With the rise of AI-generated art, the “X reimagined in the style of Y” genre has become saturated. Anyone can use ChatGPT or MidJourney to generate images of, say, Star Wars characters in the style of Studio Ghibli or realistic-looking Pokémon , and the results would be… satisfactory. The AI is great at giving exactly what we ask for, but nothing more. Does it look good? Yes. Is it impressive that a computer can do it? Absolutely! But it lacks the “wow factor” that a human artist can deliver.…

You can't take the sky from me!

I think maybe we all love Bucky a little too much , and it’s mostly because of Sebastian Stan. I mean, that guy is charming ! I’m not ashamed to admit I watch a lot of reaction videos on YouTube where people watch the entire Infinity Saga for the first time (don’t judge me), and I can see how both men and women react to the Winter Soldier/Bucky. Men think he’s the coolest , and women think he’s the dreamiest. He’s like a non-goody-two-shoes Captain America. He has it all—the looks, the superpow…

Careful! One of these memes might be a Meme-ic

You know what? I’m not going to be ashamed of it anymore, and I’m just going to say it—I love hotdogs! I know it’s considered one of the lowest forms of food, and I know you should never ask how a hotdog is made because you won’t be able to live with the answer (apparently, it’s made with every piece of meat humans refuse to eat). But I am done hiding! I love them! I will buy a jumbo pack of 50 hotdogs, and if no one else is around, I will finish that pack in about two days. I have even enjoyed…

Would you have let your nephew live in a cupboard?

Sometimes I feel like we were transported to a different universe right after Avengers: Endgame . It's like Tony Stark died, Then we had a global pandemic, then civil unrest, several wars, Betty White Died and mumble rap lives on, but it also seems like we accidentally stepped into a universe where Marvel forgot how to run a cinematic universe. Remember the time when Marvel could do no wrong? When every single movie they produced broke box office records and got both the fans and the critics ex…

Any game night that falls just shy of a TPK is a good session

How come there's no Dungeons & Dragons VR game? I mean, I know you can play Skyrim in VR and there are tabletop simulations in VR, but I’m not talking about those. I’m talking about a full-on Dungeons & Dragons campaign in virtual reality—one that you play with a group of friends, each wearing their own VR headset. You each pick a character and then just go out on an adventure in a huge open world. What I think would be most hilarious about a game like this is that the combat would be in real-t…

Potterheads, assemble!

Some years are just complete bangers when it comes to movies. 1994 is often cited as the best year in Hollywood history, with movies like Pulp Fiction , The Shawshank Redemption , Forrest Gump , and The Lion King coming one after the other. But for some reason, whenever you look up “Best years in movie history,” you almost never see 1988. Well, I beg to differ—1988 was an absolutely amazing year with some incredible films coming out one after the other. We're talking classics like Die Hard , Wh…

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…

Dungeons & Dragons - It's cheaper than therapy!

Go explore

On the age-old question of “ Are we alone in the universe ” I stand firmly on the side of “What makes you think you're so special?”. Do you really think that in an infinite universe there is only one planet supporting life? We have 200 billion stars in our galaxy alone and there are billions of galaxies in every direction you look, You really thing this planet is so special? No, we are carbon-based life forms and carbon is one of the most abundant elements in the universe. If it happened here,…

Alright, confession time: I just watched Avatar: The Last Airbender for the first time as a full-grown adult, and let me tell you, it was an experience. I went into it expecting a fun cartoon, but what I got was an epic story filled with deep characters, moral dilemmas, and some surprisingly profound life lessons. Who knew a "kid's show" could deliver so much? Naturally, after finishing, I needed more—so I dove headfirst into the meme world. Turns out, the fandom is just as vibrant as the show…
