San Diego Comic-Con has always been the go-to place of studios to share major news about their upcoming projects, may it be casting announcements, exclusive clips, or slip-ups by actors during Q&As. This year’s con is no different. Marvel finally confirmed the long-rumored casting of Brie Larson as Captain Marvel. They

#TWD 5.8: “Coda”
The collective effort that The Walking Dead took in order to up the ante for its fifth season is, it can be said, squandered, with such a ridiculous conclusion that leads to yet another tragic death. What the fuck, Scott M. Gimple? Lost your senses? I read in Facebook posts
#TWD 5.7: “Crossed”
The fifth season of The Walking Dead has so far been a whirlwind, with consistently solid episodes that keep formidable emotional groundings. It helps that Scott M. Gimple understands the need for a faster pace, and in the process, takes the previous season’s few achievements to great use. Episodes from
#TWD 5.6: “Consumed”
Carol’s transit from small to major character is, as is the normality in the series, especially ugly, having to witness the true death of her daughter as a walker. There is a precious moment in this week’s “Consumed,” which resonates that loss deeply but the show is past the naiveté
#TWD 5.5: “Self-Help”
The Riddle of Samson—“out of the eater, something to eat; out of the strong, something sweet”—is cited towards the end of “Self-Help.” It can be a portentous build-up to Eugene Porter’s inexorable reveal, an homage to Stephen King’s third Dark Tower, or both, but the scene in which the riddle
#TWD 5.4: ‘Slabtown’
At last we arrive at Episode Beth (Emily Kinney)—the arc for which you and your meme generators have been in keen anticipation. The episode, titled “Slabtown,” opens in a hospital ward, peeping through a now-desolate Atlanta. Who took her is naturally our first inquiry: The last time we saw of
#TWD 5.3: ‘Four Walls and a Roof’
“Four Rooms and a Roof,” the stirring third episode of fifth-season The Walking Dead, marks what looks to be a dramatic swerve for the series. First: events are building up rapidly—as with the easy disposal of Gareth (Andrew J. West) and his cannibal crew—a welcome change of pace, given last
#TWD 5.2: ‘Strangers’
The Walking Dead tends to grow laborious at times and it often does when its principal characters are gathered in a group. So it is rather delightful to see the show picking up pace and going on-point with its tense second episode ‘Strangers.’ The whole lot is compact (if talky), bringing
#TWD 5.1: ‘No Sanctuary’
The human race commit atrocities it eventually forgets. For whatever reason the thought lingers as I watch the fifth season premiere of The Walking Dead which plays as if it is set to lure its audience back. The episode is the hell of red, riddled with maimed Walkers, gnawed faces
