Loki – For All Time. Always. Review
So, it was Kang the Conqueror all along! Or rather, some version of Kang who saw the devastation wrought by his own Variants and took steps to orchestrate a universe in which such chaos and destruction would be banished from existence. I was on the “There’s no way they introduce Kang on a Disney+ show!” […]
Loki – Journey Into Mystery Review
The penultimate episode of any season (or even series) is usually the key piece of the story where the show puts all its ducks in a row in preparation for the finale, where all the plot threads will be tied off into a nice little bow and we, the audience, can walk away satisfied with […]
Monsters at Work Review
Disclaimer: Review based on the first two episodes I love Pixar and always have. In particular, I love Monsters Inc. In fact, it was the first movie I was obsessed with. The colorful characters and offbeat humor mixed with Pixar’s signature beautiful animation made for a truly unique movie-going experience for a budding young film […]
Loki – The Nexus Event Review
If last week’s installment of Loki was all about character, “The Nexus Event” was all about plot. And with only two episodes remaining in the series, having an episode dedicated to pushing the series towards its climax was much needed – and incredibly well executed. Nothing brings me greater joy as a viewer and as […]
Loki – Lamentis Review
The greatest strength of television is that it can provide us the chance to watch characters grow and change over the course of a longform story. This is particularly true with serialized stories, where week-to-week the plot builds upon itself while also allowing the same of the show’s characters. It’s why several seasons into a […]
Loki – The Variant Review
Things moved along at a brisk clip in this week’s installment of Loki, giving us all the remaining exposition we need to grasp just what is happening in the series, but continuing to make its delivery wholly engaging through the use of the MCU’s newest buddy team: Mobius and Loki (yeah, I never thought that […]
Loki – Glorious Purpose Review
In the realm of television (well, at least Disney+ television), the MCU is currently batting .500. While WandaVision was a definite success, The Falcon and The Winter Soldier was much more uneven and left a lot to be desired.* So, now we come to Loki, a series that takes an incredibly popular (and in the […]
Cruella Review
In recent years Disney has gone back to their animated back catalogue so they can turn these classics into live-action films. Their latest film, Cruella, focuses on one of Disney’s greatest villains and sets the record straight for her. Estella Miller (Tipper Selfert-Cleveland) is a creative, forthright, yet disruptive child. After her mother’s death, Estella […]
Raya and the Last Dragon Review
Raya and the Last Dragon sees Disney enter into the world of martial arts fantasy with their new princess being the most action ordinated heroines. 500 years ago the land of Kumandra was blighted by the Druun, cloud spirits that turn people into stone. The world was saved by the legendary dragon Sisu (Awkwafina), who used […]
