Ahoy-hoy, everyone! I just wanted to engage in a brief bit of unabashed self-promotion, but I promise you that I wouldn’t do it if it didn’t involve the opportunity to read something really awesome that’s right in the wheelhouse of … Continue reading Dude! It’s the oral history of DUDES!
While there are many wonderful, heartwarming Christmas movies out there, there are probably ten times as many sappy ones out there that your wife, mother and grandmother binge watch each year (mostly one Hallmark and Lifetime). In this seasonal series, … Continue reading Sappy Christmas Movies: The Ultimate Gift (Now With South American Rebels!)
(This article was written last year on the old site) There are several movies that take place throughout an entire year, and that includes Christmas, but you wouldn’t consider them Christmas movies.

If you ask a contemporary fan to compile a list of the top five “best” superhero movies, they will likely mostly be movies made after 2000’s X-Men. I’m thinking the consensus picks are probably The Dark Knight, Spider-Man 2, one … Continue reading Before Capes Were Cool #2: Superman: The Movie (1978)
Back on the old site, I wrote a few articles following a rewatch of the Marvel Cinamatic Universe. I wrote this as a review, but I adjusted it for the new site.

The Adkins Diet is a podcast in which my wife and I attempt to watch and discuss every movie featuring prolific but underappreciated actor/martial artist/ass-kicker Scott Adkins. For this episode we watched the 2009 action film The Tournament. Every seven … Continue reading The Adkins Diet Ep. 8 – The Tournament
Since we’re on a new site now, I thought it would be fun to revive the “Combine two movie titles to make a new one” game. For those that haven’t played/weren’t here when I last did it, the rules are … Continue reading Combine Two Movie Titles to Make a New One
You may know Lady Bird as the film which recently became the best reviewed film on Rotten Tomatoes of all time (I’m just happy it’s no longer Toy Story 2, the disappointing followup that was redone years later in a far superior film). … Continue reading Movie Reviews: Lady Bird
Crazy, Stupid, Love.’s mission is to charm your pants off, featuring a peak Steve Carell, the always amazing Julianne Moore, and the first time pairing of cinematic power couple Emma Stone and Ryan Gosling. It also manages to pull of … Continue reading Sexy Ryan Gosling Makes A Sexy Cocktail in “Crazy, Stupid, Love.”
Before I went to bed last night, I caught the last half of RoboCop 2 on El Rey. It’s a film of lesser quality compared to the first film, but younger me always thought it was pretty good because it had … Continue reading Remake A Movie In Your Vision

I feel safe saying 1983 was the weakest year in the 34 years we’ve done Snubby Awards for. (I love Return of the Jedi and Trading Places as much as the next guy, but are they really Oscar-worthy?) But there’s still some … Continue reading Snubby Awards: 1983 Results/1982 Nominations

As a horror fan, I have to admit that, despite myself, I’m a bit jaded. I don’t want to be, but it just sort of happens. You can only see so many zombies get disemboweled before the fear you once … Continue reading Lake Mungo (2008)
In the wake of the release of Justice League, talk of how to fix the DCEU has become a thing on the geekier corners of the internet. Because I am a shameless rider of coattails I’d like to present my … Continue reading How Hawkgirl Could Have Saved the DCEU: A Vision From a Better World
