This week we're looking back at the year that was, 2016. The movies, video games, anime, comics, manga and other things that made us happy and sad. We loved Don't Breathe because it set new standards for horror movies. Fantastic Beasts made us happy (which was unexpected). Doctor Strange gets a good mention - did it start the rise of sci-fi and the beginning of the end for superheroes? Rogue One and Dead Pool are also on our should-watch list. Then there's Your Name. Everyone needs to see Your Name. As for games, Pokemon Sun and Moon were both great, but Dan was disappointed by Pokemon Go.
