Welcome back to the blog readers. It has been a minute since I got to watch a Marvel series, with the last one being the very disappointing Ironheart (2025). I was hoping for a series that I could really sink my teeth into, and I had a feeling that this series was going to be a big swing (especially since this show has many people I like in it). Would the premiere, titled "Matinee," written by Andrew Guest, and directed by Destin Daniel Cretton, be able to get us started on t

Welcome back to the blog readers. As you know by now, I am a fervent fan of the content that we have gotten in the Game of Thrones universe. While I may love House of the Dragon (2022-) more than Game of Thrones (2011-19), I cannot deny that this universe can tell us some pretty amazing stories. The first episode of A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms (2026-) showed a real lot of promise with the potential for more. Would this episode, titled "Hard Salt Beef," written by Aziza Bar

Welcome back to the blog readers. One genre of film that has never really sat right with me would have to be the screenlife genre. To be honest with you all, I really do not get why the genre exists in the first place. It feels like a lazy way to save money on a budget, but they all feel the same, especially that terrible War of the Worlds (2025) film from last year. Hearing this film would be coming left me intrigued and nervous at the same time since I love the stars of the

Welcome back to the blog readers. This is not something I have had the opportunity to really talk about on this blog, but I have been a fan of Stranger Things (2016-25). It has been a very fun throwback to the best of the 1980s while pretty much becoming a cultural phenomenon. The world has fallen in love with these characters and it has created some major stars in the business: Millie Bobby Brown, Finn Wolfhard, David Harbour, and Joseph Quinn, just to name a few. I was very

Welcome back to the blog readers. We have finally arrived at my favorite time of the year (aside from when Avengers: Doomsday (2026) wins Best Picture next year): when Oscar nominations are revealed. It makes me very happy when we get to this time of year, because the chaos and insanity really begins. As I do every year, I want to talk about and react to some of the Academy Award nominations, and give my two-sense as to who I think will take home some of the major categories.

Welcome back to the blog readers. As you may know by now, I was very excited for 28 Years Later (2025) from the trailers, but found myself somewhat disappointed with the film. However, one of the main positives was without a doubt the breakout performance of Alfie Williams, who gave one of my favorite performances of the year. He is the main reason I was even planning on seeing this film in the first place, and I was hopeful that this would be a better film than the first. Wo

Welcome back to the blog readers. If you know me in real life, you would know that I am a fan of Game of Thrones (2011-19), but not as big a fan as a lot of people are. But House of the Dragon (2022-) is absolutely one of the best shows on television right now. Getting a first-hand look at the Targaryen civil war has been fascinating. Now, we have a new kind of Game of Thrones show, in the sense that we are getting smaller with the focus being on one pair of characters. Would

Welcome back to the blog readers. Now that 2025 is officially in the books and we have looked back on the best and worst that Hollywood gave us over that 365-day period, one of my favorite times is finally upon us. And that time is when I look at what is to come in the next calendar year to give us something to look forward to. There are fourteen films I want to talk about specifically, and all twelve are my most anticipated of this coming year. What are they and how much am

Welcome back to the blog readers. Holy hell, time is flying. It feels just like yesterday that I was talking about Conclave (2024) being my pick for Best Picture and was putting the final touches on my best and worst lists of 2024. Now, we have reached the end of 2025, and I think it was yet another incredible year for films. Now that we have reached the end, I want to take this time and rank my top 25 films of the year. Which would be my favorite? Will your favorite film app

Welcome back to the blog readers. Another year is officially in the books, and another set of films have graced our senses and tickled our imaginations. We experienced yet another great year for film, but not everything is meant to be sunshine and roses, as evidenced in the chaos that is unfolding around us. There were some unequivocal stinkers that came out this year, and we unfortunately do have to talk about them. So with that being said, what would top the list of the wor

Welcome back to the blog readers. Ladies and gentleman, we have finally made it to the end. The series that has become a cultural phenomenon over the last near decade has finally come to an end, and that show is of course Stranger Things (2016-25). We have come to know and love these characters, and we have basically watched our core kids grow up before our very eyes. This is also a momentous occasion for my blog since this is the first time I have ever reviewed an episode of

Welcome back to the blog readers. 2025 was undoubtedly the best year in horror that I have ever seen. We got great films like Sinners, Together, Weapons, and The Monkey (all 2025), and I am looking forward to seeing what 2026 will offer in that department. We are starting off the year with two high-profile horror projects that will each deliver their own thing, but how would my first film of the year fare? Stick around to find out. Primate was directed by Johannes Roberts fro

Welcome back to the blog readers. We are approaching the end of the road when it comes to Stranger Things (2016-25). There are two episodes left in the show that has taken over the industry over the last near-decade, and this fifth season has been filled with great character work, great spectacle, and so many more questions to be answered in the final 3 hours and 14 minutes of this show. How would we get ourselves ready for the end of the line with this penultimate episode, t

Welcome back to the blog readers. As you guys have gotten to see for the last year and a half, I have fallen head over heels in love with the series The Boys (2019-26). Ever since I got to see Billy Butcher, Hughie Campbell, Annie January, Homelander, etc., I have been so intrigued about the world that Eric Kripke and friends have delivered for us. I know I was very late to the game, and I definitely regret it because I will not be caught up by the time everybody else watches

Welcome back to the blog readers. I have been absolutely loving Gen V (2023-) thus far. It has greatly expanded the universe of The Boys (2019-26) in a way that was totally unexpected. A show about college students that is focused on the characters while only showing brief ties to its parent show? Sign me up. I am so saddened that we have reached the finale for two reasons: because I have to wait an unspecified amount of time to watch the show again, and because I will never

Welcome back to the blog readers. I'm not sure about you guys, but I am very much enjoying this final season of Stranger Things (2016-25). The performances have been stellar in my estimation and I really have been enjoying the story we have been getting. I am very much looking forward to seeing how this all ends. Now that we are revving up towards the end of the end, how would I feel about this sixth episode, titled "Chapter Six: Escape from Camazotz," written by Kate Trefry,

Welcome back to the blog readers. I think it is safe to say that Netflix films are pretty hit and miss. I do my best to try to avoid most of them because I do not have the power to sit through a lot of crappy films. Since this film is from one of my favorite director duos, I had faith that this would be one of the rare exceptions where I liked an original Netflix film. Would my hope be proven to be true, however? Stick around to find out. The Electric State was directed by Jo

Welcome back to the blog readers. As you all know, science fiction is one of the genres that I love the most because it allows for us to explore some familiar tropes and questions with new ideas and ways to think about the mortal world we live in. One of the staples of the science fiction genre over the last century plus would have to be War of the Worlds, a novel that has been adapted into every possible medium: television series, television film, radio show, and theatrical

Welcome back to the blog readers. One of the big surprises for me would absolutely have to be Gen V (2023-), a show that lives in the universe of The Boys (2019-26) and is not afraid to prove it. This is a far more character-focused show than The Boys is, and I believe that is why I have fallen in love with this show as hard as I have. Now that we are approaching the end of the first season, what is in store for us with this penultimate episode, titled "Sick," written by Chel

Welcome back to the blog readers. Now that I am approaching the three-year anniversary of this blog, there should at this point be a small group of people who do not know at this point that I love Timothée Chalamet. While I may or may not be joking about him being the love of my life (we will never know), I really do believe he will be the next Daniel Day-Lewis. With this oddball film being his next film, would it move him closer or further from my proclamation? Stick around
