Coming out on top, we have the second musical performance from Jake Gyllenhaal, after the actor delivered a ballad during the monologue (which we’ll get to in a moment). Honestly, this almost felt like it should have been a 10-to-1 sketch, because it’s a little bit weird. This parody of the musical “Follies” has touches […]

Surprisingly, it’s a pair of short-lived villains who have been turned into two of the most satisfying figures in the second wave of Marvel Legends figures for “X-Men ’97.” That’s mostly because they come with the perfect accessories to make them feel complete. The action figure of X-Cutioner is somewhat restricted by the mold of […]

“The Departed” is often seen as Martin Scorsese’s consultation prize. After being ignored and overlooked by the Academy for so long, Scorsese finally took home a Best Director Oscar for his crime thriller. While I don’t think this is one of Scorsese’s best movies, it’s still one of his most enjoyable, and to categorize it as little […]

Wes Ball's Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes is handily the best of the new Planet of the Apes series. Yes, really.

Jerry Seinfeld's ridiculous Pop-Tart origin story Unfrosted isn't a great movie, but it will still probably make you laugh. Here's our review.

As a bonus, the LEGO “Dune” Ornithopter features many more characters than those who might be seen flying the vehicle.

As German U-boats wreak havoc throughout the Atlantic Ocean, preventing the United States from entering the war in earnest and all but ensuring a resounding European surrender to fascism, British Prime Minister Winston Churchill […]

Of course, it wouldn’t be a “Spider-Man: No Way Home” toy line without the webslingers, and that means all three of them. Even though a previous three-pack included the trio of different Spider-Men, this is the first time they’ve all had their own unmasked face sculpt. That means we finally get outstanding likenesses of Tobey Maguire […]

For the first 45 minutes or so of “The Scargiver,” I was ready to eat my words. Sure, the sequel inevitably lives up to the “Part Two” in its title, hitting the ground at a full sprint and picking up exactly where the previous film left off as rebel leader Kora (Sofia Boutella) and her merry […]

Wouldn’t you know it, on the day that Riley is supposed to heads off to camp, her mind (and body) is about to experience a drastic overhaul thanks to puberty. As the trailer has illustrated, when the alarm sounds, a demo crew comes in, knocks down and blows up walls, updates the headquarters console, and […]
