So, let’s spend some time talking about the new Fantastic Four trailer. The first words ever spoken on the trailer are “Dr. Storm.” We see him placed in front of what looks like a board of directors, and that board is berating him for not delivering on whatever he promised them. It’s revealed that this partnership started six years...
There are spoilers in this review, you have been warned. There is certainly a unique aesthetic and feel to nearly all of the games developed by Bethesda Game Studios. They have a phenomenal record and pedigree for creating games that exhibit all of the key elements needed for a successful open world role playing game (RPG). Fallout 4, their latest...
  On their 40th anniversary tour, Rush came to Dallas with energy and a set that ran the gamut of their career. This seems appropriate considering that before the tour began, the members concurred that this tour would likely be their last, particularly because of drummer Neil Peart’s chronic tendonitis (and if you’ve ever seen what he does, it’s understandable...
Over the summer, Sony and Marvel Studios announced that they would no longer work together due to bargaining disagreements. This was unfortunate to hear, as Spider-Man is a fan favorite in the MCU.

Taking time off from writing for NBC shows like Community and 30 Rock, Glover found time to make a brand of alternative hip-hop, a style of rap that has recently emerged and can be seen with artists like A$AP Rocky, Chance The Rapper,...
Today is Valentine's Day, 2021, and it is currently snowing outside of my home as we speak. It is a light drizzle, and Texas isn't the place where snow comes, so it's a very special time and a very special occasion. Now, as everyone stays home in the warmth and comfort of their fire place, we all look to...
I personally don’t have a lot of experience with the Call of Duty franchise. I rarely bought First Person Shooters when I was younger, but the ones I had were really fun. I have also been hearing a split between a lot of my friends on their opinion on the newest installment, Call of Duty: WWII. After a while,...
