Are there any movie stars anymore? In an era where IPs and brands do more to sell tickets than the actors behind them, it seems unlikely we will ever see an era where an individual can sell a ticket on name recognition and charisma alone. It’s...
Last weekend, DC and Warner Brothers held a 24-hour personal Comic Con dedicated to new trailers, Q&As with the directors, and more. As with the rest of the DCEU (DC Extended Universe, for those who don’t understand that idiotic title), it...
It’s time once again for the Fourth Annual Sacred Wall Awards! We’ve gone through the worst of the worst and the best of the best, and now it’s time to turn our attention to the base components of these modern-day masterpieces...
Happy new week, everyone! It’s been a banner week for pop culture, with fantastic new television shows and a light reopening of theaters providing us a whole litany of distractions to choose from. On my end, I only saw two new releases I’m...
Several months ago, nineteen actors and actresses entered the Dolby Theater to see if all of their dreams could come true. And as expected, most of them lost to Renée Zellweger, Laura Dern, Brad Pitt, and Joaquin Phoenix. However, while most of...
They say you should never judge something by its successes, but by its failures. And for that reason, 2019 was a pretty damn great year for cinema. I mean, my recently posted Worst Of 2019 list tells a story of mediocrities few and far between...

Let us return to our reflections on the Best of 2019 with another ode to the world of pop culture. At the beginning of the year, I made a promise to keep up to date on every TV show to receive buzz and acclaim. As it turns out, there are a lot of...
I’ve been holding onto my Oscar predictions for quite some time. While the current list of predictions has remained unchanged since I first wrote it back in March, a certain pandemic made the whole thing feel sort of…slight, in the face of...
Zack Snyder has been slowly coming back in recent days. After famously getting fired from his own film for bungling it (not that the studio did a much better job with it), and then stepping away from the spotlight because of a horrific family...
We’re another week closer to the upcoming September Sweep (the name I’m giving to the fall season where Netflix, Amazon, and Hulu will drop a new Oscar contender pretty much once a week until the end of the year). I’ve been mostly spending this...
