I’ll admit “Nepenthe” was the one episode of Star Trek: Picard that I was the most wary of watching this season, largely because I feared it would just turn into one giant nostalgia bomb – stalling out the plot and making me wish for things (characters, plotlines, more nostalgia) that the series is never going […]
After last week’s weighty (but fun) outing, Star Trek: Picard decided it was time to finally start pushing it’s relatively thin narrative forward at warp speed with the plot-packed “The Impossible Box.” After spending half the season talking about saving Soji and the extreme difficulty such a rescue attempt would present, that was shockingly simple, […]
After last week’s episode of Star Trek: Picard, I said that the series would live and die on the ability of the cast to perform at the same high level as Patrick Stewart. “The End is the Beginning” once again drove this point home, as every actor who shared a scene with Stewart rose to […]

It was a series which attracted some great filmmakers who got to work with some of the best source material comic books have to offer. The film series has […]
The legendary King of the Britons and the myths surrounding him have seen many iterations in popular culture. The Kid Who Would Be King is a modernised version of the legends in a delightful package for children. A long time ago Britain was a divided land that was only united when Arthur Pendragon pulls out Excalibur from the stone. With […]
