The Naked Truth: A Very Serious Exploration of Spoof Movies
With the new Naked Gun movie being billed as the glorious return of the classic spoof comedies of the late ’80s and ’90s, I was naturally excited to see it the moment it hit cinemas. And, indeed, I went, laughed my way through the whole thing, and thought to myself: “Yes, it really is back!” Then, somewhere between the credits and the parking lot, another thought crept in: What exactly is back? And why did it leave in the first place?

Shadow In Sonic Racing Animation
I will be discussing the trailer for Sonic Racing Cross Worlds, so spoilers ahead. The idea of Shadow beating Sonic in the racing game was a great idea. I know the game is named after the protagonist, and Sonic is known as the fastest thing alive. But the fact that Shadow won makes perfect sense. Because, if you recall, in both the film and video game, Shadow always has his own way of getting from place to place, either by running thanks to his air shoes or a motorcycle, also known as the Dark Rider, or in this case, a custom-made racing car. Shadow has some disadvantages in speed because, according to gaming lore, Shadow is a genetically engineered bio-merge hedgehog, thanks to the engineering of Dr. Eggman (also known as Gerold Robotnik) and the DNA of Black Doom, who is Shadow's biological father. Talk about an awkward Father's Day. However, Shadow has to limit his energy, unlike Sonic, who has unlimited energy, and Sonic was born alive. Shadow was not, in fact, he doesn't even have a mom, unless you count a test tube, which sounds messed up.

In Praise of Geeks
M Mehran When Ella was in middle school, she tried to hide the fact that she loved comic books. She stuffed them into her backpack under math worksheets and only read them late at night with a flashlight. At school, kids tossed around the word “geek” like an insult, and Ella didn’t want to be the target.

The World of Geeks: More Than Just a Label
M Mehran For a long time, being called a “geek” felt like a label meant to isolate or tease. But for people like Ethan Parker, it was a badge of honor. Geeks weren’t just people obsessed with comics, video games, or technology—they were the dreamers, the creators, the thinkers, and the innovators shaping the future.
