WonderCon 2025: Most Anticipated Panels WonderCon 2025 is upon us! Seems like it was just yesterday that I attended last year's event but I am always happy to attend and cover this convention. This year's slate is one of the more fascinating collection of panels I've seen from a convention, namely cause there does not seem to be a gigantic movie panel in the group which is great cause there's so much more attention on the smaller panels.

#TBT: The scenes in the film of #Godzilla underwater were filmed "dry for wet" with an aquarium placed between the camera and suit actor Haruo Nakajima. This was combined with actual underwater footage of divers with additional "dry for wet" scenes of Ogata and Serizawa. #2BlackGuysTalkGodzilla

Film Review: Snow White What good is the idea of whimsy? This question is one that I pondered by the end of Snow White, Disney’s new live action adaptation, which has a lot of what we’d perceive as whimsy. The movie hits all the cute buttons, tries its darndest to update the story, and employs a lead who can sing. But it never quite manages to make all of its elements come together, the cute moments lead to grating one, the story updates actually remove some bite, and Rachel..well she’s pretty excellent.
