TV Review: ThunderCats – “Ramlak Rising” and “Song of the Petalars”
by Sammi Bold, Reporter
ThunderCats, Ho!
The Cats are back in action. Check out our reviews of their latest adventures:
“Ramlak Rising” picks up immediately where “Ancient Spirits of Evil” left off, with Lion-O (Will Friedle), Tygra (Matthew Mercer), and Cheetara (Emmanuelle Chriqui) mourning the death of their father and King. Lion-O’s rage at Mumm-Ra causes him to abandon the mission of finding the Book of Omens, and instead wanting to avenge his father. The group starts on their journey, but not before joining with the adorable kittens, WilyKit and WilyKat. Lion-O’s angst drives the story forward by angering his friends and brother to keep going forward despite the harsh conditions.
Movie Review: 30 Minutes or Less
Facebook? I don’t check that shit, I’m off the grid.
by Kevin Gaussoin, Editor-in-Chief
Amid scathing controversy claiming the film exploits a real world tragedy, 30 Minutes or Less attempts to make a comedy out of a plot that might otherwise be best expected in a torture-porn like that found in the Saw movie franchise. Does it succeed?
(Spoilers after the cut!)
Mmmff iff nnngt Fnnngne!

Comic News: FOUR Teaser
by Matt Sernaker, Senior Editor
Guess who’s coming for dinner?
After less than a YEAR of being “dead”, it seems that the Human Torch is returning to the Fantastic Four. While no one will truly be surprised by this (since we never saw a body), it just feels rushed. The current development and story arc for the former Fantastic Four (now FF) has been fun and exciting, but bringing Johnny back so soon doesn’t allow for much creativity to flourish.
Blu-ray Review: Stake Land
by Karl Madsen, Media Editor, Horror
Every once in a while you get a movie where the main antagonist isn’t the most dangerous. That’s the case with Stake Land, a vampire movie where the bloodsuckers are the obvious bad guys, but are by no means the most dangerous.
In Stake Land there has been an outbreak of vampirism, and humanity has been splintered into lone travelers and small communities. The communities operate on a barter system and rely on the travelers to bring in food, medicines, tools, and luxury items. And everyone waits for confirmation of the safe zone in the north, New Eden.
