Toad Baron's world is meant to be the ultimate distraction. Anyone from throughout reality can pop on by to let loose and forget their troubles, so Tony Bennett's inclusion, while brief, has some delightful ramifications. The scene in question sees Toad Baron talking about all of the things one can do at this party, listing off various things that don't make a ton of sense before finally mentioning how Bennett shows up to play video games at times. It's humorous to think of Bennett jumping through…

Where life was in plastic, and therefore fantastic?Turtle Power with Melissa Navia | First FandomsIf you thought it was only other movies coming out the same day as Barbie tomorrow that were getting in on the crossover portmanteau hype—shout out to my movie marathon of choice this weekend, Shin Barben Rider—you’d be mistaken, because today Paramount released a very cute,…

Hall H, why have we forsaken thee? Oh, because everyone is either on strike or figuring out what to tell their shareholders before they can even think about fan-baiting. Several prominent studios announced recently that they would be skipping this year’s San Diego Comic-Con amid the writers’ strike, and the newly minted SAG-AFTRA strike isn’t helping matters. However, Paramount is seizing the opportunity to be the only major studio sharing something in the legendary Hall H this year — and that project is…

Whatever becomes of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Mutant Mayhem, whether it’s a shellshocker of a win for the four iconic reptiles or one of their more lackluster outings, one thing that can never be taken away from it is the fact that it knows how to capitalize when it comes to marketing. Indeed, a delightfully animated TMNT film written by Seth Rogen and featuring the voice of pretty much everyone meant that Mutant Mayhem was already off to a good start with catching the eyes of audiences, but thanks to the movie’s new…

To say The Flash bombed at the box office is a bit of an understatement. The film cost around $200 million to make, and anywhere between $70 million and another $200 million to promote. Now, The Flash is leaving theaters with a worldwide haul of only $267.2 million as of July 16 — meaning it never broke even at the multiplex. Basically, Warner Bros. Discovery totally lost its shirt, and it’s hoping that Barbie can re-seam it as fast as possible. To incentivize people to buy The Flash on digital and 4K, director Andy…

It’s right there in the name. The first word in fact. So many times, movies, shows, or comics have focused on the “mutant”, “ninja,” or “turtles” aspects of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. But what about their ages? We know that they’re teenagers, but are those awkward years ever the focus? Well, they most certainly were for the team behind Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Mutant Mayhem, and they brought it to life in a very unique way. Turtle Power with Melissa Navia | First FandomsFor the first time ever, actual…
