I’m trying to vary the topics I cover for Comic Book Wednesday. I was originally going to do a follow up to blog from last week, where I spoke about Spider-Gwen, but I decided that it’s possibly better to leave that for at least another week and, since I’ve already covered movies from both Marvel […]
Detroit: The Verdict
Having been intrigued by the trailers, and hearing nothing but good things about the reviews, when given the opportunity to go with a friend to see Detroit I wasn’t about to turn it down. I’ll admit that going in I didn’t know much about the plot, other than it was based around the 1967 Detroit […]
Atomic Blonde: The Verdict
Despite being very intrigued by the advertising for this movie when I first saw the trailers for it I almost missed it entirely in the theatres. Based on the worldwide gross I’m going to assume that I’m not the only one. With a cast led by Charlize Theron, and James McAvoy playing one of the […]
Why Marvel Should Invest in Spider-Gwen (Comic Book Wednesday)
With the release of Spider-Gwen #23 today (which I unfortunately can’t read yet due to having no comic shops nearby anymore, but it’ll arrive in the mail soon) I thought next week I’d write about this current Spider-Gwen story arc and my thoughts, including the latest issue. But today is Comic Book Wednesday and thus […]
Game of Thrones: Talking Points (Season 7, Episode 7)
It’s the episode we’ve spent the last six weeks building up toward, full of moments the world is still talking about the following evening and will likely remain talking about for days to come. Yes, apparently it was leaked by hackers but that didn’t stop it being the must-talk-about event of last night, with moments […]
Ghost In The Shell: The Verdict
With the Blu-ray and DVD release of this movie still being reasonably recent, and it being one of the movies I’d wanted to see in the cinema this year and never got around to seeing (partly due to having nobody to go to the cinema with) I recently decided to sit down and watch this […]
Game of Thrones Season Finale: Pink Prognostication
We’re just a few days away and I have spoken to so many people since this week’s Game of Thrones: Talking Points that I thought I’d write something else Game of Thrones related, because if you can’t get excited over the season finale then there’s just something not right about you! Here I’m about to […]
The Hitman’s Bodyguard: The Verdict
I saw The Hitman’s Bodyguard in the cinema a few nights ago with a friend, and decided I’d put up some thoughts about the movie. I’m still working on the format of this “movie review” style blog entry, so this is my first attempt at one. The Setup The movie follows lead character Michael Bryce […]
Comic Book Wednesday – Spider-Man: Homecoming & It’s Possible Sequel(s)
It’s another Wednesday, it’s another week that I looked at the comics on sale and it’s another week that I let out a little sigh and only ordered one. Figured I wouldn’t dedicate a whole blog to that one comic, nor would I dedicate a whole blog to why I’m not buying more comics at […]
Game of Thrones: Talking Points (Season 7, Episode 6)
The penultimate episode of a season rarely disappoints us, but with the shorter format this year I wondered if they were going to save the best until last. If they did, it’ll have to be something truly special to beat out this week, because this week was something special. Perhaps it wasn’t “Battle of the […]
