FLASH SPOILER Review: Episode 5×11- “Seeing Red”
The Flash (5×11)- “Seeing Red” Written by: Judalina Neira & Thomas Pound Directed by: Marcus Stokes From “The Flash and the Furious” to “Seeing Red.” Interesting progression. We open on Cicada and the anti-meta-human movement seems to be gaining steam. Someone in the CCPD leaked names and addresses of metas to his doctor friend and this lets him knock off a lot of metas in quick succession which brings Team Flash running and that’s where things go haywire when Cicada breaks Nora’s back. This episode kind of reminds people that while Barry is so packed full of Hope he could easily replace Adara as the embodiment of Hope in the…

THE FLASH SPOILER Review: S5 E6- “The Icicle Cometh”
The Flash S5 E6- “The Icicle Cometh” Written by: Kristen Kim & Joshua V Gilbert Directed by: Chris Peppe Watching this episode I realized a few things; One: I must have watched this episode when I first came back from Japan to catch up because this was the déjà vu hour. Two: Not a lot happened because I actually smashed most of what happened in this episode in the following episode. Three: It’s time to put a name to episodes like this because while not a whole lot happened a lot of plot points for the overall season were kind of brought closer to the surface. First there was Caitlin…

Recap: ARROW S7 E10 – My Name is Emiko Queen
Arrow returns for its mid-season premiere and returns to its roots. My Name is Emiko Queen is essentially an origin story for the new Green Arrow. This episode has a strong connection to Oliver’s story, even going as far for the title to be a direct reference to the show’s intro. The episode is almost too familiar. Emiko is the daughter of Robert Queen. She returns to Star City with only one goal, to avenge her mother’s death. Is this sounding familiar? This episode wants to focus on the parallels between Oliver and Emiko, but it becomes distracting. She’s just as brooding and stubborn as Olivers but it feels more…

We will be reviewing Young Justice Outsiders Episodes 7-9: Evolution, Triptych, and Home Fires. This is your spoiler warning.

Here we see his beginnings. We have flashbacks of his life. He has been around for quite a while. Fifty thousand years to be precise. We see his come in…

FLASH SPOILER Review: Episode 5×10- “The Flash and the Furious”
The Flash (5×10)- “The Flash and the Furious” Written by: Kelly Wheeler & Sterling Gates Directed by: David McWhirter Alright! The second half of Season five kicks off with a title I am genuinely surprised they didn’t use earlier. (It’s like how both the Bruce Timm Batman cartoon and “The Batman” reworked Batman film titles for Batgirl episodes, you just know the next Batman cartoon will have an episode called “Batgirl v Superman” at some point.) The episode opens pretty much where we left off in the 100th episode with Nora in the future talking with Eobard Thawne still looking like Wells. (They’ll have to explain that soon enough.) We…

REVIEW: GLASS (2019) – The “Batman v Superman” We Deserved
Glass doesn't try to one-up its predecessors. Instead, Glass is a film more interested in asking what it means to be a mastermind, a hero, or a villain.

How THE LAST AIRBENDER Ruined My Childhood
Avatar: The Last Airbender is one of the greatest animated series ever made. Created by Michael Dimartino and Bryan Konietzko, ATLA follows the story of Aang and his friends as they go on a journey to end a 100-year war and bring peace to the world. The series takes a lot of inspiration from different eastern cultures as well as western media (Star Wars specifically). It was truly lightning in a bottle. The success of the series lead to a live-action adaptation, and that was, well… Let’s talk about M. Night Shyamalan’s The Last Airbender. There are very few films that I hate. I try to see the best in everything,…
