The Penguin Review - Gotham City Thrives Outside Of The Batman

When it was first announced that Colin Farrell would reprise his role as Oswald Cobblepot from 2022's The Batman in a streaming series, it was a scary proposition. After all, we've seen what happens when a popular superhero movie franchise continues its story on TV. We all saw how Marvel's Agents of SHIELD was not in any way a proper extension of the MCU. And don't even get us started about Inhumans.

Mondo's New TMNT Figures Will Make You Feel Like A Kid--And That's By Design

When Mondo announced its new line of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles figures, made from soft vinyl, the collection certainly stood out from what other collectible companies are offering up from the franchise. In a market flooded with highly articulated "ultimate"-style figures based on everything from the original comic book to the cult-favorite Coming Out of Their Shells concert tour, Mondo's bigger, chunkier reimaginings of the original action-figure line were certainly a unique take.

Super7's Ninja Turtles Pizza Party Wagon Is An S-Tier Comic-Con Exclusive

Every year, in the aftermath of San Diego Comic-Con, those who were lucky enough to attend (or snag the item of their choice online) marvel at the exclusive toys, apparel, statues, models, and just about everything else that's released specifically for the convention. The exclusives are aimed at different fandoms and this year, if you ask us, Super7 won SDCC with their lineup of Ninja Turtles figures, themed to a pizzeria conceived by the party dude himself, Michelangelo.

Stern's Venom Pinball Machine Is The Next Evolution Of Pinball

Pinball has a history that stretches back to France in the 1600s. Over the centuries, the game has certainly evolved, but at the end of the day, the mechanics and gameplay remain largely the same. You hit metal balls around the playfield, bouncing them off of scoring pins and launching them through chutes, in an attempt to reign supreme with the high score. However, leading pinball machine maker Stern is looking to take the game to a new level with its latest title, Marvel's Venom.

Mission Impossible's Pom Klementieff Was Thrilled To Trade In Her MCU Character For A Dark Villain

If you keep up with the Marvel Cinematic Universe, you surely know all about Pom Klementieff's portrayal of Mantis in the Guardians of the Galaxy films. The alien is silly, has a huge heart, and loves her friends above all else, even if she wants to beat up Drax at any given moment. Now, though, Klementieff is stepping away from the unbridled goodness of Mantis for her villainous turn in Mission: Impossible - Dead Reckoning Part 1 and couldn't be any more thrilled.

"I just enjoyed it so much… i

Tom Cruise Is Mission Impossible's Hero, But Simon Pegg Is The Glue Holding The Series Together

When you sit down in the theaters to watch Mission Impossible: Dead Reckoning - Part 1, you know what you're getting, more or less. There will be some kind of impossible mission that requires Tom Cruise to jump off of something, crash something, or otherwise put his own life--and the lives of anyone around him--in immeasurable amounts of danger so he and his team can save the world. Oftentimes, one of those put in danger is none other than his sidekick Benji (Simon Pegg). Benji's more than a sid

Marvel's Secret Invasion Review - The MCU Tries Its Own Andor With Mixed Results

The latest entry in the long-running Marvel Cinematic Universe is quite a departure from the superhero fare you're used to. It's hard to narrow down a Marvel project to just one thing, but chances are it involves superheroes, mind-bending special powers, and a massive roster of returning characters that may or may not mean something in the long run. Secret Invasion isn't that and, truthfully, that's somewhat refreshing.

Disney Cruises Are For More Than Just Kids (And Aren't Child-Filled Hellscapes)

Whether you've been on a cruise or not, chances are you've heard of the Disney Cruise Line. What if Disney World was a boat en route to the Bahamas, complete with all of that "Disney magic" you've come to expect from the company's vacation destinations. That said, if you're like me, you figured these were designed to entertain families (read: children) and didn't think it would amount to much of a vacation for those without kids.

Netflix's Resident Evil Review - Easily The Best Adaptation Of The Zombie Franchise Yet

Outside of Sonic the Hedgehog and his plethora of animated shows, has any video game franchise been adapted into TV and movies more than Resident Evil? It's hard to think of one, what with seven different live-action movies and a handful of animated shows and films. Yet still, our fascination with the world of the games and the horrific Umbrella Corporation responsible for its terrors never sours.

Lightyear Review - Pixar Goes To Infinity And Beyond In Its Theatrical Return

Since Lightyear was announced, there's been one question on everyone's minds. "Wait, how does this work? I'm confused." In fact, it's confusing enough that Lightyear explains what's going on in the opening seconds of the film. "In 1995, Andy got a toy from his favorite movie. This is that movie." Lightyear is, essentially, the origin story of Buzz Lightyear. Put simply, it's Andy's Star Wars.

Tom Cruise's Top Gun: Maverick Bootcamp Was Even Scarier Than It Sounds

When you head to the theater to see Top Gun: Maverick this weekend, it should be pretty clear that most of what you're seeing was done practically, rather than with digital effects. The cast was really flying in those jets, going through some pretty intense maneuvers--and they had to train for it.

Chances are by now, you've heard about the boot camp, of sorts, that star Tom Cruise put together for his castmates. Well, according to the cast of the second Top Gun film, it was an even more intense
