NieR: Automata Review
NieR: Automata, released February 2017, is a Japanese RPG emotional roller coaster. While it might draw you in with sex appeal, it will keep you with a gripping storyline (which consists of three unique, linear routes and a total of 26 endings), enchanting soundtrack, and existential commentary.

The Connection Between The Matrix and Westworld
The Matrix trilogy is a groundbreaking series that first came out almost two decades ago and still remains relevant in popular culture today. From satirical portrayals in movies and cartoons to the use of the "Red Pill" as a commonly used term denoting the awakening to reality.But for all of its popularity, there is a misconception about a pretty important plot device that has not been widely addressed. In this article, I attempt to highlight a new perspective on what humans really do for the machines and how it relates to Westworld.

Emma Stone A 'Mean Girl'?
Mean Girls was quite probably one of Lindsay Lohan's best works in her very brief filmography and continues to be well-loved today. With the likes of Tina Fey, Amy Poehler, and Tim Meadows as the beleaguered adults in the world of teens Lohan, Rachel McAdams and Amanda Seyfried, the chemistry between the cast was hard to deny. While there was a largely forgettable attempt to reconjure the magic of that group in 2011's television movie Mean Girls 2, there continues to be a clamoring for a real sequel to the original.

8 Games I Wanted to See Included with the Mini SNES
The news has hit that, as expected, Nintendo will be releasing a mini version of their Super Nintendo system later this year around the world. The new limited edition system will be shipped from the end of September to the end of the year after which, presumably, it will be discontinued much like the NES release that came out not too long ago. Included with the mini SNES will be twenty-one classic games, including the never before released Star Fox 2.

Nocturnal Animals with Amy Adams and Jake Gyllenhaal Will Definitely Keep You Awake
Nocturnal Animals, written and directed by Tom Ford, begins with a rather large, fat naked woman dancing the stripper pole as part of an upscale LA art exhibit. Unsettlingly paradoxical, the metaphor does reveal itself as the drama eventually unfolds. In other words, there’s much to wince at in waiting for this 2016 tale of love lost and revenge to play out.

Dragon Warrior Monsters for the GBC
In this special retro review, I’m reviewing Dragon Warrior Monsters. This Gameboy Color game was originally released in Japan as Dragon Quest Monsters: Terry no Wonderland, and is the first video game in the Dragon Quest Monsters series. It was released in Japan by Enix on September 25, 1998, 2 years after Pokémon, and for some inexplicable reason, Dragon Warrior Monsters, and the whole Dragon Quest saga, just doesn’t seem to do as well in North America as some other games… games I consider to be lesser games, but anyway, this game was remade for the PlayStation as Dragon Quest Monsters 1+2 Hoshi Furi no Yūsha to Bokujō no Nakamatachi, but I’m just going to review the GBC version.

Review: Vince Staples 'Big Fish Theory'
Big Fish Theory is one of the examples of the evolution and diversity of hip-hop. The album is something that your average hip-hop fan might not be compelled to listen at first but they should. The production of the album is different and innovative. In combination with the wittiness and intelligence of the bars of Vince Staples it makes for an amazing project. Big Fish Theory proves that you can make great music without trying to fit into one specific genre or approval of your peers.
