The Predator and Alien franchises have always been linked. They’re both about human beings fighting fearsome extraterrestrials. Both had their heydays in the ’80s and ’90s before going on long hiatuses. And of course there were the Alien vs. Predator movies, which kept people talking about them during fallow periods, for better or worse. Both franchises have mounted comebacks in recent years. But while the Predator franchise may be having the hottest hot streak of its existence, Alien is floundering. What happened? Predator is expanding intelligently; Alien is just expanding One franchise has focus, while the other is fuzzy The…

The season 2 finale of Peacemaker, “Full Nelson,” just dropped on HBO Max, and the consensus is that it was…fine. Initial fan ratings on sites like IMDb are well below what they were for prior episodes, if still respectable, and I can see where those reviewers are coming from. The finale has some issues. But before we get into that, I’d like to celebrate a very successful season of TV that invigorated my interest in superhero shows, which is no small feat considering how many have worn me down over the past several years. How has Peacemaker managed to stay…
Kodi isn’t just another streaming app like Netflix or Hulu. It’s a powerful open-source media center that allows you to organize, stream, and play almost any type of content, including movies, TV shows, live channels, music, and even photos. I love that Kodi is entirely customizable and keeps everything arranged within a single, intuitive interface. Unlike the built-in apps that come preloaded or are installed on most smart TVs, Kodi doesn’t confine you to a single brand’s ecosystem. If you have your media files stored externally, whether on a hard drive, NAS, or online, it organizes all your files into…
There are a lot of bad movies out there, and most are bad in pretty predictable ways: they’re boring, uninspired, or forgettable. A movie has to be a special kind of bad to be “so bad it’s good.” Where exactly is the line? Can a movie be so bad it’s good if it’s trying to be bad, or does it have to earnestly strive for greatness and fail miserably? Let’s look at a few examples and see if we can hash it out. The Room (2003) Watch The Room on AMC+ Let’s get the obvious one out of the way.…
Lego House is the self-styled ‘home of the brick’. A brick’s throw from the buildings Lego started in, it’s a gleaming institution that dominates the centre of the company’s home town of Billund in Denmark. Although there are plenty of large Lego displays, including an alpine scene, giant dinosaurs, a huge waterfall of bricks and a multi-floor spanning tree, the majority of the 12,000 square metre house’s spaces – all built using the proportions of the original brick – are for people to create stuff in using many of the 25 million Lego bricks on site. But those people haven’t…
Amazon’s Fire TV Stick is one of the best tech purchases that I have ever made. Especially since it can turn my old dumb TV into a smart one, it has its own perks, including easy plug-and-play setup, a smooth UI, and a vast app library. All in all, the Amazon Fire TV Stick is a handy and sleek device that can enhance your everyday experience. However, there are instances when I felt that my Fire TV Stick could be improved. At first, I thought I had to live with those shortcomings, but then I tried several apps, and most…
This January, HBO will debut a new show set in the Game of Thrones universe: A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms, based on the Tales of Dunk and Egg novellas by George R.R. Martin. All signs point to it being the pick-up this beleaguered franchise needs. It’s a badly needed change of pace Lighter and brighter (but still bloody) Game of Thrones was defined by its complicated plots, sky-high stakes, and layered characters. The cast was massive; it was one of those shows you watched for the ensemble. The spinoff show House of the Dragon, which is also coming back…
