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!

Jennifer Walters has survived the second Civil War…barely. But, having risen from the rubble, she re-enters the world a very different kind of hero. Fueled by a quiet rage, she is determined to move forward, to go on with her life – but the pain of the past and all that she’s lost is always there. An undercurrent, a pulse waiting to quicken -and trigger Jen’s transformation into the one thing she doesn’t have control over… COLLECTING: HULK 1-6 She-Hulk is now just “hulk”, which isn’t confusing at all, but makes sense in light of the fact that the original...

Directed by Dean DeBlois, Chris Sanders. With Daveigh Chase, Chris Sanders, Tia Carrere, David Ogden Stiers. A Hawaiian girl adopts an unusual pet who is actually a notorious extra-terrestrial fugitive. There’s a Lilo & Stitch cinematic universe on Disney+ and I’m dipping my toes right into it. I’ve already this the first movie, but I watched it again to remind me why I loved it so much, it’s one of the few solid science fiction films from Disney, and it combines Polynesian concepts to great effect.

Directed by Gregg Hale, Liam O’Donnell, Eduardo Sánchez. With Neil Hopkins, Ruby O’Donnell, Phet Mahathongdy, Deanna Russo. This genre-bending anthology takes place during a series of world-wide blackouts, after which millions of mysterious cosmic anomalies appear everywhere across the planet. While many flee from the objects, the real terror sets in as people are drawn toward – and into – them. Not one movie, but three! Or maybe even four depending on how you count! One of the shorts was good, one was ok, the other was forgettable, but the concept is pretty solid. Buy On Amazon!

Directed by Tom Harper. With Felicity Jones, Eddie Redmayne, Himesh Patel, Vincent Perez. Pilot Amelia Rennes (Felicity Jones) and scientist James Glaisher (Eddie Redmayne) find themselves in an epic fight for survival while attempting to make discoveries in a gas balloon. Movies with only a couple actors in them are difficult, but this one was done well enough that I’d recommend you actually see it in theaters if you have the ability to. Buy On Amazon!
