Wonder Man Review
I have to say, when I was watching Iron Man 3 in the theater, I never imagined it would still be relevant within the MCU all these years later. And I imagine most Marvel fans felt the same – seeing as that film was polarizing at the time and certainly hasn’t aged much better. But […]
Is This Thing On? Review
Is This Thing On? is Bradley Cooper’s third film as a director, this time looking at divorce, relationships and stand-up comedy. Alex and Tess Novak (Will Arnett and Laura Dern) separate after 20 years of marriage. They need to figure out what to do with their lives now that they are apart. Alex finds an […]
Iron Lung Review
Until a few weeks ago, I’d never heard of the video game Iron Lung. Neither had I heard of the YouTube channel Markiplier, much less Mark Fischbach, whose name it bears. His feature film debut (which he wrote, directed, edited, and starred in) only came to my attention as it gained press for its impressive distribution […]

Shrinking Season Three Review
Shrinking is the perfect example of what happens when a good show gets the time to work out the kinks early, establish characters, relationships, and build a world, and then gets the chance to run with it all. Is Shrinking perfect in its third season? No, it’s not – which is almost fitting for a […]
A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms – Hard Salt Beef Review
The interesting thing about a show like A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms is that it isn’t concerned with an ever-longer list of characters. We have our two central characters – Dunk and Egg – and then the rest of the folks at the tourney. Now, some of those folk – including the ones we […]
