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 need to first address that a statement posted on Morrissey’s official Facebook page is being touted as the singer’s direct quote. A follow up post on the same page corrects this, while also calling out various outlets for not doing due diligence to source the quote. TO BE FAIR, admin, anytime a page is “official,” that usually means, unless otherwise noted, that any posts are meant to come from the person/band/organization the page represents. The original quote was posted with NO attribution to Peter Katsis (who is Morrissey’s manager), but has been updated to add the name an hour…

Marvel Studios surprised everyone this morning with a teaser release for their upcoming “Shang-Chi: And The Legend of the Ten Rings.” Destin Daniel Cretton is directing. Simu Liu stars as Shang-Chi, a hero created by Steve Englehart and Jim Starlin in 1973. There have been rumors for decades that Stan Lee attempted to get a Shang-Chi project with Brandon Lee made in the 80s. While speaking with Entertainment Weekly, Liu said: “The most exciting thing about stepping into this character was that his backstory has never been told before. We know so many different versions of Batman’s origin story, how his…
We absolutely adore Brie Larson. The Oscar winner and Marvel Studios star launched her own Youtube channel last year, and has been making use of it. An avid gamer and geek, Larson often plays various titles on her videos. Sometimes, she brings in friends, like Tessa Thompson! So, enjoy this entry when “Captain Marvel” herself taught “Thor” hero Valkyrie how to play “Fortnite!”
Dominic Purcell, who plays Heat Wave on The CW’s “DC’s Legends of Tomorrow” dropped a bombshell revelation on his Instagram.
We’ve been waiting, albeit very impatiently, for the release of Denis Villeneuve’s “Dune.” Perhaps our most anticipated film of the last decade, constant delays not withstanding- we want it as soon as possible. But, we also understand the notion of preserving the director’s vision with seeing it in a theater. Hence, why the film has been delayed this long. When the Covid-19 pandemic hit, we knew it would have a lasting impact. Not just on our daily lives, but on larger things as well. One of the industries hit hardest by shut downs was movie theaters, causing bankruptcies and permeant…
We are so DELIGHTED to report the news that Mads Mikkelsen (“Hannibal,” “Rogue One: A Star Wars Story” has reportedly joined “Indiana Jones 5.” We’re not sure who he’ll be playing yet- villain or hero- but we certainly can’t wait to find out. This is super exciting, as he will be joining Phoebe Waller-Bridge and Harrison Ford in the 5th installment of the iconic adventure franchise. Perhaps the best part of this would be Waller-Bridge’s connection to Ford’s iconic “Star Wars” hero Han Solo. Waller-Bridge played L3-37, a witty droid who was Lando Calrissian’s (Donald Glover) best “friend” in “Solo: A…
Dave Bautista really wants to do a romantic comedy with the amazing Kristen Schaal as his leading lady. Somebody make this happen already!
