Countdown to Infinity War: Revisiting Avengers: Age of Ultron (2015)

When one thinks about the Avengers, there are only a handful of villains that come to mind who can pose a true challenge. Loki was an excellent choice for the first film; he was known to people who saw Thor…

Countdown to Infinity War: Revisiting Guardians of the Galaxy (2014)

When Marvel announced their post-Avengers movie schedule in 2012, I expected some titles to be on the list. I expected a Black Widow movie. I expected Power Man and Iron Fist. I had expected Daredevil. Bear in…

God's Not Dead 2 (2016): Electric Bible-loo

Glory be to the Bad Movie Gods! Pure Flix, the makers of films aimed squarely at evangelical Christians, earned enough money from their excruciatingly awful (and inexplicably successful) 2014 release God’s Not Dead to continue making films based on the…

Countdown to Infinity War: Revisiting Captain America: The Winter Soldier (2014)

Previously: I was dreading Marvel’s 2014 films, especially after the lackluster 2013 entries in the series. You might be asking yourself what I was dreading, seeing as I loved the first Captain America movie so much. The answer is simple:…

4 reasons why The Boondock Saints has aged very badly

You might get invited to a St. Patrick’s Day party this weekend. You may come decked out in that greenish shirt from the bottom of your drawer. You may eat your fill of the finest Irish dishes, like “various root…

Countdown to Infinity War: Revisiting Thor: The Dark World (2013)

Previously: Marvel Studios pulled off a minor miracle, as their four-year plan to release multiple movies as a lead up to a mega-crossover cinematic event exceeded everyone’s sky-high expectations and ultimately resulted in what was the top grossing film of…

Tron (1982), a recap (part 2 of 6)

Previously on Tron: We learned that the computer world is becoming more and more advanced. A certain program that calls itself the Master Control Program pretty much dominates it. However, after it gets rid of a program that looks…

Countdown to Infinity War: Revisiting Iron Man 3 (2013)

Previously: 2012 passed into our rear-view mirror and 2013 was upon us, and when it came to Marvel movies, we had no idea what to expect. In 2008, we knew the goal for these movies had been the formation of…

Can we stop using the word "reboot"?

Looking at this year’s slate of movie reboots (including Death Wish, Tomb Raider, Venom, Robin Hood: Origins, and Mary Poppins Returns) made me come to a realization: Someday, Disney is going to reboot Star Wars…

Countdown to Infinity War: Revisiting The Avengers (2012)

Four years. Four years since that teaser at the end of the Iron Man credits, where Nick Fury teased the “Avengers Initiative”. Four years and here it was, the movie that nerds worldwide had been waiting for. Don’t get me…

Countdown to Infinity War: Revisiting Captain America: The First Avenger (2011)

Previously: It was confirmed, True Believer, that there was going to be an Avengers movie. And okay, maybe word like that got dropped on some geek web site at the time, but I didn’t always follow that stuff; a lot…

Tron (1982), a recap (part 1 of 6)

I’ve written articles about films where I’ve made a point to note other movies that were released in the same year. To me, this has been relevant because the 1980s was a pretty great decade when it came to science…

Countdown to Infinity War: Revisiting Thor (2011)

I have a confession to make: I’m not a big Thor fan. I’m not saying I hate the character, and there have been periods where I picked up the comic (for example, I was really digging what Jason Aaron was…

Hit or Bomb? March 2018 movie predictions

It may be March, but it’s looking more like summer at the cineplex, due to several big budget sci-fi/fantasy releases this month. Once again, it’s time for us here at the Agony Booth to play armchair box office prognosticators and…

Countdown to Infinity War: Revisiting Iron Man 2 (2010)

Previously: The post-credits scene of Incredible Hulk implied that we were going to be seeing our first glimpse of the Avengers. Would it be similar to the origin of the team in the comic, which was centered around the hunting…

Countdown to Infinity War: Revisiting The Incredible Hulk (2008)

Previously: Iron Man was tremendously successful both commercially and critically, and we comic book readers in particular loved it. It seemed that our long drought of bad comic book movies was at last over, and Marvel was serious about making…

Memoirs of an Invisible Man (1992)

If any actor can be considered as having fallen from grace over the decades, it’s Chevy Chase. He became an instant star thanks to his work on the first two seasons of Saturday Night Live. His success, not surprisingly,…
