There are two main ways a series can introduce a “twist” and make it land within the confines of the show’s universe. First, the writers can throw breadcrumbs out along the way to the reveal, things that viewers can go back and discover later once the twist has been revealed (even though this grounding device […]
RIP Edwin, we hardly knew you. But boy, are things about to take a turn out in the wilderness. And in the present, well, things aren’t looking so hot for Van at the moment (what are the odds that Other Tai honors that DNR Van signed back in the beginning of the season – yeah, […]
Well, I, for one, think that episode should have been titled “What the fuck?!?”, because, much like the mystery bespeckled man at the end of the episode, I screamed that at the screen upon seeing that there were real live people coming upon the camp. Who are they? Where did they come from? Why are […]
In the pantheon of episode endings, this one was a doozie. From Teen Shauna finally stepping into the role of, well, leader, to threaten the other Yellowjackets into voting to convict Coach Ben to the revelation that Adult Lottie is dead, that’s a pretty visceral one-two punch to close out the episode.

Well, that was a hell of an episode, right? This is the first installment that really feels like the story is taking a step forward – in both the past and present – with our characters starting to move beyond their set patterns of the past seasons and step into the future. And it’s always […]

Once again, our central […]

Because boy, was this an episode that teased that particular future moment in spades. From the game […]
I was mixed on season two of Showtime’s Yellowjackets, which was hit or miss in its sophomore season after a strong debut. In my season two post mortem, I had a couple of hopes for the series’ third season – namely that the “modern” half of the series would tighten things up from a narrative […]
IF is a family film that shows a young girl navigating the hidden world of Imaginary Friends in New York City. Bea (Cailey Fleming) is a 12-year-old girl who moves into her grandmother’s (Fiona Shaw) apartment as her father (John Krasinski) is taken into hospital.

Over the past decade, the entertainment industry has seen drastic changes. There has been the rise of streaming services, a focus on big-budget films based on recognisable intellectual property, and an increase in digital media sales at the cost of physical media. In 2023, the Hollywood business model suffered from the detrimental effects of short-term […]
