Congratulations everyone, we’ve survived yet another year. It wasn’t easy, and just as it has been for the last few years, things just seem to be getting worse and worse, but we made it. True, things in 2020 have already become as bleak as possible, witnessing […]
Being a movie fan in what is generally considered a fly-over state can be a tad frustrating at times, and especially at the end of the year. Because, right at the tail end of any given year a bunch of high-quality films, potential awards contenders usually, are […]
Well, it’s time to talk about Star Wars again. And, unfortunately, it’s not time to discuss something fun like the Mandalorian, instead it’s time to dig into the supposed finale of the Skywalker saga, the definitive ending of the Star Wars franchise as we know it, the Rise of Skywalker.
