House of the Dragon | Westeros on FIRE already?
House of the Dragon: Episode Two. It's six months later and Westeros has changed. Targaryen captains are picking sides. Ties are beginning to fray on the Small Council. Brother fights brother. Political Backstabbery. A weird Silent Hill style, crab-themed villain is established.

Resident Evil Canceled!! | More Woke Trash Up in Flames
Resident Evil on Netflix, gets torched after a single season. I touch on what went wrong and what it means for entertainment going forward.
Who'd ever have thought that a zombie show that only made good on some minor connections to the OG franchise and a bushel of rancid memberberries would wind up like this?

Welcome to Fem-splain 101 | She Hulk Ep.2 [REVIEW]
She Hulk is back, now with 100% more complaining BUT 33% less run time? The MCU is running out of steam and it shows. The jokes fall flat, the characters are less than one-dimensional, and sadly not even Tim Roth can help. Chalk up the Abomination to one more character shat on.

She Hulk's NOT For You Boys!! [DISNEY+] [S1E1]
Make your peace, comic fans. There's a zero percent chance the MCU gives you the She Hulk in the thumbnail. Episode One is more of the same: a spiteful main character with an axe to grind with no depth and no opportunity for growth or development.
EVERY male character in this episode is a sleaze bag, incompetent douche, or a sexual predator. The 'jokes' come and go without any real laughs and there's ZERO on screen chemistry between Ruffalo's Hulk and Maslani's character.
The dialogue is hot garbage that would have been right at home alongside Batwoman or Naomi. Beyond amateurish. There's no establishment of a central storyline, no villain seen lurking in the shadows, no meaningful development of our 'Her-o". She just shows up perfect, is perfect, and continues to be perfect. It's the worst sort of on the nose wish fulfillment and self-inserting by the writers I've seen in a while.
Thankfully the flood of YouTube reviews of this show will make for decent entertainment.

Best Sequel in the Franchise? | PREY [Review]
Fifth in the Predator franchise (if you don't count AVP and AVP:R, and you shouldn't...) Prey lands a new-look Predator on Comanche hunting grounds in 18th century America. Lots of trophy hunting shenanigans goes down. Things are skinned and de-spined. Lessons are learned. Laughs are shared. Is it woke? Is Naru a Mary Sue? Does this feel like a 'real' Predator movie?
I'm going to tell you...

Resident Evil: 9021--uh oh... [Review]
Netflix launches a Resident Evil series... but is it really Resident Evil? It's got zombies... sort of. They've got a Wesker... sort of. They do search a house for a key... sort of. Lickers and infected Dobermans show up.
But is this really Resident Evil?

Jurassic World: Dominion [REVIEW] | Extinction Overdue
Jurassic World Dominion lumbered into the box office. It's making money, but dinosaurs always do. Did uniting the original Big Three of Grant, Sattler, and Malcolm with Owen and Claire break any new ground? Or is this just more of the same.
Winter Wolf breaks down the symptoms of sequelitis...

Do Fans Really Want This? [Jon Snow SEQUEL Series]
Is HBO's David Zaslav cooking up a comeback for the most successful HBO series of all time? After the debacle of GoT: S8, are fans interested in any further adventures of the King of the North?
Do fans really want to see what Jon Snow's up to north of the Wall (that has a giant hole in it)?

There's a Willow Series coming to Disney Plus? Let's take a first look. Hopefully the magic's back. Question is, will Madmartigan, Sorsha, and Finn Razel return for the ride.
Was that Queen Bavmorda being re-born?

Strange New Worlds... New Star Trek Done Right?
I'm checking out Star Trek: Strange New Worlds on Paramount Plus. So far, I'm liking it. It's not perfect, but it's lightyears better than Discovery and Picard. Is Trek finally on its way back up?
I've got some gripes though...

Four FATAL Flaws | Halo Series [REVIEW]
Plenty of blame to go around, but the Halo TV Seties has four FATAL flaws that completely trashed its chances of becoming must-see TV.
The Master Chief, Covenant, and anything recognizable as HALO have been co-opted to tell a Hallmark Movie of the Week.
My REVIEW/RANT covers these flaws AND provides a few alternate paths Paramount could've gone with.
Spoiler Alert: None of them had to do with mid-life crises or dating drama written by 6th Graders.

She Hulk Trailer Reaction | Will Fans Turn Green?
She Hulk is on deck for the MCU on Disney Plus. We get some dodgy CGI, a campy tone, a healthy serving of Girl Power... but it might still be funny.

Multiverse of Madness... or Mediocrity | Spoilers
Dr. Strange: Multiverse of Madness... A breakdown of major plot points and pitfalls in the latest from the MCU. There's a little to like, a little more to dislike, but in its defense this is the best of Marvel's Phase 4 (that doesn't include Spiderman).
Moon Knight S1E6 REVIEW | Who's the REAL Superhero
Moon Knight kinda sorta shows up. Harrow unleashes Ammit. Layla proves once and for all she's the star of the show. Ammit looks cool. Steven becomes inexplicably powered up for some reason.
The MCU and Disney insist our traditional heroes are no longer welcome. Oscar Isaac and Ethan Hawke deserve better. Time for this Knight to face the dawn.
Dr. Strange Pre-Fight | Wanda 2.0 | America Chavez DEBUT!
The fate of the MCU rests on Dr. Strange's multi-dimensional shoulders. Will gal pals Scarlet Witch and America Chavez have what it takes to defeat the Illuminati? (Because we all know they'll be doing the heavy lifting in Multiverse of Madness)

HALO Series S1:E6 | Slow Zone Ahead | Covenant MIA | Spartans Snooze
Master Chief grinds the Halo Series to a halt. Halsey and Cortana expose themselves... as idiots. The Spartans and Covenant are no shows. None of the adults act like adults.
Paramount Plus already green lit Season 2 of this garbage? Holy hell, if they're that desperate to give away $10M an episode HEY PARAMOUNT, my contact info is below!!

Moon Knight Ep. 5 | Family DRAMA Revealed
Moon Knight sits this one out... again. When will Marvel let superheroes do superhero stuff? Clock's ticking with this one. One episode to go.
Marc and Steven retreat to the safe space in their mind to balance the scales of their soul before Harrow can unleash-- ahh who cares?
