Xbox Game Pass ended April in a big way, offering up a couple day-one releases and some bonus free games to various tiers, and May is already off to a great start. However, even if you aren’t a Game Pass member, you currently have access to a $60 game that’s 100% free. You don’t need Game Pass or any gimmicks. All you need is an Xbox and an internet connection. The news was shared on the official Xbox website, which revealed multiple free games for those with an Xbox Game Pass subscription. However, one title is free for all, but…

Memory flickers like an old television left on too late. Images blur, and voices get lost under the crackle of static. Zeshaan Younus’ I’ve Seen All I Need to See begins here, in a dimly-lit limbo between recall and reminiscence. It feels lost, intimate, almost intrusive, as if we’re watching something not meant for us. From its outset, reflection isn’t just a theme – it’s a structure.After the sudden death of her estranged sister Indiana (Rosie McDonald), Parker (Renee Gagner) returns to her Arizona hometown and is searching for answers. What she finds instead is more abstract: the creeping weight of loss and its grasp…

Junior VP are Ross, Steven, and Andy — a Glasgow trio drawing inspiration from US college rock and indie/emo traditions. Their name nods to the distinctly American title “Junior Vice President,” a tongue-in-cheek tribute to the bands that shaped their sound.Blending pop hooks with gnarly guitar textures and dynamic arrangements, Junior VP strike a balance between accessibility and edge. The result feels nostalgic without being derivative — broad in appeal yet far from safe.Since first releasing music in December 2025, they’ve quickly built momentum with widespread independent radio play, BBC Introducing Scotland airtime, a growing fanbase, and a shortlist spot for…

As one of the earliest successful streaming services, Netflix has played a significant part in creating “binge-watch” culture, particularly as a result of how the streaming service releases its shows all at once. While the platform has plenty of long-running shows that can keep you entertained for weeks at a time, its catalog also features several great series that are practically designed for a weekend watch, including some true modern masterpieces. Whether you’re looking for a short and sweet miniseries or an ongoing show that’s still entertaining enough to keep you engaged through multiple seasons, Netflix’s library boasts an abundance…

“The June 1967 defeat was tantamount to an alarm bell that aroused the dormant Arab consciousness from its long slumber; it awakened the Arabs from their dreaming, shaking their faith in all the nationalistic slogans and bringing into question the ability of the military regimes to fulfill the duties they had taken unto themselves and had so loftily and widely declared.”This was Tunisian filmmaker Nouri Bouzid’s introduction to his analysis of post-1967 Arab cinema in ​‘New Realism in Arab Cinema: the Defeat-Conscious Cinema’. The loss of the Arab armies against Israel that year, and the ensuing disillusionment with Pan-Arab unity,…

What makes a movie a “classic”?Time is certainly important. No matter how popular in theaters or on streaming, nothing released in 2026 will be called a classic for at least a decade or two (at least not without a qualifier like “instant” thrown into the mix). Quality also matters; nobody calls Gigli or Battlefield Earth a classic (at least not without a qualifier like “so-bad-its-good” thrown into the mix). Awards help too, at least insofar as they help build consensus among viewers.One thing that doesn’t make a movie a classic, somewhat paradoxically, is how many tickets it sells in theaters. Sometimes an eventual classic is also a major box-office…
