    The ‘Waifu’ Epidemic | When it stops being a joke

    If you know people who have watched anime, you’ve most probably heard the phrase “2D>3D”. With no context that phrase might leave you slightly baffled.

    Why You Shouldn’t Spoil It | Avengers: Endgame

    Endgame was the conclusion of an era and the fact that it didn’t have a post-credits scene shows that. This doesn’t mean that the MCU is finished but that it’s the beginning of a new chapter. The future MCU movies will see a shift, showing the impact of Endgame and how it affected the lives…

    What’s With the Prejudice Against Anime?

    There are some interesting divisions in pop-culture. There are those who live following the Kardashians, others who can describe the Avengers as well as their closest friends, etc. The oddity is when the different tribes of pop-culture start to turn on each other but the sub-group which seems to get the most judgement from a large…

    As the colder months at the beginning of the year come to a close we go from playing on the PC all night in a hoodie to playing all night in a t-shirt. Before anyone judges the prioritisation of fun over sleep, there is good reason to do so in 2019. This March we saw…

There are seventeen Disney live-action remakes in development with big hitters lined up such as Mulan (March 27, 2020).
