Film & TV Reporter
Charles Pulliam-Moore is a Film & TV writer for The Verge focusing on genre entertainment and how disparate, fandom-specific conversations coalesce into what we know as "the discourse."
Before coming to The Verge, Charles wrote about comic books, labor, race and a multitude of other topics at io9 and Gizmodo, and his writing has also been featured on NPR's Code Switch blog.
When he isn't reading the source material for a piece or decompressing with a comfort horror movie, Charles is usually somewhere on his bike.

The Pokémon Company tried to make the perks (read: promo cards and merch) from its collaboration with the Van Gogh museum to be accessible to everyone. But it seems like scalpers have been swarming the exhibit in Amsterdam to snatch up cards, and forcing the museum to change its sales policy for the exclusive goodies. Good job, folks.

It can be really interesting to hear creators talk about how much money streaming studios like Netflix pour into their projects. But Scott Pilgrim Takes Off executive producer BenDavid Grabinski’s recent assertion to Empire magazine that the animated series would cost more than a “live-action” version of James Cameron’s Avatar raises more questions than it answers.
