via Sony There’s no harm in paying homage to an undisputed classic of cinema that changed storytelling forever, and 2008’s Vantage Point is far from the worst attempt to employ the Rashomon method first brought to prominence in the legendary Akira Kurosawa’s 1950 classic, but it may well be one of the most underwhelming. The technique involves the retelling of the same core plot point with a number of characters from multiple perspectives to try and create an air of mystery as to where the truth really lies.…

Eyes rimmed red, black smeared across his cheeks, brows curved upwards in astonishment, Damian Cabrera glanced for a moment at the sea of fans in Garfield blue celebrating in the seats of red.This was it.

A new trailer for the long-awaited Final Fantasy XVI shows that it doesn’t just share a classic fantasy setting with games like Final Fantasy I, II, III, and IX, but a similar plot as well. The trailer, though, titled Ambition, teases an expansion on those old plotlines as well. Final Fantasy 16 takes place in the land of Valisthea, which is shared by six uneasily peaceful factions: Rosaria, Sanbreque, Waloed, The Dhalmekian Republic, and The Iron Kingdom. Each of these kingdoms has taken plots of land near one of…

Begotten-1989 In this day and age, silent films are a forgotten treasure of the past as dialogue-focused blockbusters have engulfed the cinematic scene. And while the horror genre has rarely utilized the silent approach, an underrated gore-fest feature that has been buried beyond the cinematic shadows has reared its ugly head just in time for this year’s spooky season. The film in question is Edmund Elias Merhige’s Begotten (1989), which has recently resurfaced in the hearts and minds of the horror-loving…

Christina Aguilera first broke into the UK consciousness in 1999 when her debut single ‘Genie in a Bottle’ shot straight to No.1 on the Official Singles Chart in October of that year. Due to her having found fame in America through Disney’s Mickey Mouse Club alongside a certain Britney Spears, the comparisons came thick and fast. Christina’s voice was clearly a huge asset for her and whereas Britney seemed sweet and innocent, Christina was definitely a little edgier from the get go. Although a further three Top 20…
