For some reason, this feels like a surreal year for me. There's a trend with my content record where I'll start with a consistent flow and then stagnate after March, with a few springs of content in the latter half of the year. One of the challenges is having a full-time job; I'll get an... Continue Reading →
The passing of Kevin Conroy is testament to the legacy some actors have as a definitive role. Hugh Jackman will always be Wolverine, Robert Downey Jr. is Iron Man, and to many, Kevin Conroy is the voice of Batman. Having voiced the Caped Crusader in Batman: The Animated Series and the Arkham games, Conroy is... Continue Reading →
I remember when learning about this movie's release. I was in the lunch hall at grad school and found an Honest Trailer about it and figured I wasn't missing anything. And in many ways, it's disappointing to look at it. Back in high school, I was a Mob aficionado; I'd watch documentaries about the Mob... Continue Reading →
"Hawkeye" was a fun show. It has great action and banter between Jeremy Renner and Hailee Steinfeld, and they have amazing chemistry. It also has fun supporting characters that flesh out the world. And then you have "Rogers: The Musical," which is a fun little feature to the MCU that feels like a break from... Continue Reading →
Do you ever watch a movie that feels like a pilot for a show? Not just like a Disney movie that ties to a Disney afternoon series. I'm talking about a movie marketed as a feature film, but when you watch it, it feels like it could work as a TV series. Well, this is... Continue Reading →
When "Lightyear" was first announced, I couldn't help but laugh at the idea. I made fun of the trend of origin stories for every character in Cruella (specifically with villains). But over time, I've been intrigued with the idea Pixar had. This wasn't the Buzz Andy owned, but rather, this is the Buzz Lightyear Andy... Continue Reading →
As I was planning to go see this, it was interesting to look back when I covered the first movie two years ago. It was the last movie I saw before the pandemic hit and it, like Detective Pikachu, are testaments to the changing attitude towards movies based on video games. And with the sequel...

Quick Heads Up: There will be spoilers for the finale for Moon Knight. I normally don't do spoilers but given that this is a Marvel show and the post-credit scenes, I wanted to cover my tracks. And so, we come to the end of the season. For a show that felt slow to get my... Continue Reading →
Before we begin, a quick note: I am not an expert on dissociative identity disorder, and I don’t pretend to be. So I apologize in advance for any faux pas made here and know that I will make an effort to rectify my ignorance moving forward. I had a lot of questions with the last... Continue Reading →
Before we begin, a quick note: I am not an expert on dissociative identity disorder, and I don’t pretend to be. So I apologize in advance for any faux pas made here and know that I will make an effort to rectify my ignorance moving forward. I said in the last episode review that the... Continue Reading →
Before we begin, I wanted to get take a minute to mention the real-life Quileute tribe whose culture was an inspiration for the show. While the films brought attention to the real-life town of Forks, Washington, the tribe hasn't seen the same benefit. And with that, I want to promote the Quileute Move to Higher...

Before we begin, a quick note: I am not an expert on dissociative identity disorder, and I don’t pretend to be. So I apologize in advance for any faux pas made here and know that I will make an effort to rectify my ignorance moving forward. Up until now, I was trying really hard to... Continue Reading →

Before we begin, a quick note: I am not an expert on dissociative identity disorder, and I don't pretend to be. So I apologize in advance for any faux pas made here and know that I will make an effort to rectify my ignorance moving forward. I'm not gonna lie, I forgot this show premiered.... Continue Reading →
James Gunn has seen a meteoric career takeoff in the past decade. The Troma alum has seen massive success with not only Guardians of the Galaxy, but with his DC foray with The Suicide Squad and Peacemaker. And with his star shining brighter than it ever got with Tromeo and Juliet, a lot more of... Continue Reading →
If you've been reading my The Book of Boba Fett reviews, you'll know that I've been vocal about my irritation with the show's (and the rest of modern Star Wars') overreliance on fan service and legacy characters. This show and The Bad Batch were shows that came in with interesting stories, but then got bogged... Continue Reading →
With the cliffhanger after the first spread of episodes, I was concerned; I was asking myself "How can that just be it?" But with the help of Wikipedia, my worries were eased, and I got myself prepared for the next few episodes. Following an encounter with Lord and Lady Briarwood (voiced by Matthew Mercer and...

And so, we come to the end of the season. And if I'm going to be honest, I wasn't too excited for it. Despite my best efforts to hope the show would tell a compelling story, the show didn't seem too interested in telling one. I cut them some slack when we first got Mando;... Continue Reading →
The mainstreaming of geek culture has been a rapid phenomenon. From video games to comics, I like seeing how much these once niche interests are becoming more popular puts a smile on my face. I'm always happy to connect with others through the shared language of pop culture. One such is through the tabletop role... Continue Reading →
Last week's episode was a nice refresher as someone who loved The Mandalorian. And as the gang war on Tatooine (from what we've gotten) builds up, I've been holding onto hope that the big fight will pay off. Well, there's one episode left; but this one didn't leave me with the highest hopes. Mando is... Continue Reading →
