Netflix & Kill—Review: 'Castlevania'
Castlevania is an incredible animated show that I never want to see as a live feature. The Netflix-exclusive show based on the video game series is exactly what you need if you like a smart, gory and well-told story. The show takes the legend of Dracula and it gives it a unique angle. This angle shows Vlad Dracula Tepes not as a monster that feeds on the living. Instead, the audience can see Dracula as a husband whose world is shattered after the church burns his wife at the stake.

Viewing 'The Man From U.N.C.L.E.' Film
Anyone with even a modicum of interest in the spy genre will be aware of The Man From U.N.C.L.E. TV series from the 1960s. It's one of those shows that, even if like me you've seen next to nothing of, you'll be aware of it. It was also a series that seemed set for a big screen incarnation in recent years with everyone from George Clooney to Steven Soderbergh and Tom Cruise reported to be involved. It was only in 2015 that it finally made the leap, directed by Guy Ritchie. The results though were decidedly average.

Lesbian Couples In Comics
Though it's often considered to be a male-dominated scene filled with characters that are super manly men, the comic book scene is surprisingly friendly towards women and LGBTQIA people. In fact, the comic book industry has been featuring gay characters for decades - long before gay characters were introduced to mainstream TV shows.

Box Office Flops Vindicated By History
Not all works of genius are adored the moment that they are conceived and marketed. Sometimes, it takes a little time. In the music industry, there have been many hits that only became hits years after they were first recorded. Many people ignore a certain song, only for it to become discovered by indie groups that start using it as a new anthem.
