Anime
In this article, I discuss what anime is and suggest different anime for you to check out. Who's it for? Most people think anime is just for kids, like Pokémon and Yu-Gi-Oh (which even those don’t have to be for just for kids), but they can be for older people also. There is anime for teens, like Death Note and Sword Art Online,that has a more mature story and theme. Plus, it has more genres like physiological, thriller, ecchi, and horror. There’s also anime for older teens and adults like Berserk, Highschool DXD, and Tokyo Ghoul. These have adult themes and some have a lot more fan serves and bloody action.

A Meaningful Glance — 5 Short Moments in Movies When So Little Told Us So Much
In movies, a single look can say more than a thousand words... or than a tedious amount of plot exposition. Therefore, trying to explain everything, that is going on, in form of lenghty dialogues, monologues, narrations or even flashbacks might not always be the best way to approach a story. It can seriously bog the pacing of the movie down and make the audience feel that they are being treated like idiots. Often, a single glance is all that is needed to tell us something important about the story and the characters.

Is There Such a Thing as Too Much Creative Control for a Filmmaker?
Though some would argue otherwise, movies are a form of art. And what else is art than expression of one's vision brought to reality to offer enjoyment? Therefore, it's important that the vision is brought to reality uninterrupted, pure and raw. In the case of movies, the way the filmmaker imagines a movie, is the way it should be brought to reality.

Who Should You Fight? Disney's "Gargoyles" Edition!
It's just human nature. We have the deeply ingrained desire to place ourselves next to our favorite characters in their stories, imagine the conversations we'd have, the adventures we'd go on... and sometimes, if we'd win in a fight. We like to think we could go head-to-head with our favorite (or maybe most hated?) heroes and villains, and fandom has been exploring these possibilities since the dawn of... the internet, anyway. (But go back millennia. You know there was some guy who was like "I could totally take Hercules in a fight!" and wrote an epic poem or two. We never really change.)

Movie Stars Doing Their Own Stunts: Requirement or a Nice Bonus?
When watching a movie, we want to be as immersed in it as possible. That requires us to believe what we see on the screen. If one does not believe the action seen on screen, the viewer will not be fully immersed in a movie. Action must feel authentic. That, in turn, requires the stunts to be believable. And what can be more convincing than the actor or actress doing them personally.

5 Brilliant Comedy TV Shows You Might Have Not Seen
It's all subjective of course, but usually the best comedy is one that goes out of the norm a bit and doesn't make compromises. Therefore, popularity and quality of comedy don't always go hand in hand. As is the case with the following 5 examples. Bare in mind that all of these shows have met a certain level of popularity and definitely have a fanbase, but most are just a tiny bit out of the mainstream or, perhaps, slightly forgotten. Let's take a look!
