I’ve said it before, and I’m apparently saying it again, but we’re having an absolutely stunning summer filled with fascinatingly searing satiric films. The impetus for these films can sometimes be a little nebulous, since the actual process of making films is much more involved and time-consuming […]
Last year I got to share a truly fantastic debut novel with you all. Fred Van Lente’s Ten Dead Comedians, a retelling of Agatha Christie’s And Then There Were None, but with a group of comedians being trapped on an island and slowly being murdered. It was a whole lot […]
A couple of weeks ago I discussed a wonderful new film called Sorry to Bother You. In that article I discussed how impressively terrible the world is at the moment, and how art is starting to reflect the frustrations and anger involved in all of those issues. I […]

By this point I feel like it’s fairly clear that I’m one of the few people who have connected with Netflix’s Marvel shows. Every time I write about one of the new seasons I usually have to talk about the fact that I realize most people don’t […]
Well folks, it’s time to talk about the Marvel Cinematic Universe again. We’ve already had a hell of year when it comes to the costumes superheroics of the Marvel Universe, seeing one of their all-time greatest movies in Black Panther and the beginning of the culmination of their entire […]
