Nucleus: An Arcade Coffee Table
The retro arcade cabinet is a fine addition to any home, until it comes time to actually find a place for one in your living room. It looks fine if you’re going for an “All That green room” vibe, but for a more mature home gaming solution, there’s now the Nucleus arcade coffee table. When […]

Starbucks Zombie Frappuccino Coming for Halloween
We all remember the Starbucks Unicorn Frappuccino, which for me anyway seemed to be tapping into some widespread cultural joke that couldn’t be completely understood or grasped. I do understand Halloween, though, so the Starbucks Zombie Frappuccino that’s reported to be on the way makes perfect sense to me. The Starbucks Zombie Frappuccino is so […]

‘Godless': A New Western from Steven Soderbergh (Trailer)
Who could have predicted that filmmaker Steven Soderbergh would soon be back to his old prolific ways so shortly after un-retiring with Logan Lucky (everyone, is the answer to that question). Now he’s back at it again, this time teaming up with Netflix to bring us a western series entitled Godless. There’s a teaser for […]

Solitaire Vision: A Watch Safe from Buben & Zorweg (Video)
I don’t know if anyone else has this problem, but in the past I have been at a loss at how to display my deluxe watch collection, often resorting to wearing all of them on my forearms and calves at the same time. Thankfully, those humiliations are now over, thanks to the Solitaire Vision, a […]

“John Carpenter’s Halloween” Theme Song Covered by Trent Reznor and Atticus Ross (Audio)
It’s Friday the 13th, in October no less, so I’d be remiss if I didn’t leave you with something spooky this afternoon. Luckily, I have just such a something, albeit not one that syncs up calendar-wise as neatly as one might hope. Then again a Trent Reznor and Atticus Ross cover of the Friday the […]

‘The New Mutants': An X-Men Horror Movie? (Trailer)
I have commented on this site before about the parallels between comics in the X-Men‘s 80s/90s heyday and the movie and TV industries of today, both of which face a similar dilemma: How can we give people as much X-Men stuff as possible? That kind of creative saturation can reap some interesting fruit, as evidenced […]

‘The Saga Continues': New Wu-Tang Clan Album Out Now
We’ve been hearing about the new studio album from The Wu-Tang Clan for a few weeks now, and now the new record is finally here. It’s called The Saga Continues, a somewhat shortened title with no “Wu-Tang” in the actual title of the album, but other than that everything appears to be as promised, and […]

Cups Coffee: Coffee Pods Perfected
Keurig and other comparable single-serving coffee pod brands are mighty convenient, but they carry a host of inevitable downsides that go along with that convenience. From a coffee lover’s (and not an environmentalist’s) point of view, one of the biggest of those downsides is the fact that the coffee inside the K-Cups isn’t fresh – […]
