RWBY, Vol. 5 [Anime Review]: Nitty, Gritty, Social, Political.

I was not familiar -- like, at all -- with RWBY, a series by the production company Rooster Teeth (the same people behind Red Vs. Blue...of which I am familiar). Having not been familiar with the series, I was surprised at how easy it was to ease right in and get acquainted with the fantasy …

AGENTS OF S.H.I.E.L.D. [Season 5 Finale Review]: To ‘Infinity’ and Beyond.

Over the past two seasons Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. has become my absolute favorite superhero show, bar none. The character work has always been spectacular, but the storytelling and superhero action have become just as good and there's no better example of that than the season 5 finale, "The End." While this is just the season …

WESTWORLD [Season 2 Premiere Review]: Now Let Me Welcome Everybody to the Wild, Wild West…

Hard to believe that HBO’s most ambitious show this side of Game of Thrones, Westworld, aired its season finale 17 months ago, a damn near a year-and-a-half. Season One “capped” off with Dolores Abernathy (Evan Rachel Wood) plugging the good Dr. Ford at his gala, and the hosts gaining consciousness and attacking everyone. Bernard Lowe …

LEGION [Season 2, Episode 1 Review]: The Search for Waffles.

Trying to make sense of one episode of Legion is kind of like analyzing what your body experiences during a wild and vivid hallucinogenic trip (Maybe? I dunno.). Created, written, and executive produced by Noah Hawley, Legion throws the superhero genre out the window of a speeding car while laughing maniacally as it drags your …

WONDERCON 2018 [Pilot / Panel Reviews]: Lost In Space / Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.

A FIRST LOOK AT NETFLIX'S LOST IN SPACE (Saturday) - Having never watched the original series (boooooooo!!! Moody, you suck!!!), my expectations for the pilot were low heading in. What I did know from early teasers and trailers is that fans of the 50+ year Irwin Allen franchise were disappointed in the 2018 reimagining's lack …
