  • If it’s Stephen King, my mom will at least want to know what it’s about. While she doesn’t read as much as she’d like, Stephen King is usually an exception. I’m hoping some day my parents will read some of the list that I gave them. There’s too many…
  • I got to see John Jackson Miller launch Batman Resurrection in person. He signed my copy, and said that there is a sequel on the way around this time next year. He said that he saw Batman in the theaters 12 times in 1989! I plan on reading Batman Re…

  • I think MGW is getting ready to leave his legacy of Bond in the near future. It will be sad when he does. Also, “People are playing it very safe. I think in times of crisis like this, you’ve got to be brave," Broccoli said. “It’s certainly a new …

  • The last month with the Penguin and Joker 2 brings up a continuous debate: Marvel might make better movies on average, while DC makes the better TV shows on average. Clearly, Matt Reeves was the right choice to guide Batman in more than one way. As …

  • In memory of Tony Todd, here is one of his last projects, as a villain.
  • I'm in. If they kill off Ethan Hunt, that's a shame. Tom Cruise could do these movies for a long time. Hopefully, this one won't bomb at the box office, or copy Bond too much again. That submarine sequence looks similar to TWINE. These last two MI m…
