The 2010 science fiction action film directed by Joseph Kosinski, Tron: Legacy, was a box office hit. Starring Garrett Hedlund, Jeff Bridges, and Olivia Wilde, the film is a direct sequel to Tron (1982), and is directed by Steven Lisberger. Made 28 years after the first movie, Tron: Legacy made up in visuals and sound what it lacked in story. The movie was also nominated for an Oscar that year in the Best Sound Editing category, but lost to Richard King for Inception.

It has been nearly 10 years since Parks and Recreation (Parks and Rec. for short) closed up shop on its seven-season run. Despite an absence of almost a decade, the beloved NBC sitcom has remained prevalent in the pop culture sphere, garnering a massive following through streaming outlets such as Netflix and Peacock. And as with any top-rated show, the arrival of cool merch was inevitable, yielding dozens of fabulous Parks and Rec. products for hardcore collectors to get their hands on.
One of the first companies to jump on the opportunity of Parks and Rec. merchandise was Funko, the creator of the ubiquitous Pop! line of vinyl figures. Funko has produced a multitude of Parks and Rec. figures of characters from all across Pawnee, including icons such as Leslie Knope and Ron Swanson, to very specific alter egos like Burt Macklin. Needless to say,...

This post contains spoilers for "Futurama" season 11 episode 8.
On top of its hilarious main ensemble, "Futurama" is home to a stable of eccentric recurring characters, ones who could only exist in a science-fiction comedy like this. One of my favorites is Matcluck, better known as the Hyper-Chicken. Matcluck (voiced by Maurice Lamarche) is a human-sized, blue-feathered bird and the Planet Express crew's go-to attorney.
The Hyper-Chicken's most recent appearance was the latest "Futurama" episode, "Zapp Gets Canceled." After the eponymous starship captain is court-martialed, Matcluck both defends and prosecutes him (on behalf of plaintiff Kif Kroker). The lawyer eventually declares his own client guilty, and he's thereby sentenced to both rounds of sensitivity training and to wear a Scarlet C (for "canceled"). This pseudo-win is more of a victory than many other cases the Hyper-Chicken has tried in the past.
How did the "Futurama" writers come up with such an absurd character?...
