Scarlet Witch and Loki TV Shows
It has been announced that Loki and Scarlet Witch, joined by a few other characters, will be getting their own shows on Disney's new streaming service. I think it'll be interesting to see the direction they take the characters. There has always been a desire amongst fans for more Loki content and Wanda is a really interesting character in the comics. It'll definitely be a big hit for the new streaming service. If they keep it up, many people will see it as more than just a Netflix rip-off.

In our current day, anime is growing as one of the most widely loved forms of animation. There are so many different avenues and ways to watch anime and read manga.

I always try and go into films as cold as possible these days, as I get the most enjoyment out of seeing films in their entirety instead in snippets from trailers.

'Sesame Street' Roomies Ernie and Bert Inspired By LGBTQ+ Relationship?
It's an argument that has been hashed over for decades: Are #Ernie and #Bert gay? I'm really not sure why such an argument would even exist, to be honest, but thanks to Emmy-winning writer and playwright Mark Saltzman, who wrote for Sesame Street from 1985 to 1998, we might have a partial answer. Saltzman says like most writers, he writes about what he knows, and as far as Sesame Street was concerned, it was his own relationship with late film editor Arnold Glassman that inspired the dynamic between #ErnieandBert.

Bad Theatre Etiquette
Since a young age I've been fascinated with the theatre. The idea that you can be transported, emotionally, to another world without even leaving your seat enthralls me. And I find it so hard then, once I'm encapsulated, to think about anything other than this masterpiece in front of me.

Anime Archetypes: The Companions of the Hero
Companions develop a bond with the main character and ultimately encourage and receive a transformation of characteristics and skills. They are meant to inspire or inform the main character as they experience growth on their journey, but sometimes they’re not expected to go through their own character development. The common misconception with Companions is that they’re meant to live in the shadow of the main character, but this only leads them to be seen as unnecessary and repel the audience. It’s time to put a stop to neglecting the companions. Through a breakdown of the Companion’s role and attributes, I will discuss the companion’s importance and how they can become more memorable to the audience. Afterwards, a series of “What if…” prompts will be suggested to hopefully encourage you to create a companion that stands out.
