Foundation
It is ambitious to take a book serious that is so prolific and complex and try to make it an understandable and interesting television series. The otherworldly visuals are stunning, with some truly beautiful imagery.
DetailsY: The Last Man
The world, of late, is a troubled place and I want to believe that if a global catastrophe occurred, the remaining human race would step up and fill the void left by those who died. But this show holds up a mirror to what would probably really happen.
DetailsWhat If…?
Michael did a wonderful job recreating his roll. You can still feel in his voice the very need to avenge his fathers death and free his people from suppression.
DetailsMalignant
Malignant has a great mystery to be solved, but even more than that, it has a very special energy and a very outside the box, over the top story.
DetailsWhat If…?
The What If… series allows the show to dip into many different genres. Captain Carter is a 1940s serial, the Dr. Strange episode was a tragic love story, and now we can add “classic horror” to the list, and it is done quite well.
DetailsWhat If…?
The emotions in the episode are powerful and you feel for the main character as he tries to deal with his grief. The show makes us address tragedy and how we deal with loss. We end up asking ourselves, what would we do to bring back the ones we love or undo our saddest, most tragic moments.
DetailsThe Witcher: Nightmare of the Wolf
The storyline is intriguing and complex, with plenty of action, excitement and monsters, but also a bit of romance, comedy and drama.
DetailsWhat If…
Continuing with the extremely high quality, episode 3 of the What If… series remains impressive. Before Nick Fury (Samuel L. Jackson) can attempt to recruit the avengers, all the heroes that were on the possible roster begin to die.
DetailsThe Green Knight
There is a great arthouse quality to it, and the music is phenomenal adding a great ambiance. The sets and costumes are all wonderfully presented. There are some great themes they tackle. Like living honorably and how we face death.
DetailsReminiscence
Like an old Bogart movie, Nick narrates the film with a somber dark tone reminiscent of Sam Spade in the Maltese Falcon, and Mae is the classic “Femme Fatale”. The dialogue has a classic rhythm to it and even the costumes seem to allude to the 1940s.
DetailsWhat If
The episode pays homage to Chadwick Boseman, who lent his vocal talents to the episode, reprising his role as T’Challa before passing away last year from cancer. This was his final performance and was a wonderful tribute to the actor.

This is one of those amazing film series that every time I watch it instantly takes me back to my childhood and early adult years. It is hard for me to fathom that Raiders of the Lost Ark turned 40 this past June.
