  • The Saiyan’s Make Themselves Known

    08/02/2021
    Before we get started I’m going to give you a little background info on me and Dragon Ball Z. (Also, check out my prior article explaining how I’m watching DBZ in fantastic 4:3 HD Blu-Ray goodness.) I was born in 1994. So I was the right age for the...

  • Ghost Stories: Pitching an MCU Disney+ Series

    02/02/2021
    Ant-Man and the Wasp was the Marvel Cinematic Universe at its most vapid. It was a fun chase movie with a few good gags and a lightning fast pace that didn’t delve into its characters to any substantial degree and, apart from a few lines setting up the temporal...

    01/02/2021
    How can you tell that you’ve spent too much money on something? It’s easy. When it arrives with a certificate of authenticity… I’ve never owned anything that has a certificate of authenticity before so it came as a bit of a surprise to be honest. It’s my own fault...

  • Silence in Star Wars

    26/01/2021
    The Star Wars franchise has some of the most famous sound effects and music ever produced, so it’s a bold choice whenever it instead embraces silence. It’s surprising how often John Williams’ iconic music disappears from the films to allow the sound design to tell the story, whether the...

  • Harley Quinn’s Finest Hour (or 22 minutes)

    05/01/2021
    I’ve never really liked Harley Quinn. Growing up I was exposed to the character through different mediums, without the clear character progression that other older fans who were there for the birth of Harley in Batman: The Animated Series had. The video game Arkham Asylum was my introduction to...

  • Which Early MCU Characters Will Return in Falcon And The Winter Soldier?

    29/12/2020
    Weaving an intricate yet colossal tale across 23 films and counting, the Marvel Cinematic Universe is consistently praised for its foresight and planning.
