Mama mia! It's Mario time! To celebrate our favourite mushroom-eating, high-jumping, adventure-seeking Italian plumber on his 35th birthday, we take a look back on all the Mario games that have brought us gamers so much joy over the years. While last year we ranked Top 5 Super Mario Games, this year we wanted to celebrate an aspect of these iconic platformers that is crucial to making these games...

"It may feel impossible, but sometimes, you just have to take the first step" Over the last couple of films, Disney Princesses have started to move away from the formula of being the damsel in distress and having to have big sweeping romantic love stories.

"There are three types of people: Those at the top, those at the bottom, and those who fall." There have been many films that have tried to provide social commentary on status and class in such a way that it's almost become it's own sub-genre of movies. And while Parasite has popularized this sub genre in such a way that it set up a very a high bar for movies to follow, there is still room for the...

Age is just a number, especially to these butt-woopin' seniors. When we think of old people it is easy to immediately imagine that stereotype of a feeble hunched-back, white-haired individual that's slowly shuffling along with their walking cane and shaking their fist at kids. Well today's nominees completely shatter that stereotype in such a way that if you were to ever compare them to it, you wo...

"Time to go pound some Cunth!" These days when you say Saturday Night Live we often think about the weekly sketch show featuring a famous Hollywood guest host and some popular music artist.
