    Review Godzilla: King of the Monsters (2019)

    The biggest problem with Godzilla was that Edwards decided that audiences didn't actually want to see kaiju action, and would rather have the camera move away from monster fights to focus on exposition. The same director who made a big deal out of having Vader in Rogue One, then only used him...

    Review Star Wars : The Mandalorian (2019)

    I like the premise of this show, and I think it could be a great addition to the Star Wars mythos. I'm just curious how they will mess it up.

    Review Classic Doctor Who

    That would be even better than a hypothetical Colin Baker/Eric Seward bitch fest.

    Review The Hartnell Doctor

    So you missed Then you don't want to click on this spoiler. It will wreck you for the rest of the day. But on a happy note, how about what's going on in the Meuller Case?

    Review Luther (2010)

    I love this show. Elba is amazing in the role, and the story is engaging. I hope they do plan on more series.

    Review Dracula (2019)

    Has no one actually read the novel? Dracula wasn't sexy!

    Review The Hartnell Doctor

    Alas, growing up a morbid child and having an unhealthy obsession with serial killers meant that you do end up reading about things that will certainly haunt you for the rest of your life. Jack the Ripper? H.H. Holmes? Ed Gein? Nope, those guys just gave me the creeps (and some really good...

    Fun Post a Funny/Weird/Interesting Video!

    I won't lie, I hated Barney. I know, it was a kid's show, and there were kid's shows I watched that my parents hated, but this one...ugh. There has to be a way to entertain and educate kids in a way that doesn't make me want to rip my eyes from their sockets. I'm glad my kids didn't watch Barney...

    Fun D.C. Animated Universe

    That looks incredible! To hell with all that Teen Titans Go noise, this is what the fans want! Of course, I'm not financially able to spend money on yet another streaming service, but I will shell out the cash for this when it hits Blu-Ray.

    Review Schindler's List (1993)

    I don't remember the actress (my wife told me the original quote, something about not being alone in an elevator with him), but yeah, when #MeToo began, someone outed Gilliam as a real pervert, and frequent sexual predator. Which hurt me deeply, because I have always loved his work.

    Review The Hartnell Doctor

    He has a kind of Albert Fish thing going on there. (Warning: If you aren't familiar with Albert Fish, please do not Google him. Just know he's a bad man.)

    Fun The Last Movie That You Watched?

    Joyeux Noel (2005) - A fictionalized tale based on the true story of the Christmas Truce of 1914 that took place along the Western Front in World War I. Wonderful writing, beautifully shot, and brilliantly acted. While not a historically accurate tale, it does reflect the feelings of the...

    Review Cinema-Going

    1982. A friend and I are sitting in the front row of our local theatre to see Wrath of Khan. The whole movie we were just blown away. Then, it happens. Two six-year-old boys brought to tears at the death of Spock. Our half-Vulcan compatriot who we both adored. My favorite character in all of...

    Fun Doctor Who Collector's Corner

    He certainly has an impressive collection, and I commend him on the work he did on the shed. However, every time he called it an "outhouse", I kept picturing the typical outhouse that was common here in the States before indoor plumbing.

    Review The Witchfinders (2018)

    Duuuude! I am so sick of seeing the comments all over the interwebs. The whole "Doctor Who is just SJW, PC crap now!" These are the same folks who still don't see anything wrong with having a white guy in yellow face for Talons of Weng-Chiang. Apparently, they do get sick of watching Fox News...

    Review The Witchfinders (2018)

    Loved it. The atmosphere was like something you would have seen in a 70s Amicus film. Alan Cumming was just flamboyant enough in the role of King James I, but not over the top. The episode certainly correctly portrayed the paranoia of the time that surrounded the witch hunts. Conservatives are...
