Disney’s latest animated feature, Wish, arrives at an important moment for the iconic company. October 16 of this year marked the 100th anniversary of the Walt Disney Studio. Over the past century, Disney has been of the leaders in animation, with each release feeling like a special moment. The 1990s especially featured some of the […]
I have to admit, I didn’t have the highest hopes for The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes. I liked the book. It was a good story with compelling characters. But I had one big, major complaint: we didn’t need some tragic backstory for President Snow. Just let a bad guy be a bad guy simply […]
I did not have the highest hopes for The Marvels. I was worried it would require audiences to have seen both Ms. Marvel and WandaVision. The trailers did it no favors. In particular, the humor looked like it was going to be cringey and completely unfunny. While some of my fears were realized, it was […]
Money – and the prospect of more money – can drive already terrible people to commit even more terrible acts. To these people, it doesn’t matter who or what stands in their way. If they see an opportunity for money, power, and influence, they’re going to jump at it, no matter who they hurt in […]
No one is doing it quite like Christopher Nolan. Whether it’s an original idea, adaption of existing work, or interpretation of real life events, he’s always going to have his unique flares to add.

Reception really jumped up with the fourth, Ghost Protocol, as the series gave itself a few […]
Pixar has long been at the top of the mountain when it comes to animated movies. In a way no other studio (except maybe Studio Ghibli) can compete with, they have the uncanny ability to make kid-friendly movies that appeal equally to adults. Part of that magic is being able to take deep, intense themes […]
The Flash has had an interesting lead up to its release. There’s the Ezra Miller controversy, shakeup within the DC leadership, and massive praise from early screenings. There were multiple claims of it being one of the best superhero movies of all time, if not the best. There wasn’t much to back up those claims, […]
No one wants to be ghosted. No one wants to be ghosted especially when the one doing the ghosting is Ana de Armas. So what do you do? Do you take the hint of 10+ unreturned text messages and forget about her and move on? Or do you – unannounced, mind you – fly 5,000 […]
Michael Jordan’s Air Jordan deal revolutionized the athlete endorsement industry. It wasn’t just the shoe – or the shirts and other apparel that would soon follow. Rather, it was the nature of the deal. Where other shoe companies had their athletes wearing the same shoes, Nike designed the Air Jordan’s around Michael Jordan. That was […]
