[Some minor spoilers]   Most know that I’m a huge Punisher fan. He’s one of my favorite Marvel heroes and I’ve been reading the books off and on since I was quite young, but once Garth Ennis took over the character I made sure to read almost everything I could get my hands on. I … Continue reading Punisher: Cutting Into Frank

[A godly spoiler Alert]   As a kid reading comics I was mostly into Spider-Man, X-Men, Batman, and Image stuff, but never got into the Avengers other than Iron Man until I was much older. This held especially for Hulk and Thor as characters, which I always had to ask my brother about, so it … Continue reading Thor: Ragnarok – Thunderstruck

Not Optional. I use that term a lot when I talk about films. What exactly does it mean? Simply put, when I say a film is Not Optional, it means that you need to check this film out. It's an experience. Now, these aren't your Casablancas or Citizen Kane's, but these are films that are visceral, fun, and usually … Continue reading Not Optional: The Guest

So I just finished the season finale for Game of Thrones and wanted something similar, but I picked up In the Name of the King: A Dungeon Siege Tale by accident, and suddenly I’m reconsidering my DVD collection and a few life choices. Admitting I actually own this thing is the first step, but I … Continue reading In the Name of the King: A Dungeon Siege Tale – God Save Burt Reynolds

[Very minor spoilers] I’ll attempt to write this review without comparing the 2017 version to the 1990 original miniseries, but that is a bit difficult because of how much I loved that production. I saw IT when I was too young to do so and couldn’t look away. It’s great, for all of the right … Continue reading IT: Good Makeup Hides Flaws

It’s all been building up to this, the gigantic crossover on the small screen, where Marvel’s street level heroes face their biggest challenge, in a rumble that will stretch across all five boroughs. Each character got their own series to establish themselves, and Daredevil was special enough to get a second season before all of … Continue reading The Defenders: Brawl for it All

I’ve been a huge Spider-Man fan since I was young, from the comics, cartoons, and toys, I was hooked on the Web-Head and wanted more of his adventures, so the movies are always a true delight for me. Yes, I know that Spider-Man 2 is great, that first one is truly memorable for me even … Continue reading Spider-Man: Homecoming Review: Web of Memories

I knew it would happen eventually. I would walk out of a DC movie without feeling the wrinkles on my face forming their own new creases as I tried to think about how it could have been salvaged. Since the travesty of Green Lantern though, this is the best thing Warner Brothers have been able … Continue reading Wonder Woman: The Hero WB Needed

Let me get this out of the way: it’s good, not as great as the first one, while managing to be more character driven. Now… [Minor spoiler warnings] What a ride though. For anyone worrying that it was going to be Thor 2, Avengers 2, or the dreaded Iron-Man 2, relax, but yes, for every … Continue reading Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2: Far Out Trash Panda
