AVENGERS – INFINITY WAR [4DX Impressions & Podcast Review]: Strangers in the Night.

Before jumping into the Cosmos of moving chairs and the gimmick effects that support them, I'd like to point out that watching Avengers: Infinity War in 3D is a crisp affair that adds more weight to reaction shots (one Rocket response in 3D in parficular was GREAT, Thanos is all the more menacing). Honestly, you …

GHOST STORIES [Movie Review]: Fishy, Chippy Horror.

I KILL GIANTS [Review]: Can You Embrace This?

In all my time reading comics, I've read my fair share of stories that have made me emotional or made me cry, but none have left me emotionally wrecked the way I Kill Giants, a 2008 Image limited series by Joe Kelly and Ken Niimura, did. It's a high fantasy coming of age story that …

READY PLAYER ONE [Review]: Aiming to ‘1-Up’ the Box Office.

For those who haven't read the book, Ready Player One is the story of a dystopian future in which the world has found escape in the elaborate virtual reality known as OASIS. It's in James Halliday's creation where most of the story takes place, as you follow Wade Watts's (Tye Sheridan) quest to win a …
