Sonic the Hedgehog (2020)
“You are a weird little dude.” I’ve always tended to root for and to be a fan of the underdog, which is a fair description of Sonic the Hedgehog, a […]

Harley Quinn: Birds of Prey (2020)
“It was time for Gotham to meet the new Harley Quinn.” Ever the true New Yorker (or, in this comic inspired setting, the quintessential Gothamite), Harley Quinn (a dynamite Margot […]
