Volcano: Mount Wilshire Marks 25th Anniversary

Star Trek: Discovery – Season 1

The first season of Star Trek: Discovery marked the franchise’s long-awaited return to the small screen after a decade-plus absence.

It wasn’t until the recent convention in Chicago that I decided to make the trip into outer space. Plus, with the coming of…

The Bad Guys Is A Redemption Story

From the outside looking in, The Bad Guys might be about bad guys but there’s a redemption story at the core of the film. Is there some sort of clause in Sam Rockwell’s contract where he is required to play characters with a redemption story? We’ve seen this so far in a few films now.

The Unbearable Weight of Massive Talent Is A Blast

The Unbearable Weight of Massive Talent is a blast and a whole lot of fun as the film teams Nicolas Cage and Pedro Pascal together. One of them is the Mandalorian. The other one left Las Vegas, infiltrated The Rock, flew on Con Air, and discovered a national treasure not once but twice. Put them together in one of the wackiest comedies of 2022 and the result is just pure joy and entertainment. Nick Cage…
