There are those who trash the United States, but for me I think it’s a wonderful place. Where else can an Austrian body builder become one of the most iconic personalities in the world, having an impressive Hollywood career, marrying…
Over the course of his career, James Cameron has directed a total of 8 feature films thus far. The most successful of these was his last one, Avatar, which was for a time both the most expensive movie ever…
Another February is upon us and I think we all know what to expect by now. Our box office prognosticators this month are Thomas Stockel, Tyler Peterson, Rick Lewis, and Jordon Davis.
Birds of Prey (and the Fantabulous Emancipation of …
The Oscars are almost here again, which is why I’m looking at Quentin Tarantino’s latest opus, which is nominated for a few Academy Awards this year and has already gotten Golden Globes for his screenplay and Brad Pitt’s performance. For…
Obviously, one reason Disney continues to thrive today is because of the crap-loads of cash their films revolving around Marvel superheroes have brought in. While not quite as successful, Warner Brothers has still managed to endure thanks, in part, to…
Star Wars Episode IX: The Rise of Skwalker had a lot to accomplish for one movie: it had to not just wrap up a trilogy, but a saga of three trilogies, and to also find a direction to go in…
With Donald Trump now officially the third US president to be impeached, here’s a look at two movies that focused on events which came close to making him the fourth. Both of these films involve journalists from the Washington Post…
Previously: 2019 ended and 2020 started, pretty much on time. Disney+ added the live-action remake of Aladdin, possibly the least necessary film ever made. Oh, you mean in this movie? Captain Holland has concluded that Dr. Reinhardt is probably…
Another new year and another January are upon us, and I think by now we all know what that means. Here to predict which of these (mostly long-delayed) films will be HITs (unlikely) and which will BOMB are Thomas…
Originally, the first movie in the Skywalker Saga was just Star Wars, but since each movie in the nine-episode series since Episode V has had its own title (and the original got one after the release of Empire Strikes Back), …
Previously: The crew of the damaged Palomino met the definitely not crazy commander of the legendarily lost starship Cygnus. He’s got a crew of robots running the place led by the definitely not robot murderer of the original human crew,…
For many, the big moment is here. The final story of the Skywalker saga officially hits theaters this weekend. But I for one wouldn't be surprised if there were more film entries in this series, with or without Skywalkers. After all, Star Wars does have the backing of some studio that uses a mouse as its mascot. But onto the movie itself.
Previously: V’Ger threatened to destroy all life on Earth, leading both Kirk and the screenwriters to completely wing it, coming up with a plan on the fly that sees the Enterprise get drawn even deeper into the alien vessel for a personal meeting with V’Ger itself.
Previously: The small crew of the USS Palomino was surprised to find the very large and very lost USS Cygnus on the edge of a black hole. They were forced to dock and explore the ship for reasons. Those reasons…
It’s the holiday season again, and one of the most beloved of all Christmas stories is How the Grinch Stole Christmas! The book was written by Theodor Geisel, otherwise known as Dr. Seuss.
Published in 1957, the title character is…
It’s the Christmas movie season, where studios typically roll out lots of big blockbusters and awards bait, but much like two years ago, the release schedule is pretty light this year, because the assumption seems to once again be that…
Previously: Nothing. Nothing happened. The small exploratory starship USS Palomino found the long-missing big exploratory starship USS Cygnus near a black hole. That’s it. You are all caught up. Also, I misidentified long-time character actor Robert Forster as “Robert Forester”…
Previously: Decker tried to put the moves on the Ilia-probe, while Spock stole a spacesuit and tried to put the mind-meld moves on V’Ger. Sadly, those living machines aren’t quite the easy lay that either man expected. Spock wakes up in Sickbay. Dr. Chapel is scanning his brain, and McCoy tells Kirk that the “power pouring through that mind-meld” may have caused Spock...
A couple of Fridays ago, the latest reboot of Charlie’s Angels was released, and to no one’s surprise, including director/writer/supporting actor Elizabeth Banks, it bombed. Hard. No one was asking for another Charlie’s Angels and I have no clue how…
Loyal readers may have noticed that I don’t write much. That’s because what I do write is indisputably genius. But why would a genius such as me (or Charles Babbage, or Sir George Stokes, or Isaac Newton, or any of…
