Badass 80s Movie Villains
The 80s were something of a golden time of cinematic history. Where the 70s played host to some of cinema’s most warped creations, the 80s brought on a sense of joviality, fun filled excitement and a genuine thirst for adventure and progress. The 80s saw the maturity of filmmakers like Steven Spielberg and saw the continued releases of Kubrick classics. However, the 80s were known for one more thing. The badass action movie. Die Hard started it all, but since then we’ve had a rich collection of glorious action movies to comb through since, and we all know that you can’t have a good action movie unless you have a great villain.

Greatest Video Game Soundtracks
Video game soundtracks are perhaps the most underrated part of any video game. Usually, critical criteria will venture far more towards the gameplay or presentation, but rarely an in depth dissection of the soundtrack. Soundtracks not only are key to creating a mood in video games, but they are usually excellent pieces of music in their own right. This is a flaw we seek to reprimand with our list of greatest video game soundtracks.

Best 90s Kids Shows
Besides the 90s producing a generation of entitled, extremely tech savvy (obsessed) and lazy individuals (Hey! I'm kidding! I'm a millennial!) that decade is also responsible for producing some of the best kids shows; an accomplishment the 90s is a little more proud of. Now that the kids of this era are growing up and having children of their own, they want the same quality television shows that today’s programming doesn’t offer. By offering today's kids the opportunity to watch reruns of Nickelodeon TV shows such as Hey Arnold!, Are You Afraid of The Dark?, Clarissa Explains It All, and many others, we are bringing back the same morals and values from our childhood, many of which are still relevant today. So 90s kids rejoice and maybe rewatch these 90s kids shows, with or without a family of your own.

Most Expensive Lego Sets
Remember when you were a kid and your parents always told you that Lego was far too expensive. Of course, you didn’t believe them, and more to the point, you didn’t really care. But when you grew up you realized that Lego is quite frankly, incredibly and extortionately expensive. Well, I’m about to burst your bubble yet again with the most expensive Lego sets. Lego for the past 15 years has set an average increase in value by 12% for the year after release. It also comes to no surprise though that Star Wars has made our list more than once, considering it is one of the most valuable franchises in the world.
