Entertainment Rex: May 2021

Welcome back to Entertainment Rex, your twice monthly article series where I let you know what fun is out there to be had. Twice monthly is a good schedule. It’s my favorite way to schedule. Podcasts? Twice a month. Entertainment Rex? Twice a month? Stew’s Reviews? Twice a month! Everything is two times per month. It’s very symmetrical that way. I don’t really have an … Continue reading Entertainment Rex: May 2021

Ranking My Excitement On The New MCU Trailer

If there’s one thing the MCU is undeniably good for, it’s making me think “Boy, I hope I don’t die before _____”. For years, it was “Boy, I hope I don’t die before we resolve all this Thanos stuff in the MCU!”. And I didn’t! It was great. But I also had nothing left to look forward to except a pandemic. Well today, Kevin Feige, … Continue reading Ranking My Excitement On The New MCU Trailer

Classic Review: The Big Sick

Marvel gifted us with a trailer for Shang-Chi this week in what appears to have been a surprise release given the lead actor, Simu Liu’s, frankly adorable reaction on Twitter. It’s admittedly a pretty rad trailer. I had not been too stoked for a Shang Chi movie for a few reasons. First of all, he’s a character I have barely any comics experience with. Secondly, … Continue reading Classic Review: The Big Sick

SWO Draft: Best Movie Soundtracks!

This month’s draft was… NOT my forte. But I gave it the old college try anyway! When I got together with this month’s guests–Pint O Comics, So Wizard, and Flicks X-Rayed–to discuss our next draft, we ultimately settled on Best Movie Soundtracks. Music remains not really my best genre. But I do like movies, and I know which ones kind of make me bop along, … Continue reading SWO Draft: Best Movie Soundtracks!

Zack Snyder’s Justice League Review

Well, it turns out I was wrong. When the long-awaited Snyder Cut was finally announced, but we were also told it would take months to release and cost almost an additional one hundred million dollars, I was convinced that this movie was essentially going to be a do-over. I thought for sure the Snyder “cut” never existed; they were just going to release an almost … Continue reading Zack Snyder’s Justice League Review

Entertainment Rex: March 2021

It’s the Ides of March! I don’t… I don’t know what that means. Something to do with Julius Caesar being assassinated, but it isn’t called that BECAUSE of it. The Ides were a thing before he died. It’s like… if I was assassinated on Christmas, Christmas wouldn’t be famous for THAT. (That got dark fast this article…) Wasn’t he warned, “beware the Ides of March”? … Continue reading Entertainment Rex: March 2021

Movie Review: Terminator Dark Fate

I had given up on Terminator flicks a long time ago. The last Terminator movie I saw was the third entry in the series. I never bothered with Salvation or Genisys because they both looked pretty terrible, and it seemed as though the franchise was just churning out properties to cash in on a nostalgia market. The magic of the original and its first sequel … Continue reading Movie Review: Terminator Dark Fate

Draft: Best Comedies Post-2000

It’s draft time yet again, where the SWO partners with some other fantastic independent talent to see who can make the subjectively best list of a random pop culture topic! This week, I pulled in our friends Liz from the Nerdy Bitches podcast, Ken from the Ocho Duro Parley Hour, and Marquee Mark from So Wizard podcast. We spitballed some idea before finally settling on … Continue reading Draft: Best Comedies Post-2000

Top Ten: DC Comics Films

Hey, it’s Snyder Month! Regardless of how you or I feel about the upcoming Snyder Cut, it’s well on its way, and it will be hitting HBO Max on 3/18/21. And there has been a segment of fans who have been rabidly awaiting this moment in pop culture history. Between those fans and the morbid curiosity of others who want to see what the big … Continue reading Top Ten: DC Comics Films
