I was in on the ground floor of The Accountant. The action movie starring Ben Affleck as a brilliant accountant (who is also an incredible action hero) was just my kind of silly. “It’s sort of like John Wick meets a version of Good Will Hunting where Affleck and Matt Damon decided to switch roles,” I wrote in my review of the film from 2016.The Accountant did reasonably well in theaters, but people really appreciated it (yup) on home video and cable television — to the point that we are now, eight years later, getting The Accountant 2 — or, as it’s spelled in the onscreen title, The Accountant…

In 2018, Obsidian Entertainment was acquired by Microsoft and “Avowed” is its first big AAA game under the Xbox Game Studios banner. The studio is best known for creating sprawling RPGs like “Fallout: New Vegas” and “The Outer Worlds,” where players have many choices on how they want to design their main character, approach quests, and tackle the world. “Avowed” very much has those same qualities. It’s a dense fantasy RPG filled with memorable side quests and character companions, along with quite a bit of combat variety that keeps gameplay fresh. “Avowed” takes place in Eora, the same world as…

“Balance is key,” says Mr. Miyagi in the original “Karate Kid,” and it’s an ethos that Netflix (and formerly YouTube Red)’s long-running cult continuation “Cobra Kai” has long struggled to achieve. The fact that a show like this—sprung from a scrappy but novel idea from creators Josh Heald, Jon Hurwitz, and Hayden Schlossberg to flip the legacyquel trend on its head—has managed six entire seasons of television, in a streaming era where most show struggle to get three, is like catching a fly with chopsticks: a borderline miracle. But “Cobra Kai”‘s cult success has also been its grandest challenge, struggling…

Artist Khaled Sabsabi was abruptly dropped as Australia’s 2026 Venice Biennale representative after a high-profile publication raised questions about a past work by him depicting a Hezbollah leader. The announcement was made by Creative Australia, the pavilion’s organizer, after work hours in Australia and did not outright mention the controversy. It described the decision to nix Sabasabi’s pavilion—which was announced just six days ago—as a “unanimous” one and said the decision applied to the exhibition’s “artistic team,” including curator Michael Dagostino. Creative Australia promised a review of the selection process. Related Articles “Creative Australia is an advocate for freedom of…

I’m always discussing and identifying some of the super powers that great artists have in their arsenal of artistic weapons. Ally Morgan is one of those artists who is lucky enough to have multiple superpowers, but in my opinion, first and foremost is her superpower to visually transmit ideas onto a visual artwork in such a way that the idea stops the viewer, mesmerizes the frontal lobe (which in men doesn’t fully develop until their 30s – sorry dudes) and reaches deep into the solar plexus of the mind.That’s a lot of art lingo… Ally says:”I’ve long been captivated by…
