From movies, TV shows, and comics to music, fashion, and gaming, the realm of pop culture encompasses a wide range of genres and fandoms. In recent years, designers have tapped into this collective obsession to crea

Update [20/12/2023]: Video added. It's the end of the year, and with that comes (heh) the annual insights from entertainment site Pornhub, which is being used the most by our neighbours in The Philippines. The stats site not only shows off popular actors and movie/TV characters, but also video game characters. We

Here's more news to prove the dinosaur stance of Nintendo, as well as the chief reason why the 2015 Netflix Zelda adaptation was cancelled. In an attempt to spread out in film and TV property like it did in the early 90s, Nintendo was going to release a Star Fox claymation project, led by Shigeru Miyamoto and produc
