Marvel At This?
1995 When Iron Man got the MCU ball rolling over ten years ago, it was the first and last big risk that Marvel took on the big screen. Since that time, the films have been released at calculated times with specific intent and they’ve all been financially profitable. While characters such as Captain America andContinue reading “Marvel At This?”
Throwback Thursday: The Nightmare Before Christmas (1993)
What’s This? I apologize for posting two Tim Burton related Throwback Thursday topics in a row, but with Halloween right around the corner, you really can’t blame me. Also, The Nightmare Before Christmas celebrates its twenty fifth anniversary on October 29th of this year, so it’s a perfect time to highlight this wonderful classic.

Throwback Thursday: Pirates of The Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl
Yo-ho! It’s hard to believe that fifteen years have passed since Disney’s Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl was first released. The film spawned four sequels, all to varying degrees of success, that have managed to keep the franchise alive in our minds over the years. Black Pearl is still myContinue reading “Throwback Thursday: Pirates of The Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl”
Thor Finally Gets A Decent Film
The Titan Arrives It has taken ten years and almost twenty films to get to his big moment, but Thanos finally arrived on the silver screen in Avengers: Infinity War in April. As of this writing it has easily cleared the one billion mark and doesn’t show any signs of slowing down any time soon. ThereContinue reading “Thor Finally Gets A Decent Film”
Taking Flight
1991 The late 1980’s and early 1990’s were wonderful years for me. 1989 saw me become a teenager and I struggled with and marveled at all of the normal things that happen to a boy around that age. I was also fully immersed in television, film, music, and books. My taste in movies leaned heavilyContinue reading “Taking Flight”

Ruling Over The Next MCU Phase
Wakanda As Marvel begins to dig deeper into their vault of heroes to make new films, the major players such as Captain America, Spider-Man, Hulk, and Thor are taking a step back so that lesser known heroes such as Doctor Strange, Ant-Man, and Captain Marvel can take the spotlight. Marvel did the exact same thing inContinue reading “Ruling Over The Next MCU Phase”
Addictive Apples
Storybrooke, ME I’ve been all over the place with my nerd viewing in recent months. I’ve bounced around from The IT Crowd (which I love and recommend) to multiple rewatchings of Star Trek, Star Trek Voyager, and Star Trek: The Next Generation, to shows like Luke Cage and Robotech. My wife, who rarely becomes passionateContinue reading “Addictive Apples”
