SYFY’s KRYPTON Review: Pilot

SYFY’s KRYPTON Review: Pilot

They spent some big bucks on the pilot, so it really LOOKED good. But unfortunately, this first hour of Krypton was just slightly above mediocre. My biggest problem with it was that I didn’t really like Seg-el, the lead character. I know he’s Superman’s grandfather and all. But he’s got that arrogant, hey-I’m-a-bad-boy, swagger that’s more annoying than endearing. So as he goes through his…

BLACK LIGHTNING: Easter Eggs

BLACK LIGHTNING: Easter Eggs

There wasn’t much super heroics this past episode, but I didn’t mind because the characters are so interesting. But one exciting thing did happen. We found out that Black Lightning is part of the Arrow-verse. I know the producers have been pretty coy about things, but that changed tonight. During a mother/daughter conversation about super heroes, between Lynn and Jennifer, they mention Vixen and…

GOTHAM Recap: Hammer Time

GOTHAM Recap: Hammer Time

The rich folk, who make up the Gotham Elite, are idiots. Every time there is a fancy black tie gala in Gotham, a crazed lunatic shows up and starts killing people. But yet they keep coming, and act surprised when the armed thugs show up, pretty much on cue. And then everyone panics acting surprised; only in Gotham. Am I right? Last time, during the Pig story arch, the Gotham elite were forced to…

THE FLASH Recap: Run Iris, Run

THE FLASH Recap: Run Iris, Run

This superhero freaky-friday scenario happened on Lois & Clark, Smallville, and now The Flash. The superhero’s non-powered significant other acquires the powers of the hero, leaving him powerless, for one episode. And this episode of The Flash was a whole lot of fun, just like the like-minded versions on those previously mentioned shows. And nothing’s wrong with having a bit of fun. A new bus…

BLACK LIGHTNING Review: The Book Of Revelations

BLACK LIGHTNING Review: The Book Of Revelations

There were a couple of real big revelations this episode, so the title this week was apropos. The least surprising is that Jennifer has some kind of energy power. After finding out that Anissa inherited powers from her Dad, I’m surprised that Jefferson and Lynn didn’t sit Jennifer down right away and let her in on the family secrets. Instead, they dragged their feet and she found out on her own.…

NICK CAGE IS SUPERMAN: Breaking News

NICK CAGE IS SUPERMAN: Breaking News

But don’t vilify Warner Brothers just yet. Henry Cavil is still our big blue boy scout! Nick Cage will be voicing the Man Of Steel in the new TEEN TITANS GO! movie. It’s an inspired move, because Nick Cage was originally cast as Superman in the 90’s for a failed Tim Burton project.  And after seeing some pre-production images of Cage in the suit, most fans are glad Burton’s vision got torpedoed.…

LOST IN SPACE: Featurette Hey Space-Cases, my nickname for fellow fans of Lost In Space.  They are really starting to crank up the publicity machine.  

JUSTICE LEAGUE: Available on Dvd/Blu Ray I actually liked this movie and can't wait to get the Blu Ray.  It's not a perfect movie, but it's a lot of fun.  

SYFY's KRYPTON: Making Of The Legend

SYFY’s KRYPTON: Making Of The Legend

  The SyFy channel has released a video that is chock full of info on Superman, clips from the new Krypton series, and Interviews about Superman’s history and what to expect from this new series. It’s narrated by Cameron Cuffe, the actor portraying Superman’s grandfather Seg-el, when he was a young man. Check it out…

Activision Announces CALL OF DUTY: BLACK OPS 4!

Activision Announces CALL OF DUTY: BLACK OPS 4!

  In a move that probably didn’t surprise anyone, Activision has officially announced March 8 on Twitch that they are bringing the next game in the Call of Duty Black Ops franchise to the public.   But it doesn’t appear as though they planned to announce it so soon…or did they?   On March 6, NBA star James Harden was spotted wearing a camo outfit with a hat depicting the Black Ops logo except the…

GOTHAM Review: Plant One On Me

GOTHAM Review: Plant One On Me

I’m not a big fan of this new big Poison Ivy storyline. When she scratches her victims she turns them into plants, from the inside out. And by the end of the episode, she can do it without the scratch.  I mean, what’s her end game? Is she going to kill everyone who hurts plants? Because that’s pretty much everyone.   Maybe she’ll take out the vegans first, then every restaurant that serves salad.…

Huge Nintendo Direct! New SUPER SMASH BROS. Coming This Year to Switch!

Huge Nintendo Direct! New SUPER SMASH BROS. Coming This Year to Switch!

Nintendo has had a huge 2017 with the launch of the Nintendo Switch, a hybrid home console/portable gaming machine that has literally took the world by storm. It has only been a few days out from its 1 year anniversary that Nintendo decided to layout its plans for the next few months with a Nintendo Direct presentation.   The developers had a little cheesey fun with this presentation, though they…

THE FLASH: Flash Time

THE FLASH: Flash Time

This episode was the bomb, literally! There were no Meta-Humans this go round, just a terrorist trying to make a deadly point. She sets off a nuclear bomb in Central City before the flash can stop her. So the entire episode is from Barry’s prospective as he moves super fast to try to figure out how to save the city. Luckily, he’s not the only speedster around; he’s got Jessie Quick and Jay…

BLACK LIGHTNING Recap: Dying Is A Blast!

BLACK LIGHTNING Recap: Dying Is A Blast!

Peter Gambi is a straight up killer y’all. I used to think he was this bland Alfred-wannabe. But Gambi is all mixed up in things. Now he’s conspiring with Lady Eve to bring down Tobias Whale. That’s why she advises him to take out Whale’s number one man, and he does it. Joey Toledo is dead, and Gambi shot him. I guess Peter Gambi has layers. But Jefferson is getting suspicious, and he doesn’t…

MARY POPPINS RETURNS: Teaser Trailer

MARY POPPINS RETURNS: Teaser Trailer

Move over Julie Andrews, Mary Poppins is returning and it ain’t you.  It’s Emily Blunt this time around. And she’ll be singing and dancing to all new songs.  That guy from Hamilton is in it too. The two kids from the first movie are all grown up now and need Mary’s help.  Wait a minute, the new Pooh live-action movie is about the now-grown Christopher Robin needing Pooh’s help.  Coincidence? Or a…

CHRISTOPHER ROBIN: Live-Action Pooh Movie Gets A Teaser trailer

CHRISTOPHER ROBIN: Live-Action Pooh Movie Gets A Teaser trailer

Christopher Robin is a live-action Winnie-The-Pooh Movie.  It takes place when the boy is an overworked adult, just like in ‘HOOK’.  So I guess the vintage version of the cuddly bear will help Christopher Robin put his family first and reawaken his inner child, just like ‘HOOK’.  Check it out for yourself.  And I’m not a fan of this vintage stuffed Pooh that comes to life.  He’s a little creepy.…

NETFLIX’s LOST IN SPACE: FULL TRAILER I was a fan of the original Lost In Space, which started off as a Black & White Sci-Fi drama,  before becoming the colorful and ridiculously campy action-comedy that we all know and love.
