Mary Anne Butler (Mab) has been part of the fast-paced world of journalism since she was 15, getting her start in album reviews and live concert coverage for a nationally published (print) music magazine. She eventually transitioned to online media, writing for such sites as UGO/IGN, ComicsOnline, Geek Magazine, Ace of Geeks, Aggressive Comix (where she is still Editor-in-Chief), Bleeding Cool (where she was News Editor), and now Nerdbot as Editor-In-Chief. Over the past 10 years, she’s built a reputation at conventions across the globe as a cosplayer (occasionally), photographer (constantly), panelist and moderator (mostly), and reporter (always). Interviews, reviews, observations, breaking news, and objective reporting are the name of the game for the founder of Harkonnen Knife Fight, a Dune-themed band with an international presence. Though she be but little, she is fierce.

We seriously can’t wait to have every figure in NECA Toys’ new “Gargoyles” line! It’s one of our absolute favorite animated series. Yes, we even had ALL of the original run action figures, including the Rippin’ Rider Motorcycle. We’ve already seen NECA’s Goliath, Demona, and Thalog. We’re hoping the addition of “Gargoyles” dog Bronx means even more are on the way. Last night on Christmas Eve, the company teased a tease of the packaging Bronx will come with. AND, news that he’ll include a set of draped wings for Goliath! Bronx is expected to ship sometime in the spring of…

Disney+ released yet another featurette for their upcoming “Star Wars” series. As you’ll recall, “The Mandalorian” reintroduced the iconic bounty hunter character Boba Fett. His return was SO GREAT in fact, that the powers that be opted to give him his very own show.”The Book of Boba Fett” stars Temuera Morrison as Boba, and Ming-Na Wen as Fennic Shand. Robert Rodriguez serves as showrunner, and will direct 3 of the 7 episodes. We have some questions, though. Like who is this new character on this awesome lookin’ bike?! “The Book of Boba Fett” premieres on Disney+ on December 29th, 2021.

The year is 2006. There is arguably no bigger movie-turned-television star than Kiefer Sutherland on Fox’s hit series “24.” Son of legendary actor Donald Sutherland, Kiefer made a name for himself in films like “Stand By Me,” “The Lost Boys,” and “Young Guns.” He’s in the process of making a documentary, “I Trust You Not To Kill Me,” about this band signed to his music label, Ironworks. Rocco DeLuca and the Burden is out on tour, with Sutherland as their manager. Manu Boyer directs. It actually isn’t a bad docu, especially if you’re a fan of the genre. But something…

Okay to be fair, this IS the “Uncharted” trailer that was prefacing “Spider-Man: No Way Home” in theaters. Kinda like how Marvel Studios just officially released that “Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness” teaser. But, check out trailer 2 for Sony Pictures’ upcoming live-action adaptation of popular video game franchise, “Uncharted.” Street-smart thief Nathan Drake (Tom Holland) is recruited by seasoned treasure hunter Victor “Sully” Sullivan (Mark Wahlberg) to recover a fortune lost by Ferdinand Magellan 500 years ago. What starts as a heist job for the duo becomes a globe-trotting, white-knuckle race to reach the prize before the…

Author Andy Weir is once again tackling hard-hitting science questions. No, it’s not a Mark Watney problem, nor Ryland Grace’s constant chaos. Instead, it’s an explanation about The Force, and the Sith Rule of Two. Weir is one of my favorite people to interview, and I have to tell you, this is EXACTLY the type of conversations he has, even when the tapes aren’t rolling. He posted his thoughts on The Force on his official Facebook page, and we just had to share it. “I’ve decided that the Force is conserved. And that the Dark Side and Light Side energies…

We are absolutely delighted to share with you the first teaser for the upcoming Marvel Studios film “Doctor Strange and the Multiverse of Madness.” Sam Raimi directs this MCU sequel, which was originally going to be directed by Scott Derrickson. This is the teaser that was shown as a stinger at the end of the “Spider-Man: No Way Home” credits, which is kinda awesome considering Raimi’s history with ol web head. We FINALLY get to see Wanda (Elizabeth Olson) and Strange (Benedict Cumberbatch) face to face after everything she did to the citizens of Westview in “WandaVision.” Baron Mordo (Chiwetel…
