The Bad Welcome back to our two part Agents of SHIELD retrospective. If you missed part 1 (and why would you read the second part before the first), I went over some of the things I loved about the series. As you probably figured out, I’ll be talking about the worst aspects of the series in this part, which will likely earn a lot of … Continue reading Agents of SHIELD Retrospect – Part 2
Okay. Okay, okay. I am more calm than I was when I wrote that review *checks clock* 15 minutes ago. Let’s look at this more rationally and critically. Guys, this movie is truly amazing. Just… I’m still floored. I want to turn around and go watch it again. Okay, it turns out I am really bad at objectivity. I am also saying “Okay” a LOT. … Continue reading Shang-Chi And The Legend Of The Ten Rings Review
BEAUTY AND THE BEAST (1991): Written by: Gabrielle-Suzanne Barbot de Villeneuve (original story), Jeanne-Marie Le Prince de Beaumont (adaptation novel that heavily influenced this), Linda Woolverton, Brenda Chapman, Burny Mattinson, Brian Pimental, Joe Ranft, Kelly Asbury, Chris Sanders, Kevin Harkey, Bruce Woodside, Tom Ellery, Robert Lence & Roger Allers The Disney Animated Canon features some spectacular works of art, and many excel at various things that … Continue reading Jab’s Disney Reviews: Beauty and The Beast
SAILOR MOON R- THE MOVIE:Yes, they made three movies for the Sailor Moon franchise. The animation is of course glorious compared to anything you’d see in the cartoon, with bodies having both shading AND highlights, and the frame-rate going up a bit, too, with lots of glamorous shots and better posing than the “straight-on” stuff from a more mundane TV episode. The three middle seasons, Sailor Moon R, S and SuperS, … Continue reading Jab’s Reviews: Sailor Moon R – The Movie
What timing! I saw Free Guy the same day as the Thor: Ragnarok episode of my podcast was released! It’s TaikaMania running wild, brother! Every so often I fall harmlessly but accidentally into kismet. For just the fourth time since COVID started (wait… fourth? Let me check. The Conjuring, this, Black Widow, A Quiet Place 2… yep, fourth) I went to the cinema, and it … Continue reading Free Guy Review
I’m not crazy, okay? Just… don’t forget that as we go on here. I mean, I’m nuts for Jason Movies, but that’s allowable, right? They are good-to-great movies! Well… okay-to-great. All right, they are sucky-to-great. I know, I know. Jason Goes To Hell still exists. More on that one later, though, because it’s about to be my Exception-That-Proves-The-Rule movie. (I have actually always hated that … Continue reading Thirteen The Fridayth: Multiple Jasons Theory!
This one’s going to be quick, so bear with me. I’m SUPPOSED to be packing for Cancun right now. By the time you read this, I’ll at least be in the air. It’s hard to believe SWO Productions is already coming up on ten months’ of existence! Ten months so far of articles and podcasts and just general futzing around. Wow. Will I do something … Continue reading Entertainment Rex: July part 2
THE GREAT MOUSE DETECTIVE (1986) Written by: Eve Titus (original books), Vance Gerry, Peter Young, Steve Ulett, John Musker & Ron Clements The whole concept behind this one is a bit odd, and it’s based off of some children’s book I’ve never heard of- basically mouse versions of Sherlock Holmes & Watson, and a rat Moriarty. And Basil lives right below Sherlock himself. God bless Public … Continue reading Jab’s Disney Reviews: The Great Mouse Detective
I’m wrestling with whether or not to get PlayStation Now. I feel like… I’m already paying for PS Plus, which is its own $60/month thing. Do I really need Now? It looks like a bulk of the games on Now end up becoming Plus giveaways as it is. But then… Fallout New Vegas is on Now, and I really kind of want to replay that. … Continue reading Entertainment Rex: July 2021
THE BLACK CAULDRON (1985): Written by: Lloyd Alexander (Original Book Series), Ted Berman, Vance Gerry, Joe Hale, David Jonas, Roy Morita, Richard Rich, Art Stevens, Al Wilson & Peter Young This is a controversial one for many reasons. It basically Disney-fies a semi-popular children’s novel (The Chronicles of Prydain, which noted Webcomic author Randy Milholland of Something Positive fame REALLY enjoys- he’s said some great stuff about it), … Continue reading Jab’s Disney Reviews: The Black Cauldron
I must have watched The Naked Gun 33 1/3: The Final Insult about a hundred times as a kid. The third entry in the Naked Gun trilogy came out when I was thirteen years old, so it was obviously pretty much targeted directly at me. Juvenile jokes and Anna Nicole Smith in lingerie; what more could a kid want? I’m relatively sure I’d never even … Continue reading Classic Movie Review: The Naked Gun
Sure, maybe this isn’t thematic for November, BUT it dawned on me that we are nearing not just the end of the year, but the end of the DECADE! The 2010’s are rapidly leaving us, and who knows what the 2020’s have in mind? Depending on whether you say “Twenty-twenties” or “Two-thousand-twenties”, they may bring us 100% more Barbara Walters and Hugh Downs! Am… am … Continue reading Top Ten: Non-Comic Book Movies of the 2010’s

My wife wants us to paint our bathroom. I sometimes worry that she has forgotten who she married. There is nothing in the world I would rather do than nothing. Every so often she has grand designs on some project or another. She’ll ask “Do you want to [do a thing I don’t want to do] today?” as if she doesn’t know the answer. (The … Continue reading Entertainment Rex: June 2021 part 2
THE FOX AND THE HOUND (1981): Written by: Daniel P. Mannix (original novel), Ted Berman, Larry Clemmons, David Michener, Peter Young & Burny Mattinson Another one based off of a forgotten novel (with many changes- initially Tod & Copper didn’t know each other; Chief also dies in the novel), this one wasn’t a major hit, but has a cult following, largely due to the bittersweet nature … Continue reading Jab’s Disney Reviews: The Fox & The Hound
