Yen Press Hayashi’s frank, guileless demeanor quietly draws the attention of classmates and strangers as he counts all the stairs in school, photographs street signs, and dries sweet potatoes on the classroom balcony. In a world shaped by conformity, Hayashi is refreshingly and unapologetically true to himself. Conversely, Nikaidou has worked very hard to perfect

As recently as September 2020 David Tennant topped a Radio Times poll of favourite Doctors.

As a logline, it almost sounds like a comedy—the type of gonzo horror-laugh hybrid Troma would’ve made back in the day.

The Green Knight is the realization of a vision David Lowery first had at eight years old. Sort of.

Lately, there have been several releases that feature characters who work in radio or have a love for listening to or producing podcasts.

The very first Marvel movie (no, the assorted TV movies of the 1970s and 1980s don’t count, nor does the 1944 Captain America movie serial), 1986’s Howard the Duck turns 35 on August 1.
