End of an Era: 25YL to Shutdown After 9 Years
It was February of 2017 when I picked up a copy of John Thorne’s book, “The Essential Wrapped in Plastic”. My younger son was a toddler at the time (he is now a film savant- time truly flies) and I read Mr. Thorne’s book while my son took naps. I read the book while on […] More
Gotta Insight?: Review of Twin Peaks: The Return, Part 8 by Jeff WooD
Jeff Wood’s recently-released Twin Peaks: The Return, Part 8 is far and away the most intriguing and intellectually rigorous book on the David Lynch-Mark Frost series in a long time. Stylistically, Wood has created a truly exhilarating read that makes your eyes and mind speed along like you’ve had just the right amount of wonderful […] More
‘Marty Supreme’ Gives You No One to Root For
In some films, you root for the hero. With others you cheer for the anti-hero. Then, in a few, the villain becomes the hero. But what about when there isn’t a hero? When there’s no one you can root for? When the main character is a narcissist and never evolves past his ego driven choices? […] More

‘Avatar: Fire and Ash’ is Repetitive but Enjoyable

‘Zootopia 2’ Lays on the Drama
Zootopia is a family-friendly film, even though it deals with heavy subjects like prejudice, bullying, bias, and the like. For the most part, the movie doesn’t come across as overtly dramatic, at least not in a super dark way. However, most people are probably unaware of the film’s original script. Predators in the original Zootopia were forced […] More

Scooby-Doo: Neil Fanning on Door-Opening Moments, How to “Scoobify” Words, and Stunts!
As a fan of horror, comedy, musicals, and any combination thereof…is it any surprise to anyone that I love Scooby-Doo? The answer should be as obvious as my orange shirt as I interview Neil Fanning: the actor, writer, producer, stunt performer, stunt safety supervisor, voice actor, and more who starred in Scooby-Doo (2002) and Scooby-Doo […] More

Believing in the Unknown
Last year saw the release of Unknown 9: Awakening, the debut videogame of Reflector Entertainment.

Wicked: For Good Dips Slightly in Quality
It’s already been a year since the release of Wicked: Part One, and hype is stronger than ever for the conclusion to the mega-hit two act musical. While the novel will sadly never get a direct adaptation (see my upcoming article on book vs. musical to see why), act 2 of the film should be […] More
Starrcade ’87: The Opposition’s Failed Strike
The NWA and Jim Crockett Promotions in 1987: after a hot summer for the Alliance with the Great American Bash tour doing strong attendance numbers, Jim Crockett Jr. was optimistic that their first ever Pay-Per-View, Starrcade ’87: Chi-Town Heat, would capitalise on their summer’s success and would legitimise their place as serious competition to the runaway train […] More
‘Bugonia’ Stings on Conspiracies and Ecology
Yorgos Lanthimos directs some weird kinds of films, even arguably stranger than David Lynch himself. I can’t say I am a fan of Lanthimos’ works, although I have seen a few of his movies (The Lobster, Killing of a Sacred Deer, and Poor Things). I have been impressed by these entries enough to make me […] More
The Cancelled ‘S.T.A.L.K.E.R.’ Video Game TV Show That You Never Heard Of
Back in 2007, the video game world was rocked by a small little game called S.T.A.L.K.E.R.: Shadow of Chernobyl. This fascinating open-world RPG action horror game, made by GSC Game World. It was before its time many IPs that came after copied its dynamic world and gameplay. S.T.A.L.K.E.R. was famous for its dynamic, living game […] More
