    Review Captain America: The Winter Soldier (2014)

    I thoroughly enjoy this movie. After CAPTAIN AMERICA being a war movie and AVENGERS being a good sci-fi comic book romp, this one was a nice step outside of that. Equal parts action movie and political thriller, we see Cap questioning everything he knows. When Fury gives him the line about...

    Review Friends (1994)

    When it was running, Joey was my favorite. Recently, I read an article where someone talked about how Ross was the hero of the show, and how it was the story of an intelligent man being made dumber by his group of friends. I like that theory, but Ross is still just too whiny for me to completely...

    Review Marvel's Iron Fist (2017)

    I finished this the night before last, and I loved it. Sure, it drags in spots (around episodes 10 and 11), but for the most part, I really thought it was good. The fight choreography wasn't the best, which Finn claims was due to the tight filming schedule, but it was really fun to see him on...

    Review Spider-man 3 (2007)

    I've had friends try to justify this movie, and I hate it. Raimi even went on record as saying he wanted to develop the Venom storyline the way it was in the comics, and the studio pushed for it to sell tickets. This is another reason I hate movie studios. They can't keep their hands off, even...

    Review The Amazing Spider-man (2012)

    I agree with @Hux . Yeah, it was updated, done differently, but with the really established heroes, stop with the origin stories. I don't mind as much with the lesser known characters, like Doctor Strange or the various Netflix Marvel shows, because most of the audience doesn't know who they...

    I think that comment was for me. I forgot about not double posting. You're in the clear, not me. My bad.

    Fun Another weird and wacky combination/comparison!

    I also answer to "geek", "nerd", "fanboy", "horror fanatic", "rebel scum", "gangster of love", "the guy playing bass", "Lub (short for Caleb)", "hey, psycho, get out of my bedroom", and "Vicky". And many moons ago, in the early days of the interwebs, there were whispers that I may or may not...

    Like every weekend in Florida to golf, which we, the American taxpayers, foot the bill for?

    Controversial Trump

    All you need to do is watch the news. And by that, I don't mean Faux News. This man couldn't tell the truth if you gave him an overdose of sodium pentathol. And the fact that, everywhere you go on the internet, people buy his rhetoric so much that when his lies are proven to be just that, they...

    Review Hillary Clinton

    Both of them were shady AF. However, I happened to vote for the one who wasn't a sexual assaulting, woman shaming, xenophobic, homophobic, Russian-owned, watersports loving, horror show.

    Fun Star Trek: The Original Series

    This show has been a huge part of my life since birth. Being born in the late 70s, I grew up on reruns, comic books, and even had records of stories (with really bad "sound alike" voice actors). It was my first real introduction to sci-fi, even before DOCTOR WHO and STAR WARS. The writers used...

    TWILIGHT ZONE - BACK THERE vs. QUANTUM LEAP - LEE HARVEY OSWALD A man goes back in time and has the chance to stop the assassination of one of the most respected presidents in history, and in both stories, they fail in their mission. TWILIGHT ZONE - STATIC vs. FREQUENCY In one story, an old...

    Fun Your Favourite Films?

    I've always said that, had this not been a sequel, I'd absolutely love this movie. It's a great B-sci-fi movie, and a perfect example of the sort that were coming out in the late 80s/early 90s. The fact that it was tied to a movie as brilliant as HIGHLANDER brought it down.

    That's so genius I want to hug you! For some reason, I've never drawn that parallel before, and that's one of my favorite episodes. I have to go back to work, so I'll think more on this and be back later. This is Christmas!

    Review Spock's Brain (1968)

    We all have to face what happened to us. We were all...hurt by this. We need to speak up about the abuse, so that others can learn not to be taken in by those they trust and be scarred in such a way. Sit in the circle and tell the group what happened to you when you watched it.

    Review The End of the World (2005)

    Worse yet, by the time it premiered here in the States (at that time, SyFy was showing it, before dropping it and BBC America picking it up), and we didn't see it for several months after it originally aired. I think it wasn't too long after this aired that they announced that Tennant would be...

    Fun Star Trek: Enterprise

    I think Archer was a good captain. When Kirk and company hit the screen, the Federation had already been established and humans had adapted to dealing with space travel, aliens cultures, etc., even though there would still be events and situations that would take them by surprise. When Archer...

    Fun Star Trek: The Original Series

    A scholar and a gentleman. He really was a great actor, but I don't think Hollywood ever gave him the right roles. I know he got glowing reviews for his theatre work, and I wish I could have seen him on stage. Have you seen the documentary FOR THE LOVE OF SPOCK that his son Adam did? It's on...

    Review Spock's Brain (1968)

    It's stories like that that make me hate Shatner just a little bit. I was recently watching the episode of SHATNER'S RAW NERVE when he had Walter Koenig on, and Keonig told him flat out what the cast's issues were with him. He obviously held no ill will himself after all of these years, but he...
