I've had this Newspost in mind again since I saw Spider Man: No Way Home. That movie pushes the nostalgia buttons with abandon, to an extent I couldn't believe. To avoid having anything spoiled I rushed out to the theater to see it as soon as I could ...
Fountain of Nostalgia

Usually when we think about fairies, the mind goes to tiny beautiful girls with butterfly wings and a ton of sparkles. At their most threatening, we got the token fiesty Tinkerbell.
Or do we?
For me, the world of the fae and fairies is a fascinatingly surreal, dangerous, occult world ...

Bob Saget revolutionized home videos years before they could be instantly uploaded, streamed online, and go viral. Yes, that is right, Sunday nights in the nineties meant a new episode of “America’s Funniest Home Videos”, a show where home movie enthusiasts would send recorded copies ...
The Message in Stories
Tantz_Aerine at 12:00AM, Jan. 15, 2022
There is no story without a theme. Even when written without anything prepared in terms of a message, a story will always give people things to think about and messages drawn from how the story was set up and how it was resolved (if at all).

Characters and Backgrounds … and Compositing Different Styles
when I started putting my webcomic out I'd been drawing for most of my life already, and knew the characters and setting really well. The stories I would figure out as I went…and still do.

I kid, I just like the gif. But I do prefer prequels.
When are sequels and prequels great to do? What makes a great sequel or prequel?
I believe a lot of us think about expanding our stories, whether it’s in the form of a sequel or a prequel ...
ZOINKS! 13 Ghosts??
damehelsing at 12:00AM, Oct. 31, 2021
So, ladies and gents, friends and furries, yes, 13 Ghosts is the movie that haunted me as a child and to a point, still haunts me. I’ll never look at bathtubs the same.
