Video game adaptations can take a number of interesting forms. Now that Castlevania and The Witcher have blazed a trail for both animation and live-action, anything is possible. That’s one of the reasons The Cuphead Show exists on Netflix, as an adaptation of the popular and critically acclaimed Cuphead: Don’t Deal with the Devil run-and-gun video game. The show has received mixed reviews so far, with fans of the game taking a critical note of the missing original soundtrack and the generic animation, as opposed to the original jazz score and a hand-painted drawing style that made the game such a hit....
The fact that there will be a new episode of an MCU streaming series arriving on Disney Plus pretty much every week this year more than makes up for a Marvel-less 2020. After The Falcon and the Winter Soldier, Loki, What If…?, and Ms. Marvel, fans will be treated to a Hawkeye series starring Jeremy Renner as Clint Barton and Hailee Steinfeld as his successor, Kate Bishop. While the series should mostly focus on introducing Kate’s origin story and showcasing Steinfeld’s take on the character, it has an interesting opportunity to contrast the beginning of Kate’s story with the end of Clint’s....

Early on in the run of The Flash, there was reason to believe the show meant to do right by Iris West....

If there’s one thing the MCU has been lacking, it’s proper representation of LGBTQ characters. Some fans have actually accused Marvel of “straight washing” their characters for the purpose of denying them the opportunity to be in relationships with someone who they have an actual connection with. The problem Marvel has with creating straight relationships is that they can feel strange, a bit forced, and there isn’t too much emotional depth backing them up....

An early Sonic Frontiers comparison has been shared online, highlighting how the Cyberspace stages may have a similar design to stages from previous entries in the series. The comparison, which has been put together by @mikesterp1, highlights how the Green Hill Zone Cyberspace stage in the latest entry in the series has a very similar level design as Sonic Unleashed’s Windmill Isle day stage. While a similar level design could make sense storywise, as Cyberspace stages are essentially Sonic’s memories, this could be a little worrying if all Cyberspace stages will be like this....
