Henry Bevan on why female representation in superhero movies needs to evolve… The X-Men: Apocalypse billboard featuring Oscar Issac’s Apocalypse choking Jennifer Lawrence’s Mystique has created a lot of negative noise. Actress/activist Rose McGowan called the billboard out for its “casual violence against women” and Fox has apologised for its tone-deafness. Flickering Myth’s Kirsty Capes articulately argues […]
The Top 100 Your Sinclair ZX Spectrum Games: #80 – Sir Lancelot
From yesterday’s detailed space adventure of Dark Star we turn to Number #80 in the Your Sinclair Top 100 and it’s very much a depart from the scenes we witnessed yesterday. In another game which could easily be labelled as a Manic Miner clone, we open the portcullis on Sir Lancelot. Sir Lancelot was published […]
The Top 100 Your Sinclair ZX Spectrum Games: #81 – Dark Star
After being firmly grounded in the Hyperaction’s mazes, we now take to the stars once again with Design Design’s Dark Star which arrives at No. 81 in the Your Sinclair Top 100. According to the World of Spectrum the game was supposedly inspired by John Carpenter and Dan O’Bannon’s film of the same name, though anybody who […]
Why Rose McGowan is wrong about that X-Men: Apocalypse image
Kirsty Capes on why Rose McGowan is wrong about that X-Men: Apocalypse image… I’m sure most of the internet / Marvel fandom has seen Rose McGowan’s rant about a rather unseemly X-Men: Apocalypse promo shot over the last couple of days. If you haven’t, here’s a quick run-down of what happened: Rose McGowan, of 90s […]
The Top 100 Your Sinclair ZX Spectrum Games: #82 – Hyperaction
From one strategy game to another, as we arrive at Hyperaction, No. #82 from Silversoft. A puzzle game that upon first appearance you may despis, but after a few further rounds, this could become one of your firm favourites. Hyperaction was created by Iain Christopher Hayward, Jay Derrett back in 1984. Initially Hyperaction seems like a […]
Game of Thrones: The Bear and how he may be made Fair
Major spoilers for Game of Thrones Season 6 Episode 7 ‘The Broken Man’… You knew something was going on when Game of Thrones this week gave us its first ‘pre-credits’ sequence, essentially, which introduced not just Ian McShane for a special guest appearance but reintroduced someone almost nobody expected to see again (well, unless you’re […]
The DC Films train has left the station, let’s make the best of it!
Tony Black on the DC Extended Universe… Another day, another reshuffle at DC Comics in terms of their burgeoning DC Films department (or the DCU). Not a fortnight after Geoff Johns was drafted in on the creative side, alongside Jeff Berg working the corporate end, now it appears Warner Bros are taking more steps to […]
Exclusive Interview: Legendary director Garry Marshall on Mother’s Day, holiday films and memories of Robin Williams
With his new film Mother’s Day set for release in the UK this Friday (June 10th), Flickering Myth’s Scott J. Davis sat down (well, on the phone at least) to chat with legendary director Garry Marshall (Overboard, Pretty Woman) to discuss his latest effort, some of his most famous projects, and working with the late Robin Williams. […]
The Top 100 Your Sinclair ZX Spectrum Games: #83 – Football Manager
It takes a steely nerve to put a curly-haired, bearded chap smiling on the cover of something and then expect it to sell well. In truth this only really happens once a decade it being Bob Ross’ (Deceased) turn the decade before. However when Kevin Toms appeared, smiling on the cover of his Football Manager […]
The Top 10 Greatest ZX Spectrum Tunes Ever!
Going through the Top 100 Your Sinclair games [follow the countdown here] I’ve become aware of the rather brilliant – and also dire – tunes that were designed around the games – some hidden amongst levels, but most placed in a prominent spot as the game’s main theme.
