Welcome to The Roommate. Meanwhile Elliott explains the avant garde […]
The gang’s all here! What power could draw all of the increasingly busy Floppers to assemble in one place? Could it be… MAGIC? Perhaps, if we’re talking the magic of Nic Cage.

Hey, you know what’s literally never been terrible? A movie based on a video game. And it can only help if it’s a transparent stylistic cash-in on the Pirates of the Caribbean franchise, right?
