The new animated film "Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse" is going to aggravate hunters of Easter eggs. The sheer overwhelming volume of Spider-Man references, callbacks, and cameos will cause even the most stalwart, deep-cut Marvel Comics fan to go a little cross-eyed. There is a hilarious moment when Miles Morales (Shameik Moore) arrives at an interdimensional Spider-Man headquarters, populated entirely by thousands of Spider-People from other dimensions, and the camera pans over a crowd of them, introducing each with a miniature on-screen chyron. In the span of about four seconds, about a hundred chyrons speed past the audience's eyes. Sorry, Easter egg hunters. We're deliberately giving you more information than your brain can process.
Throughout the hundreds of Spider-Cameos, however, there is going to be one most people might recognize. As the various Spider-People speed through various dimensions, one might catch a glimpse of background TV screens and news broadcasts, depicting...

Jones made the bizarre declaration during an InfoWars broadcast last week. Jones — a tireless conspiracy theorist who insists that freedom loving Americans are under assault — declared that Kanye West had been turned into a pawn by a tyrannical elite whose dark ambitions make “Hitler look like a lightweight.”

Though this may come as a surprise to the passerbys and celebrity guests that appear on “The Eric Andre Show,” there is a plan behind Andre’s cult hit parody of talk show television.
Yes, it’s a show where Andre has dragged a mattress labeled “Bed Bugs!!” through crowded city streets, and it’s also a show where Andre has ripped his desk apart, stripped naked, and jumped in a cold bathtub during an interview with Public Enemy co-founder Flava Flav. “The Eric Andre Show” is constantly teetering on the edge of madness, and five seasons in, Andre couldn’t be happier about keeping everyone who participates in the show guessing.
The latest season of “The Eric Andre Show” premiered on Adult Swim earlier this month. Four years have passed since the show’s fourth season — the lengthy gap between seasons was due to Andre dedicating time for his...

Wizards of the Coast, best known as the company that publishes the popular fantasy-themed trading card game Magic: The Gathering, recently announced it would be ending its longtime partnership with artist Terese Nielsen due to the latter’s affinity with the alt-right.
For reference, Magic: The Gathering consists of hundreds of thousands of cards, each of which is fitted with astounding artwork. The company typically does not produce this artwork in-house, but outsources it to a number of independent creators. Nielsen, who had been designing cards for Wizards since the early 1990s, was one of their earliest and most prolific freelancers.
For most of her employment, Nielsen was on good terms with the company. However, in 2018, fans began noticing the artist was following an alarming amount of conspiracy theorists on Twitter, nearly all of whom are affiliated with the alt-right. From white nationalists like Stefan Molyneux and Sandy Hook-deniers such as Alex Jones,...
