Nintendo recently took advantage of the 35th anniversary of its central property Super Mario Bros. to launch a rollout of new and revisited titles featuring everyone's favorite plumber. The latest release, appropriately titled Super Mario Bros. 35, has been out for a week now. Pitched as a "competitive 35-player online battle where the last Mario standing wins," the title tasks players with navigating the original game's courses and defeating enemies along the way; any enemies you bop will be sent to your competitors' screens to complicate things. It'll only be available to play on Nintendo Switch …

I streamed the Sam Worthington thriller Fractured after its premiere last week on Netflix, and while it didn't have one of the world's great twist endings, it got me thinking about other twisty films.

If there’s one thing we learned from HBO’s Westworld, it’s that it’s phenomenally hard to pull one over on modern audiences, no matter how artfully made your material is. That’s not to say it can’t be done (see Shutter Island or The Prestige for example of recent successes), but with more than a century of cinema history, meta post-modernism, and social media hive mind on their side, audiences are sharper and more perceptive than ever; hip to all the narrative tricks that filmmakers use to obfuscate truth.
