Back in 1969, the world was introduced to the animated series, Scooby-Doo, Where Are You! We got to meet the titular talking dog and his friends. We’ve got Shaggy, Fred, Daphne, and Velma. In the years since we’ve had multiple versions of the show in various forms. There was the alternate timeline of A Pup Named Scooby-Doo, the legitimately supernatural, The 13 Ghosts of Scooby-Doo, and that Velma series too. We don’t really speak of that last one. But coming up we’ve got one that looks legitimately interesting in the form of a Scooby-Doo anime. Yokoso Scooby-Doo! Now, this isn’t…

The marketing machine can’t be stopped. It doesn’t matter what it’s for. We live in a world where marketing and publicity are relentless. Sometimes these things can be pleasant surprises like when a celebrity shows up to randomly surprise fans or guests. That’s the kind of feeling that Disney was going for in a marketing event for The Mandalorian and Grogu film. It backfired. The Event On Sunday, May 17th, 2026, the Disney Instagram account posted a video of a group of people at the Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge area. They were about to go on the Smugger’s Run ride…
In the world of horror films, there are few props less iconic than masks. Michael Myers has his signature painted William Shatner mask. Jason Voorhees has his hockey mask. Halloween III: Season of the Witch made masks into a weapon. But these props were all created for their respective films. In the case of the Scream franchise, the famous Ghostface mask already existed. That’s why the rights to the mask have been batted around in the court system lately. Finally, there’s a resolution to that matter. The History The story goes back to the production of the first Scream when…
Here we go again! We recently discussed changes that were happening to the Academy Awards. Procedures and nomination criteria are new for various categories. We’ve seen new categories added. Now casting directors can receive Oscars! Thee’s even an eventual shift coming to the ceremony being broadcast on YouTube, and two ceremonies in a row hosted by Conan O’Brien. The latter of those is not changing as the former late night host has picked up the emcee job for a third year in a row. ABC is Keen On Conan After the ceremony earlier this year, Conan received glowing reviews from…
Saturday Night Live has been an American television institution for over fifty years now. For many people and probably most of you reading this, you don’t remember an age where you grew up without it. That’s the kind of staying power and legacy that very few programs hold. When we previously reported that the United Kingdom was going to be getting their own version, we didn’t quite know what to think. Lorne Michaels certainly carved out success for the show here in the States. Would that same magic work across the pond? Well, it’s done enough to get a second…
Well, that’ll do it. The most expected piece of news in video gaming is finally official. This generation of video game consoles has been one of the more chaotic ones for consumers. The PlayStation 5 debuted to severe shortages, the Xbox Series X/S severely flopped, and the Nintendo Switch 2 arrived late to the party but blew the doors open with sales. And for the first time in modern history, the prices of all the consoles have increased or are set to increase mid generation. We previously reported on rumors that the price of the Nintendo Switch 2 was going…
In 1997, Nintendo released the spectacularly wonderful game, Star Fox 64. It combined on-rails shooting with areas of free roaming dogfighting. The end result was a game with constant action and thanks to the characters, a lot of personality. Audiences had seen the Star Fox team before on the groundbreaking SNES title, simply called Star Fox. The technology of the Nintendo 64 made its sequel a much more expansive and fully realized title. The legacy of it looms large over the franchise. So large in fact that Nintendo just keeps remaking it. Just like the Big N is doing right…
The late ’80s and early ’90s television stations were packing their line ups with teen sitcoms. Thanks to the rise of Nickelodeon, kids could look forward to sitcoms that were aimed towards them. The networks didn’t slouch on this either. They saw the market opportunity and pounced. That’s why in 1989, NBC gave audiences Saved by the Bell. One of the breakout stars was Elizabeth Berkley in her role as Jessie Spano. After the show ended, she infamously appeared in the 1995 movie, Showgirls. It flopped. Hard. So whatever happened to Elizabeth Berkley after that? The “Showgirls” Dilemma To understand…
There are very few characters in ’90s television that have the fame and infamy of Steve Urkel. From 1989 to 1998, Jaleel White portrayed the bespectacled, annoying nerd on Family Matters. His presence changed the show drastically. It was supposed to be about a working class family in Chicago, making their way through life. What it turned into was a series of misadventures that occasionally dove into science-fiction, fantasy. All of this thanks to Urkel, his inventions, and and his screen presence. Once the show ended, what became of Jaleel White? Life as Urkel The role of Urkel was something…
Well, that was certainly something, wasn’t it? Celebrity gossip and controversy isn’t rare in the world. Even with that being the case, the feud that developed between Blake Lively and Justin Baldoni was a huge deal. The back and forth that unfolded over what happened behind the scenes of It Ends With Us will live on in Hollywood infamy. Lively and Baldoni had to know this as well. Who knows what was going to come to light if their dispute went to trial. We may never know the answer to that as the case just ended with a settlement. Last…
