Remember when there was Fastlane AND Roadblock? When WWE was really god damn intent on selling the very literal “Road” to WrestleMania? They should have kept that theme up. They could have added a few more of these nothing shows leading into April! WWE Traffic Jam! WWE Fines Doubled Zone! WWE Last Reststop For 62 Miles! I love themes. Give me more driving themed pay-per-views! … Continue reading WWE Fastlane 2021 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
The most famous lesbian couple in the history of cartoons. Like, who’s even #2? And we’re back! When last I left off Sailor Moon S (for Super!), we were introduced to Sailor Uranus & Sailor Neptune, a pair of… VERY close young women, both of whom were on a mission to collect the mystical Talismans, same as the other Sailors. But instead of being close … Continue reading Jab’s Reviews: Sailor Moon S (94-96)
IN A WORLD WHERE SOMETIMES THINGS REALLY, REALLY SUCK, THIS IS… POP-TART QUEST! There’s a reason I am not a professional writer. I mean, I may have a degree in writing. I may have this fancy website and a contribution gig over at 411Mania, but I have never considered myself a “writer”. I’m not making a living off of it, so basically I’m just a schmuck … Continue reading Pop-Tarts: Pretzel Tarts Part 2, #BLM
Am I alone in just not liking Jean Grey? I mean, apparently not, but in my recent Top Heroines of Marvel article, Jean Grey was the most divisive character in the comments. Some said my leaving her out was “tragic” or “outrageous”; others noted she is “meh” or “sucks”. She didn’t make my Top Ten, and honestly would not have made my Top Fifteen; I … Continue reading Top Ten: Heroines of DC Comics
THE MUTANT LIBERATION FRONT: If there’s one thing I love in comics, it’s ridiculous teams of Jobber Villains. The M.L.F. has gotta go down as one of the most ludicrously overloaded villains teams in comics. See, they were created when Rob Liefeld had just debuted on the New Mutants title in its waning years (dozens of crappy Louise Simonson issues had basically killed the book off, necessitating … Continue reading The Mutant Liberation Front (Comics’ Weirdest Teams)
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
For the month of August 2020, PlayStation Plus had two new offerings for its free downloadable games. The first was a remaster of a PS3 Call of Duty game from, like, 2009. Eh, no thanks, Playstation. At that time, I was still playing Call of Duty World War II which you gave away just two months prior and was only three years old. Who is … Continue reading Game Review: Fall Guys
I’ve got two of these lists coming by the time Women’s History Month ends. I bet you can guess what the second might be. (I bet you can also guess, if you’ve ever paid attention to anything I’ve ever written, who #1 will be here. I’m nothing if not consistent!) I’ve long been a big fan of powerful female characters in comics, and not just … Continue reading Top Ten: Heroines of Marvel Comics
The snarling, grim, intense-looking Prophet was Rob Liefeld’s other attempt at a solo hero in his Image franchise, and is a weird combination of Rob Tropes- he has long hair and a weird cloth “boxing helmet” on, just like X-Force ‘s Shatterstar, but he’s also a roided behemoth in an extremely plain costume, so he’s a male power fantasy in addition to being easier to draw. The … Continue reading Jab’s Deep Dive on Image Comics – The LAST Liefeld Chapter!
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
WEEK 8! EIGHT! THAT’S AS MANY AS FOUR PACKETS OF POP-TARTS! AND THAT’S A LOT! THIS IS… POP-TART QUEST! Yeah, that looks good, right? I mean… come on! Chocolatey Caramel? I like 100% of those flavors. This was a lay-up. A fastball over the middle. An empty-netter. A [sports euphemism to be added later]. I thought, “I want a delicious Pop-Tart for this week of … Continue reading Pop-Tart Quest: Chocolatey Caramel
I didn’t watch Raw last night, so I don’t have much to say on it this week. Last week’s episode was ROUGH, and while I guess I’m happy for Lashley to “finally” get the big world title he always felt on the cusp of, I never really cared for the guy. He doesn’t do anything for me, and this feels like just a way to … Continue reading Bret Hart Categories Classic: Steamboat, Batista, more
I don’t know if I will have written and posted the article by the time this review is published, but I recently decided I would do a Top Ten list of my favorite comic book artists. What a foolish endeavor. Within thirty to forty minutes of off-the-top-of-my-head thinking, I had a cut-down list of over fifty names. Following that up with some actual research had … Continue reading Stew’s Reviews: DC Bombshells
ONE-HUNDRED AND ONE DALMATIANS (1961): Written by: Dodie Smith (novel), Bill Peet (solo) This one’s one of the most well-remembered “Middle Period” Disney movies (and the first to be set in the modern day, actually!), owing primarily to its singularly-memorable villain; one so legendary that she’s become completely iconic. Cruella de Vil is probably in the Top Five most-remembered Disney Villains these days, which is saying … Continue reading Jab’s Disney Reviews: 101 Dalmations
