“It’s Just Little Ol’ Me.” Released in 2022, the McFarlane Toys DC Multiverse Arkham City Build-A-Figure line was quickly on my radar. It came in two versions: a color version and a Walmart exclusive Gold Label black-and-white variant. I’ve put eyes on all four figures in the line, Batman, Catwoman, Penguin, and Ra’s Al Ghul,Continue reading “McFarlane Toys DC Multiverse: Catwoman (Arkham City)”

McFarlane Toys DC Mulitverse: MR. FREEZE (Batman & Robin)
“The Iceman cometh!” Arnold Schwarzenegger served up a heaping helping of cheese in 1997’s Batman & Robin. He dished out one cold line after another, fully embracing his role as Victor Von Fries, better known as the villainous Mr. Freeze. Freeze partnered up with Poison Ivy in an attempt to steal enough diamonds to fuelContinue reading “McFarlane Toys DC Mulitverse: MR. FREEZE (Batman & Robin)”
McFarlane Toys DC Multiverse: BATMAN (Batman & Robin)
“Hi, Freeze. I’m Batman.” A film starring my favorite superhero (Batman) and one of my favorite supervillains (Mr. Freeze) should be one of my most beloved films of all time. Unfortunately for myself and a ton of other Batman fans, 1997’s Batman & Robin was a terrible, brightly colored mess. Leading the charge in thisContinue reading “McFarlane Toys DC Multiverse: BATMAN (Batman & Robin)”
McFarlane Toys DC Multiverse: ROBIN (Batman & Robin)
“My rubber lips are immune to your charms.” Despite a bad script and some terrible special effects, Chris O’Donnell did a fairly reasonable job as Robin/Dick Grayson in 1997’s Batman & Robin. He was one of the funniest parts of the film and worked well with his co-stars. McFarlane Toys has added a figure ofContinue reading “McFarlane Toys DC Multiverse: ROBIN (Batman & Robin)”
McFarlane Toys DC Multiverse: POISON IVY (Batman & Robin)
“So many people to kill….so little time.” With love dust, a poison kiss, and Bane at her side, Poison Ivy was a terrifically terrible villain in 1997’s Batman & Robin. Portrayed by Uma Thurman in the film, Poison Ivy teams up with Mr. Freeze in order to take over Gotham City and, eventually, the world.Continue reading “McFarlane Toys DC Multiverse: POISON IVY (Batman & Robin)”
McFarlane Toys DC Multiverse: BATGIRL (Batman & Robin)
“I want to help Batman and Robin.” Although the 1997 Batman & Robin film is one of my least favorite films in the DC Universe, I have to admit that I really, really liked the costumes and some of the characters. One of the characters that I really enjoyed seeing on the big screen wasContinue reading “McFarlane Toys DC Multiverse: BATGIRL (Batman & Robin)”
Fouke Monster Festival 2024
Fouke, Arkansas Myself and my Filmsquatch co-host, Patrick Bennett, made our way to the legendary town of Fouke, Arkansas to enjoy our third visit to the Fouke Monster Festival on Saturday, April 27th. The event took place at the Fouke Middle School and featured a number of excellent speakers and guests. Filmsquatch had a tableContinue reading “Fouke Monster Festival 2024”
Sasquatch Sunset
“Hwoop!” The Zellner brothers give Bigfoot their offbeat treatment in 2024’s Sasquatch Sunset. Written and co-directed by David Zellner, the film follows the lives of four Sasquatch over the course of a year. It’s a lot like watching a ninety-minute version of Wild America without Marty Stouffer narrating the action. There is also a lotContinue reading “Sasquatch Sunset”
Jurassic Park Amber Collection: Dr. Alan Grant (2021)
“After careful consideration, I have decided not to endorse your park.” If Dr. Ian Malcolm was the rock star in the original Jurassic Park film, Dr. Alan Grant was the record producer that kept a level head when the band (or, in this case, the park) lost its way. Dr. Grant was always aware ofContinue reading “Jurassic Park Amber Collection: Dr. Alan Grant (2021)”
CyPhaCon 2024!
My Local Convention I’ve been attending CyPhaCon for many years now and it was great to return to this local event yet again. This year, CyPhaCon featured Edward James Olmos, Barry Lowin, Mela Lee, and tons of anime voice actors for fans to meet, take photos, and get autographs. I was there as a representativeContinue reading “CyPhaCon 2024!”
