I like Star Wars, but I also like Star Trek, and of course Harry Potter, and Marvel, and also DC Comics, and Lord of the Rings , and Game of Thrones, and Doctor Who, and Dungeons and Dragons, and obviously The Witcher, but also Pokémon, and Zelda, and Super Mario, but also Dragon Ball, and Naruto, and Stranger Things, and I like The Mandalorian, and Battlestar Galactica, and let's not forget Firefly, and Halo. I also enjoy Buffy the Vampire Slayer, and Avatar: The Last Airbender, and The Matrix…

Nerdiness is a hell of a drug . Once you try one science fiction movie and like it, it's impossible to stop. One of your friends suggests you give Star Wars a try, and a week later, you are binge-watching Battlestar Galactica and buying Star Trek Funko Pops. You read one chapter of Lord of the Rings, and you suddenly find yourself knee-deep in a Dungeons and Dragons session with a bunch of sweaty, role-playing nerds . Also, your very definition of what is cool changes completely. You used to th…

There’s something endlessly fascinating about Disney villains—they’re bold, memorable, and somehow manage to steal the spotlight from the heroes. But before these iconic characters ever graced the screen, they started as sketches and ideas on an artist’s drawing board. From the terrifyingly sleek Maleficent to the larger-than-life Ursula, Disney villains went through some dramatic transformations from concept art to final film design, and seeing those changes side-by-side is like watching the m…

Aliens isn’t just any sequel—it’s one of the greatest sequels ever made to one of the best horror movies ever made. When James Cameron took the reins from Ridley Scott, he didn’t just try to recreate the magic of Alien ; he took it in a bold new direction, transforming it from a claustrophobic horror into a high-stakes, action-packed thrill ride. And yet, somehow, Cameron managed to stay completely loyal to the terrifying, atmospheric tension of the original. This list of behind-the-scenes phot…

The world is full of unforgettable villains, and one Redditor recently asked a compelling question: Which fictional villain do you feel a bit of compassion for, and why? The thread quickly filled with responses, ranging from thoughtful explanations to some unexpectedly sympathetic choices. Many people felt for the eternally unlucky Wile E. Coyote, whose endless efforts always seem to end in disaster. Others mentioned Dr. Doofenshmirtz from Phineas and Ferb , with his hilariously tragic backstor…

Spoiler alert: he dies.

Time stops for no one, not even for the rich and famous. One day you are a teenager goofing around in front of the camera in your parents living room, and the next moment you are one of the richest people on earth. One second you are nervous about taking your yearbook photo and the next you have become a rock and roll legend. It's fun to look back at old pictures of famous people and see them as they were before their life had become something else entirely. A young Martha Stewart posing for a…

I'll be honest with you - I don't have a single tattoo on my body. It's not that I have anything against inking; I actually love tattoos and find them interesting, creative, and beautiful. The reason I don't have one (or two or thirteen) is because I am scared. Not scared of the pain or of being disappointed with the final result (although I am not thrilled about those aspects either). No, what I am scared of is outgrowing my tattoos. The fact is that I am not the same person I was thirty years…

There are two kinds of scary Halloween costumes: the “I’m dressed as a serial killer or a monster, and you must be afraid of me” kind, and the “Oh god, why is that baby mask looking into my soul? I will never sleep again” kind. I have always found that costumes not intended to scare me are much creepier than those that are obviously trying to frighten me. It seems that in the past, ALL costumes fell into the first category. I personally remember how in the '80s, every kid's mask during Hallowee…

Halloween might just top the charts as my all-time favorite holiday. Sure, I'm all about the festive cheer of Christmas, and Thanksgiving feasts hold a special place in my heart, but there's an undeniable allure to Halloween. That classic blend of orange and black? Total game-changer! Honestly, I'm tempted to drench my home in those shades all year long. The real charm of Halloween, though, lies in its celebration of the eerie and mysterious . In today's world, everything's become a tad too san…

I don't know how you can even compare Halloween to any other holiday. No other date on the calendar can even come close to October 31st. What does Christmas have? Holiday cheer and a tree? Give me a break! I would take pumpkin spice anything over eggnog any day. And what about Thanksgiving? Sure, it has tons of amazing food, and you get to save one turkey out of 46 million, but do you get to dress up as your favorite horror movie character and scare the daylights out of random kids? No! And you…

The U.S. is gearing up for the next presidential election, and as the date approaches, one Redditor posed an intriguing question: Which fictional character would make the best President of the USA, and why? Over 500 Reddit users chimed in (as of writing), delivering a mix of thoughtful, hilarious, and downright surprising suggestions. Logical choices like Jed Bartlet from The West Wing were popular, alongside more unconventional picks such as Dwayne Elizondo Herbert Mountain Dew Camacho from th…

I took my kids for their first-ever pumpkin carving this week, and it went about as well as you'd expect. My youngest was so excited that we handed him a knife that he practically committed pumpkin homicide, gleefully hacking away with pure enthusiasm. Meanwhile, my eldest got way too ambitious and tried to recreate an elaborate "Among Us" pumpkin he saw on YouTube. Unfortunately, the end result didn't quite match his expectations, so he ended up snapping a picture of my pumpkin and sending it…

I took my kids for their first ever pumpkin carving this week and it went as well as you'd think - My youngest was so thrilled we gave him a knife he basically committed homicide on the poor pumpkin While the elder got way too ambitious and tried to recreate an “among us” Pumpkin he saw on some YouTube video. The end result wasn't exactly what he expected so he just took a picture of my pumpkin and sent it to all of his friends. They were not impressed. Hey, I never claimed to know how to carve…
