There’s something almost quaint about One Night Only being sold on the promise of sex. Will Gluck’s latest romantic comedy takes place in an alternate United States where premarital sex has been outlawed under a government decree known as “The Mandate.” For 364 days of the year, unmarried citizens are expected to keep their hands…
The 2026 Good Things lineup is here, with this being the earliest lineup drop in the festival’s history. I’ll be honest, we were slightly off with our predictions but we’re far from disappointed. Leading the lineup are nu-metal favourites Limpbizkit, who are no strangers to Good Things, having co-headlined in 2023. Joining them are pop-punk…
There’s something almost rebellious about a comedy as proudly, aggressively stupid as Stop! That! Train! In an era where even the lightest studio entertainment can feel burdened by franchise mythology or the need to justify its own existence, Adam Shankman’s disaster-movie spoof has a refreshingly uncomplicated ambition: make people laugh.

Now, with the Revelations DLC, id Software returns to double down on that medieval carnage. Far from a light, cash-in expansion, Revelations delivers a tight, punchy, and surprisingly robust addition…
