'Percy Jackson' Series Greenlit On Disney+
For the past couple of years, author Rick Riordan has been heavily hinting that another cinematic take on his beloved Percy Jackson and the Olympians book series may be happening. Riordan’s book, Percy Jackson and The Olympians: The Lightning Thief was released in 2005 and started a multi-book series and sequel series that have excited readers for years, eagerly anticipating the next adventure with Percy Jackson, Annabelle Chase, Grover, and others as they navigate the world of re-imagined Greek and Roman ancient myths. In 2010, Fox 2000 Pictures created a film adaption of The Lightning Thief directed by Harry Potter director Chris Columbus and starring Logan Lerman as Percy, Brandon T. Jackson as Grover, and Alexandra Daddario as Annabelle Chase. The next film, Percy Jackson: Sea of Monsters, based on the second book in the series, Percy Jackson and the Olympians: The Sea of Monsters, followed suit in 2013, this time directed by Thor Freudenthal.
Culture SlatePublished 2 years ago in GeeksAll of Us Are Dead Offers More Than Just a Zombie Apocalypse
So here is the thing, last night I thought of watching recently launched Netflix show as it was trending in many countries including India where it was #1 on the list. I gave it a shot and it turned out to be so attention grabbing that I couldn't stop myself binge watching it. Actually it is a coming-of-age Korean streaming TV series about a zombie apocalypse occurring in a city. When it comes to delivering a sensational zombie genre movie or show, the Korean movie industry is unmatchable but this particular show brings more than that on the table.

Note From Me to You: I apologize my lovely ghouls and goblins for being away. Do blame my absence on the time consuming life of adulting! I’ve been hard at work with my 9-5 that had me on edge after the jab mandate. Aside from that Fiverr orders started to trickle in which I honestly feel like I could publish an article about regarding my experience writing on their platform so far (another time though). I also spent my absence enrolling in school, spending outrageously during the holidays, and mentally prepping myself for the loss of my grandmother. Thankfully, after a jarring trip to the hospital my grandmother is alive and well now and we're all making adjustments accordingly. I'm still getting the hang of being a full time online student and balancing both my work life and my side hustle, I am sure I'll get there eventually.

Tammy ReesePublished 2 years ago in GeeksIdeas For X-Men ‘97 Part 3
Previously I wrote two articles about ideas I think X-Men ‘97 should explore. The first focused what I thought were likely plots based on what occurred in the original series.The second speculated on how smaller parts of the show could be expanded.Finally I would like to write about characters who were noticeably absent in the original show and how I’d like to see them incorporated in X-Men ‘97.
Elliot from "Euphoria" is a problem!(opinion piece)
Have you seen the series "Euphoria"? If you have not, and plan to than reading this commentary will spoil your first experience. Therefore this is a fair warning for you. With that said I'll continue. One thing Euphoria likes to do a lot is test what you know, love, or even hate about a character. Which is one of the reasons I love and respect the series. Just like real life, you can never truly know a person, also like real life everyone wants to blame someone for something so that they can be seen as innocent again when the truth is no one is innocent. Moreover I also like the way that the show can easy convey emotions nonverbally so perfectly, it places you an majestic atmosphere where you get to experience that character's own personal little world, where it forces you to think, and feel ,not speak. Which on the other hand those same nonverbal responses can give you the wrong idea sometimes. Plus you have to admit the aesthetic is behind heavenly.
KaikamahinenaniPublished 2 years ago in GeeksVillainess Review: Mandy Bronson (Monk)
Hard to believe that this summer will mark the 20th anniversary of Monk, the long-running hit USA Network series that starred Tony Shalhoub as the titular Adrian Monk, a former police detective turned consultant--with an immense amount of phobias. I love this show immensely, it's an amazing series, it's made me a fan of Tony Shalhoub and his various co-stars (including Jason Gray-Stanford, who's done a few Lifetime films), and the show has featured an impressive group of villainesses, and I've written reviews about a few of them.

Memories of Magic: the Harry Potter "20th Anniversary: Return to Hogwarts"
Twenty years have happened more quickly than I ever guessed they would, but some things never change. The worldwide love for the Harry Potter books, films, and universe as a whole seems to have only grown stronger over the last 20 years since the first film debuted.
The Nerd HabitPublished 2 years ago in GeeksWentworth Prison
The worst villain I’ve ever seen in a book adaption on TV is Black Jack Randell (BJD). The episode starts with very ominous music as the credits show the episode title. This is when Jamie Fraser goes through his darkest moments. As he speaks to McQuarrie about last thoughts. As I watch this episode the fear in Jamie’s eyes shakes me to my core. As he struggles to fight off the redcoats you can see the fear he has for the hanging. Instead his fears turn into terrified when he sees Black Jack looking at him. Clearly he is having a panic attack while looking at the very man who flocked his back raw.
