FOR PREVIOUS BUFFY REVIEWS, CLICK HERE! As we near the end of season one, we are in the throes of some very important goings-on… like the SunnyDale High School Talent Show! We start off with more picking on Cordelia as we see her trying to sing, but being abjectly terrible at it. For some reason, Giles is hosting the talent show, and does this school … Continue reading Xander Is The Worst: A BtVS Retrospective, Eps 9-10
NOTE: SPOILERS WITHIN FOR CREED 3 There are a LOT of Rocky movies! There are at least… nine? Right? Five in the original run. Rocky Balboa. Then the three Creed movies. Am I missing any? I feel like I’m missing one more between Rocky V and the first Creed movie. Maybe I’m confusing them with the Rambo movies they started making again in the 2000’s, … Continue reading Creed 3 Review
FOR PREVIOUS BUFFY REVIEWS, CLICK HERE! Oh, episode 7 is called “Angel”, so I’m expecting some answers I already know (because I’m not oblivious to pop culture) to all the questions I have and don’t really care about. But you know what? The episode is not called “Xander”, so we’ll call it a win! Oh man, The Master is going to send The Three after … Continue reading Xander Is The Pits: A BTVS Retrospective, Episodes 7-8
Robert from Crooked Table Productions is back in the Order, and you know we love both Roberts and things with Productions in their name! It’s time to look at the Ghost In The Shell, the anime original! No Scarlett Johansson here!

Well, as of Ant-Man & The Wasp: Quantumania, we are officially into Phase Five of the Marvel Cinematic Universe, and the highly divisive Phase Four is finally and fully in our rear-view mirror. With the unprecedented success of, and overall affection for, the MCU’s efforts through its first three phases, a backslide in Phase Four was inevitable. Though exactly how far the slide regressed the … Continue reading MCU Phase 4: Ups And Downs
I really just… can’t with modern day Marvel or DC. And that’s really frustrating. In an era where independent comics are proving they are capable of anything and everything–of telling any kind of story under the sun, from realistic coming-of-age dramas to sprawling sci-fi space operas–you know what I still want? Capes. I’ve grown up on Marvel and DC, and for me, comic books also … Continue reading Stew’s Reviews: Radiant Black volume 1
Episode 5 This episode starts off and makes me angry right angry. Every time Buffy kills a vamp, they disintegrate, right? I mean, one the one hand, I get that, but it doesn’t ALWAYS make sense. Like… why would freshly turned vampires turn to dust? Their bodies are’t old and rotted. Whatever, that’s not the point. This vampire leaves behind a ring when he dies. … Continue reading I Hate Xander: A Buffy The Vampire Slayer Retrospective, Episodes 5-6
Matt from the Funvee Podcast joins the Order this episode to talk that guy who speaks to fish, and DC’s attempt to reinvigorate him! Continue reading Episode 55: Aquaman
We are back with more Komi, who is incapable of communication! I will say now that I’ve finished volume 3 and am getting ready to write this, I am remembering why I started digging this series. Sure, volume 1 was lackluster and consisted almost entirely of build, but volumes 2 and 3 have a lot more antics going on. The situational humor and the depth … Continue reading Komi Can’t Communicate Volume 3
In today’s main event: Stew Vs Sciatica! February has been a rough month for ya boy. I caught my first sickness I’ve had in other 3+ years with a relatively minor cold to start the month. But THEN… I cough or sneezed my back out of place, and I was laid up like the elderly man I am for a few days. Almost two weeks … Continue reading Elimination Chamber 2023 Review
EPISODE 3 We’re back with more of my first ever watch of Buffy The Vampire Slayer! Let’s see how the first pair of non-pilot episodes looked! The episode starts off very cheerleader heavy. Buffy has joined the Sunnydale cheerleading squad (well, she is signed up for tryouts, and for that, they already give you the outfit, apparently). Giles disapproves because his entire character is “Giles … Continue reading Buffy The Vampire Slayer Episodes 3-4
We are back to getting through Stew’s many volumes of a manga series he started buying, but stopped reading way too long ago: Komi Can’t Communicate! In volume one, we started meeting the core cast of characters, including the titular Komi, who has such direly extreme social anxiety that she can not speak in front of others. But she can write! Or even make short … Continue reading Stew’s Series Reviews: Komi Can’t Communicate Volume 2
Look, Pop-Tarts, you have officially gone too far. I’ve stood by you through a lot of flavors. A LOT at this point. You’ve given us some divine treats and some absolutely putrid tarts. I see that you are willing to throw anything and everything at the wall in order to see what will drive sales. And I respect that! You are a creative force; I … Continue reading Pop-Tart Quest: Snickerdoodles
NOTE: SPOILERS FOR THE FABELMANS! As of this writing, we are one month away from the 95th Academy Awards, and now that I have seen The Fabelmans, I have seen seven of the ten Best Picture nominees. For reference, I have decided to go back a few years and see how I’ve compared! For the 94th edition of the awards, I STILL have not seen … Continue reading The Fabelmans Review
I may have misnumbered my episodes. Last episode saw us go from #52 to #54. Whoops! Human error, folks! I could edit the episode titles, but I prefer to let my mistakes outlive me. ANYWAY, this episode, the guys from the Culture Shocked podcast join the order to discuss the notoriously bad X-Men Origins – Wolverine, and Stew has now covered all three movies in … Continue reading Episode 53(?): X-Men Origins – Wolverine
