Shin Kamen Rider Trailer Released
H E N S H I N ! ! ! Shin Kamen Rider hits theaters in Japan on 18, March 2023. This probably means that I’ll get to watch it around Autumn of 2023. That’s cool, I can wait. While I haven’t been as excited for this movie as I was for Shin Ultraman, I am […]
Jem and the Holograms (2015)
So, as of this posting I have been around our star almost fifty-three times. I was around when the original Jem and the Holograms was aired on television. I said all of that to say this… I really enjoyed the 2015 live-action re-imagining of the old cartoon. The whole thing felt current, even today. This […]
Welcome to the 23rd Century — via Master Mix Movies
Logan’s Run was the most ambitious science fiction film made at the time. Bare in mind this was 1 year before Star Wars dominated the big screen. So their depiction of a futuristic society is a bit more cheesy with a space age soundtrack from Jerry Goldsmith, colorful costumes, and clean sets made from repurposed […] […]

’We’re Not Going to Make Every Single Person Happy’
Let the grasping of pearls commence. James Gunn let the world know that the new DC cinematic universe won’t be everything to everyone. This is great! They want to come up with an actual direction and move forward. Great. The days of me being emotionally invested in things that are just meant to be consumed […]
