It is truly hard to fathom how banning books is a good thing, and that the occurrence still exists.To some, it’s a suppression of free speech. To others, it’s a suppression of ideas. Many compare the practice to an Orwellian nightmare of authoritarian control and subjugation. Or hey, maybe it’s just a good-natured attempt to stop people from learning things you don’t want them to. According to one school in Texas, one of those things that needs to be suppressed is a graphic novel adaptation of Anne Frank’s “The Diary of a Young Girl.” Oh, and also The Bible. The…

The mullet- the haircut that starts off with asking “why,” and then ends with answering, “because I want to.” There are few hairstyles that are so reviled, admired, treated with admiration. That is to say, there are some mullets that are so grandiose in nature, someone who would otherwise hate the style would still look at it and say, “that’s impressive.” If you’re one of those people, or just a fan in general, you need to act fast and let your vote be heard. That’s right, it’s the last day to vote for the 2022 Kid’s Mullet Championship! This is…

The film industry and fans are still reeling from Warner Bros. Discovery axing “Batgirl” and an animated “Scoob!” sequel. Despite both films being almost finished, the movies were shelved indefinitely in favor of a tax write-off. It’s enough to cause speculation as to what other upcoming projects could be facing the chopping block. While we don’t know what all will get cancelled, reports indicate three things are still confirmed to be coming- all from the DC Universe. “Green Lantern” Series- Go! Earlier this year, a Green Lantern series was announced, with Finn Whitrock cast to play Guy Gardner. HBO Max…

Of the many interesting stories we’ve been following this year, The CW saga kind of takes the cake. There was a veritable bloodbath of content cancellations two months ago. More recently the reveal that through years of activity, The CW have never been profitable. What the hell was going on at the network? We not only know a bit more about the channel’s future, but some surprising information about its struggles. Nexstar Media Group now owns a 75% stake in the network, with the remaining 25% being evenly split between Warner Bros. Discovery and Paramount. Their official website has already…

Another social media trend, another set of circumstances that nearly costs lives. It should be painfully aware to most people that a great deal of social media trends are moronic. The risks involved often aren’t worth it. How many wildfires and deaths does it take for people to realize that explosive gender reveal parties for babies aren’t going to make you famous in a good way? At least with most of these trends though, they’re not strictly illegal. The same can’t be said though for one that teaches how to steal cars. In 2021, a group of people started posting…

It only seemed to be a matter of time before Ezra Miller would have to come face-to-face with the controversies surrounding them. “The Flash” star has been making headlines for all the wrong reasons, ranging from felony burglary to assault, and possible child endangerment. All the while, Warner Bros. Discovery has remained silent on their antics. “The Flash,” despite the gravity of the allegations, has remained on the upcoming release slate.This brings us to yesterday’s news that Miller has released a statement, saying they are seeking treatment for the “intense crisis” we’ve been witnessing. “Having recently gone through a time…

“The Goonies” holds a special place in the hearts of many. The adventurous comedy featured a list of names both in-front of and behind the camera that resonate with people to this day. Josh Brolin, Sean Astin, Coredy Feldman, and Joe Pantoliano all featured in the cast. The story was created by Steven Spielberg, turned into a screenplay by Chris Columbus, and directed by the late, great, Richard Donner. Even though its been 37 years since the film came out, interest has remained high. High enough apparently that it almost got a sequel. Pantoliano says an idea for a sequel…

The Canadian music scene is often stereotyped alongside several big names, Rush, Alanis Morissette, Bryan Adams, etc. What’s not as talked about is the alternative and punk scene that came out of Canada in the late 70’s and early 80’s. The Tragically Hip was one such group that drew some international fame and attention. Another that deserved such attention but never really achieved it, was Teenage Head. Now the long and noteworthy tales takes a solemn turn with the murder of lead guitarist Gord Lewis. Lewis was one of the group’s founding members in Hamilton, Canada back in 1975. Initially…

HBO Max hasn’t exactly been tearing things up in terms of solid decision-making lately. There’s a great deal to be said about the programming choices they’re making with HBO Max versus Discovery+, but that’s another discussion for another time. Still, it seems like there’s no end to their absurdity as we now know that their recently acquire series, “Pennyworth” was a new name for season 3, and it’s facepalmingly awful. Having aired on Epix for the past two seasons but moving to HBO Max, “Pennyworth” will now be titled “Pennyworth: The Origin of Batman’s Butler.” We can’t say the decision…

Sometimes when the axe of cancellation swings, it swings hard and it swings heavily. We’ve been seeing this at HBO Max when it comes to their original content. The biggest casualty of all this has been “Batgirl.” If a big project like this got shelved, then there had to be some smaller productions that were going to suffer too. Thanks to some info from Kevin Smith, we know about at least one more of them that was on the chopping block. One of the DC projects that was set to come to HBO Max was an anthology series called “Strange…
