East Coast ComicCon Founder Bans 'Hercules' Actor Kevin Sorbo for Political Reasons...
In a sad attempt to garner some free press for the little-know EastCoast ComicCon, founder Cliff Galbraith banned actor Kevin Sorbo from the event because he’s friends with conservative radio host and Fox News commentator Sean Hannity. Galbraith said, "I turned down Kevin Sorbo for East Coast Comicon. He’s pals with Sean Hannity. I just can’t do it."

Movie Review: 'Den of Thieves'
It’s well established in my podcasting and writing career that I do not care for the work of actor Gerard Butler. Butler’s acting tends to be lazy and inconsistent, and the movies he chooses to make range from mediocre to abysmal. Two years ago, two of his movies ranked in my top two worst movies of 2016. I despise Butler’s work more than that of either Eli Roth's or Adam Sandler's—two other regular targets of my vitriol.

The Paradox of '13 Reasons Why'
13 Reasons Why is very good - and very bad - for many many reasons. The most important part of it is that it all depends on perspective. Those who are very aware/sensitive to mental illness in today's world will be harmed at a great extent by the series. But people with no history or education regarding modern mental health may not feel the tension behind the series.

'Beauty and the Beast:' Remake Comparison
In 1991, at the age of nine, I was taken to a Disney film by the name of Beauty in the Beast by my grandmother. This film was slightly less song-driven than a lot of Disney films from the past such as Fantasia, but kept the low-age audience's attention with a compelling storyline and a dark, climactic ending. I walked out with a feeling of bliss over the fact that our anti-hero triumphed in the end despite the fact that he was almost murdered.

'I, Tonya' (2017)
I, Tonya is a 2017 Ice-Skating dramedy biopic directed by Craig Gillespie (of Lars and the Real Girl and Fright Night 2011 fame). The film stars Margot Robbie as the titular Tonya Harding, and Sebastian Stan as her bumbling husband Jeff Gillooly. I, Tonya focuses on the early life of Mrs. Harding, leading up to and including the "incident" involving Nancy Kerrigan. With a budget of 11 million USD, I, Tonya has earned back its budget and some change so far.

Heartfelt Moments
You ever felt yourself become moved by a particular scene in a film? Perhaps the lyrics of a song tugged at your heartstrings in just the right way, so that it hurt so good! Or a character in a novel or a plot ends up speaking to you when you least expect it.

Another Riverdale Conspiracy Theory
Though he’s only appeared in one episode that we know of, so far I have reasoning to believe that Chic, Betty’s long lost older brother that her mother gave up for adoption in her Serpent days, could possibly be the Black Hood. It does seem crazy, but believe me, the dude is creepy inside and out.

Heart of Steel
Sheffield, South Yorkshire—England's own steel city—famed for its industrial heritage, its iconic music scene, and, of course, its Henderson's Relish has also had its fair share of influence in the world of film. Sheffield cinema spans a range of different themes unique to their eras. From strip teases to terrorism and telekinesis to trains, this seemingly bizarre mix of topics is held together by shared political undertones and a strong cultural identity. Here are six of Sheffield's finest:
