Dispatch Review - Fantastic Superhero TV

Dispatch feels like it harkens back to the early 2010s--a time when Telltale Games was creating incredible episodic adventure games inspired by graphic novels, superhero stories were beginning to fill to the brim with quips to counterbalance the angst of the genre in the 2000s, and office-based TV comedies were everywhere. If not for snippets of gameplay, Dispatch would simply be a great TV show that I would want to tune into every week.

Why Is Mario Being Such A Jerk In The Galaxy Movie Trailer?

In today's first trailer for next year's The Super Mario Galaxy Movie, there's one aspect that stuck out as very peculiar. Throughout the two minutes of footage, the titular star speaks only two words (unless you count a "Wahoo!"), and they're incredibly out of character for the mustachioed good guy. "It's trash," sneers Chris Pratt voicing Mario, looking at Bowser's painting while sanctimoniously closing his eyes in the least Mario-like moment I've ever seen.
