The Walking Dead has been a successful comic-to-screen adaptation. Back when the show started, in 2010, the comics-on-film trend had not hit high gear.
High gear wasn't far off, though. Iron Man had already come out and was huge, and the Marvel Cinematic Universe was soon going to take ...

Cultural Significance
Tantz_Aerine at 12:00AM, Sept. 26, 2020
So the other day I watched a very interesting video about the new Mulan movie. It was by a Chinese person, explaining why several things were done in a way that is inherently alien to the Chinese culture.
I also recall that the original Mulan was not a hit in ...

kawaiidaigakusei at 12:00AM, Sept. 23, 2020
Imagine a superhero team that combats negative forces, now imagine that same group of superheroes all being part of the same family tree: the Impossible Family. Surprisingly, the Impossibles have formed some enemies, including DeathQuake, whose main goal is to destroy their whole family. The Impossibles are about to go ...

Wounded Characters
Tantz_Aerine at 12:00AM, July 25, 2020
There is a reason why in fanfiction archives there's a whole category of stories called “hurt/comfort”, where one of the main characters of a specific IP is injured, and others (usually an unlikely person or whoever the author is shipping with the injured one) have to take care ...
A Binary Approach to Motivation
Tantz_Aerine at 12:00AM, July 11, 2020
I've talked a lot about motivations in my articles. And how could I not? My scientific field aside, what makes us behave in certain manners or way is a question that has occupied entire schools of thought in psychology, philosophy, political science, even AI and (bio)chemistry.
There are ...
