So for the past 40 years I have been a huge “Star Wars” fan. I can remember the first time that I sat in the theater and the screen came up with the title in the opening sequence of John Williams’ brilliant score and absolutely being blown away. My eyes widened and I completely dropped... Continue Reading →
I threw the “sigh” expression in the subtitle for the simple fact that I think that “Justice League” was plagued by missed opportunities. What I mean is, I think it could have been done a lot better. I don’t think I’m too far off in stating this as it seems to be a consensus amongst... Continue Reading →
I found this latest outing of the adventures of Thor to be somewhat refreshing compared to the previous two. In particular, it carried a much lighter take on the legend of the Norse god while dealing with a particularly devastating event in the history of Asgard.

Recently I decided to take on the watching of the show Arrow and didn't start until around season five's completion.... Continue Reading →
Intro To All Things Trek: So I finally had a chance to sit and watch Star Trek Discovery, a day after its Sunday night preview. For those of you not so familiar with Trek because you happen to have been living under a rock for the past half century, it’s a science fiction show... Continue Reading →
https://youtu.be/JsYu9jsmlHc I honestly can't say that I've been waiting in great anticipation for Star Trek Discovery, but being a Trekkie I have to say that I'll take Trek in any form that I can get my hands on. With that said, so far pre-air reviews sound good concerning the show and the direction that it's ... Continue Reading →
