With having now watched Nausicaa Of The Valley Of The Wind, I am now up to seven Hayao Miyazaki films in my mental catalogue. Which is to say: a fair amount, but not nearly enough! Nausicaa is a strange one. It technically pre-dates Studio Ghibli, but it is often shown at Ghibli based viewings and festivals. It’s the pre-cursor to the studio, and the film … Continue reading NausicaA Of The Valley Of The Wind Review
I was first introduced to the world of Korean and Japanese pop and rap music in the mid-2000’s. I was dating a girl who was enamored of the stuff, and her iPod was loaded with songs from artists like m-flo, Se7en, BoA, Namie Amuro, and more. Whenever we went places, that was what we listened to, like, 90% of the time. That or Tenacious D. … Continue reading K-Pop Demon Hunters Review
I never saw my first Predator movie until after the COVID-19 pandemic started. When I found myself with more time at home during that worldwide crisis, I decided to start plowing through movies I had never seen before (and that’s a hobby for me that has continued ever since). Early on in that rush, I watched the 1987 Arnold Schwarzenegger action classic, Predator. I really … Continue reading Predator: Killer Of Killers Review

It was just recently that I came home from DisneyWorld and decided to review The Princess & The Frog in the wake of my trip. Tiana and her story seemed to be everywhere down there, and I realized I would simply have to check that movie out for the first time when I got home. Already being in a Disney kind of mood, it wasn’t … Continue reading Lilo & Stitch (2002) Review
It’s been less than a week since I returned from DisneyWorld. It was a great vacation, and easily the best of the three times in my life I have visited the theme park. Every trip has its ups and downs, but this was overall a fantastic voyage away from home for a week, and I’d definitely recommend visiting The Happiest Place On Earth if you … Continue reading The Princess & The Frog Review
No matter how many movies I watch for the very first time ever in my life–including movies that it feels like everyone on Earth has watched but me–there are always so many more to get through! Add in to that that I am THE Comic Book Movie Guy! I have been reading comics my entire life, and I’ve long been fascinated with Hollywood’s ability to … Continue reading The Incredibles 1 And 2 Review!
Despite having seen 111 new release movies in 2024, there were a frustrating amount of movies I wanted to see but did not get around to for some reason. I felt comfortable when completing my Worst Of and Best of lists that I had seen more than enough to do recommendations, but there were still a solid handful (or two) of flicks I still knew … Continue reading Flow Review

Someday, I hope to meet a very specific 4% of professional movie critics. You see, Hayao Miyazaki’s Spirited Away is my go-to movie for why Rotten Tomatoes sometimes baffles my mind. It stands, as of this writing, at a 96% on the critical aggregate website. And I swear that is down from a 97% the last time I looked it up! Anyway, if you understand … Continue reading The Boy And The Heron Review
