My Terrifier Journey
By Kevin Hoskinson Entertainment Editor So, I was a bit late to the Terrifier franchise. As a horror fan, it was something that was on my radar, but I never took the leap into it. I was fully aware of Art The Clown but honestly assumed he was just another psychotic killer behind a mask, something I had seen so […]
Sam And Colby: Legends Of The Paranormal Review
By Kevin HoskinsonEntertainment Editor The other night, my daughter and I went to watch the Sam and Colby movie Legends Of The Paranormal, and we had a blast. Through her, I have become a fan of them, and we enjoy their YouTube channel together. She’s 13, and sometimes it feels like it’s hard to connect with her, but our shared […]

Alien: Romulus Review
By Kevin HoskinsonEntertainment Editor Back in 1996, I had the opportunity to travel to Walt Disney World with my high school band. Flying from Washington State to Florida was quite the trek, but it was with a bunch of my peers, and we were thrilled. One of the most memorable experiences I had at the resort was at Magic Kingdom. […]

Inside Out 2: A Personal Journey
By Kevin Hoskinson Entertainment Editor The first Inside Out was a revelation of sorts for a lot of people. Everybody could relate to the story of eleven-year-old Riley and the emotions running wild in her head. Even after you grow out of that phase in your life and think you better grasp those emotions, life hits you with curve balls, […]
Bad Boys: Ride Or Die Review
By Kevin HoskinsonEntertainment Editor It’s hard to believe, but the Bad Boys franchise is almost 30 years old now. It’s also hard to believe that stars Will Smith and Martin Lawrence would be reprising the roles that shot them to stardom after this long and doing it with style. What’s even harder to believe is that the films would be […]
Life is Strange: True Colors Review
By Kevin Hoskinson Entertainment Editor Life is full of choices. Some are simpler than others, but your decisions can affect everything in your life from that moment on. They often leak into the lives of those around you and change their lives for better or worse. It’s a part of being human and as vital as breathing, eating, and staying […]
Let It Rip Chicago: C2E2 2024

From the films of John Hughes, The Blues Brothers, The Smashing Pumpkins, and most recently, The Bear, the city has held a special place in many a nerd’s heart for decades. As somebody who has watched the culture […]
Late Night With The Devil Review
By Kevin HoskinsonEntertainment Editor A few years back, I watched a film called Ghostwatch. It had been on my radar for a long time, but the opportunity to finally watch it presented itself when my wife and kids were out of town for the evening. Ghostwatch is a British mocumentaty that aired on Halloween night in 1992 across the pond. […]
Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire Review
By Kevin HoskinsonEntertainment Editor Ghostbusters is part of many lives around the world. The original film was released in 1984, and a sequel followed shortly after, creating one of the most influential and popular franchises of all time. While they weren’t the first to incorporate comedy into the horror genre, they were the first to be taken into the mainstream […]

Madame Web Review
By Kevin HoskinsonEntertainment Editor It’s hard to go into a movie that so much has already been said about with an open mind. Whether it’s good or bad, the opinions of others often cast a massive shadow over particular films, and Madame Web is a great example of that. With the exception of the animated Spider-Verse films, the Sony Spidey-centric […]
A Nerds Adventure On The Open Seas
By Kevin HoskinsonEntertainment Editor When my wife and I first set sail on the Discovery Princess in 2022 for an Alaskan Cruise, we weren’t quite sure what to expect. We had both experienced short cruises when we were young adult but nothing like the massive seven-day trek we were about to embark on. As somebody who enjoys nature but also […]

Wednesday #1 Review
By Kevin HoskinsonEntertainment Editor Community is sometimes hard to find. There is a world where everybody you surround yourself with shares the same passions as you do and understands exactly where you are coming from. While this world does exist in some version of the multiverse, most of us in this one are struggling to find that sense of belonging. […]

Blink-182: One More Time… Review
By Kevin Hoskinson Entertainment Editor It was the fall of 2022 when fans of Blink-182 had their collective minds blown. After weeks of speculation and rumors, it was confirmed that original founding member Tom DeLonge was reuniting with his former bandmates Mark Hoppus and Travis Barker. It was surprising, but fans were over the moon with this news and were […]
The Exorcist: Believer Review
By Kevin HoskinsonEntertainment Editor THE EXORCIST: BELIEVER isn’t nearly as bad as other critics want you to think it is. Is it the Exorcist sequel we have held our breath for all these years? Not really. But considering nobody asked for a new entry in the franchise, it seems counterproductive to think it was going to be. It’s an exorcism […]
Blink-182: The Album Ranking
(Photo credit: https://www.sonymusic.ca/press_release/blink-182-announce-highly-anticipated-new-album-one-more-time) By Kevin Hoskinson Entertainment Editor “These three snot-nosed San Diego punks bottled suburban angst and distilled it into bright, shiny pop songs that might as well have been state-issued to every American teen. During their height, Blink permeated nearly every aspect of popular culture, making them arguably the most influential pop-punk band ever.” -Alternative Press, 2015 The […]
Saw X Review
By Kevin HoskinsonEntertainment Editor The Saw franchise is one that has seemingly done everything it can do with its premise. It quickly became about the traps and how each installment could outdo the next, with each one getting bloodier and more depraved. It’s hard for a franchise ten films in to find a fresh take that is unique and hasn’t […]
RCCC 2023: Critical Role Attacks Portland!
By Kevin HoskinsonEntertainment Editor Rose City Comic Con took the Oregon Convention Center by storm this weekend, and it was one of the most interesting and exciting years yet. It was packed with celebrity guests, including actors, voice-over artists, writers, animators, and every other type of artist you could think of. Even though it had the same amount of activities […]
Movie Review: Bottoms
By Kevin HoskinsonEntertainment Editor One thing that has fascinated me over the years is watching the evolution of high school comedies. Every generation gets their time to shine in the genre, and they seem to elevate to the next level every time. Being born in the 80s, we got our turn to shine when movies like Can’t Hardly Wait and […]
Rogers: The Musical Review
Rogers: The Musical Review By Kevin Hoskinson Entertainment Editor Conceived initially as a joke and pitched to Marvel Studios president Kevin Feige as such, Rogers: The Musical is something of a tiny miracle. Premiering as a gag in the Disney+ series Hawkeye, it was meant to remain just that, a fleeting and funny moment in MCU history. But when you […]
