“Miles, being Spider-Man is a sacrifice.” 2018’s Spider-Man: Into The Spider-Verse set the bar extremely high for any and every Spider-Man film that would follow it. That movie is, at least in my opinion, the best Spider-Man movie ever made. When I finally had the chance to see Spider-Man: Across The Spider-Verse, my expectations wereContinue reading “Spider-Man: Across The Spider-Verse (2023)”

In Defense Of Morbius (2022)
Honestly, Morbius Doesn’t Suck When Sony/Columbia/Marvel released Morbius earlier this year, there were a ton of poor reviews about the film.

They/Them (2022)
Respect, Renew, Rejoice…. As soon as I saw the trailer for Blumhouse’s They/Them (pronounced They Slash Them), I knew that it wouldn’t be just another run of the mill slasher film.
