In the trial scenes, what seems to animate the prosecution more than any specific legal transgression is the injury committed to good sportsmanship. Whatever the judicial truth of the matter, the sly suggestion here is that Major Charles and Diana Ingram were really put on trial for betrayal of the so-called English character. The case

It’s obvious enough to argue that Zack is now alive because Cloud and his crew fought the Whispers and disrupted the previous timeline. That much is basically confirmed by a few details during the ending sequence involving Zack. For instance, we see Whispers floating around Midgar and we briefly get a peak of a cartoon

The rapid progression of technology has led to a huge increase in energy usage to process the massive troves of data generated by devices. But researchers in the Cockrell School of Engineering at The University of Texas at Austin have found a way to make the new generation of smart computers more energy efficient. Traditionally,
Irvine, Calif., April 13, 2020 – Researchers at the University of California, Irvine and other institutions have architecturally designed plate-nanolattices – nanometer-sized carbon structures – that are stronger than diamonds as a ratio of strength to density. In a recent study in Nature Communications, the scientists report success in conceptualizing and fabricating the material, which

Some say upset dongs are the sweetest. See for yourself: MLB The Show Players League Schedule: Night three is a showcase for young studs. The players scheduled to play are Jeff McNeil (New York Mets), Lucas Giolito (Chicago White Sox), Ryne Stanek (Miami Marlins), Fernando Tatis Jr. (San Diego Padres), and Bo Bichette (Toronto Blue
For the bulk of Season 1, Villanelle goes around killing a bunch of people, including Eve’s boring, sexist former boss Frank, who turns out to be a double agent who was also working for The Twelve, the shadowy secret organization that employs Villanelle. We also meet Konstantin, the Russian teddy bear of a man who
The world’s latest obsession is Netflix documentary series Tiger King: Murder, Mayhem and Madness, the story of private zoo owner Joe Exotic and his long running feud with Big Cat Rescue founder Carole Baskin which ends in a murder-for-hire plot and a 22 year prison sentence for Joe. It’s genuinely one of the strangest, most
Obsidian Entertainment has revealed that its next project is a survival game called Grounded. In this follow up to the excellent The Outer Worlds, players assume the role of a tiny human who has shrunk to roughly the “size of an ant” and must now survive the perils of your average backyard. Yes, that means
Julian’s disdain for magic, while falling in love with a magical person, should make for compelling drama. The problem is, his relationship with Macy doesn’t feel solid enough to hinge an emotional arc on. Their romantic connection feels mostly one-sided, even before she commits to ending it. Their feelings for one another are supposed to
For the baseball world, The Show must go on. No, ballplayers don’t appear to be returning to the diamond any time soon. Instead, Major League Baseball has teamed with the MLB Players Association and Sony Interactive Entertainment to launch a first-of-its-kind MLB The Show 20 Players League, MLB announced Friday morning. One player representative from
Star Wars: The Clone Wars season 7 tells the stories that showrunner Dave Filoni never got to tell during the show’s original run, which came to an end in 2014. The new and final season consists of 12 episodes, covering arcs previously alluded to in Star Wars lore but never released in final form on
Those who played the original game know how their stories play out and will find that a familiar fate awaits this trio in the remake. After bombing the Sector 1 and Sector 5 reactors in Midgar, Shinra decides to retaliate by dropping part of the upper city on the Sector 7 slums and the Avalanche
The Mandalorian may currently stand alone in the arena of live-action small screen Star Wars shows, but it will be joined soon enough by the developing Disney+ Star Wars Cassian Andor series. It’s an intriguing offering, since the show will see one of the franchise’s big-screen stars, Diego Luna, reprise his role from 2016’s Rogue
As a party member (and party leader), Tifa helps Cloud on many missions in Midgar, including attacking the Sector 5 reactor, and she later accompanies him in a desperate attempt to stop Shinra from destroying the Sector 7 slums and 7th Heaven. But Avalanche doesn’t stand a chance against Shinra and most of the members
Every reveal in this episode felt flat and disconnected from the plot around it. After stalking Ahsoka for two episodes, the Mandalorians simply walk up and speak to her. Maul’s reappearance is the classic reveal of a character looking up from under a hood, an unexpectedly tensionless scene barely aided by some assertive music. Why
The organizers of EGX 2020 have confirmed their plans to run the event from September 17-20 at London’s Excel center when they hope that the spread of the coronavirus will have been reduced enough to allow such a large gathering to take place. “We are doing the best we can during this unprecedented time, looking
Red Dwarf has been a lot of different shows, probably more than any science fiction show that’s kept the same principal cast in place for its entire run. Over the last 32 years it has been a zero-budget flatmate comedy with plots that could be filmed exclusively between a corridor and a bunk bed, a big old high
What is it about the Court of Owls that’s given them such staying power? “The scariest thing is when the things that you feel most comfortable with attack you,” Snyder says. “I think that’s why I loved Stephen King growing up. He does that over and over with things that are totemically comfortable like your
But even the D-Backs took their lumps, courtesy of a pair of grand slams by Travis d’Arnaud and Marcell Ozuna (both are honored in our Dongs of the Week segment) in one of their two losses this season. Arizona’s National League West rivals, the Los Angeles Dodgers, are keeping pace thanks to the generational talent

[embedded content] “Wicked Little Town” was originally slated to premiere on April 8th, but was pushed back (along with other CW episodes) as TV networks began to strategize what a near future without new content would look like. If this ends up being the last Riverdale we get for a while, then at least it

Edith Smith bred a bluer and shinier Common Buckeye at her butterfly farm in Florida, but it took University of California, Berkeley, graduate student Rachel Thayer to explain the physical and genetic changes underlying the butterfly’s newly acquired iridescence. In the process, Thayer discovered how relatively easy it is for butterflies to change their wing
