I skipped this one at the theater. I honestly thought this would be a jump the shark moment for the franchise, and that it would have been best to shut it down after Fast 7. That was mostly because I considered Paul Walker's untimely death a turning point that would render the team chemistry null … Continue reading Movie Review – Fate of the Furious
Movie Review – Spider-Man: Homecoming
Let me start off by saying I really didn't want this movie to be made. I wanted the Andrew Garfield run to get one more movie and a proper finish, and then they could do whatever they wanted to fit the character into the MCU. So in viewing and reviewing this, I'm admittedly not starting … Continue reading Movie Review – Spider-Man: Homecoming
Thoughts on Great Balls of Fire
When the name of this show was announced, we all facepalmed. Seriously? Great Balls of Fire? It was almost like Vince was trying to see just how loony he could get and how we'd react. But then the buildup came, and things didn't look so crazy. And as the card took it's final shape, it … Continue reading Thoughts on Great Balls of Fire
Movie Review – Cars 3
I don't review a lot of animated movies, because quite frankly most of them aren't made for me. I go see plenty of them with my kids, but from so many of them are geared strictly towards kids and aren't very good from an adult standpoint so why bother? But occasionally one will resonate with … Continue reading Movie Review – Cars 3
Joshua Tree 30th Anniversary Show
Anyone who has talked with me about music knows that U2 is my favorite group. They've been around as long as I've been alive, but they really hit their stride while I was growing up in the 80s and have continued on since then. And if you know anything about them you know that their … Continue reading Joshua Tree 30th Anniversary Show
Money in the Bank thoughts
Well that was an emotionally triggering show last night to say the least. A lot of the takes I've seen are judging the entire show based on the end of the opening match, which I think is a mistake. I personally don't find that finish all that objectionable, but I do see the argument people … Continue reading Money in the Bank thoughts
Awesome Con 2017
I did Awesome Con in Washington again this year. I didn't get as many shots this year as in years past but I got a few that I'll put on my Facebook page. As always, my rules for cons are as follows: 1. Wear comfortable shoes, as you will be doing a lot of walking. … Continue reading Awesome Con 2017
RIP Adam West
My first superhero was Batman. I used to watch reruns of the old Batman show starring Adam West every afternoon when I was three and four years old, and one of my first toys was a Batmobile. And I was clearly wasn't the only one, as many people in my age group got introduced to … Continue reading RIP Adam West
Retro Recap – WCW Beach Blast 1992
The year was 1992, and WCW was still going through life without Ric Flair. The first few months were a disaster of course but they managed to rebound pretty nicely when 1991 closed out and moved into 1992. Superbrawl II in February was a good show, and Wrestle War in May saw a successful return … Continue reading Retro Recap – WCW Beach Blast 1992
Extreme Rules 2017 Recap
I was in the building for this one; Baltimore has been a good wrestling town for as long as I can remember and they/we didn't disappoint this time either. Before I get into the show a few things: The 'Delete!' chants were huge, so much that my seven year old son picked it up real … Continue reading Extreme Rules 2017 Recap
