Episode 17: Sin City

The night is dark like a… really dark thing.

Okay, I’m not good at the Sin City thing.

But Stew and Ken from the ODPH have a good time looking back at this mid-2000’s hit!

Entertainment Rex: November 2021 Part 2

After seeing how close I had come by October, I knew that I’d definitely get 200 movies in by the end of 2021 unless something truly went awry. So then came the next thought… could I do it by the end of November? And that led me on a film spree where I averaged about a movie per day, so let’s get the heck into … Continue reading Entertainment Rex: November 2021 Part 2

The Top 100 Comics Of A Lifetime: #55-51

We have hit the halfway mark of this list as of this entry, having gotten through the bottom 50 comics on Wizard’s list of the Greatest Comics Single Issues From 1979-2006. Which, back in 2006, was considered a comic fan’s lifetime. We were all a lot younger then, folks. I was TWENTY-SIX. God! Was my lifetime supposed to be twenty-six years. Wizard did not have … Continue reading The Top 100 Comics Of A Lifetime: #55-51

Top Ten: Generation Five Pokemon

After years and years of playing Pokemon, Generation 5 is the time when things finally started to change. With Generation 5 came improved Wi-Fi capabilities and a better device, the Nintendo 3DS (to be clear, Black and White were not 3DS games, but the 3DS’ backwards compatibility meant they could be played on it). And with those, came more efficient online play. That’s right, Geeration … Continue reading Top Ten: Generation Five Pokemon

Top Ten: Favorite Comic Villains

In a lot of forms of media, the antagonists are every bit as gripping–if not more so!–than the heroes themselves. Look no further than professional wrestling. A lot of wrestling stories are centered around a babyface’s trials and tribulations against the heels that seek to destroy him. But so often, it’s the heels who really shine. Whether that’s because they get to let a bit … Continue reading Top Ten: Favorite Comic Villains

Stew’s Reviews: Superboy by Geoff Johns

Several weeks I ago I was critical of the Lex Luthor Unauthorized Biography comic, and ever since I reviewed it, I was hoping to swing back around and review another book I read once that also touches a bit on Lex Luthor’s home life and childhood. You know what? This seems like as good of a time as any! TITLE: Superboy: The Boy of Steel … Continue reading Stew’s Reviews: Superboy by Geoff Johns

Entertainment Rex: November 2021

This is… very quickly becoming my “Here’s my recent movie reviews” post, and I am okay with that. When I started Entertainment Rex this year, the principle was that I’d discuss everything I watched, played, read, and otherwise enjoyed in the last half of a month. But I have been on an absolute movie TEAR of late, and it’s making it hard to do much … Continue reading Entertainment Rex: November 2021

Top Ten: TV Theme Songs (By THE MAGIC NUMBER IS 3!)

I want to start this off with a shout-out to SWO Productions for giving me the opportunity to contribute to this great challenge (don’t forget to vote for this as the best of these four Top 10 lists, because it will be). My name is Kalvin and you can find me weekly on The Magic Number Is 3. Now that we’ve got the plugs and … Continue reading Top Ten: TV Theme Songs (By THE MAGIC NUMBER IS 3!)

The Top 100 Comics Of A Lifetime, #60-56

We are ALMOST TO THE HALFWAY POINT! Keep making the climb with me, everyone! The last two segments of this list, covering #70-61, were pretty damn solid and full of entertaining books. Are we hitting a point where things won’t really feel questionable anymore? Let’s see! (And yes, I, too, question that what I said might just be foreshadowing) And to keep up on this … Continue reading The Top 100 Comics Of A Lifetime, #60-56

Top Ten: Generation Four Pokemon

So I bought a Nintendo Switch. And yeah, it SEEMS like a good idea. After all… there are so many good games, right? Marvel Ultimate Alliance 3! That Zelda one that everyone was on about! Something about Super Mario’s hat! And another Smash Brawl Melee, probably! So many games. But nah. I really only bought the Switch for one reason: I’m all-in on hoping for … Continue reading Top Ten: Generation Four Pokemon

Pop-Tart Quest: Chocolatey Salted Caramel

POP-TART QUEST ISN’T RUNNING OUT OF IDEAS! POP-TARTS IS RUNNING OUT OF IDEAS! YOU’RE RUNNING OUT OF IDEAS! THIS WHOLE DAMN COURT IS RUNNING OUT OF IDEAS! THIS IS… POP-TART QUEST! Huh? Wait. Didn’t we…? Haven’t we been here before? We’ve definitely done this before, Pop-Tarts! You can’t just throw “salted” into the title and expect an entirely new kind of Tart! This is just … Continue reading Pop-Tart Quest: Chocolatey Salted Caramel
