review – Arguing With Myself

Party! Pizza Movie! Reviewed

There is a lack of full-blown comedies today. Not to say there aren’t any comedies out there. What I mean to say is, there are movies with funny situations or some amalgam of comedy and blank. Rarely will you have a straight-up comedy. If they DO claim to be one, they just aren’t that funny.Continue reading “Party! Pizza Movie! Reviewed”

Spider-Man: Brand New Day Review

It’s hard to avoid spoilers when it comes to movies these days. Especially comic book movies. Everyone and their cellar-dwelling, wannabe casting agent selves, throwing their two cents in where it doesn’t belong. Analyzing every name, face, on-set photo, you name it! All for what?

Aliens & Predators & Synths, Oh My!

I can’t tell you the last time I got excited for Alien…anything. For me, the franchise wasn’t a strong go-to for rewatch. Not after the first two entries.

The Fantastic Four: First Steps

With the fifth attempt at Marvel’s First Family finally hitting theaters, our “Super-Fantastic Summer” is now complete! And let me tell YOU, it was well worth the wait. I’d like to say for thematic reasons, this is the FOURth theatrical release. I mean, technically, Roger Corman’s Fantastic Four never got an “official” release.

Tom Segura Has Bad Thoughts

Tom Segura is one of the best comedians in the industry, today. His humor and the way he tells his jokes are uniquely his own. My brother (who has his finger on the pulse of comedy) introduced me to his brand of comedy a while back and…I. Was. HOOKED. I think it began with hisContinue reading “Tom Segura Has Bad Thoughts”
