I'm writing this largely in reaction to the reaction a lot of folks have had to The Last Jedi. Way too many people are mad on the internet because writer/director Rian Johnson did not go with wish fulfillment of any of the multiple fan fiction speculation theories that were out there for the last two … Continue reading Don’t Trust the Fans!
TV Series Review – The Punisher
The Punisher was postponed until November because of the Las Vegas shooting tragedy; the people in charge rightfully figured that releasing a show centered around a guy who shoots people at that time was a bad idea. So we got in November instead. I was reluctant to watch at first regardless because I've always found … Continue reading TV Series Review – The Punisher
Wrestling Top Fives of 2017
2017 is winding down, so I'm going to attempt once again to do some year in review stuff. Maybe I'll actually finish it this time.

TV Series Review – The Defenders
OK, I'm a few months late here but I finally got around to checking out The Defenders.

Movie Review – The Marine 4
So why on Earth would I watch the fourth installment of a straight to video movie series? And why on Earth am I actually reviewing it? Well, why not? The other WWE film reviews I've done here have been fairly popular as far you guys clicking on them, my DVR was empty, and I had … Continue reading Movie Review – The Marine 4

Movie Review – Thor: Ragnarok
Thor: Ragnarok is the third bite at the apple for Marvel Studios with Thor after two installments that were ok at best. It centers around an invasion of Thor's home of Asgard by Hela the goddess of death, his secret sister who'd been imprisioned by their father Odin. On his way to deal with Hela … Continue reading Movie Review – Thor: Ragnarok
Retro Recap – Unforgiven 1998
Retro recap time! I got the urge to do an Attitude Era recap as way of pointing out just how not so awesome it could be at times. The Attitude Era gets way too much credit today, especially by people who like to crap on today's product. So here we are in 1998, in the … Continue reading Retro Recap – Unforgiven 1998
