New Gods: Yang Jian wants to be an epic animated Chinese martial art fantasy film. It really does. Unfortunately, all it has going for it are some pretty visuals and nicely choreographed fight scenes in the first half of the film. It never rises above mediocrity due to a long-winded, confusing, and
Vash the Stampede faces off against his twin brother Millions Knives in Trigun Stampede Ep. 3 "Bright Light, Shine through the Darkness". If you're thinking "Hang on, doesn't this seem a bit early for a final boss fight?", then you'd be correct. Because the fight goes just about as well as you'd

Just like the Street Fighter movie of the 90s, it's been quite a while since someone has tried to bring the video game back to the big screen. We had Mortal Kombat II earlier this year (which led to quite the rivalry between the two casts), which made the more absurd and video game-like features
Few studios have set such a precedent within their own genre quite like Laika Studios. With each painstakingly crafted story, they consistently find new ways to level up stop motion animation and push the limits of what can be accomplished. Stop motion is already a marvelous feat of patience and
