This THE 100 review contains spoilers The 100 Season 7 Episode 2 “The Garden” flits back and forth through time to introduce us to the world beyond the Anomaly, and by extension, to properly reintroduce us to Hope and the Anomaly itself, now known as the bridge. Quite literally a world apart, it’s a magical hour of television that stands as one of the series’ best episodes.

Though Nintendo’s experienced some hardship when it comes to hardware over the past few years, they’ve also released some amazing innovations and products. One of their most recent success stories is their foray into toys-to-life: Amiibo. Nintendo first introduced the figures alongside the original Super Smash Bros. as a collectible. These figurines serve multiple purposes, and have become quite the collector’s item. Amiibo, once scanned via the Wii U gamepad, serve different functions based on which game is currently being played....

After six years since the last console version of Zelda, The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword, the new adventure is finally here and The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild is well worth the wait. It’s taking all of my will power right now to write this instead of playing more of it. I’m helplessly addicted! That’s not to say the game doesn’t have any downfalls. Frequently I’m torn between really loving the game and cursing its name....

The Beatles blasted the London financial district for their last lunchtime concert. The Beatles ended their concert history the way it began. Before the four Beatles were fab, there were five of them and they played to swinging teens during their midday breaks at the famous Cavern Club and the Casbah, an obscure performance space painted in day-glo colors by art students Stuart Sutcliff and John Lennon, in Liverpool. This was before and after the band pulled eight hour live shifts in Hamburg, Germany....

The most chill Pokemon around, the Ice Pokemon, have some fantastic fighters in their midst. Ice is presently one of the least numerous types in the series, but don’t let such thoughts tarnish their reputation. It’s a great type when used effectively, and many of our frosty monster friends are solid picks for all sorts of teams. Take Ice’s inherent strength against Dragon Pokemon, for example. Dragons are prominent fixtures in plenty of climactic encounters, meaning Ice-types earn their keep when it counts....

DEN OF GEEK: What’s it like to play a character that doesn’t talk? KAREN FUKUHARA: It’s a lot of listening because you’re not allowed to speak. You listen more.

And then how I try to show what I’m trying to portray through my physical being rather than through my voice....

Sir Arthur Conan-Doyle didn’t invent the Lost World pulp sub-genre, but his 1912 novel gave it its name. And it’s interesting to note that, almost a century later, the notion of ancient beasts lurking in lost valleys still holds such a sway on our modern, jaded imaginations.

Walking across the set of The Expanse can be a fairly surreal experience in that distances between planets are compressed to a few steps. Behind one flat is the UN situation room on Earth where Avasarala is briefed on military operations in deep space, and around a corner is a rocky underground public space on Mars, illuminated colorfully to break up the red stone walls.
