Warner Bros. vs. Amazon – The Battle for Lord of the Rings
Despite the best efforts of both Warner Bros. and Amazon, the Tolkien fanbase is still strong, the books fueling a passion unrivaled by any other franchise. While the fans of the books and the world have been consistently strong, the quality of the live-action interpretations of this literary universe have been subpar, to say the…
REVIEW: The Last of Us – Season 1, Episode 7, “Left Behind”
There isn’t much unique commentary surrounding the latest episode of HBO’s The Last of Us, “Left Behind.” It still falls into the most egregious pitfalls of its predecessor, namely bloat, empty character development and performances, and a near-total lack of action, horror, or zombies.

The Witcher 3 Next-Gen “Accidentally” Added Realistic Monster Vaginas
**NSFW** While CD Projekt Red has delivered several incredibly well-written video games, they are not known as bastions of smooth launches or the creators of well-tested video games. Glitches and bugs are prevalent through nearly every major CD Projekt Red release until patches resolve the numerous issues. The same applies to The Witcher 3: The Wild Hunt’s next-gen…
