Every now and then you'll come across a show that's just so good that you can't help but tell people about it. For me, at this moment, that show would have to be Parasyte: The Maxim. Having just finished the final episode last night, (really, early this morning) I'm still attempting to wrap my head around it all. Parasyte is unlike any other anime that I've seen, which is why I feel even more incl

So, a few weeks ago I wrote a review on Spike Jonze’s epic love story, Her & ever since then I haven’t been able to stop thinking about the idiosyncratic manner with which the A.I. (Artificial Intelligence) superseded its original programming & eventually evolved to a state of existence which we, as humans, couldn’t even begin to comprehend. While I never paid too much attention to that facet of t

A few months ago rumblings began about the possibility of a Watchmen series in development at HBO. While the series hasn’t been officially ordered as of yet, I’ve continued to see news suggesting that it‘s only a matter of time. Since I’ve been doing so many posts about the Watchmen as of late, I decided it would be appropriate to include my thoughts on the development of this new series. When I

So, yesterday, news dropped that Tom Holland’s Spider-Man would be making an appearance in the new Venom movie. While it makes sense that Spider-Man would be involved in some capacity, the idea of introducing such a popular Spider-Man villain in a Non-Spider-Man film (&, really, just the whole concept for this movie) seems like a stupendous blunder. While I have a number of issues with this movie

At this point, we comic book folk are no strangers to the world of crossovers. In fact, in this day in age, if you’re not crossing over, you’re doing something wrong. Whether it’s the big team crossovers like the Avengers and the Justice League, or small screen crossovers like the Arrowverse.. the comic book community – really the general public as a whole - has fallen in love with the notion of b

For as long as I can remember, comic books have always been very intricately intertwined. For example, I recently bought Volume’s 1 and 2 of the 2015 Invincible Iron Man series – the one that takes place after the events of Secret Wars – and it was filled with a plethora of different cameos; from Jane Foster’s Thor, to “facial hair bro” Doctor Strange, to my personal favorite – the King of Latveri

Code Geass. Boy, I don’t even know where to start with this show. If you were ever going to watch an anime, this would be the one to watch. Not only does it present audiences with a wonderfully crafted story about a young, disinherited Prince on the path of revenge – it also manages to provide a unique setting, which weaves in elements of both magic and science, telling a truly distinctive story u

So, I just finished watching Netflix’s Death Note film and.. well, where do I begin? Let’s start back at the end of June, when I saw the first trailer for the film. My first impression of it was less than positive. With the dour appearance of our protagonist, Light; the strange take on the would-be masked hero, L; and the abundance of action, for which the anime was not known for… I couldn’t help

So, a lot has happened today and it forced me to think about some things. Before starting this post, I spent well over an hour typing away about the entire incident - from the rallies promoting their agenda, to the incident with the man plowing through a group of opposing protestors. And, it was as I was nearing the end that I decided to use an example from a film that seemed to coincide with thos

The Dark Knight has his slew of rogues, each with their own ability to challenge him in ways the others cannot; the Scarecrow forced him to face his fears, Ra’s Al Ghoul confronted him with his past; Bane presented a physical challenge unlike any he had faced before; but the only enemy who was ever able to break his spirit, his hope, was the Joker, and that’s why I find him so, interesting.
