Another Year, Another Spider-Man Movie - Spider-Man: Far From Home (2019)
Spider-Man (not always the same one, mind you) has appeared in six films over the last four years…
But maybe that's not an entirely bad thing…
Catharsis Of The Arses - Avengers: Endgame (2019)
That's right, kids: I'm going to get emotional and psychological about a superhero film. Welcome to my Friday evening.
A Touch Of Glass - Glass (2019)
I suppose in some ways it's very weird that watching Glass was inspirational enough to get my finger out and write something about this movie. But maybe such inspiration is not a good thing, because I kind of just want to moan about how much I wanted this film to be better.
More Like The Crappytime Murders, Am I Right? - The Happytime Murders (2018)
This is not one of those posts wherein I wonder about things, where I review and I consider and I contemplate many things. This is one of those posts whereI moan about how terrible something is, and the subject of this ire and moan is The Happytime Murders.
Fragile Masculinity: The Westworld Penis
Who doesn't love a good penis?
Wait, don't answer that question: there's probably some sort of shame in your answer, the same type of shame I'm feeling for writing this piece.
Full Of Pop-Culture References, Signifying Nothing - Ready Player One
As a book that focuses on pop-culture references, Ready Player One was suggested to me as a delight to read, one that would be easy to get through and get me back in the right mood and headspace to read again.
At least some part of that was true: I forced myself to get through it in a matter of days so I wouldn't have to deal with it any longer.
AKA Nobody Move, Nobody Get Boiled - Jessica Jones, Season 2
When you, as a man, watch the second season of Jessica Jones, a TV series about a female superhero, a show that makes a point of utilising female directors, of getting released on International Women's Day...do you have any right or authority to comment?
Owning A Star Trek - Star Trek: Discover, Season 1
With Star Trek; Discovery episodic Star Trek, just like the olden days, has to work, right?
The Historian: Book Review
As an English undergraduate, there were many (many, many, many) books that I picked up with the intention of reading...and never finished. A lot of them, I never even started.
I mentioned that a few posts back in a review on The Strain series and the connected TV show. After reading and watching that series, it seemed natural to continue dealing with the undead, It felt natural to remain on a path of vampires, and to revisit another failed reading attempt. Amazon tells me that I bought the Kindle copy of The Historian in August 2012, probably a similar time to The Strain: clearly, my brain was in that same vampiric world as I am now.
