalek is based on the Reconnaissance Dalek from the 2018 special ‘Resolution’, something which executive producer Chris Chibnall says…

Supernatural: The Internet’s Best Reactions to the Series Finale

New DVD release, , , ,
This article contains MAJOR spoilers for the Supernatural series finale. Welp, there you have it. After 15 seasons of road trips and high-stakes battles, Supernatural has come to an end—and people have feelings (as they should). Interestingly, the penultimate episode of Supernatural wrapped up the major story arc of the season, leaving the final episode to get a bit more, um, creative with its ending. What did that look like? Pie festivals and vampires, of course. “Carry On” sees Sam and Dean settling back into “normal” life following their definitive battle with God. The stakes are a lot lower, but…

Marvel’s Spider-Man Miles Morales: Spider-Cat Twitter Reactions and Memes Are Amazing

New DVD release, , , , ,
It’s over, dear reader. Marvel’s Spider-Man: Miles Morales just secured Game of the Year and the PlayStation 5 just won the next-gen console war with the reveal of Spider-Cat, the cute bodega cat who will help Miles fight crime in the upcoming superhero adventure. The cat’s name is also Spider-Man and he rides around in Miles’ backpack, ready to pounce on evildoers. No gaming news has ever mattered to this feline-obsessed writer. If the above paragraph doesn’t already make you rush to pre-order Spider-Man: Miles Morales, perhaps the gameplay video (courtesy of Game Informer) will: I would not want to…
