Have you ever noticed that Daniel Craig looks a lot like Kevin McKidd? Imagine a world where McKidd made it as Bond, and Craig was a doctor at Grey Sloan Memorial. I still wouldn’t hate myself any less for watching 15 seasons of the show.
Shazam!
I wrote this review on July 25, 2019. Considering the recent success of The Suicide Squad, I thought I'd share my thoughts on this movie and the fate of the DC movies. I had a lot of fun with this movie. I don’t know if it was on purpose, but I think this movie was... Continue Reading →
Casablanca
I have a habit of saving really good movies to watch during the worst of times. Movies are an escape from the tedium of life, the frustrations of reality. It’s why fantasies and adventures and dreams and heroes are so popular. It’s why the worlds we visit in the movies entrance us, distract us and... Continue Reading →
2020
Y’all remember that movie 2012 that somehow everybody both watched and haven’t watched? Like. It’s constantly playing on the FX channel, sandwiched between a 5pm EST showing of X-Men and an 11pm showing of Fan4tastic? Anyways, this movie is way better than any of the others. Single Take Grandeur So I haven’t seen the movie... Continue Reading →
The Suicide Squad
In the past I’ve harked about mislaid bricks in franchise films, and how poorly laid bricks lead to compounding failure, or the Leaning Tower of Pisa. This movie is the latter. The Suicide Squad is a ridiculous, bloody, meta, hilarious, excellent movie that absolutely deserves a watch. The writing is intelligent, the story is captivating,... Continue Reading →
The Green Knight
WHOOO Boy this movie. The Green Knight is one of the trippiest, most artsy farsty, balls to the wall insane, self indulgent movies I’ve ever seen. The Green Knight is a movie you will not finish if you don’t watch in theaters or completely stoned. It’s a stunning mindfuck of a film, and you will... Continue Reading →
The Twilight Saga
Yesterday I sat down and watched all five movies in the The Twilight Saga in a row, back to back, without breaks or distractions. I have transformed into a husk of a man, completely embroiled in my own self pity and wanderlust for the lush forests of Northwestern America. I suffered fever dreams of chiseled...

On Agents of SHIELD Canonicity
Agents of SHIELD is one of the best superhero shoes out there. The characters are complex and nuanced, the storylines are believable and engaging, the effects border on acceptable. I get it. The show is cheesy. It’s campy, it’s cringey, it’s lo-fi. I’m not saying it’s the most polished, cinematic, earth shattering piece of media... Continue Reading →
Black Widow
Woof. What happened here? Marvel’s Black Widow is one of the few times I’ve felt that an MCU film was more miss than hit. I really wanted to like it, and there’s a lot to like. But there’s also some key chunks that are missing that really, really annoyed me. It feels like a tragic,... Continue Reading →
The Tomorrow War
I used my twitter feed as a guide to write this review, as I used my friends’ patience as a sounding board for my livestreamed mania as I blundered through The Tomorrow War, furiously screaming into the abyss of the internet, eager for someone's attention - or better yet, validation. Best case scenario, Chris Pratt... Continue Reading →
