Every day I wake up and there’s a new Ryan Gosling quote to fawn over where he’s saying something silly about starring as Ken in the upcoming Barbie movie. I’ve been a Gosling fan since I saw his powerful performance in Blue Valentine, but even as he moved into bigger-budget films, I’ve been impressed with the amount of himself he puts into every performance.Whether it’s a rom-com like The Notebook or Crazy, Stupid, Love, a comedy like The Nice Guys, or a drama like Blade Runner 2049 or Drive, it’s evident that he’s all in no matter the role....

Sonic Prime, theNetflixshow that has just entered its second season, hasgiven us a new take on Metal Sonic.

However, you shouldn’t judge a robot by his cover it seems, because now, fans can’t get enough of the guy....

Insomniac’s first twoSpider-Mantitles were chock full of suits, but two games aren’t enough to unpack Spider-Man’s extensive 60-year history, so there is plenty left for Insomniac to use.

Have you guys played that hot new game,Star Wars Jedi: Survivor? I have, and it’s pretty swell if I do say so myself. Yes, I know it came out several months ago and has since been eclipsed by bigger games likeTears of the KingdomandStreet Fighter 6, but with my hands being so full back then I’ve only just jumped back into the shoes of Cal Kestis. Now he’s got a mullet, anger issues, and ablaster stance I definitely won’t spend the whole game with....

The Lord of the Rings may be one of the most influential fantasy series of all time, but the trilogy itself, particularly the film adaptation, only represents the tip of the iceberg when it comes to Tolkien’s creative vision.
