Pump: Everyone is Entitled to My Opinion!
Every once in awhile a documentary comes out that annoys this piss out of everyone. Not cause it’s poorly made, not because the subject matter isn’t entertaining, but because it shows us that as a society we’re amazingly complacent. Pump is one of those documentaries akin to Who Killed the Electric Car?, Food Inc., Flow, […]

3 and OUT: Z Nation needs a bullet to the head
If you’ve been paying attention to the sometimes not to subtle hints I give about myself. I’m not your typical zombies guy, mostly, I don’t care for anything Horror related because I’m a giant wuss. I think the only zombie related movie I’ve enjoyed was 28 Days Later and when it comes to TV, I […]
Gotham: Season 1, Episode 2 “Selina Kyle” – Kitties and Penguins steal the show
After a pretty decent pilot, Gotham returned with a much better second episode titled “Selina Kyle”. While the pilot episode focused much more on Jim Gordon (Ben McKenzie) and Oswald Cobblepot (Robin Lord Taylor), this episode, inferred by the title, focus more on the pretty acrobatic young girl who witnessed the Wayne murder. But in […]

Saga Issue #22 gets complicated
Not complicated in a bad way, just more complicated in terms of the story and where your brain wants these kinds of love stories and drama to go. Typically, the husband/wife focus point is blissfully in love to the point it is sickening and wholly unrealistic. That is not true in Saga. While their love […]
The Equalizer is an enthusiastic rush of action
The Equalizer, which is an adaptation of the television series, is extremely well made, incredibly entertaining and satisfying, but light on meaning. This isn’t a bad thing, carrot cake is still good, satisfying, but it doesn’t count as eating vegetables. Much like that carrot cake, this film is highly satisfactory, and it contains just enough […]

Gotham Pilot: A Batman Show with No Batman
Gotham is another comic book TV show in a long line of comic book TV shows – Marvel Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D., The Flash, Arrow, Constantine… However, Gotham is different: this is a superhero show with no superhero; there is no Batman in a Batman show. Gotham is concerned with two people, at least in the […]
Conan the Avenger: Shadows of Kush, Issues #2 – #5, reviewed
Gronk….Gronk When I last talked about this new run, it was the inaugural first issue. Which was tremendously good. Now that I’ve gotten myself all caught up (hey, it happens) I’ve been able to get more of a feel for the story and what Van Lente is up to. Conan the Avenger: Shadows over Kush […]
Tusk reviewed: Be careful what you ask for
Tusk-tusk..!
As much a defense as it is an explanation, writer/director Kevin Smith’s own voice over the credits retells how he and fellow podcaster Jason Mewes concocted Tusk during their successful SModcast. They then invited their listeners to respond with either #walrusyes or #walrusno… which resulted in this film: a parody of the whole “based on […]
