I purchased a ticket for Escape Room recently (which looks like a cross between Cube, Saw and maybe even a little bit of Cabin In The Woods) but I haven’t yet seen Aquaman-though I caught Bumblebee, which is pretty good. And that’s saying something for a Transformers movie-and short of Netflix or DVD, have no […]
I’ve stated my concerns about Marvel Television’s The Punisher recently in reference to the teaser trailer released just a day or so ago and my feelings haven’t at all changed with the release of the full trailer. In other words Jon Bernthal is a great Punisher though I get the feeling this series is not […]
2004’s The Chronicles of Riddick was a movie that betting person would have assumed was a sure thing. David Twohy was not only returning to direct–he helmed Pitch Black, the movie that propelled Vin Diesel to stardom–but the sequel would expand upon the ideas introduced in the first movie in new and interesting ways. And…it […]
With a second season of Marvel’s The Punisher (as well as a third of Jessica Jones) coming I’m mildly apprehensive about it’s chances. Not because of issues of watchability–though all the Marvel series on Netflix tend to run three episodes too many–but because of what from the outside looks like some sort of power struggle […]
Two hours ago Netflix’s Stranger Things announced the date of the third season of it’s breakout hit, Stranger Things. And that date is…July 4, 2019.
I like to reward innovation whenever I can, and it goes without saying that sometimes when you take a chance things don’t always work out as planned. Then again, it takes cojones to do something seemingly counterintuitive yet believe in it enough to see it through (that doesn’t apply to the DCEU under Zach Snyder […]
That’s perhaps a bit hyperbolic, though not by much because the Bandersnatch episode of Black Mirror a particularly perplexing one from the perspective of reviews because it’s supposedly ‘Choose Your Own Adventure’ movie. Which, as I understand it, means that no matter how many times you watch the episode, it will not always proceed the […]
You might be saying to yourself: ‘Wtf!?’ ‘Mysterio’ doesn’t start with an ‘A?’ Ah! But when you think about it, Mysterio is one of the most awesome villains in Spidey’s rogues gallery, so it’s a fitting accolade. Created in 1964 by Steve Ditko and Stan Lee, Mysterio first appeared in The Amazing Spider-Man #13 and […]
If you enjoyed Netflix’s Bird Box as much as I did, you likely thought that it would have been improved if they had shown the monster. Well, according to Susanne Bier, Eric Heisserer and Sandra Bullock they actually shot a scene where the monsters were revealed. And let’s say that things did not go quite […]
According to Wikipedia a bandersnatch is a creature that appears in a novel (Through The Looking Glass) and a poem (The Hunting of the Snark)by Lewis Carroll. While never described in detail, the bandersnatch supposedly has ‘a long neck and snapping jaws’ and is ferocious and extraordinarily fast. From what I can tell from the […]
