Obi-Wan Kenobi: First Impressions

Let’s get something straight from the start.  Leia was the special one. In case you are wondering what the Disney feminist bait and switch is this time that’s it.  She was always the super extra special one.  Luke meant nothing.  He didn’t deserve any of the accolades he received because Leia should have had them.Anyway, the first five minutes were good. We get a quick scene where we see Younglings being trained, just as Order 66 kicks off.  Then we cut to the Inquisitors arriving...

Yeah, It’s Gonna Suck – Thor: Love and Thunder

The final trailer for Thor: Simp and Blunder dropped.Here it is.Look at it.LOOK AT IT!!! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Go8nTmfrQd8 That. Was. Awful.Thor 4 is what happens if you put a Gamma Male in charge of a barbarian hero.  Kevin Feige’s resentment of the blonde, muscular, popular guy has been on display since Iger stupidly fired Ike Perlmutter and put Kevin Feige in charge of all things Marvel.In Thor, Feige has found the perfect whipping boy for his high school bully frustrations. Ever since Endgame, Thor has become...

Doctor Strange 2 Will Not Break One Billion Dollars

I had predicted that Strange 2 would likely top out between $850 - $950 million. I no longer believe that it will even meet my low-end estimate. Doctor Strange and the Multiverse of Madness fell off a cliff in its third weekend. It pulled in $30 million this weekend. It has now cracked (just barely) the $800 million mark. As its breakeven point was a ludicrous $750 million, it has officially made a profit...probably. But...

The Pedomouse Summer Collection For Children

You think Disney learned its lesson? You’re adorable!Pedomouse is going to use his sweaty, hyper-obese weight to spread the gospel of corruption to every child on the planet. During the month of June. The month named for the Roman goddess of motherhood and family, (how cute). Disney will proudly be selling its LGBTQ rainbow Disney Pride Collection of clothing in all of its Parks and of course online. This savagely overpriced rainbow-themed groomer-friendly clothing is designed for children and fucking INFANTS!!!Don’t...

Webtoon Rumors-Conan The Barbarian

Intriguing if true.Here is the part that isn't a rumor.Tencent or to be more accurate Conan Properties International Is recalling their license from Marvel Comics. My initial reaction was, that’s too bad it was the only and I do mean only Marvel or even mainstream comic I was still reading on the regular.Now I’m sure a few of you were surprised that Marvel wasn’t trying to turn Conan gay or Trans or genderswapped or there was some barbarian lesbian that was...

Doctor Strange Craters On Its Second Week

Doctor Strange and Multiverse of Madness plunged 67% at the box office.  Strongly indicating there is very little repeat business for this movie. While it is still possible that it will crack the $1 billion mark it is now going to be a long uphill slog to do it. More likely it will leg out between $850 and $950 million.Doctor Strange 2 needs (at a guess) $750 million to break even due to its prolonged delay.  It will do that but there is...

The Dark Herald Recommends Doctor Strange and Multiverse of Madness

Doctor Strange (2016) wasn’t the biggest or best of the Marvel movies but it certainly wasn’t at the bottom of their all-time leader board either. It says a lot about the current state of Marvel that I automatically think of the MCU in the past tense.  As if I’m referring to Republic Pictures or Keystone Studios. The Marvel films from five years ago are just as gone as the silent movies. It’s as if the real Marvel left along with Stan Lee.Anyway,...
