Most of us, even those without mind-numbingly boring existences, have pondered the “Is that all there is?” existence question.

While most every Blockbuster has been shuttered, a handful of video rental stores still manage to survive.

The competition expands beyond the playing field, and building a pastime around conflict between divided factions creates a…

Autumn de Wilde’s new take on Jane Austen’s Emma seems intent on disproving the stereotype that all period pieces are “stiff” or “stuffy.” From its eye-popping haute couture to its punctuated title, Emma. lets you know immediately that its not like the other costume dramas. During the film’s U.S. press junket, we…

2020, a year in which My Chemical Romance fans have scrambled to re-pierce their eyebrows and shimmy back into those pinstripe black pants in time for a reunion tour, represents a perfect opportunity for former emo kids and mall goths across the world to embrace their true, haunted selves. No one embodies this better…
