• Game of Thrones S6E2 Home review – He’s baaaaack!

    Holy. Crap. This week’s episode of Game of Thrones blew me away. I was expecting good things from “Home,” but not an hour of television that delivered on virtually every level and that ranks up there with the series’ finest outings. If this is what the show looks like without the books, then count… Listen ⇢

  • Game of Thrones The Red Woman review: A subdued but mostly effective opening act

    After 10 months of anticipation – or five years if you’re a book reader – Jon Snow is…still dead. It’s hard not to feel a little disappointed that Jon’s fate was not resolved in this premiere, and, in fact, “The Red Woman” is already being utterly trashed by some Game of… Listen ⇢

  • PreGame of Thrones: Hopes and Predictions for Season 6 Episode 1, The Red Woman

    I’m very excited for the Season 6 premiere of Game of Thrones, mostly so we can all stop writing articles about why Jon Snow is coming back to life. Let’s get this resurrection over with, shall we? Literally everyone knows it’s coming. Tonight’s episode is entitled “The Red Woman,” and the plot… Listen ⇢

  • In Hush, Mike Flanagan ditches the dialogue but brings the scares

    Hush is one of those movies where I was instantly on board with it as soon as I heard the premise: it’s a home-invasion flick where the main character is deaf and mute. The entire film takes place in the house as our hero struggles to survive in spite of her… Listen ⇢

  • Ahsoka Tano receives an unsatisfying send-off on Star Wars: Rebels

    Star Wars: Rebels’ season finale featured the exploration of Malachor, the return of Darth Maul, and a battle against three inquisitors, but for much of the fandom, the highlight was always going to be Ahsoka Tano. Formerly the young Padawan of Anakin Skywalker in The Clone Wars, Ahsoka made her return to the Star Wars universe… Listen ⇢

  • Batman v Superman: Dawn of…just this?

    What the hell happened here? I went into Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice knowing not to expect the finest comic book story ever told, but I was not prepared for this, one of the most incoherent and baffling major Hollywood productions in recent memory. It simultaneously moves along at a frantic pace, not allowing… Listen ⇢

  • Revisiting Man of Steel, one of the most poorly paced blockbusters in recent history

    Batman v. Superman: Dawn of Justice opens in theaters tonight, and I sincerely hope it’s good. Based on early reviews and word of mouth, that seems unlikely, but I will nonetheless be walking into the theater ready for a pleasant surprise. After rewatching Man of Steel, though, I have one major concern. With… Listen ⇢

  • Daredevil season 2 Highs and lows

    I virtually never binge TV, preferring to take my time and view a maximum of two or three episodes per sitting. But this past Saturday, before I even realized what was happening, I had sat threw 10 damn hours of Daredevil Season 2 with little to no breaks. This show just took control of me.… Listen ⇢
