FOR PREVIOUS BUFFY REVIEWS, CLICK HERE! We open up with Buffy Hunting! Ah, back to the comforts of home. Faith, Buffy, Giles, and Willow combine to kill three blue demons. Giles is worried and desperately wants to know what these monsters are. Oh, it turns out Xander is there, too. He was batted away by the beasts and left lying under some rubble. The scene … Continue reading Seriously? A Xander Episode?: A BTVS Retrospective, S3 E13
TREASURE PLANET (2002):Written by: Ron Clements, John Musker, Rob Edwards, Ted Elliot & Terry Rossio The backstory to the making of this movie is more interesting to me than the actual film itself, which is totally forgettable. Clements & Musker, two A-level directors responsible for The Little Mermaid, basically begged the studio for 12 years to make this, being rejected every time. Again and again, they were … Continue reading Jab’s Reviews: Treasure Planet
NOTE: SPOILERS WITHIN FOR BARBIE One-hundred and fifty-plus million dollars. With that figure, Barbie–BARBIE!–has secured the best opening weekend of 2023, something that I doubt any honest person can say they saw coming when the year started. I mean, I sure can’t. I was part of a Guess The Box Office movie draft for the Best Film Ever podcast back at the beginning of the … Continue reading Barbie Review
NOTE: SPOILERS WITHIN FOR OPPENHEIMER Man, Barbenheimer is as real deal. Every Dolby or IMAX screening of both Barbie and Oppenheimer has either sold out or come insanely close to having done so at my local AMC. I just got out of Oppenheimer, where I was lucky to get one solo seat in the IMAX theater (I went by myself because I am charming and … Continue reading Oppenheimer Review
Sean O’Connell joins the Order this episode to discuss Dr. Strange’s trip through the alternate realities of the MCU: it’s the Multiverse Of Madness! For more from Sean click HERE and HERE! Continue reading Episode 71: Dr. Strange In The Multiverse Of Madness
LILO & STITCH (2002):Written by: Chris Sanders & Dean DeBlois -This is a funny one, as it’s an original story, and has a completely unique art style (that of a long-time Disney Animator Chris Sanders, who always drew his stuff that way- one wonders if the others got annoyed at always having to shift his stuff into the “Mainline” style). I have to agree with The … Continue reading Jab’s Reviews: Lilo & Stitch
FOR PREVIOUS BUFFY REVIEWS, CLICK HERE! In two and a half seasons, I have learned something. This show has two different beginnings: “Buffy Is Hunting”, or “At School”. This one is “Buffy Is Hunting”! So Buffy is out hunting, and mom shows up out of nowhere with a snack. How did she know where Buffy was? I’ve never seen Buffy tell her “I’m going out … Continue reading Parents Just Don’t Understand: A BTVS Retrospective, S3 E11-12
Creed ran down the stairwell and burst through the door at the ground floor, nearly falling down once again. Ogre was killed by the thing upstairs but he wasn’t sure if it would still come after him. He raced down the hall, his footsteps echoing loud enough that it almost seemed as if the sound bounced off every wall in the detention center. He made … Continue reading AP Productions: Winghaven #15
Yes, that’s right- it’s time to talk about WEIRD NINJA TURTLE GIRLFRIENDS!! I mean, it’s hard to imagine a piece of fiction about teenage boys without adding their crushes into things, but the various TMNT series have always been rather sparse with that. The young age of the fans (meaning you have to take “EW- GIRLS!” into effect) and the fact that they’re half-human terrapins … Continue reading Jab’s Reviews: TMNT (Lotus Blossom, Mona Lisa & Ninjara)
For the first time since we have started this Our Favorite Artists series, we are looking at a TEAM. And it’s the team that arguably has had more great artists than any other. Arguably! I mean… I would argue it. Anyway, let’s talk X-Men! Stew’s Picks -Marc Silvestri Silvestri is a guy who really grew over time, and while I think he hit his best … Continue reading Our Favorite X-Men Artists
NOTE: SPOILERS WITHIN FOR JOY RIDE! NOT the 2001 Paul Walker, Steve Zahn, and Leelee Sobieski horror movie about a maniac trucker that I have seen just… an irresponsible number of times in my life. (Also, has anyone checked in on Leelee Sobieski in a while? Did she grow up to look exactly like 1990’s Helen Hunt after all?) This 2023 outing of the same … Continue reading Joy Ride Review
FOR PREVIOUS BUFFY REVIEWS, CLICK HERE! Season 3 episode 9 starts off with some Davey-Jones-From-Pirates-Of-The-Caribbean-ass monster choking Buffy out and just… letting Willow and Xander run around to assist her until she can kill it. The three of them talk for a second about Cordelia and Oz, but then pivot to Faith. They agree they need to invite her out more often, for her sake. … Continue reading “I WANT YOU SO BADLY!”: A BTVS Retrospective, S3 E9-10
Raye of the Being Bookish podcast joins the order this week to talk about a movie she has seen way too many times! It’s the second Fox Fantastic Four movie, Rise Of The Silver Surfer! For more from Being Bookish, click HERE! Continue reading Episode 70: Fantastic 4 Rise Of The Silver Surfer
Dan was admitted to the ER immediately and rushed into emergency surgery. It was likely what was left of his arm would have to be amputated. His girlfriend Ashley, meanwhile, sat in the waiting room in a near comatose state. Alysa sat next to her and attempted to console her by holding her hand and talking her through the ordeal. Creed, meanwhile, paced around the … Continue reading AP Productions: Winghaven #14
NOTE: SPOILERS WITHIN FOR NIMONA! It has been a phenomenal year for animated movies, and that is without my having seen Super Mario Brothers or Elemental yet! As of this writing, the aforementioned Super Mario Brothers is the highest grossing movie of the year. Elemental came out the same weekend as The Flash, came in second place at the box office to it, then proved … Continue reading Nimona Review
