Horror Movies in 2018 - Your Home for Social Thrillers and Post-Horror

2016 was a fantastic year for horror and 2017 might have been even better. A24 continues to pump out great indie horror, It made a gorillion dollars, and Get Out is a best picture nominee. What a time to be alive. 2018 looks to carry that momentum, and also it doesn't have a single Resident Evil or Underworld movie on the slate. 

Swinging Pizzagate - Super Bowl Preview: It's Steven's Universe and Chris is Living in it

The end times have come. The Philadlephia Eagles absolutely devastated the Minnesota Hitchbots and now they are one game away from retiring a lifetime of Eagles Trophy Case memes. If that's not bad enough, Chris went 0 for 2 and had to watch two (2) episodes of Steven Universe. It's the Penultimate Pizzagate and we're sadder than ever.

Swinging Pizzagate - NFL Conference Championship Preview: Puffy AmiYugi-Boy

The playoffs keep chugging along and boy do I have egg on my face. "Make Chris watch Yu-Gi-Oh," I said, "it'll be hilarious." Well joke's on me. Due in part to Stefon Diggs making one of the most ridiculous plays I've ever seen, I was supposed to watch not one, not two, but three episodes of "Hi Hi Puffy AmiYumi." Supposed to is the key word.

I've nearly hit my breaking point, and I fear that if the Eagles make it to a Super Bowl I may never recover.

Swinging Pizzagate - NFL Divisional Round Preview: Undefeated Playoff Quarterback Blake Bortles

The NFL playoffs keep chugga chugga chuggign along. Chris and I split our picks 2-2 last week, meaning both of us got to endure equal punishment. Well, relatively equal. Chris got to watch 2 episodes of Yu-Gi-Oh for the first time, and I was lucky enough to pop my Sonic Underground cherry. It's exactly how it sounds, except messier than normal because of the chili dogs. 

Oh and also we talk about this weekend's games. But mostly children's anime from a decade ago.

Swinging Pizzagate - NFL Wild Card Weekend Preview: Never Running From A Real Fight

Holy shit, we made it through 2017 and one of the most dire seasons in recent memory. The playoffs are here and that's all that matters. The Bills Mafia are playoff bound, Marvin Lewis got another extension, and it turns out that the joke's on Chris because I actually love Sailor Moon. For once, the weekly bet backfired. I'm going to enjoy it while I can because I can only imagine what fresh hell awaits me next week.
