The minute we got back from E3 last week, waiting for us on our doorstep was a brand new subscription box from Loot Gaming.

The last time we reviewed a Geek Fuel box, we were told they were changing up their model and were going to be bringing us something more worth our money Just before we jetted off to E3, we got a little surprise in the mail Well, not so little Geek Fuel sent us their brand[...]

It could of course be that after the original two sequels (which were both horrible) and the continuation three years ago with Jurassic World (which was okay, though shockingly dull with generally terrible writing for the characters) the bar was so low that almost anything would have felt like a step up, but Jurassic World:[...]

[rwp-review-recap id="0"] Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom has a few bright spots, but they are either few and far between or were spoiled in the marketing. Director: J.A Bayona Summary:When the island's dormant volcano begins roaring to life, Owen and Claire mount a campaign to rescue the remaining dinosaurs from this extinction-level event.

Credit: AMC After seven episodes and eight weeks, Bleeding Cool's weekly review of AMC's Fear the Walking Dead season 4 has finally reached the summer break with mid-season finale 'No One's Gone.' Without giving too much away, let me just say this: it wasn't bad…it wasn't great…but it's time for the series to start moving forward and stop looking back. Credit:[...]

truck's worth of machine guns turned on them… We even get our first look at the Stadium post-Vultures attack and…it's exactly the smoldering disaster we were expecting. And yet one question still remains unanswered heading into Sunday night's mid-season finale: What happened to Madison? https://youtu.be/Qt1VcQHbfeAVideo can't be loaded because JavaScript is disabled: Fear the Walking Dead Season 4,[...]

[rwp-review-recap id="0"] Hotel Artemis sets the stage with a great setup and cast but fails to capitalize on it by taking way too long to get going with an odd tone and dull action.

[rwp-review-recap id="0"] Ocean's 8 has perfectly captured what made the George Clooney era of movies so good with a fantastic cast, a great sense of style, and a twist that will leave you grinning.

Credit: AMC After a two-week hiatus, Bleeding Cool's weekly review/recap of AMC's Fear the Walking Dead season 4 is back with a look at the penultimate episode before the mid-season break: 'The Wrong Side of Where You Are Now.'

The season finale rocked. That’s probably the best way for me to phrase it. I’ve been pleased and disappointed throughout the entire fourth season of the CW's iZombie - but mostly disappointed. The season finale turned out to be the epitome of perfection and embodied everything I've loved about series.

Open up my eager eyes, cause I'm…  The Weekly Static! With righteous amounts of love and respect to The Killers; now as I back out of the room slowly and awkwardly – Peter Griffin-style – check out this week's… https://youtu.be/k7P6Fk5PdzIVideo can't be loaded because JavaScript is disabled: 1987 NBC Saturday morning preview special (https://youtu.be/k7P6Fk5PdzI) This week, The Weekly Static – Bleeding Cool's look[...]

[rwp-review-recap id="0"] Adrift is a passable survival story, but the framing device and non-linear story structure kills the momentum the longer the movie goes on. Director: Baltasar Kormákur Summary: Based on the true story of survival, a young couple's chance encounter leads them first to love, and then on the adventure of a lifetime as they face one[...]

Turns out, we were wrong! Last week the company released a brand-new set of some old favorites with The Singles Collection, which they were kind enough to send us for review. credit//Shout! Factory For the uninitiated, over the years at both Rhino and Shout!, there have been smaller collections or one-off releases of particular episodes from MST3K[...]

But when I opened up the pages and gave this one a whirl, I immediately saw why they did it and the benefit as we review the latest book. credit//Wizards Of The Coast To give you some context of what it is you're getting in this book, it has six chapters that add a plethora of new[...]

This week, we get more of Naomi's (Jenna Elfman) backstory at the Stadium before all roads[...]

Once again, another episode with way too many plots running around. Don’t think that I didn't enjoy the episode: between Liv getting kidnapped and Ravi finding the cure, I appreciated the creativity and story direction. But once again, the episode failed to answer serious questions from previous episodes.

Just when we thought the weekend wasn't going to bring anything spectacular to our door, we got a knock from the mailman who dropped off the latest Loot Tees package from Loot Crate for us to check out.

Meanwhile, Dale must answer for the escalating crime in Bristol Cove. ● This page is set to update – but just to be on the safe side…I suggest you refresh every now and then to make sure everything's current (because I've been known to ramble often and quickly). ● If you're going on Twitter, Instagram, etc., to talk[...]

When Lucasfilm and Disney[...]

This week's episode of the CW's iZombie was nothing less than a tear jerker. I wish I would have gotten the memo and had time to pick up a box of tissues...but that’s okay: being cleverly adaptable, I used a roll of toilet paper instead. [SPOILERS]

But before the mayhem, we get John Dorie's (Garret Dillahunt) touching, heartbreaking backstory with Naomi/"Laura" (Jenna Elfman)- and quite possibly the best couple in the Walking Dead universe (okay…maybe second to Rick/Michonne). So reacquaint yourselves with our review of Fear the Walking Dead's  'Laura' and let us know what you think: https://youtu.be/gO3zHbsdKksVideo can't be loaded because JavaScript[...]
