Directed by Sebastian Gutierrez. With Abbey Lee, Ciarán Hinds, Carla Gugino, Matthew Beard. A brilliant man marries a beautiful woman and shows her his home, stating that it’s all hers – except a room she can’t enter. First chance she enters and discovers what might be human cloning. When the husband returns she pays the price. Sorta like Ex Machina, sorta like Replicas, but without the big budget of either one of those. That’s not to say this is a bad film, it’s just much smaller in scope. I particularly want to suggest the film, if only for you to...

Created by Lauren Faust, Bonnie Zacherle. With Ashleigh Ball, Tara Strong, Tabitha St. Germain, Andrea Libman. After learning that her friends, as well as herself, are the magical Elements of Harmony, studious unicorn Twilight Sparkle is sent by her mentor, Princess Celestia, to Ponyville to study the magic of friendship with help from her friends. You ever watch a series, get half way through an episode, and get a distinct impression that you’re watching the final episode of the entire thing? That happened to me, and it was sad. I started watching this show on a lark, was happy with...

Created by Sam Esmail. With Rami Malek, Christian Slater, Carly Chaikin, Martin Wallström. Elliot, a brilliant but highly unstable young cyber-security engineer and vigilante hacker, becomes a key figure in a complex game of global dominance when he and his shadowy allies try to take down the corrupt corporation he works for. A very tightly scripted and believable series about mental health, society’s issues, computers, technology, and everything that goes into all of those things. That final season was intense, and did not shy away from going where it needed to. Buy On Amazon!

Directed by John Lee Hancock. With Quinton Aaron, Sandra Bullock, Tim McGraw, Jae Head. The story of Michael Oher, a homeless and traumatized boy who became an All-American football player and first-round NFL draft pick with the help of a caring woman and her family. A fun story of a huge kid in a depressingly shitty situation. It all ends well enough, but I wish we could solve these problems on a community level instead of just one kid at a time. Buy On Amazon!

Directed by Kevin Smith. With Chris Hemsworth, Matt Damon, Ben Affleck, Melissa Benoist. Jay and Silent Bob return to Hollywood to stop a reboot of the ‘Bluntman and Chronic’ movie from getting made. A low quality call back to every movie that Kevin Smith has done. It’s a fun movie, but not a great movie and honestly I had more fun watching the stuff in the credits than I did watching the movie itself. Buy On Amazon!

When the adventurous and inquisitive Jonny Quest and his adoptive brother Hadji make a startling discovery in the swamplands of Florida, they are pulled into an epic struggle between the Space Rangers and a dangerous villain who threatens the galaxy. Now it’s up to the combined forces of Team Quest, Inter-Nation Security, Space Ghost, and a host of Hanna-Barbera’s greatest action heroes to stop him and save their universe! Long story about this series, I only bought and read them because I was pressured into buying a .50 book, and I chose a random one that had a giant tentacle...

Chapter One – Unrivaled Hospitality: The world’s leading scientists are gathering for the International Tech Symposium in Nagoya, Japan where King T’Challa is accompanied by a team of … A bizarre story in which only a Lexus car can save humanity from Machinesmith, a rogue A.I. One small draw back to the story: the car doesn’t show up until the final issue, and it turns out that the story itself was pretty good, which is abnormal for these blatant advertisement books. Sure, Black Panther actually takes a back seat to some philosophical discussions between some of the other characters for...

Directed by William Eubank. With Kristen Stewart, T.J. Miller, Jessica Henwick, Vincent Cassel. A crew of aquatic researchers work to get to safety after an earthquake devastates their subterranean laboratory. But the crew has more than the ocean seabed to fear. Amazingly better than I could have hoped for, I was on the edge of my seat for nearly the entire movie. There’s one confusing lull in the story, but that gets handled in due course. See this in theaters if possible! Buy On Amazon!
