February 18, 2017 // 1 Comment

For the longest time, I’ve had in my head the perfect, four movie plan for a Spider-Man story-arc that delivers fully fleshed-out origins for my favorite villains, Venom and Carnage, leaving them space to grow, breath, and become the arch-villains they are in the Comics.

July 22, 2016 // 3 Comments

“Skip to the end.” Though not a term exclusive to the 1999 UK television series Spaced, the phrase quickly became one of the show’s running jokes, being recited throughout both seasons frequently and even serving as the name of the Documentary about the making of Simon Pegg’s breakout show. Spaced was created & written by Jessica Hynes (who also appeared in Shaun of ...READ ON!

I may have seen Jurassic World six times (I did… why lie?). With such a great number of repeat viewings comes great responsibility, including insight into new details/themes/symbols/”Easter Eggs,” producing more material to analyze and explore than in my original review for the Jurassic Park‘s best and most profitable (movie in the world?) sequel.

Why Are They Breeding Raptors On Isla Nublar?

January 7, 2015 // 2 Comments

“Clever Girl.” Velociraptors. Though T-Rex makes the park logo (of both the failed Jurassic Park and the new Jurassic World) and has the best single scene in the franchise (“someone let T-Rex out of his pen”), for me, the Jurassic Park franchise is all about Velociraptors. There are few things scarier than the Velociraptor; in fact, it may be the scariest monster to ever ...READ ON!
