Break Time Reviews
Prequels have an inherent problem that no other movies do. Viewers already know the fates of the main characters. This is especially problematic in action movies, where the characters are in constant danger. This issue runs even deeper with Black Widow, the latest entry into the MCU – and first since SPIDER-MAN: NO WAY HOME […]
By all accounts, movies are back, so I’ve got to get back on that review train. I finally got around to F9 the other day, with (hopefully) many more to come. But there are several movies that I didn’t get to that I want to cover quickly while I still have the chance. LUCA Disney’s […]
Vuna No preamble, let’s just jump right into this week’s Survivor SA episode. Thoriso is making moves to get herself out of the bottom of the Vuna tribe. She approaches Anesu about helping her convince Tyson to part with the parchment – just the parchment – for his idol, so she can try to convince […]
After a week off, I’m back and raring to go for more Survivor SA. I was out of town for a wedding last weekend, and couldn’t find time to get a recap out once I got back. Hopefully you didn’t miss me too much. Camp raid We’ll start off at Zamba, as Dino reads Tree […]
Before we get into this week’s Survivor SA episode, I have some corrections to make from last week’s recap. I had a couple mistakes with how Immunity Island worked. By accepting the Stay and Play option, you give up your vote regardless on whether or not you win the challenge. The first episode was a […]
We’re back baby!!!! I was getting some serious Michael Jordan comteback vibes with the Survivor SA season 8 premiere. Filmed locally in South Africa on the Wild Coast – and entirely in secret – Immunity Island is the first of the major English-speaking versions of Survivor to return. Survivor Australia and the flagship U.S. version […]
It’s Oscars time, baby! The Super Bowl of movie awards. Possibly the wackiest award season ever is finally coming to a close on Sunday night. And after all the delays and the Zoom awards shows and the (honestly dumb and unnecessary) extended awards eligibility window, it’s time to preview one of my favorite nights of […]
Well folks, Disney did it again. Raya and the Last Dragon is yet another knockout. Fantastic animation, great characters, thrilling action sequences, and just the right amount of humor. Also, DRAGONS! You can’t go wrong with dragons. Centuries ago, in the world of Kumandra, dragons lived harmoniously with humans, bringing prosperity to all of Kumandra’s […]
With the news that both Australian Survivor and Survivor South Africa will be back in 2021 (AU dates are still TBA, while SA will premiere in June), now’s the perfect time to jump onboard with these fantastic international iterations of our beloved Survivor. Sadly, Survivor New Zealand has been shelved and there don’t appear to […]
One of my unabashed obsessions is the Christmas Prince movie series on Netflix. The trilogy (fingers crossed for unlimited future installments) answers the question, “What would a Netflix-produced version of a Hallmark Christmas movie look like?” And the answer to that, my friends, is that it looks glorious. From 2017-2019, Netflix has released a new […]
