NFL Films Presents: A BTVS Retrospective, S3 E7-8

FOR PREVIOUS BUFFY REVIEWS, CLICK HERE! We don’t really OPEN with Buffy, Faith, and Giles out hunting–there is an opening sequence of no import with the gang at The Bronze–but it is the first relevant thing that happens. Giles just chills out while his two slayers go to town, and… why do the vampires always leave him alone when he is out with them? Isn’t he … Continue reading NFL Films Presents: A BTVS Retrospective, S3 E7-8

Pop-Tart Quest: Gingerbread

MERRY CHRISTMAS! Wait, is that… this isn’t that holiday, is it? Well, whatever; I found a store that was recently selling this flavor of Pop-Tarts, and while they feel like a holdover from the holiday season several months ago at this point, they are the Tarts I have for this holiday! (Yes, these were definitely held onto for a while; this box expires THIS MONTH … Continue reading Pop-Tart Quest: Gingerbread

Stew’s Reviews: The Child Within

I have had a cold for 14 days. It’s not great! Five days ago, I had completely lost my voice, but luckily I regained enough of it to be able to semi-successfully podcast last night. But we recorded essentially two whole shows, and the end of the night, I was done. Can’t wait to listen to those segments and see how abominable I sounded. Especially … Continue reading Stew’s Reviews: The Child Within

The Chosen, Chapter 7

CHAPTER 7: Four Years Ago… Dwight Quinn was reluctant to meet his lifetime best friend, Beau Grant. Even if they had arranged to get together at their favorite bar—Mulligan’s Green, the sports-themed watering hole where they’d been going ever since they turned twenty-one during their days at the University of Houston—nothing felt like it used to be now.  They had spent the first thirty-seven years … Continue reading The Chosen, Chapter 7

Wait, Xander AND Willow Are The Worst? A BTVS Retrospective, S3, E5-6

FOR PREVIOUS BUFFY REVIEWS, CLICK HERE! It’s off to SunnyDale High School where we start this episode with our main characters sitting around talking about Homecoming. So you know what that means! It’s still way too early in the year for sunset to be 5:30, god damn it! (Unless Homecoming is in January or something) Scott has not asked Buffy to Homecoming yet, setting up … Continue reading Wait, Xander AND Willow Are The Worst? A BTVS Retrospective, S3, E5-6

Stan Lee (DisneyPlus) Review

As I sit here in the basement of my house where I do most of my writing, movie watching, gaming, and… everything I guess… (Don’t judge; it’s cooler down here, and my wife and I have very differing ideas on how warm a house needs to be) …I realize I am surrounded by comics and comic memorabilia. Art prints on the wall behind me. Framed … Continue reading Stan Lee (DisneyPlus) Review

Brooklyn 45 Review

NOTE: This article will contain light spoilers for Brooklyn 45 It has been a somewhat rough year for Shudder exclusives/originals. To this point in the year, I only have two of their movies ranking even somewhat highly for me on my 2023 New Releases ranking. There is, of course, Skinamarink, which I reviewed a few months ago. And then there is the batshit crazy Spoonful … Continue reading Brooklyn 45 Review

MONSTER FIGHTS! A BTVS Retrospective, S3, E3-4

FOR PREVIOUS BUFFY REVIEWS, CLICK HERE! Moving along through season three of Buffy The Vampire Slayer, we start off episode three with Willow, Oz, Cordelia, and Xander all heading out of school and discussing how, as seniors, they finally get to have lunch off-campus. Where is off campus? In the yard of the school. So there you go, I guess. Anyway, Buffy has set up … Continue reading MONSTER FIGHTS! A BTVS Retrospective, S3, E3-4

Komi Can’t Communicate Volume 6

Oh man, here we go with Volume 6 of Komi Can’t Communicate, the single most interesting volume to me because it was the one that was seemingly out of print or something FOREVER. It is the reason my initial read through of this series got held up. It took me months to find this one anywhere, even online. When I walked into Barnes & Noble … Continue reading Komi Can’t Communicate Volume 6
