Hello Kitty Is A Copyright Ambassador Now

The latest from Japan is that Hello Kitty is now the official Copyright PR Ambassador for the country’s Agency for Cultural Affairs. Hello Kitty has been the ultimate epitome of kawaii since the 1970s, and has crept her way onto just about every backpack, keychain, and pencil case on the planet since then (along with everything from musical instruments, to wine, to airplanes). She’s also been the inspiration for TV series, films, music, and no fewer than 18 video games in that time, too....

Hereditary Ending Explained

This article contains massive Hereditary spoilers. So once again, it’s fair to say that if someone tells you to read words in an unknown language while performing a ritualistic séance, you always say nope. Or at least that is one of the many things to take away from Ari Aster’s relentlessly creepy Hereditary, a hellish marriage of The Exorcist, Rosemary’s Baby, and just genuinely bizarre weirdness. The new film includes an ending that is pretty straightforward considering that Ann Dowd’s Joanie is on hand to explain to the possessed body of Peter that he is now the newly reborn “King Paimon,” but you might be going… who the hell is King Paimon and how did we get there?...

Hideo Kojima Makes Up New Genre To Describe Death Stranding

Death Stranding is a game where Norman Reedus walks around a post-apocalyptic world filled with ghosts, tied to a jar with a baby inside it. It’s a weird game. It’s so weird and hard to describe, in fact, that Death Stranding director Hideo Kojima has literally created a new genre for it. In a post on Twitter, Kojima explained that Death Stranding, unlike his Metal Gear series, is not a stealth game....

How Batman Soul Of The Dragon Pays Homage To 70S Kung Fu And Bruce Lee

Batman: Soul of the Dragon sets Gotham’s caped crusader in a vintage martial arts homage. Directed by Sam Liu, who also directed the animated movie version of one of the greatest Batman graphic novels ever published, Batman: The Killing Joke, this is the 42nd project in the ongoing DC Universe Movies series. However, Soul of the Dragon is an original tale, not based on a precedent comic. Like the eye popping anime-style film Batman Ninja, this is a completely stand-alone story....

How Black Widow Could Build The Mcu S Future

This Black Widow article contains spoilers for Avengers: Endgame. The Marvel Cinematic Universe doesn’t do standalone movies—not really. Even the most isolated of MCU narratives have connections to the rest of the fictional universe, and work to set up upcoming stories. Normally, this process may be surprising in precisely how it is executed, but straight-forward in that it is setting up the next story or stories in the MCU. The Black Widow movie, slated for a July release, challenges that obvious structure....

How The Midwich Cuckoos Explores The Politics Of Parenthood

In John Wyndham’s The Midwich Cuckoos a remote village is inexplicably plunged into darkness and all the residents rendered unconscious.

Talk about village of the damned (or rather perhaps don’t – creator David Farr likes the first half of the 1960 film version but not the second half and can’t stand the John Carpenter 1995 update)....
