Maze Runner: The Scorch Trials - Caravan Of Garbage
Maze Runner: The Scorch Trials - Caravan Of Garbage Nov 5, 2026 21:23 After a brisk one-year wait, The Maze Runner returned with its second entry, The Scorch Trials. And it's shocking to some, but not others, the huge drop in quality in terms of narrative. The boys from the maze are dumped into a wider world of baffling conspiracies and various encampments as they hunt for... a cure for the newly revealed zombie virus, or safety, or maybe the answers to another

The Maze Runner - Caravan of Garbage
The Maze Runner - Caravan of Garbage Oct 29, 2026 24:30 The 2010's were absolutely choked with movie adaptations of young adult dystopian novels where the world is bad but there's a special girl or guy and also there's a sci-fi twist but also an evil organisation or government. And let's be honest they didn't always work with a few notable expections, one of which being The Hunger Games. But we looked at those already so we're g

Street Fighter: The Legend of Chun-Li - Caravan Of Garbage
Street Fighter: The Legend of Chun-Li - Caravan Of Garbage Oct 22, 2026 30:26 You can blame the MCU for giving the good people over at Street Fighter HQ the idea they could make a series of prequels leading up to an actual Street Fighter movie. Street Fighter: The Legend of Chun-Li from 2009 tells the origin of Chun Li as played by Kristin Kreuk as she takes on the villaneous Shadaloo headed up by the always Irish M. Bison. Hilarious and baffling movie all round with an inc

Street Fighter II: The Animated Movie - Caravan Of Garbage
Street Fighter II: The Animated Movie - Caravan Of Garbage Oct 15, 2026 21:23 1994 gave us two video game to movie adaptations of Street Fighter, Street Fighter starring Jean-Claude Van Damme, which, although fondly remembered now, was much maligned at the time for being cheesy and inaccurate, and the anime adaptation Street Fighter 2: The Animated Movie. The second of which adheres much closer to the video games and managed to turn a tidy profit despite a limited release.

Blade Runner 2049 - Caravan Of Garbage
Blade Runner 2049 - Caravan Of Garbage Oct 8, 2026 32:50 There are very few legacy sequels that match or potentially surpass the original, often they end up being tired retreads of what came before. Blade Runner 2049 is one of those few exceptions, coming 35 years later and helmed by Denis Villeneuve it reintroduces us to the ruined future with updated elements like more compliant Replicants, AI girlfriends, horrendous poverty and Harrison Ford in a t-s

Soldier - Caravan Of Garbage
Soldier - Caravan Of Garbage Oct 1, 2026 29:26 In between Blade Runner, original Blade Runner and Blade Runner 2049 there exists a movie positioned snugly in the middle, set in Ridley Scott's groundbreaking universe. 1998's Soldier, starring Kurt Russell and directed by Paul WS Anderson, was written by Blade Runner scribe David Webb Peoples and incorporates many elements from the 1982 original directed by Ridley Scott. It's mostly small visual
