“Just Jen,” the sixth installment in She-Hulk’s first season was an interesting episode. Not so much interesting in terms of exploring Jen’s growing attachment to her hulked out persona. Or even interesting as a story. But interesting in that the episode’s B-plot (that would be Mallory and Nikki working to get Mr. Immortal out from […]
In the interest of honest reviewing, I feel that I should start this review of Andor off with the statement that I wasn’t a fan of Rogue One. I certainly didn’t hate it – I appreciated that the story was allowed to go to darker places than most Star Wars properties and I really liked […]
Rick and Morty are having their second Thanksgiving episode. This episode sees Space Beth joining the Smith family for the holiday, resulting in emotional upheaval for the family. Space Beth comes to Earth to spend time with the Smiths. Space Beth and Earth Beth get close to each other and find they are a perfect match. […]
We’ve come to the end of an age within House of the Dragon – with Rhaenyra wed to Ser Laenor Velaryon, Queen Alicent all but raising her Hightower bannermen up against Rhaenyra’s claim to the throne (and at her wedding rehearsal dinner, no less), Daemon killing his wife and freeing himself to make a claim […]
Stop me if you’ve heard this one before – a classic 80s/early 90s sitcom has struck a chord with the ascending adults of a young generation (maybe they recall it fondly from their childhood, maybe they found it again on streaming, maybe they are just wondering what ever happened that that actor . . .) […]
As The Rings of Power‘s narrative continues to unspool, I find that I continue to feel much more of a connection to two of the story arcs – namely the Elrond/Prince Durin sections and wherever Galadriel might be living at the moment (her scenes with the Queen Regent Míriel this week were particularly interesting as […]
This week’s installment of She-Hulk didn’t really move the dial in terms of storytelling all that much – yes, we resolved the Titania trademark lawsuit quickly and with only minimal bruising to Jen’s ego – but it was a necessary step in terms of providing a look into several of the show’s supporting characters as […]
Following on from the lore-heavy “Solaricks,” the second episode of Rick and Morty’s sixth season was more of a standalone affair. Alien terrorists have attacked Blips and Chitz. This happened at the worst possible time because Morty ends up trapped in Roy: A Life Well Lived and his mind split across all the NPCs. Rick goes into the […]
Well, it took three and a half episodes, but House of the Dragon finally decided to do some work in crafting characters and relationships beyond simply putting one dimensional characters in a room, refusing to let them actually have a conversation, and then jumping two years into the future and ignoring any and all questions […]
Our latest journey into the realm of Middle Earth (or, rather, Middle Earth and the island of Numenor, as the kingdom no longer communes with their forbearers within Middle Earth) brought more of the same for the series (albeit with 100% fewer dwarf interactions, which is a major downgrade in my book). The Elves and […]
