I’ve recently gone on the record as stating that I don’t think George R. R. Martin will ever finish A Song of Ice and Fire. The last book was released eleven years ago. He’s got two books to go and Gary from Nerdrotic makes a pretty compelling argument for him not being even halfway done with the next one. Back in 2015 all of the show’s fans were saying that George RR Martin is a better author than JRR Tolkien and...
He does a quick review of Turning Red. My favorite bit was his pitch for a sequel called Going Bananas. All the men in a boy's family are under a curse. When they turn 12 they start turning into giant, long, hard bananas that will freeze stiff if they are near a girl in a swimsuit. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9BRslflm1gE
UPDATE: The Florida House of Representatives has passed the repeal of Reedy Creek. It now goes to Governor DeSantis who is expected to sign it. Disney stock price has dropped again. Ron DeSantis has called for a special session of the Florida legislature. There are a few things that are going to be presented at it but the one that everyone is talking about is dissolving all special tax districts created before 1969. That would cover the Reedy Creek Improvement District, better...
Ezra could you please give me a break from this? I'd like to write about something else for a while. From Hollywood Reporter, please don't give them a click. "Ezra Miller was arrested Tuesday morning on suspicion of second-degree assault, according to the Hawaii Island Police Department. Around 1:30 a.m., Miller was taken into custody after an incident at a residence in Pāhoa on the Big Island, police said. The alleged assault occurred at a get-together at a private residence. Miller, according to...
Are you ready for some derivative characters?! If you are watching a Marvel property you better be. Thor Love and Thunder had a teaser trailer drop. Here it is. Look at it. LOOK AT IT!!! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tgB1wUcmbbw That. Was. Awful. The kindest words I’ve heard about it from Woke Marvel’s biggest fans are, “I don’t hate it.” I can’t say I do either but there is nothing there I want to watch. The thrust of the story is that Thor is trying to find himself. Forgive me for stating the obvious...
If you were growing up in the Seventies and had been cursed with a love of science fiction, your battle cry was, ‘you get what you get and you don’t get upset.’ There just wasn’t much to be had for most of that decade. Consequently, what little was available tended to make a strong impression. If you were lucky, you lived someplace where a UHF station would have a dedicated afternoon movie slot. The one in my neck of the woods did. However, the programming...
FIRST MoonKnight It took three episodes until the mask dropped completely. The first episode actually looked good. The second started to reveal a few cracks in the façade. Then came the third episode and, yep, it’s a Marvel TV show. Chief Creative Officer and Mega-Gamma Boss Kevin Feige is now making his impact truly felt. Marvel Comics for the first time in its history failed to put a graphic novel in the top 750 of Bookscan. No Hulk, no Captain America, no Ironman, and no freaking Spiderman. Nothing. This...
Thunderbirds didn’t do what the Andersons wanted it to do for them, but it did do what it needed to. Its consistently high production quality put them on the map. The right people were willing to return their calls. And by the right people, I mean the money. It was time for them to make shows that were built around filming humans. The Andersons’ decided they needed to change the name of their company when they finally achieved their dream of moving into live-action production. The...
Influencer, Celebrity YouTuber, and queen of the Apple shills iJustine was rushed from hospital to hospital last Thursday night having been diagnosed with a Brachial embulism. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hzE0eLu6bsw Justine Ezarik Is 38 years old, has a six percent body fat, and the fitness regime of a California Blonde. She has no family history of blood clots that I could find. No co-morbidities in general. And Brachial Thrombosis is rare enough as it is anyway. She only had one risk factor that I know of. I’m...
From my first piece in this series. “I have become quite a fan of Alex Macris’ Ascendant Star Spangled Squadron If you aren’t familiar with it, then smash the link above and become familiar with it. This webtoon is actually doing what up to now, I didn’t anybody would be doing. Creating new superheroes based on the heroic archetypes I’ve been writing about on this blog. Before I go any further let me make clear that Alex Marcris never read any of my articles on this...
