We’re halfway through the 2020s. It’s been a tumultuous decade to say the least, but it’s also been filled with massive blockbusters and cultural touchstones. However, some amazing films slip through the cracks and don’t get anywhere near the attention they deserve. So, if you’re done with the big hitters like Top Gun: Maverick, Barbie, and whatever the latest addition to the MCU is, take some time to watch these overlooked and underloved films from the 2020s. The Last Duel (2021) Watch The Last Duel on Fubo It’s wild to think of any film from Ridley Scott as being underrated,…

Science fiction is one of those genres that you can explore in so many different ways as a storyteller. From sci-fi movies that will make you question your very reality, to futuristic space operas grounded in reality and character drama, there’s enough to never get bored. It’s probably why I spend more time than I should searching out great sci-fi films that no one talks about, because I’m always looking for that next great piece of media. While it’s fun to explore science fiction from the past, I also like to keep my ear to the ground for upcoming films…
Some electric cars are about as exciting as washing machines. The Porsche Cayenne Electric is not one of those cars. Having recently attended a technology workshop at the company’s Leipzig Experience Centre, I’m still getting my head around the experience: not only is the upcoming SUV exceedingly rapid, it has a lot more going on than pure speed. During my day I got a deep dive into what makes this SUV so great, and there’s lots of good stuff to report. Off-road capability While it could be said that most posh SUVs don’t generally go anywhere near soft stuff, the…
When you think of kids’ cartoons, you probably think of something simplistic and, overall, kid-friendly. For the most part, that’s probably true, especially on that latter point. Kind of defeats the purpose of being targeted at children if they can’t actually enjoy it. But like an excellent Pixar film, cartoon shows do not have to be simplistic or something that adults can’t enjoy too. Personally, I still watch a lot of the cartoon shows from my youth, because of nostalgia and my belief that they just do not make them like they used to. Yet even the best of the…
The Long Walk is easily one of my favorite underappreciated Stephen King novels, so the film adaptation was one of my most anticipated films of 2025. It did not disappoint at all, and it really captured the harrowing atmosphere of the book. This says a lot, because it’s difficult for dystopian fiction to truly stand out in modern times, but The Long Walk manages to be both standout fiction and relevant, especially for an adaptation of a novel that was published in 1979. Watching The Long Walk sent me down a dystopian survival rabbit hole, too, and the genre is…
I admit that I’m something of a Roku newbie, at least when it comes to actually utilizing my smart TV properly. But lately, I’ve been craving applications and oddball streaming channels that offer way more than I would have expected. Normally, I use an Xbox Series X for all my streaming, and it can feel a bit limiting at times, especially in terms of the apps that are actually available. So, I have been using my Roku television a lot more lately. Like any piece of technology that I end up using, I just had to do my research. And…
I live in a village where the roads look like they’ve been borrowed from a war film – cracked, pitted, patched, and peppered with potholes that could swallow a front wheel whole. In short, it’s not the kind of place you’d expect to get along with an electric scooter… And yet, I’ve been stubbornly doing exactly that since 2021 with my trusty Pure Air Pro LR. It’s a great scooter – solid, dependable, with 10in wheels and a chunky frame that shrugs off small imperfections. But when you’re constantly dodging craters left behind by Bucks County Council, the fun wears…
