Yuri webcomics are common online. I noted this in the first part of this series which centered on Webtoons such as The Pirate and the Princess, My Roommate Is a Vampire, My Dragon Girlfriend, Eldritch Darling, Nevermore, Big Cats, Everyday by Day, My Secret Lesbian Comics, Apollonia, and The World’s Strongest Guild Receptionist. This post will focus on […]
Avatar: Fire and Ash Review
The financial juggernaut that is the Avatar series film returns for a third film and continues the conflict between the Na’vi and RDA, and Jake Sully and Quaritch. The Scully family are reunited after the events of Avatar: The Way of Water, but is suffering from grief after the death of their oldest son. The […]
In Defence of Avatar
Avatar is the highest-grossing film of all, with a worldwide gross of $2.9 billion. It was a cultural phenomenon back in 2009/2010. Yet it is a film that had many detractors and was dismissed as a “Dancing with Smurfs” and “Ferngully in Space.” Whilst I have been critical of Avatar: The Way of Water, the […]
Pluribus – Charm Offensive Review
Oh Carol. I don’t think that attempt at appeasement ended up the way you thought it would. Although, I’m also not completely convinced that there isn’t some aspect of the original Zosia still lingering under that hive mind, slowly seeping out through the cracks. And then there’s Manuosos, who’s inching ever closer to Albuquerque, expecting […]
Silent Night, Deadly Night (2025) Review
Silent Night, Deadly Night is seen as a Christmas horror classic and spawned a series of five films and a reboot. Cineverse, the company behind Terrifier 3 and The Toxic Avenger reboot, have taken on the task of rebooting the series for a second time. Billy Chapman (Rohan Campbell) is a drifter who goes from […]

I’ve also talked about webcomics by trans creators (Up and Out, Trans Girl Next Door, Assigned Male/Serious Trans Vibes, I want to be a cute anime girl, and Transincidental). This posting will cover webcomics exclusively on Webtoon. Some fall into the young […]
Top Ten TV Shows of 2025
For the first time since I began creating annual top ten lists – over a decade ago, now – I actually had to struggle to find shows to select. It’s not that there wasn’t a lot of good TV this year – there was, as you’ll see from reading through my various reviews over the […]
Ella McCay Review
Octogenarian James L. Brooks returns to filmmaking for the first time in 15 years. This time, the director of Terms of Endearment, Broadcast News and As Good as It Gets makes an ensemble comedy-drama set during the 2008 recession. Ella McCay (Emma Mackey) is the 34-year-old lieutenant governor who succeeds her boss, Bill Moore (Albert […]
Burkely’s Top Ten Indie Animated Pilots of 2025
In early February of last year, Olan Rogers, best known as creator of Final Space (sadly shafted by WarnerDiscovery), responded to a fan, writing “…it’s the worst it’s ever been. Indie is the way to go.” His words gave me the idea to highlight some recent indie animated series and pilots since my last post in […]
Pluribus – The Gap Review
Well. That was quite the episode. And, for my money (having not seen the last two episodes of the season just yet) the best one so far in Pluribus’s freshman season. After watching Carol actively push everyone and everything away – both in her quest to discover a means to put the world back the […]
