Having just finished my marathon of Star Wars so that I could enjoy the Rise of Skywalker, there was something that kind of irked me. Despite it's obvious flaws and the fact that it tries to retcon the terrible Last Jedi, there is one thing that stands out to me about the sequel trilogy, the... Continue Reading →
Comics 101 – The MCU: Iron Man
This week, I wanted to start a new inclusion into my blog as a whole, comics 101. This inclusion comes at the request of Marlee who just finished her marathon of the entire MCU with my good friend, Ryan. They finished Endgame last night and then at about 11:45 last night I was blasted with... Continue Reading →
Who Is Taskmaster?
With the release of the the final trailer for the upcoming Black Widow movie on May 1 of this year, the main villain is highlighted specifically. Now to most, he just looks like another faceless bad guy who will survive for one maybe two movies before the hero kills him. But to myself and several... Continue Reading →
Snake Eyes – The Upcoming G.I. Joe Spinoff
Recently, I've been keeping track of a new upcoming movie for one of my ( and many others) favourite G.I. Joe characters, Snake Eyes. The franchise has been on the back burner since the lackluster G.I. Joe - Retaliation from 2013, starring Dwayne Johnson, Byung-hun Lee, Adrianne Palicki, DJ Cortrona, Elodie Yung and Ray Park....

Rise of Skywalker – Please Don’t Suck…
As the days tick by and the release of the conclusion of one of the greatest movie franchises comes to an "end", expectations are high. I have made my opinion of The Last Jedi very clear on numerous occasions. Would I consider myself a butt hurt fanboy? Not really, because all of my gripes come... Continue Reading →
Top Gun: Maverick – Soaring Back Like It Never Left
I am probably not the only one who loved the 1986 Tom Cruise classic Top Gun. It was one of the movies I remember watching with both my Grandma and my mom, which was different... I guess they both loved that volleyball scene... we all know the one! That being said, Top Gun was one... Continue Reading →
Carnage – A Psycopath Unmatched
Carnage is one of the more modern characters introduced in Marvel's Spider-Man comics that rose to prominence and has remained as one of the wall crawlers greatest adversaries. His origin is kind of weird, but the villain that Carnage becomes in mostly granted thanks to the person the symbiote bonded with, notorious serial killer Cletus... Continue Reading →
Norman Osborn/Green Goblin – Greatest Spider-Man Villain
To coincide with Halloween this week I decided to push out this post about my all time favourite Spider-Man villain, the Green Goblin. He has been Spider-Man's arch nemesis since he was first introduced in The Amazing Spider-Man #14 in July 1964. To date, he has received two different big screen adaptations, one portrayed by...

Gundam Unicorn – My First Foray Into the Gundam Universe
The title isn't technically correct because there was a few brief nights in my younger years when while perusing channels late at night I would stumble onto an episode of Gundam Wing on YTV or Teletoon Late at Night, but it was definitely not on a consistent basis. Much like my friend Malcolm and mine's... Continue Reading →
Who’s Stronger – Anakin or Vader?
I posed this question to a bunch of my friends and colleagues to try and get a consensus as to who they believe is the stronger of the two. I purposefully left the question open ended so that most people would weigh their individual acts and feats against the other to make their determination, not... Continue Reading →
