By: Hess Sahlollbey Pokémon has always been about venturing out and searching for the those elusive little creatures. Whether you tried to collect your favorite cards or you just “gotta catch em all” on Nintendo’s Gameboy- that feeling of joy when we caught a new one kept us all hooked. Now with Pokémon GO, we have come even closer to feeling like a Pokémon trainer. Sadly the game does have a tutorial outside of a...

[REVIEW] Batman v Superman

• Mar 31, 2016 — (last modified) Mar 30, 2016 • Arts, FEATURES, Film, Reviews

By: Hess Sahlollbey If my tickets were refundable, I would’ve left the theater after five minutes and asked for my money back. What should have been a simple grudge match between two orphans before they team up to face a greater evil is encumbered by a lengthy and superfluous political story and abstract metaphors. While Man Of Steel was an effective introduction to Superman, Batman v Superman: Dawn Of Justice can easily be surmised...

This may seem expensive at first, but there are many scenarios where such an option would be significantly...

By: Hess Sahlollbey Whether you’re a Trekkie, an aspiring cosplayer or simply hoping to meet others who share your interests, this weekend belonged to the fans as they took over the downtown Toronto core. Punisher, Batman and Superman all have big releases this month and made their presence known from the moment I got off the subway and headed to Toronto ComicCon. An annual convention, Toronto ComicCon takes over the city center for a...

By: Joe Jodoin Daredevil’s second season aims to answer what it means to be a hero, both literally and figuratively. I didn’t know what to expect of Daredevil’s sophomore season for a couple reasons. Firstly, the showrunner of the first season left and was replaced by two new guys, and secondly because the show was now going to focus on two other Marvel anti-heroes, Punisher and Elektra. Luckily, they kept mostly everything that was...
