By chance, out of sheer boredom, I stumbled upon one of the games I had snagged for free on PS Plus and decided to give it a try. My friend and I happened to be looking for a multiplayer game we could play together from the couch. You know, like in the good old days. That game, of course, was Broforce, and it was the beginning of a true romance 😉 Continue reading
Mad Max: Fury Road was fantastic! George Miller hit the mark and now attempts to replicate that success with Furiosa, a prequel focused on one of the main characters from Fury Road. In Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga, we see what Furiosa’s (Anya Taylor-Joy) life was like leading up to the events of Fury Road. Brilliant! Continue reading
M. Night Shyamalan comes up with a wild idea every now and then and turns it into a feature film. After the fairly entertaining Old and classics like Unbreakable and The Sixth Sense, it’s now Trap’s turn. A film in which a kidnapper/murderer is trapped “in disguise” during a pop concert, all under the watchful eye of his daughter. What could possibly go wrong? Continue reading

It immediately reminds me of my childhood, where Chip ‘n Dale were two of the most beloved Disney characters. I even had a pair of female twin friends during my youth, who resembled the duo a lot because of their looks and squeaky voices. Anyway, enough memories to catch up on during the runtime of the movie. However, I was in for a big surprise. Continue reading
The Toy Story franchise has always been close to my heart. The first movie really showed of that characters made out of 3D-models could actually tell a story and show emotions. That first movie was a landmark in film which will be talked about for more than hundred years from now. In the meantime the series contains four entries and now is a great time to discuss which one is the best and which one is not that good. Continue reading
When it comes to directors, there are a few I personally view as the best of the bunch. Tarantino, Nolan and off course Spielberg are my personal favourite and the latter one started its career with the movie I’ll discuss in this article. Duel is a nice psychological thriller about a driver who is haunted by a mysterious truck driver. Continue reading
With the Coronavirus outbreak happening at this moment, a little part in us is curious about potential ‘what if’-situations. This is proven by the recent popularity of Contagion (2011) in the Apple iTunes movie store. Let’s have a look at some other examples of popular media like movies, video games and even board games which use a virus outbreak as their main theme.
