MORBIUS [Review]: A Morbid Bore.

As the MCU continues dealing with the fallout of a broken multiverse thanks to Loki and Peter Parker, Sony's Spider-lessverse continues to limp along. Following October’s hilarious Venom: Let There Be Carnage comes the yawn-fest known as Morbius... https://youtu.be/oZ6iiRrz1SY For those unfamiliar, Jared Leto (Suicide Squad, House of Gucci) plays Michael Morbius, a doctor with …

ELDEN RING [Review]: My Favorite Video Game of All-Time.

When Elden Ring was revealed, it was a very short teaser. But, seeing FromSoftware slapped on that teaser was all I needed to get hyped. If you’re a lover of Souls games, you know this exact sentiment. When it was announced that Elden Ring would be an open world game, I had high expectations. Let’s …

EVERYTHING EVERYWHERE ALL AT ONCE [Review]: Infinite Possibilities In Infinite Combinations.

At some point during the end of the third act of directing duo Daniel Scheinert and Dan Kwan (known collectively simply as Daniels) sophomore film, Everything Everywhere All At Once, there is a short sequence of two rocks --- one of which is wearing googly eyes --- as one tumbles over the edge of a …

WWE 2K22 [Review]: It Hits Adequate.

WWE 2K22 is a good game. If you enjoyed WWE 2K19 as much as I did (yeah, 19.. not 2K20.. ugh), then there's no doubt that you're going to pour many hours, days and months into the latest WWE video game. 2K22 is also the first true wrasslin' title on current gen consoles -- a …

THE BATMAN [Review]: Nearly Puuurrrfect.

For over 30 years, Batman ’89 and Michael Keaton have stood the test of time as my favorites of the Batman franchise, but last night, Matt Reeves’ The Batman (even surprisingly to me!) now takes the top spot. The Batman takes sharp deviation from any of its predecessors and offers a super-noir, pulse-pounding, cinematic thriller, …

HORIZON FORBIDDEN WEST [Review]: A Beautiful, Bloated Adventure.

When Horizon Zero Dawn didn’t win GOTY in 2017, I teared up. When I revisited Zero Dawn in preparation for the sequel, I discovered the game wasn’t as strong as I remembered. I figured that perception stemmed from the game’s age showing; but, after playing Horizon Forbidden West, I realized that maybe this open world …

"Behold--the MEGAB.A.T.!" Oh, tell me you wouldn't want this. There are already near foot-tall B.A.T.s from Super7, as well as a forthcoming …

ACTION ARCADE WRESTLING [Review]: No World Order.

So this game is awful. My God. It is rough being a wrestling fan if all you have is a Nintendo Switch. There's the nightmare that is WWE 2K18 (that runs slower than Otis jogging through oatmeal) and Retromania Wrestling, which is great for a day or two, then it hits you: "All the wrestlers …
