Marvel Legends: Vision and Wanda Maximoff
On the eve of the first MCU TV series “WandaVision” let’s get caught up on Vision and Wanda Maximoff!
DetailsHeroes: The Many Masks of Zorro
The character is one of the first masked Vigilantes with dual identities and is the precursor to our modern day superheroes.
DetailsWe Can Be Heroes: The Next Generation
We Can Be Heroes
It can be difficult to review a movie where the intended audience is the pre-teen demographic and not being a pre-teen, I need to put myself in to the mind set of a 10 year old boy, to really give this film justice. Luckily, I never matured past 12, so it isn’t a big stretch!
DetailsMediatorial-Film/Television 2020: The Good, The Bad and the “Meh”
A look back at the Good, The Bad and the In Between of 2020
DetailsRudolph’s Shiny New Year: Odd But Entertaining
Rudolph’s Shiny New Year
On New Years Eve, Rudolph is sent to find the Baby New Year, who must be present when the clock strikes midnight. This entire concept must’ve been the result of a bad acid trip. And that isn’t necessarily a fault of the movie. How? Let’s find out.
DetailsWonder Woman 1984: Be Careful of What You Wish For!
Wonder Woman 1984
Max Lord’s need to become great! To be the best! To impress his son! Leads down a road where the entire world is on the brink of annihilation.
DetailsMr. Magoo’s Christmas Carol: Oh Magoo, you’ve done it again!
Mr. Magoo’s Christmas Carol
Mr. Magoo basically destroys the sets as the audience is applauding and in perfect Magoo fashion, he is oblivious to what is happening around him. Ending with his catch phrase, “Ah, Magoo, you’ve done it again, and by George, I’ve brought down the house!” .Classic!
DetailsA Christmas Carol (1938 Reginald Owen): God Bless Us, Everyone!
A Christmas Carol (1938 Reginald Owen)
We do not see a sick boy feeling sorry for himself because he cannot slide on the ice, but we see a boy who is enjoying watching his brothers have fun! This is in direct contrast to Scrooge, who enjoys nothing, but has everything.
DetailsRise of the Guardians: Unique, Action-Packed, and Fun
Rise of the Guardians
Several folkloric figures are “the guardians,” who protect children’s happiness. A new guardian is appointed as an evil force arises. Modern holiday films either are generic romantic comedies or animated remakes of the classics. This is neither of those, this is an action movie and I’m all for it. Why? Let’s find out.
DetailsA Christmas Carol (1984 George C Scott): Honor Christmas in You heart
A Christmas Carol (1984 George C. Scott)
Scott’s Ebenezer is different from most, often portrayed as an older frail man, shrewd and humorless but without physical strength, but Scott’s very size lends to a quite different take on the character.
DetailsArchenemy: Cosmic Bloody
Archenemy
Archenemy mixes live action with flashbacks told in simple graphic animation. The story unfolds in such a way that we are never sure until the end if Max was really from another dimension, or if he is just a crazy schizophrenic drug addict.
DetailsA Christmas Carol (1999 Patrick Stewart): Mankind was our business!
A Christmas Carol (1999 Patrick Stewart)
I am particularly fond of Patrick Stewart’s transformation at the end. His inability to laugh at first is both humorous, joyful and a bit sad as we see a man that has not heartily laughed in so long that his body does not know how.
