From the moment Bob Hoskins and John Leguizamo slid into their matching overalls and unleashed Super Mario Bros. on to the world back in 1993, video game fans have wondered: can video game adaptations ever be... good? For years, it seemed as if the answer was a resounding no. While some films were decent, the vast majority left a lot to be desired--such as good dialogue and storylines that, you know, made sense. Recently, however, everything has changed.

In the past few years, Netflix has...

High On Life Physical Edition And Official Graphic Novel Preorders Are Live At Amazon

One of the strangest games of 2022, High on Life, will receive a physical release for the first time on September 19. This physical edition of a shooter starring obnoxious talking guns extends its humorous creative liberties to its cover art. Along with a half-peeled alien "sticker," the phrase "Game of the Year" is hastily scrawled on a faux duct-taped label. From a player interest perspective, High on Life essentially was the GOTY on Xbox Game Pass. At the end of 2022, Microsoft confirmed...

Proximus Caesar Reigns In Kingdom Of The Planet Of The Apes Clip

While Andy Serkis' Caesar was last seen in 2018's War for the Planet of the Apes, he's been gone a much longer time in the upcoming sequel, Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes. Nearly 300 years have passed since Caesar's death, and apes are now the dominant species on Earth. However, Caesar would probably be horrified by his self-proclaimed successor, Proximus Caesar (Kevin Durand). Especially since Proximus twists and perverts the meaning of Caesar's teachings while enslaving apes and humans...
