MARCH MADNESS ROUND 2: What is the Best Animated Disney Movie?


DIEGO'S NOTE: We've done it! As part of our MARCH MADNESS celebration, we've gathered a series of scientific, and factual, opinions to determine what is the best animated Disney movie classic? Our answers surprised us too.

I also talk about CHAPPiE and how shitty it was. Wow. What a literal pile of crap.

And that Tomorrowland trailer inspires us to shrug "Okay, I guess"

Powers Pilot Review: Yes, No, and Maybe


DIEGO'S NOTE: This will be a quick one since it's a bit hectic this week.

Powers is a mixed bag. I wouldn't say anything is outright awful but it seems at war with itself. Is it a noir? The constant bright lighting would suggest otherwise, though plenty of noir tropes can be found here. Or maybe it's not trying to be dark? Then why would it focus on a character who is as tormented as Sharlto Copley's Christian Walker? All these questions still don't deter me from being interested in this world.

Spectacular Spider-Man Series Review


DIEGO'S NOTE: The 7 year anniversary of The Spectacular Spider-Man was yesterday so I thought I should give my thoughts on this matter.

This is a SPOILER FREE  review/analysis of Spectacular Spider-Man. You can read this and then go buy the series later. Just trust me on this.

Man of Steel vs Destruction of Metropolis


DIEGO'S NOTE: Stuff like this is why I hate deadlines (especially ones I give myself). Sometimes we just get bombarded with so many different ways to discuss a topic, we end up with a small idea giving birth to a dozen other ideas! Maybe that's what happened with this movie.
After my last bit on Man of Steel (if you can call a thousand words "a bit") I felt satisfied with what I had to say about my repeat viewing of the movie. I do still have more to say left over from previous viewing experiences but my previous article is kinda required reading so I don't repeat myself too much here. We know where this is headed: the destruction of Metropolis in Man of Steel.

House of Cards Season 3 Review: Who Cares?



DIEGO'S NOTE: The intro to this House of Cards review discusses slightly spoilerish things relating to Homeland so if you're not caught up on that, here is your SPOILER warning for that show. Spoilers for House of Cards because it's way too difficult to discuss everything that works/doesn't work without mentioning as much as possible.
