With the finale of WandaVision less than a week away, Nick and I spend some time reflecting on episode 8 and what it means for the character of Wanda within the entire MCU. We also spend some…

Six months ago, Gillian Robespierre wasn’t on my radar, but flash forward to now, I’ve watched her entire small yet unbelievably brilliant filmography, including both limited series she has worked on (A Teacher and Mrs. Fletcher)…

Many former SNL titans have taken the leap to movies. MacGruber, Tommy Boy, Billy Madison, Master of Disguise, Caddyshack, National Lampoon, Talladega Nights, Baby Mama, are just the titles I can think of at the…

I’ll be honest, I’m not a big fan of top ten lists. It’s the ideal format for nonsensical clickbait articles. But this topic had been on my mind for quite a while. Like many moviegoers,…

When the opportunity arose to watch They Call Me Dr. Miami, I jumped on it faster than a half-price BBL. Dr. Miami has always been one of the most fascinating people on the internet to…

The 15th of February marked the 30th anniversary of Nothing but Trouble, which to date, is Dan Aykroyd’s only directorial feature. Hailed as both a critical and commercial flop at the time, I do have…

A man sits on a bench, wrapped in a coat he’s owned for years. He rests his feet at the head of Jaffa Street in Jerusalem. A tour guide comes along, decked to the nines…

This week, Martin Scorsese again shook Marvel Twitter to its core with an essay filled with controversial statements. Well, not exactly filled or controversial, but an uproar it caused nonetheless. Nick and I offer our…

For all the griping we do collectively when child performances go wrong, we don’t often give them enough praise when they go right. Sure, even the best actors can struggle to connect with an unsteady…

Occupation: Rainfall comes to us from the mind of writer/director Luke Sparke and is the sequel to Sparke’s previous film, Occupation. Picking up two years after aliens have landed on Earth, a group of Aussie…

It’s been a considerable amount of time since I finished watching Test Pattern and I am still in shock. Although I am not American, I am very familiar with the themes of this movie: the…

Ladies and gentlemen, it’s time for another Nicolas Cage vehicle. What’s it going to be this time? Is it going to be some forgettable VOD schlock like A Score to Settle? Or is he actually…

Tired of all the awards bodies awarding the same films over and over? Well, how about an entirely unconventional awards ceremony, presented in a single article, sourced from a voting pool of one? This is…

The Silence of the Lambs scares the living daylights out of me. Anthony Hopkins is possibly the most terrifying actor to exist. I’m not sure if he should take that as a compliment or not, but…
