Lunar Logic

On the vacuum surface of the moon, life for Ai-dan and a cohort of moon-dwelling androids is anything but a lunar wasteland of boredom. They spend their days maintaining lunar data centers with a quaint blue-green, and sometimes whitish, orb hanging in the sky. Between playing games and spirited debates on the meaning of the shimmering orb, the robots’ existence is near idyllic. But when a malfunctioning system leads Ai-dan to stumble upon a mysterious box and then a soft-bodied android-total lunar oddities-the harmony of their world gets tossed into disarray. As they dig deeper into these enigmatic discoveries, Ai-dan...

“Ironheart” Review

Ironheart: Created by Chinaka Hodge. With Dominique Thorne, Anthony Ramos, Lyric Ross, Matthew Elam. Genius teenage inventor Riri Williams creates the most advanced suit of armor since Iron Man. There’s so many loop holes and plot points that make no sense, the return of an Iron Man suit wasn’t enough to really make me happy here. For whatever reason, Disney decided to make one of the best technological heroes from the comics into a supernatural magic weirdo that falls in with some seriously bad people. Every episode Riri makes terrible choices, does terrible things, and never learns her lessons. At...

“The Last of Us” Review

The Last of Us: Created by Neil Druckmann, Craig Mazin. With Bella Ramsey, Pedro Pascal, Gabriel Luna, Isabela Merced. After a global pandemic destroys civilization, a hardened survivor takes charge of a 14-year-old girl who may be humanity’s last hope. If you didn’t play the second game you may have been shocked by the beginning and the end of this second season, and if you HAD played the season game, you may have been shocked that they actually went through with a couple shocking plot points. I hadn’t played the game, but had the opening spoilered long ago, but that...

Star Trek: Strange New Worlds: Toward The Night

A thrilling new novel based on the Paramount+ TV series Star Trek: Strange New Worlds! While patrolling the borders of the Klingon Empire, Captain Christopher Pike and the crew of the USS Enterprise detect a series of subspace echoes from a planet orbiting a volatile flare star — and when Lieutenant Spock and Commander Una Chin-Riley lead a landing party to learn more, they discover the ruins of a dead civilization and evidence of starship-grade metals…quite possibly a crash site. As they continue to investigate the strange signals, Spock and Una find shocking signs of dangerous alien life and remnants...

“Interior Chinatown” Review

Interior Chinatown: With Jimmy O. Yang, Ronny Chieng, Chloe Bennet, Sullivan Jones. Background actor Willis Wu witnesses a crime in Chinatown while working on a TV show. As he investigates, he unravels a criminal web and experiences life in the spotlight he had dreamed of. Confusing, confounding, appealing, and a masterclass in deconstructing television tropes, I first saw a clip of this on Tik Tok, then spent 10 hours watching it on Hulu. There are many familiar faces including Chloe Bennet, who I loved in Agents of SHIELD. Buy On Amazon!

“Lilo & Stitch” Review

Lilo & Stitch: Directed by Dean Fleischer Camp. With Maia Kealoha, Sydney Agudong, Chris Sanders, Zach Galifianakis. A lonely Hawaiian girl befriends a runaway alien, helping to mend her fragmented family. A live action version of a movie that meant a whole lot to me and much like their past efforts there’s no real reason for this remake and it adds nothing of value to the franchise. It’s cute and is a perfectly fine movie, but it’s definitely not as good as the animated film. Buy On Amazon!

“The Wheel of Time” Review

The Wheel of Time: Created by Rafe Judkins. With Rosamund Pike, Daniel Henney, Zoë Robins, Madeleine Madden. The lives of five young villagers change forever when a strange and powerful woman arrives, claiming one of them is the child of an ancient prophecy with the power to tip the balance between Light and Dark forever. I forgot that I even finished this latest season, there’s way too many separate storylines going on with too many characters for me to keep it all straight. If you were to watch this, I suggest watching it all at once and not as the...

“Predator: Killer of Killers” Review

Predator: Killer of Killers: Directed by Dan Trachtenberg, Joshua Wassung. With Michael Biehn, Doug Cockle, Rick Gonzalez, Damien C. Haas. Three of the fiercest warriors in human history become prey to the ultimate killer of killers. About as good as you can get for science fiction, I’m super happy to see that the Predator franchise is back in good hands and they seem to have a handle on what makes the Predatorverse so appealing to so many people. There’s a lot of world building here and some obvious sequel breadcrumbs, but the three stories here are fantastic. Buy On Amazon!
