The Dark Herald Recommends: The Death of Stalin a Comedy of Terrors

NOTE: In the mood for a dark laugh? I know I am and I've got you covered. REPOST:The Left never lies about what it really wants.Oh sure, they lie about everything else but when they state their ultimate objectives, those are promises cut in stone, no matter how insane they sound.The staff of the National Cuckshed and the Bulwank try to make unfunny jokes about them but the problem is, the Left ain’t joking.Thirty years ago, they weren’t joking...

WandaVision: First Impressions

This is not a review. I’ll have to finish the first season before I can do a proper The Dark Herald Recommends.This show is very definitely an odd duck. In principle, I like those. We will have to see how this goes in practice.The first episode starts off as a 1950s family sitcom. To include the style and tropes of shows like I Love Lucy and I Married Joan. The show is naturally in black and white.Vision and Wanda are living an idyllic...

Don’t Take the Disney Bait!

From StarWars.com:“The Star Wars gaming galaxy is about to experience its own Big Bang.“We’ve got a lot of stuff we’re ready to start sharing with fans,” Lucasfilm Games VP Douglas Reilly tells StarWars.com, “because we’ve been working quietly behind the scenes for a while now, waiting for this moment.”And by “this moment,” Reilly is referring to a new direction and era for Star Wars and Lucasfilm gaming overall, as Lucasfilm Games is now opening the doors to developers that want to come play in the...

Avoid Like The Plague: The Watch

This show hates me. And it feels quite personal.I mean, ran over your dog, backed up and did it again, burned down your house, then sent your wife and children to the gas chambers personal. That is the level of individual hatred I felt directed at me while I was viewing The Watch. I am quite serious when I say that this show is the product of extreme mental illness. Absolute, abject hatred of its source material is evident in every aspect...

The Star Wars the High Republic

I’ve never seen this much hype for this much nothing.Star Wars the High Republic has dropped, and we now have a new definition of flash and thunder that signifies jack-shit.The Story Group at Lucasfilm has been reliably rumored to keep a picture of Luke with a big red X across his face in their writer’s room. Which isn’t a surprise given one of their authors is Justina Ireland, who openly admits her driving force is rage against white people. She’s a...

It’s Time For Marvel to Abandon the Punisher

The Punisher Log has now been officially declared "Transracisthomophobic.""The seditionists that invaded the Capitol today wore a Punisher logo. I say @marvel needs to either aggressively enforce their trademark so it isn't printed everywhere or abandon the Punisher completely. You can't allow your characters to be used by terrorists. — ComicTropes (@CTropes) January 7, 2021"I can't believe the words that are about to flow out of my fingers but I for one support ComicTropes, (whatever the hell they are?), in...

Blogs and Ends: Question from my Readers

Bonesaw asks: Out of interest – is there any sci fi that’s worth watching at the moment?No.……………I thought about just leaving that as my answer and given the events of the last 24 hours I’m not sure anybody is going to be reading a popculture blog today anyway. But I should give you more of an answer than that.Currently, there is NO decent science fiction being produced in America. Given the state of Hollywood and their SJW checklists and diversity casting...

The Nightmare World of Chinballs

Pictured: Not Chris Chibnall... But might as well be.If you google the name, Chris Chibnall, the second “people also ask” is, “Why is Doctor Who so bad now?” Think about that. Put yourself in his shoes. You are famous enough that people want to google your name and the second most common question they ask about you is, “Why are you such fuck up? It is often said, the key to the answer is to ask the right question. Maybe, “Why is Doctor Who so...

The Lords of Chaos Triumphant

The time of the Kali Yuga has descended upon the DCEU.In case you are wondering, what the hell does that mean?“In the DC Comics canon, the Lords of Chaos are higher beings of great mystical power that represent chaos and acted as the avatars of the concept of change during the Ninth Age of Magic. Empowering followers with their magics, they fight the Lords of Order as their ultimate goal is to bring about the "Kali Yuga", a term use to describe a period where...
