Horizons

We were all sad to see Ash Ketchum go, but his still being the Pokémon anime’s 10-year-old main character after 25 years of adventures was a huge part of why the show seemed stuck in the past. Though Ash never really changed all that much, the larger Pokémon franchise did. And while the anime always took cues from the games, it also became very comfortable sticking to its own straightforward formula. Considering how buggy the most recent generation of Pokémon games has been, it might be hard to imagine the anime faring…

In the decades since its release, one of the best sci-fi movies Event Horizon has continued to earn a steady stream of hype, thanks to the loss of director Paul W.S. Anderson’s original cut. While there are myriad stories about what the director's cut contained (and why it’s seemingly lost to time), actor Jason Isaacs recently chimed in with some interesting information about those "definitely illegal" lost scenes. While promoting his latest film, the BritBox Cary Grant biopic Archie, Isaacs shared some more with Yahoo…

Pokémon Horizons features a new duo of Liko and Roy, each with a starter from the Paldea region. Liko is paired with the grass-type Sprigatito, while Roy…

Earlier this year, the English dub of Ash Ketchum’s 25-year long saga came to a triumphant end, with a long send-off to the young hero. Now, Pokémon is moving ahead with the next generation of its animation, and I got an early first look at the first four episodes.   Pokémon Horizons: The Series ditches League training and Team Rocket for a brand-new adventure.
