FLASH SPOILER Review: Episode 7×01- “All’s Well That Ends Wells”
The Flash (7×01)- “All’s Well That Ends Wells” Written by: Sam Chalsen & Lauren Certo Directed by: Geoffrey Wing Shotz Okay! You’re not writing about the Mandalorian anymore. You’re writing about the Flash… You can do this. After a one hundred and fifteen thousand years, The Flash is back and it’s a doozy! First off, the recap was very useful. Afterwards we open on Chester monitoring the computers at STAR Labs when Eva shows up so Chester hints a button and brings Barry out of carbon freeze… Wait! That’s something else! Apparently they been keeping Barry in cryo-freeze alongside Ted Williams and Walt Disney to save what little speed he…

ALBUM REVIEW: Denizen Tenant by Joseph Williams
This is a two part review. Check out our review of I Found The Sun Again by Steve Lukather. When you hear the name John Williams, what typically comes to mind is Superman, Star Wars, or Indiana Jones. What’s remarkable about the elder Williams’ career is how iconic it is, permeating all parts of pop culture and cementing the modern orchestra as something cinematic. His legacy is one that few artists ever achieve. And yet, his music is not his only legacy. John’s youngest son is Joseph, who also happens to be the frontman of Toto. Joseph Williams is one of those guys who puts it all out there when…

ALBUM REVIEW: I Found The Sun Again by Steve Lukather
This is a two part review. Check out our review of Denizen Tenant by Joseph Williams. One of the greatest guitarists of all time is a man you probably don’t know by name. He’s played on over 1,500 records for names like Michael Jackson, Lionel Richie, Elton John, Kenny Rogers, Cher… and that’s not even the highlights. Chances are one of your favorite 80’s tracks has him on it. Steve Lukather, ladies and gentlemen. is a living legend. And then there’s Toto. TOTO, MAN!!! For four decades, Luke’s been the lead guitarist for the band that spawned “Africa,” “Rosanna,” “Hold The Line,” and more. Anytime the man plays, it’s exciting.…

REVIEW: Superman & Lois 1×01: Pilot – It’s a Lois and Clark Solo Series, baby!
It’s 2021, y’all, and Lois Lane STILL doesn’t have a solo movie. On the other hand, it’s 2021 and Lois Lane has a co-staring TV Show now! That’s what you call loosing the battle but winning the war. Superman & Lois is the latest take on DC’s man in tights. Part of the Arrowverse, the show was developed by Todd Helbing and Greg Berlanti and stars Tyler Hoechlin as Clark Kent, Elizabeth Tulloch as Lois Lane, and Jordan Elsass & Alex Garfin as their sons Jonathan & Jordan. The show has a different feel from most Arrowverse-fare. It’s presented in anamorphic widescreen, making the show look like you’re watching a…

REVIEW: Super Mario 3D World + Bowser’s Fury
Considering the lackluster sales of the Wii U, it is not surprising that Nintendo thought it was necessary to port the “bigger” titles from that console generation to the Nintendo Switch. Just look at the current best-seller for Switch, Mario Kart 8 Deluxe, and you can see that this legendary company knows what it is doing with its IP. Which made it just a matter of time before Super Mario 3D World joined the fray of games being ported to the Switch. Unlike previous ports, however, this one arrives with an expansion called Bowser’s Fury (something I will go over later in this review). The general basis of Super Mario…

The Mandalorian (2×07 and 2×08)- “The Believer/The Rescue” Written by: Rick Famuyiwa (2×07) Jon Favreau (2×08) Directed by: Rick Famuyiwa (2×07) Peyton Reed (2×08) Welcome to the home stretch. The Believer We open in a scrapyard that apparently doubles as the New Republic prison holding Mayfeld. He’s released in Cara Dune’s custody. While he seems happy to be released he’s first confused and terrified to find that Cara’s running with Boba Fett and Mando. They need him for his knowledge of Imperial codes and procedures to help them get a line on Moff Gideon’s cruiser in exchange for some leniency from the Republic. He asks them to take him to…

THE MANDALORIAN SPOILER Review: Episodes 2×05 and 2×06- “The Jedi/The Tragedy”
The Mandalorian (2×05 and 2×06)- “The Jedi/The Tragedy” Written by: Dave Filoni (2×05) Jon Favreau (2×06) Directed by: Dave Filoni (2×05) Robert Rodriguez (2×06) So, did anything related to Mandalorian happen while I was away… Hmm, I’m just going to review the next pair of episodes and let that sort itself out. The Jedi We open of some sort of village and it doesn’t look good. Someone’s ringing a big alarm bell and there’s masked troops running to and fro. I wonder what’s happening- That would do it, I reckon. This village seems to have crossed a Jedi with twin lightsabers. White-bladed lightsabers, that’s a new one. The woman in…

REVIEW: Willy’s Wonderland (2021) – The Best Movie Ever
This is a spoiler free review. I’ve been a fan of Five Nights at Freddy’s since Markiplier and MatPat started flooding YouTube with jump scare footage. The indie horror games created by Scott Cawthon played a huge role in reviving the childhood horrors of Chuck E. Cheese. Animatronic horror has seen a revival as a result, with a prominent example being The Banana Splits Movie, which reintroduced the Hanna-Barbera characters as serial killers. The most recent addition to this weird subgenre is Willy’s Wonderland. I saw the trailer for it a while back was intrigued, but it wasn’t exactly on my radar until I saw a clip from the movie…

SPOILER REVIEW: Limetown (TV series)
When it first hit the scene in 2015, Limetown was the podcast everyone was talking about. It was hip, it was mysterious, it was exciting; part of the first wave of true crime podcasts. What made Limetown unique was that it was fictional, yet oh so close to reality; many listeners were shocked to find out it wasn’t real at all. I reviewed the first season back then and gave it a solid 5/5 stars. Fast forward to 2019, and the series was adapted for television by Facebook Watch and the team at Iron Ocean Productions. While I missed the show during its original run, it recently made its way…

THE MANDALORIAN SPOILER Review: Episodes 2×03 and 2×04- “The Heiress/The Siege”
The Mandalorian (2×03 and 2×04)- “The Heiress/The Siege” Written by: Jon Favreau Directed by: Bryce Dallas Howard (2×03) Carl Weathers (2×04) Episodes three and four, here’s hoping more happens than the last episode. The Heiress The episode opens with the Razor Crest limping to Trask. Mando basically has to drop out of orbit like a rock and then hope his braking thrusters work and it almost works. They land on the pad and then gracefully fall into the ocean. That’s probably going to drive up repair costs. But it’s okay since the Frog woman is happily reunited with her mate. Well that’s good, now maybe Mando can get some answers. …
