| TV, A Christmas Carol, BBC One, guy pierce By Brittany Knupper on Tue,1:43 I don't know if I want Charles Dickens' 'Christmas Carol' symbol of morally bankrupt, evil capitalism presented as also sexy? Read More > News, donald trump, Rand Paul, Whistleblowers By Vivian Kane on Tue,1:31 At a campaign rally in Kentucky Monday night, Donald Trump was joined onstage by Republican Senator Rand Paul, who was apparently eager to sell out everything he's claimed to believe in, in exchange for some applause and a metaphorical Kiss From Daddy. Read More > Movies, Kitty Pryde, X-Men By Princess Weekes on Tue,12:56 It looks like Kitty Pryde is another unsuspecting victim of the Disney-Fox merger.

Read More > TV, clint barton, Hawkeye, Kate Bishop By Rachel Leishman on Tue,12:28 Were Hailee Steinfeld's comments just meant for her involvement as Kate Bishop? Potentially but also, I wouldn't put it past Marvel to delay production until they know what's going on with Renner. Which, to me, isn't fair to those who were excited about Kate Bishop getting her time Read More > TV, Bucky Barnes, The Falcon and the Winter Soldier, The Winter Soldier By Rachel Leishman on Tue,11:32 James Buchanan Barnes has been a part of the Marvel world since 1941. Shockingly, he also has an entire storyline that is separate from his best friend, Steve Rogers, but we rarely saw a glimpse of that in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Read More > Movies, Fantastic Beasts (franchise), Harry Potter (franchise), J.K. Rowling By Princess Weekes on Tue,11:31 The Harry Potter money train just can't stop won't stop, even if we beg it to really, really hard. Read More > Movies, Doctor Sleep, review, The Shining By Kate Gardner on Tue,9:45 Mike Flanagan knows his ghosts, and I’m not just talking about the spooky and spectral kind. In the first episode of his masterful The Haunting of Hill House, one of his lead characters reveals his take on ghosts as being “a lot of things. A memory, a daydream, a secret. Grief, anger, guilt. But, in my experience, most times they're just what we want to see. Most times, a ghost is a wish.” Read More > TV, His Dark Materials By Rachel Leishman on Mon,10:00 His Dark Materials gives new life to Lyra and her journey in a way the film The Golden Compass never could. It's going to be exciting to see where the show is going to take us but overall, it is starting off strong! Read More > News, donald trump, E. Jean Carroll, sexual assault By Vivian Kane on Mon,6:05 After Carroll's allegations (in the form of an excerpt from her memoir) were published in New York Magazine, Trump responded the way he has dozens of times before: by denying the accusations and insulting the woman making them. Read More > Books, fantasy, Tamora Pierce By Princess Weekes on Mon,6:04 One of my favorite series as a child was the Tortall series by fantasy author Tamora Pierce. If any series shaped a lot of my tastes when it came to who I wanted to be as a writer and creator, it was the Tortall books, which is why I am so excited about the news that it looks like the series might finally get an adaptation. Read More > Movies, Joaquin Phoenix, Joker By Rachel Leishman on Mon,6:00 I'm exceptionally tired of the discourse surrounding Joker mainly because a) The Dark Knight did this story better and b) it isn't anything new. Read More > Movies, Avengers: Endgame, things we saw today, Thor By Kaila Hale-Stern on Mon,5:58 Here we are, still talking about the myriad plot holes in 'Avengers: Endgame,' borne back ceaselessly into the past. Read More > TV, Game of Thrones, George R.R. Martin, House of the Dragon By Princess Weekes on Mon,4:40 The changes made to the rape scene between Drogo (Jason Momoa) and Dany (Emilia Clarke) in the pilot of 'Game of Thrones' speaks to how the series treated race. Read More > Movies, Daniel Craig, James Bond, Phoebe Waller-Bridge By Brittany Knupper on Mon,4:03 My favorite, frosty boy Daniel Craig spoke with the Sunday Times recently about the latest Bond film (No Time to Die), and the decision to bring in Emmy winning writer (and my future best friend) Phoebe Waller-Bridge to contribute to the script. Read More > News, donald trump, impeachment By Vivian Kane on Mon,3:47 You can tell that Trump is starting to create a backup plan for his go-to catchphrase of a defense. Read More > TV, Anthony Mackie, Sebastian Stan, The Falcon and the Winter Soldier By Rachel Leishman on Mon,2:58 Seeing Sam Wilson and James Buchanan Barnes working together, while their actors "war" offscreen? This is what dreams are made of. Read More > TV, dragula, Landon Cider, Netflix By Brittany Knupper on Mon,2:36 The third season of my favorite drag-reality-competition-show, Dragula (created and hosted by the Boulet Brothers), wrapped at the end of October (and all three seasons are now available to stream on Netflix). This season’s winner was the incredible Landon Cider - a Los Angeles based drag king. Read More > Movies, Artificial Intelligence, gunpower & sky, Jewel Staite By Kaila Hale-Stern on Mon,2:02 Here's your chance to get a sneak peek at Jewel Staite as a terrifyingly on-point nanny in an AI-infused future that seems all too possible.
