Well, it appears I was correct in my guess as to just what Kamala was going to do during her journey to the past – help create the stars that would send Sana to her father, thus setting in motion her own future. A bit of a time travel paradox and all that, but still […]

Ms. Marvel – Seeing Red Review
One of the things I love so much about Ms. Marvel is that it’s not simply concerned with putting the pieces in place for the next MCU installment. Sure, we’re getting to know a character who will be involved in at least one upcoming MCU film (2023’s The Marvels, although should the bangle turn out […]
Ms. Marvel – Destined Review
Three episodes in and Marvel finally lets us in on just what is going on with Kamala and her bangle – but not without also giving us another wholly delightful, well-written, and smartly acted episode of television around that particular piece of exposition. This is how you tell a limited story, folks. We learned a […]
Obi-Wan Kenobi – Part VI Review
When we arrive at the end of a series – or season – of television, one of the questions a critic asks of the series is “Why?” Why did it end the way it did? Why did we go on that particular journey with those characters? Why did this story need to be told? And […]
Lightyear Review
Toy Story was the film that showed Pixar was a studio to be reckoned with. One of the most popular characters was Buzz Lightyear and the Space Ranger which has earned a spin-off film. Buzz Lightyear (Chris Evans) and a crew of space colonisers get stranded on another planet after Buzz accidentally crashed the ship. Buzz tries to […]
Ms. Marvel – Crushed Review
Color me impressed: It’s hard to pull off as complete a premiere episode as Ms. Marvel did last week – one where the characters are clear, distinct, and interesting and the cast already feels at home in their skin. But to do it again with the second episode of the series – a point where […]
Obi-Wan Kenobi – Part IV Review
When Obi-Wan Kenobi was about to be released, much was made in the TV critic sector over claims from star Ewan McGregor that the series would be a “six-hour movie.” Now, for TV critics, hearing a star or a showrunner make such a proclamation is hardly new – it is a constant refrain, especially when […]
Ms. Marvel – Generation Why Review
Joy. That’s the word that came to mind again and again while watching “Generation Why,” the first installment of the new MCU/Disney+ miniseries Ms. Marvel. Bright, fun, and honest, the coming-of-age story of Kamala Kahn (the future Ms. Marvel of the title) already feels like a different journey in the Marvel universe. More analogous to […]
Obi-Wan Kenobi – Episode Three Review
Well, we’ve reached the midway point of Obi-Wan Kenobi, and things are already starting to ramp up for the final showdown (or, rather, this final showdown – since we all know that actual final showdown will happen in about nine years) between Obi-Wan and Anakin. Now that we’ve seen just how determined Anakin remains at […]
Moon Knight – Gods and Monsters Review
What a fitting end to a disappointing series. In fact, it was such a disappointing ending that I genuinely didn’t realize it was the end of the episode until the credits began rolling – that’s how anticlimactic and messy the episode was. We were robbed of the true showdown between Moon Knight and Harrow/Ammit that […]
