I'm excited for Avengers: Infinity War, you're excited for it, everyone is excited for it. It's the culmination of almost 10 years worth of of movie making from Marvel Studios, that started way back in 2008. Since then, they've somehow pulled off an almost effortlessly great track record, with genuine gems of cinema like The Avengers, Guardians of The Galaxy, The Winter Solider and Civil War. However, the impending threat of Thanos and the Black Order will only be an impending one for the next 9 months or so. Unlike the arrival of a newborn, this is a 9 month wait that probably won't end in disappointment. But, the question is, can we correctly predict the events of Infinity War and ruin it for ourselves and everyone else? We can damn well try!

It’s fair to say I’m excited for Ready Player One. I hijacked our recent Dunkirk podcast for a minute at the mere mention of Mark Rylance, so giddy was I after the trailer we saw at Comic Con. But my rampant enthusiasm has been met with shrugs thus far, and for a while I couldn’t figure out why. To me, it was genuinely one of the best trailers I’ve ever seen. A perfect blend of teasing, pacing and song choice. But everyone else seemingly just saw another CGI fest, notable only for being directed by God amongst insects Steven Spielberg. Why weren’t people seeing this as the triumph I was?
Then it dawned on me - I was ahead of the game. For once, I’m “the book guy”. Sorry to shatter any illusions you had about me, but unless it’s Harry Potter, The Very Hungry Caterpillar, or literally any wrestling autobiography ever written, I have not read it. But having heard this movie was coming, and that the Lord himself was coming down from Mount Olympus to direct it, I felt the need to check the book out. And I’ll get into my feelings towards it soon, but safe to say, from the second I put it down, I was at maximum hypage. Let me get you where I am.
In this episode of Gotta Cast 'Em All, Mike and Darren take a look back at one year of Pokemon Go and wade through the slurry that was the one year anniversary and Pokemon Go Fest!
In a world full of book adaptations, comic adaptations, anime adaptations and the fucking Emoji Movie, it’s pretty apparent that Hollywood is less and less interested in original works and is all about building franchises from existing properties. Recently, I’ve been thinking about a medium that completely changes when made into film; albums. Now, movies based on album aren’t a foreign concept. Sometimes they’re good, like Tommy and The Wall, sometimes they transcend their material like Straight Outta Compton and sometimes they’re… well, sometimes they’re Through The Never. Either way, it’s a medium rife with possibility. Here are 5 albums that deserve to make the leap to the big screen.
Welcome to another 30 Days of Stuff on FoulENT! Today is the start of another busy month of non-stop content, every single day for 30 days in August. Check back every day this month for a new piece of content and click here to read all past and future 30 Days entries!
In this review, Mike and Darren plunge deep into the murky waters of war to see if Dunkirk is Christopher Nolan's best movie yet! As is tradition for when we do 30 Days Of Stuff, we plan out a huge number of articles to satisfy the thirst that you people have, but never quite get around to writing all of them. Either other things come up in their place, or sometimes the idea is just so good that it needs to remain here forever, untarnished by one of us actually writing it. So here for your delectation is 'Another Another 10 Articles We Didn't Write'
There’s no saying I hate more than; like finding a needle in a haystack. If anything, a needle would stick out in a haystack. I propose we change it to like finding a needle in a pile of needles.
Trying to find quality content on the internet in 2016 is like trying to find a needle in a pile of needles. Sure, you can just jump right in and hope for the best but chances are you’ll end up wading through pricks. Nowhere is this shitstorm of misinformation that more prevalent than news websites. But, the fact that we get our news online now – and not in print – offers opportunities we didn’t have years ago. Opportunities we often overlook due us being entitled simpletons. The common advantages of online news are well documented; cost efficient, time efficient, not having to navigate the outside world efficient, etc, but in recent years we’ve seen even further advancements. You know me, I love consuming me some media. I write a column dedicated to just watching superhero movies and TV, with over-analysis aplenty. Our podcast PopScorn is all about watching and talking about movies. If there's one thing you can say about me with confidence is that I watch a lot of stuff. However, it's impossible to watch everything that's out there. It's also impossible to know when you're about to waste your precious time on hours of steaming televisual shit.
That's where I've decided to do away with journalistic integrity and do what I do best; judge by the cover. And Netflix, being the veritable hotbed of entertainment that it is, is bound to be pad it's gleaming diamonds with huge nuggets of shit. Here are the five worst things I've seen on there... that I haven't actually seen. At Foul Entertainment we pride ourselves on being able to make outrageous claims but never actually deliver. If social media is any barometer, then everybody we know is either a CEO, entrepreneur, artist, activist, intellectual heavyweight, political expert, comedian, photographer, superstar DJ, genius, or MLM preaching business guru.
We understand that image is a lot more important actually being. After all; if everyone thinks you're the CEO of a company, then you basically are, even though your company is just a Facebook page with a picture of you sitting at a desk as the profile shot. Image trumps being, and we're here to help you give that false impression you've always wanted. Believe it or not, social media can be used for more than just looking at pictures of birds you went to school with. In fact, most people miss out on the advantages social media offers because they’re too busy looking at pictures of Lydia Taylor before she got fat. But don’t just take my word for it. I’m going to hand you across to someone who knows his way around social media like I know my way around your mom’s innards.
