This first edition brings news on Mascots, Iron Fist, Haters Back Off! and the TV adaptation of Lemony Snicket… MASCOTS Mascots is a new […]
“Bring da motherfuckin’ ruckus.” This show has a fucking soundtrack. Sixteen Marvel movies hit theaters every year and I’d be shocked if you could find someone on the street who remembered a single bar of original music used in any of them. Three episodes into Luke Cage and not only have we heard Charles Bradley, Ol’ Dirty Bastard, Nirvana, Isaac […]
“My woman was pregnant when I went in. Haven’t seen her or my son since he was thirteen. I have this nightmare that one day he’s gonna come to the shop, ask for a cut, sit in my chair… and I’m not even gonna know him.” “Code of the Streets,” Luke Cage‘s gorgeously shot and unevenly […]
“UPS ain’t the only brown that delivers.” Actor Mike Colter’s guarded, injured, and ultimately good-hearted turn as Luke Cage was one of the few pleasures the first season of Jessica Jones had to offer. On his own and grounded in a much more immediate and organic sense of place and moment, he doesn’t disappoint. Luke Cage, adapted from the […]
True Memoirs Of An International Assassin is the latest Netflix original movie – an action comedy stars Kevin James as Sam Larson, a mild-mannered would-be author who gets mistaken for a killer-for-hire when his fictional novel about an international assassin is published as a true story. When the book is a huge success, he is […]
Netflix and DreamWorks have just released the official trailer, and a selection of images for Voltron: Legendary Defender, which premieres on Netflix June 10th.

Stars: Kate Siegel, John Gallagher Jr., Michael Trucco, Samantha Sloyan, Emma Graves | Written by Mike Flanagan, Kate Siegel | Directed by Mike Flanagan Horror movies centered on home invasions are much more likely to terrify me than ones about ghosts and zombies, and that’s mostly because, well, there’s nothing unrealistic about the idea of someone breaking into […]
The end is nigh—or so we think. In the final episodes of House of Cards season four, we come to terms with what’s going on from the start: Claire and Frank never truly loved each other but rather are a political union made for world domination. A modern day Catherine the Great married to Alexander […]
With the Kingpin now behind bars Matt Murdock is continuing his battle to keep the streets of Hell’s Kitchen safe. As gangs move to gain a foothold once again on the streets, suddenly a new “army” appears to be taking them out in a rain of gunfire. When this army turns out to be just […]
Dramatic irony: when the audience finally understands what’s going on in that another character might not know. Now this gets used all the time in plays and dramatic works, and often to deepen the sense of suspense the audience now has with extra information. Think of horror movies where you know where the bad guy’s […]
For the most part, everyone, even those who have never seen House of Cards, knows it’s about politics and the power plays behind every action. But most of all, they know it’s about trust and the loss of trust: it brings you into the middle of a relationship, tosses you some facts you know will […]
Man oh man. I mean, it still doesn’t live up to the “I killed a recurring character in the first episode” act that House of Cards pulled in season two, but it introduces the ever wonderful Ellen Burstyn as Claire’s dying mother Elizabeth Hale and Neve Campbell acting as Claire’s “Doug” counterpart Leann Harvey. There’s […]

For those of us that grew up in the 80s (and spent their teen years living in video stores in the 90s) Paul Reubens and his creation Pee-Wee Herman were something of an icon. Well it’s been almost 30 years since the release of Big Top Pee-Wee – which debuted in 1988 – and now, […]

Jessica Jones has finally arrived on Netflix, and while some may be tiring of the superhero movies and television shows has been a lot of hope for the latest Marvel show. With a Neo-noir style and a more adult feel to it, Marvel may have a hit on their hands… Starring Krysten Ritter as Jessica […]
Arriving next month on Netflix, Jessica Jones is based on the critically-acclaimed, albeit short-lived, comic book series Alias (not to be confused with the Jennifer Garner-starring TV series of the same name). The 2001 series helped to spring-board the popularity of writer Brian Michael Bendis when it arrived as one of the initial titles in […]
