There have already been seven Resident Evilmovies — six of them in a more action-oriented series starring Milla Jovovich, four of which were directed by her husband, Paul W.S. Anderson, plus an unrelated “reboot” in 2021 called Welcome to Raccoon Citythat went for more of a John Carpenter vibe and was more of an attempt…

Try as I might, I’ve had a very difficult time connecting with Marvel’s current lineup of X-Men comics. At first, that sense of disconnect could be chalked up to the sting of losing the Krakoa status quo back in 2024. The Age of Krakoa was easily the most creatively fruitful period in the X-Men franchise…

Zach Cregger’s reboot is proof that video game adaptations don’t have to choose between being good or being respectful to the source.

Video game adaptations are tough in part because they’re chasing a mirage. At first glance, a video game seems like another form of visual narrative, so translating a game to a movie should be no big deal. But that misses the nuances of each medium, and so film adaptations can echo a video game, but…

I finally got around to finishing Trails in the Sky 1st Chapter, a remake of The Legend of Heroes: Trails in the Sky FC, a few months ago.

But after 80 hours with the Trails in the Sky 2nd Chapter remake, I’m convinced there’s not a single coming-of-age story that holds up as well as Estelle Bright’s…

I’m not a religious person. I put my faith in art over god and man. Through creative collaboration, we create something bigger than ourselves, and possibly eternal. In art, we become gods, creating worlds, heroes, and stories that give others hope, agony, and ecstasy. 

Bomb the Hill combines adrenaline-fueled VR gameplay with a storyline inspired by real-life skateboarding culture to deliver a thrilling and poignant look at the early days of the sport.

It’s a strange time to be selling a new VR headset, and maybe an even stranger time to be buying one. The supply of original virtual reality games has slowed to a dribble, and just as with Valve’s last hardware launch, the Steam Frame arrives covered in bumps and scrapes from a fight with the…
