Going into 2025, there were a lot of films on my radar to look forward to. One film that seemed like an outlier compared to the others was The Life of Chuck. From seeing the poster and the trailer, there was very…
So if “73 Yards” was vague, I think “Wish World” was written by George RR Martin and edited by the corpse of JRR Tolkien as puppeteered by Hideo Kojima. This episode was directed by the Christmas Special episode, “Joy to the World”…
