I was pretty happy watching Venom 2, but I think my viewing was biased due to the fact that I’m very homesick right now, and they kept running around my town doing stuff. In hindsight, I may have enjoyed the first film a lot more for the same reasons. [Heading 1] Venom 2 is a... Continue Reading →
Oblivion
I’ve seen Tom Cruise’s Oblivion maybe half a dozen times, and I can tell you with confidence, this movie deserves a place among the pantheon with the best sci-fi films of all time.
Why Michael Bay’s Transformers films are Narrative Genius
Is Michael Bay a genius? Are the Transformers movies anything more than a loud, sexist, racist homophobic mess? There may be a meaning buried under this crap.
