Oh, Hooters. The only restaurant where you have to try justifying that you’re going there for the food. Hooters has made no effort to hide their brand of appeal, so to say. After all, when the name of your restaurant is deliberately a slang term for breasts, you’ve picked your hill to die on. Or should we say your huge… tracts of land. Allegedly they have good wings though from what people say. Not good enough though to help provide support for Hooters as it turns out; the restaurant chain has filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy. The restaurant industry never…

Apple TV+ has been making waves for itself with some astounding original series. The biggest one as of late has been “Severance,” but there’s also “Silo,” “Shrinking,” “Ted Lasso,” and “Foundation,” just to name a few. There is also the upcoming “Chief of War” series, telling the story of the unification of the Hawaiian islands. One of the elements to this series that makes it so unique is the inclusion of a Polynesian cast. Jason Momoa who will be joined by Maori actor Temuera Morrison. Momoa needs little introduction given his roles as Khal Drogo and Aquaman, amongst others. Morrison…

It has not been an easy time to be a Looney Tunes fan lately. Warner Bros. Discovery has done a lot to kind of push them out of existence. The entire catalog of classic cartoons has been removed from the Max streaming service and they didn’t want to release the feature films they had with the classic cartoon characters. One of them recently got released, “The Day the Earth Blew Up: A Looney Tunes Movie.” Then there’s “Coyote Vs. Acme,” which was shelved as a tax-write off with speculation that it was going to be bought by another distributor. Now…

When Nintendo scored big with “The Super Mario Bros.” movie in 2023, it wasn’t surprising to see them pushing ahead with other franchises into the world of film. And unless The Big N was going to try and pull a fast one on people, what other franchise was more obvious to pursue than The Legend of Zelda. Sure enough, in November of 2023, Nintendo announced they would be teaming with Sony to distribute a live-action Legend of Zelda movie to be directed by Wes Ball. While we still don’t have a lot of details about the project, we did learn…

We should probably start this article by stating that we are not saying that Fyre Fest 2 is a scam. We can’t know something like that for sure. What we can say is that when we reported last month that the event was booked without any kind of line-up, and the event scheduled for the end of May, with tickets going for up to $1.1 million dollars; none of this was a good sign of anything. But hey, at least it had a location! Until it didn’t, and now it has a different one. The saga of Fyre Fest 2…

This is a story that comes almost straight from urban legends or a horror movie; made all the more horrific by the fact it really happened. Everyone knows the concept of children being afraid of a monster under their bed. It’s a fairly standard story about childhood fears and one that occurs to some kids in real life as well. But what if someone went to check under the bed and there actually was something under there? Now imagine it’s not a monster but a grown man. That’s precisely what occurred at a house near Great Bend, Kansas on March…

Well, you read the headline, you know what you’re getting into now. There have been horrendous stories about kids lashing out against their parents because of being punished. One of the most infamous cases of this involved a 17-year-old who shot his parents in 2007 because they took away his Xbox. We wish we could say this kind of behavior couldn’t happen twice, but three Texas sisters have proven us wrong with their attempted homicide of their mother. On Sunday the 23rd of March, a trio of sisters aged 14, 15, and 16 did not react well to their 39-year-old…

“Yes, no, maybe? I don’t know. Can you repeat the question?” Those immortal words from the band They Might Be Giants kick off the opening to “Malcolm in the Middle.” The Fox sitcom ran from 2000-2006, and starred Frankie Muniz as the titular Malcolm. The show’s popularity may be even stronger today thanks to Bryan Cranston. His performance as Malcolm’s father, Hal, has been given more recognition thanks to Cranston’s turn as Walter White in “Breaking Bad.” Almost the entire family is coming back together for the upcoming revival series. The sitcom is coming back as a four-episode stint on…

Last August we were shattered to report that Game Informer, one of the premier gaming magazines of all time, had unceremoniously been shuttered. Without any warning, the entire staff was let go, the website was taken down, and over 30 years of gaming journalism was wiped out. The magazine had been owned by GameStop, who had no shortage of financial woes. But no one expected Game Informer to suddenly shut down like it did. Now, here we are over half a year later, and the publication has new signs of life. The amazing turn of fortune for the magazine was…

The “Street Fighter” franchise is a fighting game institution as well as a pop culture one. You don’t have to be a fighting aficionado to know who Ryu, Chun Li or Guile are. Back in 2023, a new film entry was announced, and we were cautiously optimistic. Things were quiet until June of 2024 when the original directors exited the project. Then more silence. Cut to February of 2025, and news of a replacement director hit. A new director wasn’t really alarming for the status of the project, but keeping the same early 2026 release date did.Which doesn’t matter now,…
