I went to the movie theater five times in the month of June.  I neglected to see the most recent addition to the Transformers franchise and The Mummy.  Mostly because the former looked both ridiculous and terrible and the latter just looked plain terrible.  No regrets. Captain Underpants:  The First Epic Movie is based on a cherished book series from my childhood.  Was it as amazing … [Read more…]

I made a total of six treks to my local cinema in the month of May.  All in all, not the best month.  Nothing thoroughly impressed me.  On top of that, a film disappointed me and another was trash.  Not gonna take long to get to those two, so let’s begin. How to Be a … [Read more…]

I went into Wonder Woman with a sense of hopeful skepticism.  Unfortunately there’s been a plethora of recreational outrage articles and think pieces trying to divide us along lines of race, gender, and fandom.  Women-only showings, movie’s not feminist enough, Gail is or isn’t a person of color, you name it and the chimps will … [Read more…]

I set a challenge for myself a couple years ago, to watch all the Star Trek series and movies in chronological order, and then review them for you all. I had already watched pretty much all of them over the years, in the order they were released, but it had been sporadic. I really wanted … [Read more…]

I realize I’m a month late, but I have a good reason.  I got my Switch at the start of April.  And I’m a huge Zelda fan.  Understandable?  Yes.  I went to the theaters eight times in the month of March where I saw one movie again.  April only gave me four theater trips. MARCH: … [Read more…]

In my quest to find new books I happened to stumble upon a couple of images from a book called Sky Doll going around on Twitter.  At the time I had no idea that it had been around for 17 years already, but got lucky enough to spot it and get it added to my … [Read more…]

Recently Alterna Comics announced their #BringingBackNewsprint initiative to release newsprint comics priced between $1.00 and $1.50.  Demand for four of the new titles was so high that the print run will be extended, and not with a second printing, but an increase in initial runs from the printer.  The four titles getting an extended printing and … [Read more…]

Marvel sales are taking a hit, and have been for awhile.  In January of 2017, while Marvel holds the #1 spot with U.S.Avengers the rest of the top ten are 6 DC titles, one from Image and two more Marvel books.  In the past Marvel always held the high ground among the big two, but … [Read more…]

Before our brave western bloggers and social media activists went all Matt Damon to protect our poor Asian brethren from the whitewashing of Danny Rand they asked a more important question; was casting Scarlett Johansson in Ghost in the Shell racist?  It seems pretty cut and dry right?  The story is set in Japan.  The … [Read more…]

  Been a busy few weeks, folks.  Sorry about the delay.  Six trips to the theater in the month of February, although I only saw four new movies.  There were several movies I had a small interest in seeing I decided not to bother with.  Two of which came out the weekend after Valentine’s Day.  … [Read more…]
