Christopher Nolan’s Interstellar has been out for a long time now, but unfortunately, I didn’t have the opportunity to see it until just this past month. After I finally saw it, I couldn’t stop thinking about it for days afterward. I watched it again, and I’m still fascinated by it. It’s a smart movie, and one of…
This past spring, Netflix, in conjunction with Marvel, released the first season of its start-up show Daredevil.

Season 2 is set to be released next year sometime, and already, a lot has…
Season one of True Detective revealed the killer to be a minor character nobody was really expecting. I’m starting to get the vibe that this season will see a big player be the guilty party. This week’s episode began to show signs that we are moving toward a conclusion. There are clues galore as we…
Many years ago, I was looking for something new to read, so I picked up a big book titled The Essential Calvin and Hobbes by Bill Watterson. The cover showed an image of a humanoid tiger tackling a little boy out the door of a house. I was intrigued, so I started to read the comic strips in the…

Ever since Disney acquired the rights to Star Wars, they’ve been trying to bring the famed and acclaimed series back to the big screen. Star Wars Episode VII: The Force Awakens comes back to theaters this December, and while support for the new film was originally lacking, J.J. Abrams’ promises to make sure it’s done like the original trilogy…
So we saw a big change this week on True Detective. After the epic shootout that capped off the previous episode, there was a time jump of a few months. Unfortunately that jump didn’t see Matthew McConaughey’s Detective Rust Cohle from last season take charge of the case. (What an awesome twist that would be.)…
Witches of East End is a thrilling, edgy, and romantic comedy all stirred together in a cauldron pot to enchant you.

Recently, they have been releasing trailers and sneak peaks, and the cast came to Comic-Con to talk about the show. Here’s what we know. What to Expect Kara Zor-El, the older cousin of…

The BBC’s hit TV show Sherlock, a modern adaptation of the mystery-solving duo starring Benedict Cumberbatch and Martin Freeman, is on its way back to its many adoring fans. This year, the BBC will be releasing a Christmas special, and fans will probably receive the fourth season that they’ve long been waiting for sometime in 2017….
True Detective ramped up the action this week. We expect brooding police officers and shady business deals, but not usually a full on firefight in the streets with tons of casualties. (Interestingly we got a shootout at the same point last season.) But this fight was just the last little while of the “Down Will…
Since we were kids, we have been fascinated by the amazing creations that have been brought to us on TV, especially when it included dinosaurs. These movies were a part of our creativity, our imagination, and most importantly our childhood. Now as adults, we still have the same amount of love for dinosaurs as we did…
Kingsman: The Secret Service is an R-rated spy movie satire set in Britain. Filled with both Bond-esque style and over-the-top brutal action and profanity, this movie is an odd, yet original, one in the genre. If you’re willing to look past the sometimes gratuitous swearing and the occasionally hardcore violence, this may be a good movie to…
