Absolute Superman 1 Reviewed
An alternate look at Kal-El. Wtf are gemstorms? Wtf are redlands? In this version of the story Jor-El and Lara are pariah. How did Superman end up on Earth with few possessions? What is a fabulously monstrous Brainiac plotting? Krypton was a caste obsessed society and a terrible place. Earth is pretty awful place too due to Lazarus Corps. There is ( Read more... ) -
Movie Review: Saturday Night (2024)
Oct 11 1975, the first airing of ‘Saturday Night Live’. This goes behind the scenes and stars Dylan O’Brien. Tickets handed out on the street. No names star. So much talking. Based on a big lie. Andy Kaufman lurks. Chevy Chase grates. Censors loom. Mamet speak takes place as do brawls and muppet mocking. Full of dudebro 'comedy'. Milton Berle ( Read more... ) -

Book Review: Scuttle, part 3
Scuttle by Barnaby Walker, part 3
The supremely annoying stepfather exits. The writing is pretentious. The dad’s creepy grooming of the horrific stepfather is ignored. Every character sounds like a 30something dudebro. Nothing makes sense. Aliens are behind it all apparently. This rips off ‘Under The Dome’ in a way. This was so badly written and ( Read more... )
