Prometheus: New Review After Re-Watch
Last night I decided to re-watch Prometheus. I enjoy having a decent movie in the background while doing something once in a while. Prometheus is a great background movie because the movie is good and there’s some great scenes that I enjoy watching. So how does it stack up versus my initial few times watching?

Why Jem the Movie Failed
Jem the Movie wasn’t an anticipated movie. In fact, there were a lot of hesitation about how it would be cast, knowing how Hollywood tends to bungle reboots and live action versions of much beloved cartoon series. Yet despite all the warnings against the movie, the producers still went ahead and produced a film that…

The Fly: Movie Review
I never was a horror movie genre fan nor a fan of Cronenberg. In fact, I normally eschew horror and especially Cronenberg since it’s simply not my taste. I do have a fair amount of respect for his work, despite it being, bluntly stated, commonly “gross.” So when I spotted The Fly on HBO Now…

The Lego Movie: Review
People who have known me understand that I have been a Lego fan my entire life. I’ve collected Lego since the age of 2 and would not be the same person without them. They have caused me grief (both in stepping on them and dealing with the cost/burden of having so much) but they consistently…

Interstellar: Review
I asked around a bit before deciding to give this movie a shot. Originally, I hesitated after reading some poor reviews on IMDB but a few coworkers suggested for me to check this out. Needing a quick distraction, I decided to give Christopher Nolan’s Interstellar a spin. Oh boy.

The Hobbit: The Battle of the Five Armies – Review
Being a completionist (and a masochist simultaneously), I decided to finish up Peter Jackson’s The Hobbit series with the final film as it came out on iTunes today. I wrote a pretty scathing review for the first one and didn’t bother writing up a review for the second one, despite having seen it. So how…

Megan is Missing Review
Some sadistic jerk in from one of the Twitch streams I subscribe to made a suggestion to check out Megan Is Missing because the streamer enjoys “fuck up things.” Since I haven’t seen a movie in a while (at least a non-repeat), I decided to hang out and give this thing a try. If you…

Captain America: The Winter Soldier Review
As usual, I know I’m horribly late to the game in writing up a review because I finally have been able to see this movie. Honestly, I had been waiting for sometime to catch Captain America: The Winter Soldier on iTunes and just bought it on HD. Back when the latest X-Men was released, I…

X-Men: Days of Future Past Review
I managed to hit the gym and decided afterward that my reward would be to check out X-Men: Days of Future Past. As a long time X-Men fan (especially for Storm, whom I profess infinite geek love for), I was eager to check this movie out after seeing the gorgeous previews and hearing the clamors…

Movie Review: Wolverine 2013
Since I don’t have anyone to hang out with for seeing movies, I tend to be a little late to the game when it comes to the blockbusters and such. As a result, I end up waiting until they come out on iTunes so I can pick them up. Unfortunately, that tends to bulk up…
