Is Nintendo GameCube the Most Underrated Console Ever?

New DVD release, , ,
A lot of words have been spoken about the Nintendo GameCube in the 20 years since the console’s release, but the one you’re most likely to hear if you ask fans about their thoughts on the console’s legacy is “underrated.” In fact, the popular sentiment is that the Nintendo GameCube is the most underrated console ever made. It’s a fascinating legacy for a device that once seemed destined to become Nintendo’s worst-selling home console ever (before the Wii U justifiably stole that title). We’ve talked about this more extensively in the past, but the Nintendo GameCube was something of a…

Link Tank: Saying Goodbye to Superstore After Six Underrated Seasons

New DVD release, , , , ,
Let us say farewell to Superstore, arguably one of the most underrated sitcoms in recent years. “From its premiere in 2015, Superstore never seemed to get the kind of attention it deserved, from audiences or critics. That made every season it was renewed feel like a gift. The show was just as funny as others in its league (Brooklyn Nine-Nine, Parks & Rec, and the like), but maybe a bit more subdued.” Read more at The Mary Sue.

Salma Hayek in Savages is One of the Most Underrated Movie Gangsters

Netflix, New DVD release, , , , ,
“You thought I wouldn’t notice,” cartel boss Elena Sánchez (Salma Hayek) demands of her loyal caporegime Ludo (a physically and emotionally imposing Benicio del Toro). The brutal and effective killer does not defend himself when the head of his family, and boss of bosses, slaps him with the force of a bull whip. He doesn’t even flinch. That would mean death. Oliver Stone’s Savages may not be his most renowned mob movie offering, but Hayek’s drug lord is one of cinema’s most groundbreaking gangsters. Stone is no stranger to iconic gangsters. He wrote the screenplay for Brian De Palma’s Scarface,…

15 Underrated Game Boy Advance Games

New DVD release, ,
When the Game Boy Advance hit shelves in Japan on March 21, 2001, Nintendo was still riding the incredible success of the original Game Boy. After more than a decade of the Game Boy’s handheld dominance, though, gamers eagerly awaited the next evolution in portable gaming. The GBA delivered that evolution. In fact, many features we now take for granted in portables like the Switch can be traced back to the GBA. The addition of shoulder buttons, full 32-bit color graphics, and eventually even built-in backlighting with the 2003 release of the Game Boy Advance SP were all lauded as…

Link Tank: Underrated Movies From the 2000s to Revisit

New DVD release, , ,
Check out these 11 films from the 2000s that are better than their Rotten Tomatoes scores made them out to be. “There is perhaps no decade in history with pop culture as trashy as the 2000s. The aughts were infamouslytrashy! Part of what contributed to that, aside from people ravenously consuming tabloids about heiresses and young starlets in outfits of questionable taste, was the lot of outrageous, cringe-worthy, and typically befallen to the category of good-bad-movie-that’s-fun-to-watch that came out at the time.” Read more at Thrillist.

New DVD release, , , , ,
Danish Netflix show The Rain has returned for its third and final season in the middle of a very real global pandemic, and has landed in a landscape that’s suddenly thinking a lot more about what might happen to the world a few years after a deadly virus has wiped out most of humanity. A cheery thought? Absolutely not, but a concern that surely permeated the late-stage creation and marketing of the show. From the first episode, it’s clear that there have been some revisions in the writers room since last season, with the driving force for the characters proposed…

Five Underrated Joel Schumacher Movies You Need to See

New DVD release, ,
To a certain generation of moviegoers, Joel Schumacher, who passed away this week, will be forever remembered as the man that introduced the world to Bat-nipples.    But that assessment belies the legacy of a director who, for all his faults, wasn’t afraid to take risks and rarely regretted anything he brought to the big screen.   The Batman & Robin filmmaker even remained philosophical on the subject of those distractingly erect rubber appendages.  “Maybe I was just naive but I’m still glad we did it,” he later reflected.    Indeed, Schumacher once declared: “I’m not embarrassed about anything I’ve done.”   And, Arnold…
