V Wars is a new horror series on Netflix that introduces a novel way global warming will change our lives. Namely. due to the effects of climate change dormant bacteria– actually prions–are reanimated, and begin to convert humans into vampires (!?). And I’m not a science guy and my only knowledge about prions comes from […]
Damon Lindelof’s interpretation–truth be told I’m not at all sure what to call it–of Alan Moore’s and Dave Gibbons’ Watchmen is a pretty interesting bird. And as much flack as Lindelof gets for Star Trek: Into Darkness and Prometheus (relatively little of which was actually deserved) you can’t say that the man is afraid to […]

There’s been no announcement to that effect, but the writing’s on the wall. First Swamp Thing was cancelled before it’s first EPISODE! And now Stargirl, a new series coming to DC Universe, […]

She’s a thief, a bit of a liar and has a really irritating tendency of talking to the camera, less a […]
Michael Bay isn’t what I call a subtle director, and nothing about the ‘Visit Italy’ trailer for his upcoming 6 Underground indicates that that’s a mistaken impression. And that’s the problem because–at least for me–Bay being Bay isn’t terribly interesting. What is is that he’s working with Rhett Reese, Paul Wernick (Zombieland, Deadpool, Deadpool 2) […]
