Happy Sunday, everyone! I’m currently waiting for the start of the Emmy Awards and a night of live updates, but that doesn’t mean I lack the time to report on the movies and shows I saw this week! In terms of review, I saw two films that will...
It’s the night you’ve all been waiting for that doesn’t involve movies! That’s right, it’s the 71st Primetime Emmy Awards! Who will win a tough fight for Best Limited Series? Can Fleabag or Barry unseat Veep or The...
Tomorrow night, the 71st Primetime Emmy Awards will crown the best shows of a year of terrific television. And after last week’s Creative Arts Emmys…we still really don’t know that much about who will win the big prizes – you know, outside of the...
It’s hard to believe that ten years ago this month, Glee appeared on televisions across the nation and took the country by storm. Equal parts a Heathers-esque comedy-of-terror about high school and a love letter to theatre kids, Glee became a...

Well, with the festival scene finally completed, and the pop culture world finally at peace (for now), I’ve finally had a chance to watch more movies and TV! That’s right, I’ve managed to get out to the theater, make some rentals, and quietly...
Every year, it seems like the Oscar race gets crazier and crazier. Last year, we had the insane battle between Roma and Green Book that saw the very new competing with the very old. And this year, TIFF looks to shake things up once again by...

Twenty years ago, a seminal event in children’s programming hit the airwaves. On par with Pee Wee’s Playhouse, Rugrats, and The Looney Tunes, this sensation took over pop culture in a daring tour-du-force, providing Bugs Bunny-esque shenanigans...
When Stephen King’s It first premiered to massive critical and commercial acclaim in 2017, I was one of the few fun-killers. Oh, I didn’t hate the film by any means. I just viewed it as slightly-above average, and nowhere near $700 million...
In theory, there’s nothing I could imagine as more unnecessary than a sequel to Stanley Kubrick’s The Shining. While the novel possesses an entirely different ethos surrounding alcoholism, parental abuse, and the legacies of generations, the film...
Happy TIFF, everyone! Yes, I’m here at home monitoring the festival not four hours from me, patiently following the big news on all the hottest movies of the fall. But that doesn’t stop me from heading out to the theaters for reviews. Oh no, I...
