A Shrine to Pop Culture Obsessiveness. With Lots of Spoilers

2003 – Oldboy

By Patrick D Gaertner on September 8, 2019 • ( Leave a comment )

  Every now and then we get some real tonal whiplash here on Cinematic Century. It makes sense, it’s not like my tastes are completely uniform, and I only like one type of movies, but it can also be a littler jarring, both for the reader and for […]

Issue 608 – “Anarky in Gotham City – Part One: Letters to the Editor”

By Patrick D Gaertner on September 7, 2019 • ( Leave a comment )

  Hi there everyone, and welcome back to yet another installment of Bat Signal, my never-ending quest to read every single issue of Detective Comics, in random order, and with essentially no context. And, we’re kind of dealing with that last aspect again this week. Last week we talked about […]

The Nightingale and the Horror of Entitlement

By Patrick D Gaertner on September 5, 2019 • ( Leave a comment )

  We’ve spent a lot of this year discussing the sophomore features directors who made quite a splash with their horror debuts. It’s something that you wouldn’t think we’d be discussing this much, but weirdly I can think of three movies that fit that specific dynamic. Jordan Peele […]

2002 – Catch Me If You Can

By Patrick D Gaertner on September 1, 2019 • ( Leave a comment )

  I end up talking about a lot of different directors during this Cinematic Century project, some of whom get brought up several times. For the most part, this has taken the form of a director having a hot streak, and knocking out several years worth of favorite […]

Issue 701 – “Legacy, Part Six: Gotham’s Scourge”

By Patrick D Gaertner on August 31, 2019 • ( Leave a comment )

  Hello everyone, and welcome back to yet another installment of Bat Signal, my endless quest to read every issue of Detective Comics, in random order, and with basically no context. And, boy oh boy is that last element going to come into play with this issue. Because it just […]

That Time the Punisher Almost Killed Archie

By Patrick D Gaertner on August 30, 2019 • ( Leave a comment )

  Well folks, we’re closing out another months of Marvel Madness posts featuring the weird world of inter-company cross-overs. We’ve talked about massive adventures featuring Marvel and DC’s biggest characters fighting crime together, and they’ve both been a whole lot of fun. So, to cap the month off, […]

A Conspiracy of Paper and the Historical Detective

By Patrick D Gaertner on August 28, 2019 • ( Leave a comment )

  As someone who loves to read, and who is always on the hunt for some new and interesting book to check out, I often find myself relying on any number of potential sources. I take recommendations, check out best-sellers, and sometimes even seek out authors who I’m […]

Ready or Not and the Horror of the Rich

By Patrick D Gaertner on August 27, 2019 • ( 2 Comments )

  As I’ve previously discussed, the summer of 2019 has been fairly bereft of solid movies. We’ve had some great indie stuff, and a few outliers, but by and large it has been far from a sure thing heading into the theaters this summer. Hell, there’s even been […]

2001 – Spirited Away

By Patrick D Gaertner on August 25, 2019 • ( Leave a comment )

  I feel like no matter what movie I chose as my favorite film of 2001, it was going to be a bit of a downstep after last week. We talked about what may be my favorite film of all time last week, from a year full of […]

Issue 320 – “The Mummy Crime-Fighters”

By Patrick D Gaertner on August 24, 2019 • ( Leave a comment )

    Hello everyone, and welcome back to yet another installment of Bat Signal, my never-ending quest to read every single issue of Detective Comics, in random order, and with basically no context. And folks, we have an absolute fever dream of an issue to talk about today. I’ve gotten […]
