5 Underappreciated Musical Films
Musicals have always been, and will likely always be, a popular genre of entertainment. It's not necessarily my favorite genre—particularly when it comes to film, but I can see the appeal. There's just something cathartic about watching a film where you're not being bombarded with gunfights, explosions, and/or excessive gore. Instead, musicals bombard you with... well... music.

5 Under-Appreciated Cartoons
Cartoons... we've all grown up with them in some way or another. Whether it's a newspaper comic strip, a good movie, or a memorable line; cartoons are a part of almost every kid's formative years. Of course, as new titles are released, the older ones fade into obscurity. With that in mind, I thought I'd do something a little bit different, and possibly, launch a new series covering under-appreciated cartoons.

Crypt TV Fables: Who Is the Piper?
I discovered Crypt TV a few months ago when an episode of Jon Solo's Messed Up Origins series covered the story of the Pied Piper. I subsequently went back and watched some of their other videos and was impressed with what I found.

Musicals have been around for ages and are a popular genre of entertainment. Personally, I never really saw the appeal of musical films; they always seemed kind of silly to me as a kid. As I grew older though I started to see things differently—not that you get much choice when there's a freaking song stuck in your head for months!

10 Book Series That Need to Be Adapted to Television
I think we've all read that one book or series of books, and wondered where the film was. Now, I grew up reading the Hardy Boys and Nancy Drew novels, as well as several others. As I got older and my tastes obviously changed, and while I'd still read the occasional Hardy Boys adventure, they quickly became a sort of once-in-a-while read for me.

Old School Anime Review - 'Gall Force: Eternal Story'
I've been a huge anime fan for years now and that's not likely to change. My preferences haven't really changed all that much over the years. I've seen hundreds of episodes from various series and most of the time they've been very enjoyable. Obviously, there were a few duds here and there but that's true for any genre.

5 Underappreciated Fantasy Films II
Back at the start of August last year I did a list of underappreciated fantasy films and I figured it was about time to do another underappreciated films list and I thought I'd continue with fantasy films before moving on to sci-fi and horror and so on.

5 Underappreciated Romance Films
Okay, I'm not big on the romance genre when it comes to movies. Don't get me wrong, I enjoy a good romantic comedy every now and then but I'm not going to go looking for one. With that in mind, I've seen a few romance films which don't really get a lot of attention; let's look at some of them.

Netflix Potential: Lady Death
If you could remake a movie of your choice; which would it be and how would you go about re-adapting it? Last year I did an article on the Top 5 Comic Book Films which deserve a second chance. The feedback I got was fantastic and one comment in particular stuck out to me asking about who would play the leads in these remakes.
