VICE PRINCIPALS [Review]: Sweater Vests 4 Ever.

HBO premiered their newest comedy series, Vice Principals, last night. I was sold on the show mainly on the strength of its two leads -- Eastbound & Down's Danny McBride, and The Shield's Walton Goggins -- but was pleasantly surprised by the content as well... https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=58XtN9ECoPg When a no-nonsense principal (What About Bob's Bill Murray) retires to take …

GHOSTBUSTERS [Review]: Who You Gonna.. Snapchat?

If there is one film that has divided the internet, then it's Paul Feig's sort-of-but-not-really-a-remake of 1984's cult classic Ghostbusters.

SECONDS – A GRAPHIC NOVEL / ASPEN UNIVERSE – REVELATIONS [Reviews]: Time After Time.

Despite my love for Edgar Wright’s film adaptation of Scott Pilgrim vs the World, I had never read anything by Bryan Lee O’Malley before Seconds. The layout of each page is beautiful and easy on the eyes with thick white borders and each panel exploding in vibrant color. The artwork may be considered cartoony to …
